Brewcode Plugin Update

Check, install, and update the brewcode plugin suite (brewcode, brewdoc, brewtools, brewui). Executes all commands in the current Claude Code session — never gives "you should run" instructions.

Argument Handling

Skill arguments received: $ARGUMENTS

| Arg | Behavior | |-----|----------| | (empty) | Interactive — all 6 phases with AskUserQuestion gates | | check | Phases 0-2 only (status table), no prompts | | update | Phases 0-4, non-interactive "Update all" | | all | Phases 0-6 non-interactive |

Parse the first token of $ARGUMENTS. Unknown or empty → interactive.

Critical Rules

• EXECUTE every claude plugin ... command in THIS session via Bash tool. Show full output.
• NEVER use claude plugin list — that subcommand does not exist. Use scripts/discover-plugins.sh.
• NEVER suggest --plugin-dir for end users (dev-only).
• ALWAYS print the reload notice at the end, even on no-op runs.
• AskUserQuestion: options lists only, no free-text fields.

---

Phase 0 — Discover Installed Plugins

EXECUTE using Bash tool:

bash "${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/scripts/discover-plugins.sh" && echo "✅ discover OK" || echo "❌ discover FAILED"

STOP if ❌ — inspect stderr, fix script, retry once. If still fails, report to user and continue without installed data (treat everything as missing).

Parse the JSON output. Partition into:

• suite = {brewcode, brewdoc, brewtools, brewui}
• other = everything else

Read references/discovery.md if you need details on how discovery works.

Phase 1 — Fetch Latest Versions

EXECUTE using Bash tool:

bash "${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/scripts/fetch-latest-versions.sh" && echo "✅ fetch OK" || echo "❌ fetch FAILED"

STOP if ❌ — report network issue, mark latest versions as "unknown", continue.

Merge with Phase 0 data.

Phase 2 — Status Table

Render markdown table to the user:

| Plugin | Installed | Latest | Status | |--------|-----------|--------|--------| | brewcode | 3.4.51 | 3.4.52 | ⬇️ update | | brewdoc | 3.4.51 | 3.4.51 | ✅ current | | brewtools | — | 3.4.51 | ❌ missing | | brewui | 3.4.51 | 3.4.51 | ✅ current |

Status legend: ✅ current, ⬇️ update available, ❌ missing, ❓ unknown.

Also list other plugins below with their versions (informational).

If arg = check → STOP here. Skip to Phase 6.

Phase 2b — Token-Cost Table (Optional)

Precheck command availability:

claude plugin details --help >/dev/null 2>&1 && echo "available" || echo "skip"

If unavailable → SKIP this phase entirely (proceed to Phase 3).

If available, for each installed suite plugin run:

claude plugin details <plugin>@claude-brewcode

Parse output and render a token-cost table to the user:

| Plugin | Base Tokens | With Skills | Hooks | Total | |--------|-------------|-------------|-------|-------| | brewcode | ... | ... | ... | ... | | brewdoc | ... | ... | ... | ... | | brewtools | ... | ... | ... | ... | | brewui | ... | ... | ... | ... |

Column names depend on actual claude plugin details output fields — adapt accordingly. If a field is missing, render —. If the command fails for a specific plugin, render ❓ for that row and continue.

Phase is informational only; do not block on errors.

Phase 3 — Install Missing

For each missing suite plugin, ask the user via AskUserQuestion (unless arg ∈ {update, all}, then skip installation or auto-install only for all).

AskUserQuestion (only in interactive mode, only if missing plugins exist):

Question: "Install missing brewcode plugins?" Options:

• "Install all missing" — install every missing suite plugin
• "Install selected" — ask per-plugin
• "Skip install" — proceed to updates

If "Install selected" — ask per plugin with options ["Install", "Skip"].

EXECUTE (idempotent — re-adding marketplace is safe):

claude plugin marketplace add https://github.com/kochetkov-ma/claude-brewcode && echo "✅ marketplace add OK" || echo "⚠️ marketplace add warning (may already exist)"

Then for each plugin to install:

claude plugin install <plugin>@claude-brewcode && echo "✅ install <plugin> OK" || echo "❌ install <plugin> FAILED"

Show full output of each command to the user.

Reference prompt for multi-command recovery: references/install-prompt.md.

Phase 4 — Update Outdated

AskUserQuestion (only interactive; update and all auto-pick "Update all"):

Question: "Update brewcode plugin suite?" Options:

• "Update all" — full chain (marketplace + all 4 plugins)
• "Update suite only" — same as "all" (alias)
• "Update selected" — ask per-plugin
• "Skip updates" — proceed to Phase 5

EXECUTE full chain in order, showing output of each:

claude plugin marketplace update claude-brewcode && echo "✅ marketplace update OK" || echo "❌ marketplace update FAILED"

claude plugin update brewcode@claude-brewcode && echo "✅ brewcode update OK" || echo "❌ brewcode update FAILED"

claude plugin update brewdoc@claude-brewcode && echo "✅ brewdoc update OK" || echo "❌ brewdoc update FAILED"

claude plugin update brewtools@claude-brewcode && echo "✅ brewtools update OK" || echo "❌ brewtools update FAILED"

claude plugin update brewui@claude-brewcode && echo "✅ brewui update OK" || echo "❌ brewui update FAILED"

If any step fails, report exact error and continue with remaining steps. Reference: references/update-commands.md, references/update-prompt.md.

Phase 5 — Auto-Update Toggle (Optional)

Skip for arg ∈ {check, update}. Only interactive or all.

Per Claude Code docs, third-party marketplace auto-update is OFF by default and toggled per-marketplace via /plugin UI → Marketplaces → claude-brewcode. The exact settings.json key is unverified — see references/autoupdate-research.md.

AskUserQuestion (interactive only):

Question: "Enable auto-update for claude-brewcode marketplace?" Options:

• "Enable via /plugin UI" — instruct user to open /plugin → Marketplaces → claude-brewcode → toggle auto-update
• "Skip" — leave current setting

Do NOT patch settings.json blindly — the key is unverified. Tell the user to toggle via /plugin UI.

Phase 5b — Prune Stale Plugin Caches

EXECUTE using Bash tool:

claude plugin prune --help >/dev/null 2>&1 && claude plugin prune || echo "skipped: claude plugin prune unavailable"

Cleans stale plugin caches left behind by older versions. Non-fatal: if the CLI lacks prune, the || fallback prints a skip notice and continues.

Phase 6 — Reload Notice & Final Report

ALWAYS print the contents of references/reload-notice.md:

⚠️ Reload plugins to activate updates. Preferred: run /reload-plugins in this session. Fallback: type exit, then run claude again.

Then print a final summary:

• Plugins installed this run: [...]
• Plugins updated this run: [...]
• Plugins skipped: [...]
• Errors encountered: [...]

Done.
