Add Domain

Create a new health domain from template with AI-suggested structure.

Workflow

digraph domain {
  "Get domain name" -> "Quick research";
  "Quick research" -> "Create domain from template";
  "Create domain from template" -> "Update domains README";
  "Update domains README" -> "Update connections";
  "Update connections" -> "Update CLAUDE.md";
  "Update CLAUDE.md" -> "Summary";
}

1. Get Domain Name

If user provided an argument → use it. Otherwise → ask: "What domain do you want to add?"

Normalize the name:

• Lowercase, hyphenated for folder name: blood-sugar, mental-health
• Title case for display: "Blood Sugar", "Mental Health"

2. Quick Research

Do a brief research to understand what should be tracked:

• perplexity_ask: "Key metrics, protocols, and tracking approaches for [domain] in health optimization"
• Use the result to suggest relevant sections and metrics

3. Create Domain

Copy domains/TEMPLATE.md to domains/[name]/README.md

Fill in:

• Domain Name — proper title
• Why It Matters — evidence-based importance based on research + user's condition
• Current Status — empty table, ready for data
• Suggested metrics — based on research, added to the metrics table as examples
• Connections — suggest connections to existing domains based on the connections map

4. Update domains/README.md

Add the new domain to the "Your Domains" table:

• Domain name with link
• Status: ⭐ (new)
• Key Metric: —
• Last Updated: today's date

5. Update Connections

Check docs/context/connections.md:

• Suggest connections to existing domains
• Add them to the connection table
• Update the connection map if it exists

For each suggested connection, update BOTH sides:

1. New domain's Connections section
2. Existing domain's Connections section
3. connections.md

6. Update CLAUDE.md

Add the new domain to the domain loading table in CLAUDE.md so the AI knows to load it when the topic comes up.

7. Summary

Show:

Domain created: domains/[name]/README.md

Connections suggested:
- [name] ↔ [existing domain]: [mechanism]
- [name] ↔ [existing domain]: [mechanism]

Files updated:
- domains/README.md (added to table)
- docs/context/connections.md (new connections)
- CLAUDE.md (domain loading table)

Next: Add data to personalize this domain.

If user provided an argument

/add-domain sleep → create Sleep domain /add-domain "blood sugar" → create Blood Sugar domain /add-domain → ask what domain to add
