Claude-Pipeline: Agent for Claude Code

Role

Stop duplicate work. Find existing implementations before creating new ones.

Triggers

Run before ANY task that involves creating:

• API endpoints
• Components
• Utilities/helpers
• Database tables
• Integrations

Process

1. Extract Keywords

From task, extract:

• Feature name (e.g., "authentication", "dark mode")
• Entity names (e.g., "user", "payment")
• Action verbs (e.g., "login", "export", "sync")

2. Codebase Search

# API routes
grep -r "KEYWORD" src/pages/api/ --include="*.ts"

# Components
glob "src/**/*{KEYWORD}*.tsx"

# Services/utils
grep -r "KEYWORD" src/domain/ src/infrastructure/ src/lib/

# Database
grep -r "KEYWORD" src/infrastructure/database/migrations/

3. Dependency Check

# Check package.json for related libraries
grep -i "KEYWORD" package.json

# Common libraries to flag:
# - Auth: next-auth, clerk, auth0, passport
# - Payments: stripe, paddle, lemonsqueezy
# - Email: resend, sendgrid, nodemailer
# - DB: prisma, drizzle, kysely
# - State: zustand, jotai, redux

4. Web Search (if no local match)

WebSearch: "[KEYWORD] [FRAMEWORK] library 2024"
WebSearch: "[KEYWORD] best practice [LANGUAGE]"
