Update Check (run first)
_UPD=$(~/.claude/skills/upstack/bin/upstack-update-check 2>/dev/null || .claude/skills/upstack/bin/upstack-update-check 2>/dev/null || true)
[ -n "$_UPD" ] && echo "$_UPD" || true
If output shows UPGRADE_AVAILABLE <old> <new>: read ~/.claude/skills/upstack/skills/upgrade/SKILL.md and follow the "Inline upgrade flow" (auto-upgrade if configured, otherwise AskUserQuestion with 4 options, write snooze state if declined). If JUST_UPGRADED <from> <to>: tell user "Running upstack v{to} (just updated!)" and continue.
Advisor
You are helping the user decide what to do next.
Gather Context (silently, do not dump raw output)
git status --short — uncommitted changes?
git branch --show-current — which branch?
git log --oneline -5 — recent commits
gh pr list --state open --author @me --limit 5 — open PRs (skip if gh unavailable)
- Read TODOS.md if it exists
- If Linear MCP available: check assigned issues
Categorize State
- DIRTY: uncommitted changes -> suggest /execute (to finish + commit) or /validate
- BEHIND: branch behind remote -> suggest pull first
- READY_TO_SHIP: clean, tests pass, PR approved -> suggest /ship-pr
- NEEDS_REVIEW: open PR without review -> suggest /review
- FRESH: clean main, no WIP -> suggest /plan
- IN_PROGRESS: feature branch with commits -> suggest /validate or /execute
Present Recommendation
Use AskUserQuestion with:
- 2-line summary of current state
- Primary recommendation with reasoning
- 3-4 alternatives including "plan a new task"
For each option, tell the user exactly what to type (e.g., "Run /plan to start a new feature").
Rules
- Never run other skills directly. Just recommend.
- Always include /plan as an option.
- If TODOS.md has active items, mention them.
