# Nyann
> **ငြမ်း** is Burmese for _scaffolding_. Nyann is the Claude Code plugin that picks expert git defaults for your stack — branching, **working hooks** (Husky / pre-commit.com / lefthook), commits, releases, CI, docs — then keeps the repo on those rails through every PR after. Conversational by default; every destructive change is previewed, schema-validated, and reversible.

## Is nyann for you?
**Use nyann when:**
- You start new projects more than once a month.
- You maintain multiple repos and want consistent hygiene across all of them.
- You use Claude Code and want git + hooks + docs setup to be conversational.
- You lead a small team and want shared conventions via profiles.
**Skip nyann when:**
- You start maybe one project a year. The setup time to learn nyann outweighs what it saves.
- You have mature internal scaffolding you're happy with.
- You want a code generator (nyann does not scaffold application code; that's `create-next-app` / `cookiecutter` territory).
## What makes it different
- **Working hooks for 31 stacks, not just configs.** nyann installs the right framework — Husky for JS/TS, pre-commit.com for Python, lefthook for Go/Rust, native `.git/hooks` for shell, and per-tool IaC hooks (Terraform, CDK, Pulumi, Kubernetes, Helm, Ansible) — with hooks that run on day one. No follow-up `husky install` required.
- **Preview before every mutation.** Every destructive path emits a JSON `ActionPlan`, renders a unified diff for merges, and waits for confirmation. The plan is SHA-bound, so the bytes you approve are the bytes that land — no TOCTOU between preview and execute.
- **Reversible.** `bootstrap` and `retrofit` write a `BootRecord` (manifest + pre-state file copies) before mutating. `/nyann:undo-bootstrap` consumes it to restore your repo to its pre-setup state — refusing to clobber files you've edited since.
- **Schema-validated contracts between every script.** All 72 cross-layer JSON shapes (`ActionPlan`, `DriftReport`, `StackDescriptor`, `BootRecord`, …) are locked by JSON Schema. A field rename without a schema bump fails CI. **2136 bats tests** cover the surface.
- **Team-shareable governance.** Profiles are pure data — register a git URL and your team's branching, hooks, conventions, and doc routing sync across every repo automatically. Stale-team-profile detection nudges before the next bootstrap.
- **Health-graded, drift-aware.** `doctor` produces a 0–100 score with per-category deltas and trend sparklines from `memory/health.json`. Inline drift checks at commit / PR / ship time nudge (don't gate) when the repo drifts from its profile; `governance-check.yml` upgrades that to a CI gate when desired.
## Supported stacks
**Working hooks, branching, commits, and docs across 31 stacks.** Nyann detects yours automatically and applies the right profile — branching strategy, commit conventions, language-specific hooks (Husky, pre-commit.com, lefthook, …) wired up to run on day one, and archetype-aware documentation scaffolding. All profiles default to Conventional Commits + GitHub Flow.

## Archetypes
Orthogonal to the **stack** (language + framework), nyann classifies every project into one of **7 archetypes** that drive archetype-aware doc scaffolding. The same TypeScript stack can be a `web-app`, `library`, `cli-tool`, or `plugin` depending on what the repo *does* — and gets a different set of docs accordingly.
| Archetype | Detected from | Scaffolds |
|---|---|---|
| `api-service` | OpenAPI / proto specs, or server frameworks (FastAPI, NestJS, Django, Rails, Spring Boot, Phoenix, Laravel, Gin, Echo, ASP.NET, …) without a frontend | `architecture.md`, `api-reference.md`, `runbook.md`, `deployment.md`, `decisions/`, `glossary.md` |
| `web-app` | Frontend frameworks (Next.js, Nuxt, SvelteKit, Astro, React, Vue, Remix) | `architecture.md`, `runbook.md`, `deployment.md`, `decisions/`, `glossary.md` |
| `infra` | IaC monorepo signals — Terraform (`*.tf` in root / `modules/` / `environments/`), AWS CDK (`cdk.json`), Pulumi (`Pulumi.yaml`), Helm (`Chart.yaml` + `values.yaml`/`templates/`), Kustomize (`kustomization.yaml`) | `architecture.md`, `runbook.md`, `deployment.md`, `decisions/`, `glossary.md` |
| `mobile-app` | iOS (xcodeproj/Podfile), Android (AndroidManifest.xml), Flutter (pubspec.yaml + flutter dep), React Native (react-native/expo in package.json) | `architecture.md`, `runbook.md`, `deployment.md`, `decisions/`, `glossary.md` |
| `cli-tool` | `package.json` with `bin`, `pyproject.toml` with `[project.scripts]`, Cargo `[[bin]]`, Go `cmd/*/main.go` | `architecture.md`, `runbook.md`, `decisions/`, `glossary.md` |
| `library` | Published-package signals without an entry-point binary (`main`/`module`/`exports` in `package.json`, Cargo `[lib]`, Swift `Package.swift`) | `architecture.md`, `api-reference.md`, `decisions/`, `glossary.md` |
| `plugin` | `.claude-plugin/plugin.json`, `engines.vscode` in `package.json`, browser-extension `manifest.json` with `manifest_version` | `architecture.md`, `decisions/`, `glossary.md` |
| _fallback_ | `unknown` — when none of the above match | `architecture.md`, `decisions/` (pre-v1.6.0 default) |
Detection runs in priority order: `plugin` → `infra` → `mobile-app` → frontend frameworks defer artifact-based `api-service` until `web-app` is checked → `api-service` (server frameworks) → `cli-tool` → `library`. This ordering means a full-stack repo with Next.js + an OpenAPI spec for backend route handlers classifies as `web-app` (frontend is the user-visible primary surface), not `api-service`.
Override detection by setting `"archetype"` in your profile, or pass `--archetype <name>` to `/nyann:bootstrap` / `/nyann:route-docs`. Archetype-aware scaffolding is opt-in via `documentation.use_archetype_scaffolds: true` in the profile.
## Quickstart
**1. Install nyann as a Claude Code plugin.**
Install from the community marketplace (Anthropic-curated, reviewed releases):
```text
claude plugin marketplace add anthropics/claude-plugins-community
claude plugin install nyann@claude-community
```
Or install from the nyann repo directly (latest tag, fastest to update):
```text
/plugin marketplace add thettwe/nyann
/plugin install nyann@nyann-plugins
```
> The community-marketplace listing is SHA-pinned and syncs nightly after Anthropic's review pipeline approves a new version, so it can lag behind by one or more tags. The direct path picks up new tags as soon as you run `/plugin marketplace update`. Use the direct path if you want the newest fixes immediately; use the community path if you prefer to wait for an Anthropic-reviewed release.
For development / hacking on nyann itself, clone directly:
```sh
git clone https://github.com/thettwe/nyann ~/.claude/plugins/nyann
```
**2. Bootstrap a repo.**
Open Claude Code in an empty (or existing) project directory and say:
> "set up this project"
Or use the slash command directly:
> `/nyann:bootstrap`
Claude detects your stack, previews a plan with a unified diff for merge actions, and on confirmation produces:
- Git initialized with the right base branches for the detected branching strategy
- `.gitignore` merged from stack-specific templates (existing user lines preserved — never overwritten)
- **Working git hooks** wired to the right framework: Husky (JS/TS), pre-commit.com (Python), lefthook (Go/Rust), or native `.git/hooks` (shell). Linting, formatting, Conventional-Commits validation, secret scanning, and `block-main` are runnable on day one.
- `docs/` archetype-aware scaffold (api-service / cli-tool / library / web-app / mobile-app / plugin) — architecture, ADR-000, and matching templates
- `memory/` with README plus the BootRecord under `memory/.nyann/bootstraps/<ts>/` so the run is reversible
- `CLAUDE.md` as a router-mode file under the 3 KB soft cap (8 KB hard cap)
- `.editorconfig`, `.github/workflows/ci.yml`, `.github/PULL_REQUEST_TEMPLATE.md`, `.github/ISSUE_TEMPLATE/`, and `CODEOWNERS` (monorepo) when the profile opts in
- GitHub branch + tag protection auto-applied via `gh` if installed and authenticated
Total wall time on a clean directory: **~2 seconds** (excluding `npm install` / `pip install` / etc.).
**3. Keep using nyann.**
You don't need to memorize slash commands. Just describe what you need:
| You say | What happens |
|---|---|
| "commit these changes" | Generates a Conventional Commits message and commits |
| "start a feature branch for login" | Creates a strategy-compliant branch |
| "is this repo healthy?" | Graded health score (0–100), per-category deltas, sparkline trend from history |
| "cut a patch release" | Auto-detects the semver bump from Conventional Commits, regenerates CHANGELOG, tags, optionally creates a GitHub release |
| "pull and rebase" | Syncs upstream changes with conflict guidance |
| "undo that" | Reverses the last commit on a feature branch |
| "undo the bootstrap" | Reverses the last `bootstrap` (or `retrofit`) run from its boot record |
| "open a PR" | Creates a GitHub PR from the current branch |
| "ship it" | Opens a PR and either auto-merges (returns immediately) or polls CI then merges |
| "generate CI for this project" | Writes a GitHub Actions workflow + optional governance gate |
Every skill also has a slash command (`/nyann:commit`, `/nyann:doctor`, etc.) listed in the [full command reference](#skills--commands) below.
## What you get
| Area | What nyann does |
|---|---|
| **Bootstrap** | Stack-detected, schema-validated `ActionPlan` previewed before any write. Per-language working hooks, archetype-aware doc scaffolds, CI workflow, GitHub templates, branch + tag protection, and `.gitignore` merge with diff-preview. Monorepo-aware (pnpm / Turborepo / Nx / Lerna / Cargo workspaces). |
| **Reversibility** | `bootstrap` / `retrofit` write a `BootRecord` (manifest + pre-state file copies) before mutating; `/nyann:undo-bootstrap` reverses the run. Refusal-by-default protects files edited after bootstrap, branches with stacked commits, and HEAD ahead of the bootstrap seed. |
| **Retrofit** | Scoped audit + remediation against a profile. `--scope docs\|hooks\|branching\|gitignore\|editorconfig\|github` lets you fix one category without touching the others. Idempotent — safe to re-run. Boot-record-backed, so it's reversible too. |
| **Doctor** | Read-only hygiene audit with a numerical **health score (0–100)** persisted to `memory/health.json`, rendered as a per-category sparkline trend. Covers hook drift, gitignore, non-Conventional history, broken internal links, doc orphans, doc staleness, archetype conformance (misplaced docs), CLAUDE.md size budget, and GitHub protection drift. `--explain` flag pipes the drift report through `explain-diff` for a plain-English summary. |
| **Commit** | Reads the staged diff, generates a Conventional Commits message scoped to touched workspaces (monorepo), and retries once on hook rejection. |
| **Branch** | Creates strategy-compliant branch names off the right base for the active strategy (GitHub Flow / GitFlow / trunk-based). Validates slug; switches to an existing branch if one already matches. |
| **PR** | Opens a GitHub PR with a Conventional-Commits-style title generated from the commit range and a body summarizing the diff. Context-only mode works without `gh`. |
| **Ship** | Combined PR + merge in one step. Default uses GitHub's native auto-merge so the terminal returns immediately with `outcome:"queued"`. `--client-side` polls CI in the foreground and runs `gh pr merge` when checks pass. |
| **Release** | **Auto-detects the next semver bump** from Conventional Commits since the last tag. Generates the CHANGELOG section, optionally bumps profile-declared manifest files (`package.json`, `plugin.json`, `pyproject.toml`, …), creates an annotated tag, pushes a GitHub release. Pre-release support for `-rc.N` / `-beta.N`. CI-gated tagging — `--push` waits for green CI on HEAD's PR by default (opt out with `--no-wait-for-checks`). Monorepo: `--workspace` and `--all-workspaces` for per-workspace versioning with scoped tags (`core@2.1.0`); `--batch-commit` groups all workspace releases into a single commit. |
| **Hotfix** | Branch topology for patch releases against a previously tagged version. Creates `release/<major>.<minor>` from the source tag if missing, then `hotfix/<slug>` off it. Pairs with `release` for the actual cut. |
| **PR risk score** | `/nyann:ship` computes a composite risk score (churn × test gap × health delta) and surfaces `low | medium | high` with actionable recommendations before opening the PR. Highlights "many source changes without matching test updates" and hotspot files. |
| **CI generation** | Generates `.github/workflows/ci.yml` matched to your stack and profile (lint + typecheck + test jobs). Optional `governance-check.yml` posts inline PR comments when drift exceeds threshold or health drops below the floor. |
| **GitHub protection** | Audit (`--check`) or apply branch protection, tag rulesets, signing requirements, security settings, and Dependabot config. Output validates against `protection-audit.schema.json` so other tooling can consume it. |
| **Docs routing** | Routes docs to local Markdown, Obsidian (MCP), Notion (MCP), or a per-doc-type split. Standalone re-routing after bootstrap regenerates the scaffold to match. `memory/` stays local. |
| **Glossary** | Auto-populates `docs/glossary.md` from detected exported types (Go, TS, JS, Python, Rust, Java, Kotlin, Swift) at bootstrap and retrofit time. Marker-bracketed auto block; user content outside markers is preserved. Profile-gated via `documentation.glossary.auto_populate`. |
| **CLAUDE.md** | Router-mode generation under 3 KB soft / 8 KB hard cap. Standalone regeneration via `gen-claudemd`. **Usage-based optimization** trims sections Claude never references, based on `analytics/claudemd-usage.jsonl`. |
| **Inline drift checks** | Drift detection runs at point-of-use (commit / PR / ship / release) — not on session start. Surfaces broken links, orphans, doc staleness, CLAUDE.md size, and protection drift. Non-blocking nudge by default; CI gate on opt-in. |
| **IaC governance** | First-class support for Terraform / OpenTofu, AWS CDK, Pulumi, Kubernetes / Kustomize, Helm, and Ansible. `/nyann:plan` previews a read-only add/change/destroy summary; `/nyann:apply` is opt-in with a destroy-gate, credentials kept off argv, and an audit `IacApplyRecord`. Drift detection (unpinned refs, missing lockfiles, secrets-in-vars, version-lag) folds into `doctor`; `release` versions each unit / chart independently in dependency order. |
| **CI sentinel** | `/nyann:watch` polls open PRs for state transitions (checks / review / merge) and queues notifications. Runs as a supervised background daemon (launchd / systemd / `nohup`), delivers to Slack / Discord / webhook / email (secrets referenced by env-var name, never stored), a per-repo GitHub issue digest (one issue, one comment per batch), or a native OS toast (macOS / Linux) — and aggregates across many repos with a rate-limit-aware scheduler and a `read-notifications --all` merged view. |
| **Coverage-delta guard** | Opt-in, advisory PR guard that reuses an existing CI coverage artifact (js / python / go / rust), compares it against a stored baseline, and warns when coverage drops past a threshold. Never runs a test suite; never blocks. |
| **Fleet** | A registry of your local repos (`fleet.json` — add one, or scan a directory) powering bulk governance: `/nyann:fleet` renders a worst-first cross-repo health dashboard (score, trend sparkline, drift counts; live or instant-cached; markdown export for team channels) with a repo-tagged drift roll-up, and `/nyann:fleet-retrofit` walks the fleet fixing drift — and optionally bootstrapping un-governed repos — with a preview and explicit confirmation **per repo**, each individually undoable. |

## Profiles
### Customizing profiles
Nyann picks the right profile automatically. If the starter profiles don't fit, you have two options:
**Learn from an existing repo.** If you already have a well-configured project, nyann can extract a reusable profile from it:
```sh
bin/learn-profile.sh --target ~/projects/my-good-app --name good-app
```
This infers stack, hooks, branching, and conventions from the repo's files and last 50 commits.
**Inspect any profile.** To see what a profile contains before using it:
```sh
bin/inspect-profile.sh nextjs-prototype
```
### Profile precedence
When multiple profiles exist with the same name, the most specific one wins:
1. `~/.claude/nyann/profiles/<name>.json` user profiles
2. `~/.claude/nyann/cache/<source>/.../<name>.json` team profiles (synced from a git URL)
3. `<plugin>/profiles/<name>.json` starter profiles
A namespaced name like `our-team/frontend-baseline` bypasses user shadowing.
### Team profiles
Share conventions across a team by syncing profiles from a git repo:
```sh
# Register a source — optionally pinned to a tag, SHA, or branch
bin/add-team-source.sh --name our-team \
--url https://github.com/our-org/nyann-profiles.git \
--pin-strategy tag --pin-ref v1.0.0
# Sync (shallow clone, respects sync_interval_hours)
bin/sync-team-profiles.sh [--force]
# When pinned: check what would change before accepting an update
bin/sync-team-profiles.sh --check-updates --name our-team
bin/sync-team-profiles.sh --accept-update --name our-team
```
When a team profile updates upstream, nyann checks for staleness at point-of-use (during bootstrap and profile migration) and prompts you to sync before proceeding. **SHA and tag pinning** (v1.11.0) keep the team source on a known-good revision; updates require explicit `--accept-update` and surface a changelog of what changed. <!-- drift-ignore: historical version reference -->
### Profile composition (`extends`)
Avoid copy-paste between similar profiles. A child profile can inherit from a parent via `"extends"`:
```json
{
"name": "my-react-vite",
"extends": "react-vite",
"branching": { "scopes": ["api", "web"] }
}
```
Deep merge semantics: scalars and objects merge recursively (child wins), arrays replace entirely, `null` removes a parent's field. Max chain depth: 3. Circular references are rejected. Namespaced `team/name` form is supported for team-source parents.
## Project Memory
nyann scaffolds and maintains your project's **Project Memory** — a documentation layer designed for AI agents to retrieve, sized to fit their context, and kept in sync as your code evolves.
```
CLAUDE.md ──→ docs/ (durable Project Memory)
│ ──→ memory/ (ephemeral team scratch)
│
└─ router-mode (≤ 3 KB), points into both.
```
Five properties define it:
1. **AI-retrieval-first** — bounded scope per doc, predictable structure, decision rationale captured.
2. **Size-budgeted** — docs fit in context windows. CLAUDE.md is router-mode (≤3 KB soft cap), not a content dump.
3. **Drift-aware** — broken links, orphans, and staleness surfaced automatically by `doctor` and CI.
4. **Storage-agnostic** — local Markdown, Obsidian (MCP), or Notion (MCP). Equal citizens.
5. **Dual-audience** — high-signal structure works for AI agents AND humans reading reference docs.
See [`docs/principles/documentation.md`](docs/principles/documentation.md) for the full definition.
### Storage routing
By default `CLAUDE.md` links to local `docs/` and `memory/`.
When Claude Code has an Obsidian or Notion MCP configured, nyann asks where each doc type should live:
```text
adrs:obsidian, research:local, architecture:local
```
`memory/` is **always** local — it's the ephemeral team-shared scratch layer, distinct from Project Memory itself.
## Prereqs
Run `/nyann:check-prereqs` (or `bin/check-prereqs.sh`) for a live inventory.
**Hard** (required):
- `git`
- `jq` (`brew install jq` / `apt install jq`)
- `bash` 3.2+ (macOS default is fine)
**Soft** (feature-gated; nyann skips with a reason when missing):
| Feature | Needs |
|---|---|
| JS/TS hooks | `node` + `npm` / `pnpm` / `yarn` / `bun` |
| Python hooks | `python3` + `pre-commit` (or `uv` / `uvx`) |
| Go hooks | `go` |
| Rust hooks | `cargo` |
| Swift hooks | `swiftlint`, `swiftformat` |
| Kotlin hooks | `ktlint`, `detekt` |
| Shell hooks | `shellcheck`, `shfmt` |
| Secret scanning | `gitleaks` |
| Branch protection | `gh` with `gh auth status` green |

Nyann never prompts for credentials. `gh auth status` is a passive read; missing auth surfaces as a skip, not a prompt.

## Recent changes
See [`CHANGELOG.md`](CHANGELOG.md) for the full release history. Most recent: **v1.14.0** — *Fleet*. nyann's governance verbs go multi-repo: a fleet registry of your local repos powers bulk audit, a cross-repo health dashboard, and bulk remediation with per-repo confirmation. Highlights:
- **Fleet registry** — `~/.claude/nyann/fleet.json` holds your local repos (add one, or `--scan` a directory — preview-first); an entry's optional GitHub slug joins it to the CI watch-list (`--add --watch` mirrors it).
- **Cross-repo health dashboard** — `/nyann:fleet` runs the per-repo doctor across the fleet: worst-first board with scores, trend sparklines, and drift counts; instant `--cached` snapshots with staleness flags; `--markdown` export; a repo-tagged drift roll-up with plain-English `--explain`.
- **Bulk remediation** — `/nyann:fleet-retrofit` walks the fleet fixing drift (and, opt-in, bootstrapping un-governed repos) with a preview and explicit confirmation **per repo**; every repo writes its own BootRecord and stays individually undoable.
- **GitHub issue digest delivery** — sentinel notifications land as comments on one per-repo digest issue (never issue-per-notification), through `gh`'s own auth; messages are hardened against markdown/@mention injection.
- **Native OS notifications** — one toast per batch via macOS `osascript` / Linux `notify-send`, with injection hardening and headless soft-skips.
