chameleon

Use when the user explicitly invokes /chameleon-pr-review to review a PR or branch diff against the repo's chameleon conventions, principles, and task requirements. Reports convention violations + logic gaps.

Use when the user explicitly invokes /chameleon-journey to run the comprehensive real-world journey harness against the chameleon plugin

Use when the user explicitly invokes /chameleon-doctor to get a triage report on their chameleon installation health

Use when the user explicitly invokes /chameleon-init to bootstrap a chameleon profile for the current repository (TypeScript/JavaScript, Ruby, or Python — framework-agnostic, with deeper awareness for Rails and Django/DRF/Flask/FastAPI)

Use when the user explicitly invokes /chameleon-refresh to re-analyze the current repo and update the chameleon profile after drift

Use when the user explicitly invokes /chameleon-receiving-code-review to handle a code review the team left on their PR — verify each comment against the code and the repo's chameleon conventions, decide apply-or-push-back, draft replies, and implement approved fixes one at a time.

Use when the user explicitly invokes /chameleon-deep-work <task> to execute a substantive coding task end to end: dig the code and external unknowns first (no clarifying questions — parallel expert subagents work independent unknowns), present a 100%-understanding brief, then implement and verify in an isolated git worktree under chameleon's per-edit guardrails.

Use when the user explicitly invokes /chameleon-status to view profile state, drift indicators, and trust state for the current repo

Use when the user explicitly invokes /chameleon-explain to drill down on one enforcement rule (its calibration, would-block frequency, inline-override rate), to replay what chameleon knew and did the last time a file was edited (post-incident gap analysis), or to look up one shelved review finding by match_key

Lens definitions and per-language/per-framework probes for auditing the chameleon plugin. Loaded by /loop and the gap-hunter agent. Use when hunting coverage gaps, vacuous-silence bugs, logic gaps, workflow gaps or inconsistencies across chameleon's supported languages and frameworks.

Use when the user explicitly invokes /chameleon-auto-idiom to auto-derive high-quality team idioms from repo evidence, or accepts the offer after /chameleon-init or /chameleon-refresh when idioms.md has no active idioms

Active when .chameleon/ profile directory exists. Explains hook-injected pattern context and violation feedback for TypeScript/JavaScript, Ruby, and Python as first-class languages — framework-agnostic by default (it learns your repo's own conventions), with deeper awareness where conventions are strong: Rails for Ruby, Django/DRF/Flask/FastAPI for Python, and Next.js/NestJS for TypeScript/JavaScript.

Use when the user explicitly invokes /chameleon-trust to approve a committed chameleon profile for use in their current Claude Code session

Use when the user explicitly invokes /chameleon-pause-15m to temporarily suppress chameleon's advisory injections for 15 minutes

Use when the user explicitly invokes /chameleon-disable to suppress chameleon's advisory injections for the rest of the current session

Use when the user explicitly invokes /chameleon-teach to capture a team idiom, banned import, mandatory wrapper, or pattern that AST analysis cannot infer
