description	Interactive onboarding wizard for the 33 external integrations the pipeline supports - probes all (`figma`, `refero`, `preview`, `storybook`, `chromatic`, `graphify`, `pinterest`, `claude-design`, `paper-design`, `pencil-dev`, `21st-dev`, `magic-patterns`, `lazyweb`, `mobbin`, `slack`, `discord`, `linear`, `jira`, `notion`, `lottie`, `rive`, `framer`, `penpot`, `webflow`, `v0-dev`, `plasmic`, `builder-io`, `launchdarkly`, `statsig`, `growthbook`, `usertesting`, `maze`, `hotjar`), recommends based on project type, walks the user through setup (auto-run MCP install or copy-command fallback), writes results to `STATE.md <connections>`. Use after `{{command_prefix}}new-project` or whenever the user wants to add, inspect, or skip a connection. Re-runnable anytime. Activates for requests involving setting up external integrations, probing Figma or preview or storybook, or onboarding tools.

{{command_prefix}}connections

Interactive onboarding for the 33 external integrations the pipeline supports. Replaces "probe silently at scan entry and hope the user noticed" with an explicit "here is what can plug in, here is how."

Canonical per-connection specs live in ../../connections/<name>.md (one file per integration). The capability matrix + probe-pattern spec live in ../../connections/connections.md. This skill is the user-facing front end for those specs.

For the 33 probe scripts (MCP + HTTP + CLI + file probes), bucket categorization, per-connection setup screen, auto-run eligibility matrix, value-prop one-liners, and STATE.md / config.json write contracts, see ./connections-onboarding.md. For the cross-skill probe pattern + connection-handshake summary, see ../../reference/shared-preamble.md#connection-handshake-summary. For the cross-skill output discipline, see ../../reference/shared-preamble.md#output-contract-reminders.

Invocation Modes

Command	Behavior
{{command_prefix}}connections	Interactive wizard (default). Probes all, shows summary, asks what to configure.
{{command_prefix}}connections list	Read-only table. Probes all, writes STATE.md, no prompts, exits.
{{command_prefix}}connections <name>	Jump straight to setup for one connection (e.g. {{command_prefix}}connections figma).
{{command_prefix}}connections --auto	CI mode. Probes, writes STATE.md, no prompts, no install attempts.

---

State Integration

1. Read .design/STATE.md - if missing, that's fine; this skill does not require a pipeline run.
2. Read .design/config.json - if missing, use defaults. If connections_onboarding block is present with pending_verification, this is a resume - see Step 6.
3. Read connections.skip[] from config - never re-prompt for skipped connections.
4. Update last_checkpoint in STATE.md at skill exit if STATE.md exists.

---

Workflow

1. Probe all 33 connections - run every probe script per ./connections-onboarding.md#step-1--probe-all-33-connections. MCP probes use ToolSearch first; HTTP / CLI / file probes follow non-MCP patterns. Merge results into STATE.md <connections> with the three-value schema (available | unavailable | not_configured) - never add new values.
2. Categorize + build summary - bucket each probe result (available / recommended / optional / skipped / unavailable) using project-hint detection. Detail + recommendation mapping: ./connections-onboarding.md#step-2--bucket-categorization.
3. Print summary table - show buckets + value-prop one-liners (verbatim from ./connections-onboarding.md#step-3--summary-table).
4. Route by mode - list / --auto exits after summary; <name> jumps straight to Step 5; default mode opens an AskUserQuestion (configure recommended / pick one by one / configure all optional / re-check specific / exit). Routing detail: ./connections-onboarding.md#step-4--route-by-mode.
5. Per-connection setup screen - for each target: read connections/<name>.md, present the setup screen, AskUserQuestion (run now / copy-paste / skip / never ask). Auto-run only if reversible (see eligibility matrix). On success: append name to connections_onboarding.pending_verification[]. Detail: ./connections-onboarding.md#step-5--per-connection-setup-screen.
6. Verification pass - re-probe every name in pending_verification[]. Available → remove. not_configured → leave (needs session restart). unavailable → leave + note OAuth needed. Print "Setup complete" summary. Detail: ./connections-onboarding.md#step-6--verification-pass.

If .design/config.json > connections_onboarding.pending_verification[] is non-empty at entry → enter resume flow: run Step 6 immediately; if clean, exit; otherwise fall through to Step 3. Detail: ./connections-onboarding.md#resumability.

Do Not

Per ./connections-onboarding.md#do-not:

• Never run npm install -g globals automatically.
• Never write to ~/.bashrc, ~/.zshrc, or shell RC files.
• Never run claude mcp add without explicit "Run install command now" confirmation.
• Never auto-restart the Claude Code session.
• Never re-prompt for names in connections.skip[].
• Never overwrite existing <connections> entries that this skill did not probe - merge only.

Output

End every invocation with:
