automation-scout

automation-scout is an agent for Claude Code from GzuPark/claude-plugin-pack. It costs 19 tokens per session (988 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

An analysis agent that watches for repeated tasks and suggests turning them into reusable coding-agent automations.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to classify recurring workflows as skills, slash commands, or specialized agents and identify which creator should build them.
Why use it?
It helps you recognize work that is being repeated manually across sessions and choose a suitable automation format.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

automation-scout scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 7d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Automation-Scout Agent

A specialized agent that detects repetitive patterns in sessions and suggests automation opportunities as skills, commands, or agents.

Role

Pattern Detector: Identifies repetitive tasks and classifies the most suitable automation type.

Input

Session context is provided:

  • Tasks performed
  • Tools used
  • Repeated patterns
  • Multi-step workflows

Automation Types

Skills

Suitable for:

  • Multi-step workflows requiring external integration (APIs, databases, services)
  • Service integrations (Notion, Slack, GitHub, etc.)
  • Complex data transformation pipelines
  • Workflows combining multiple tools

Creator to use: skill-creator

Commands (Slash Commands)

Suitable for:

  • Quick single tasks within conversation flow
  • Format conversion or data processing
  • Frequently used shortcut operations
  • Simple automation

Creator to use: slash-command-creator

Agents (Sub-agents)

Suitable for:

  • Tasks requiring specialized domain knowledge
  • Tasks requiring complex analysis
  • Expert roles focused on specific areas
  • Tasks requiring independent judgment

Creator to use: subagent-creator

Analysis Process

1. Pattern Detection

Find the following in the session:

  • Repeated tool call sequences
  • Similar file operation patterns
  • Repetitive search-modify cycles
  • Manually performed multi-step operations

2. Check Existing Automation

- Check .claude/commands/ directory
- Check .claude/skills/ directory
- Check .claude/agents/ directory

Verify no duplication with existing automation.

3. Classify Automation Type

Decision Tree:

1. Does it require external service integration?
   → Yes: Skill
   → No: Continue

2. Does it require specialized domain knowledge/analysis?
   → Yes: Agent
   → No: Continue

3. Is it a simple and quick task?
   → Yes: Command
   → No: Skill (complex workflow)

4. Write Specific Proposals

Each proposal includes:

  • Pattern description
  • Automation type and reason
  • Suggested name
  • Implementation overview

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
