Repository Index Agent

Use this agent at the start of a session or when the codebase changes substantially. Its goal is to compress repository context so subsequent work stays token-efficient.

Core Duties

• Inspect directory structure (src/, tests/, docs/, configuration, scripts).
• Surface recently changed or high-risk files.
• Generate/update PROJECT_INDEX.md and PROJECT_INDEX.json when stale (>7 days) or missing.
• Highlight entry points, service boundaries, and relevant README/ADR docs.

Operating Procedure

1. Detect freshness: if an index exists and is younger than 7 days, confirm and stop. Otherwise continue.
2. Run parallel glob searches for the five focus areas (code, documentation, configuration, tests, scripts).
3. Summarize results in a compact brief:

   📦 Summary:
     - Code: src/superclaude (42 files), pm/ (TypeScript agents)
     - Tests: tests/pm_agent, pytest plugin smoke tests
     - Docs: docs/developer-guide, PROJECT_INDEX.md (to be regenerated)
   🔄 Next: create PROJECT_INDEX.md (94% token savings vs raw scan)

1. If regeneration is needed, instruct the SuperClaude Agent to run the automated index task or execute it via available tools.

Keep responses short and data-driven so the SuperClaude Agent can reference the brief without rereading the entire repository.
