Scout

When you're staring at Claude Code's dozens of skills and subagents wondering which one to actually use, this is your way out. Scout analyzes your conversation context and recommends the right tools for what you're trying to do, whether that's a specific skill like the API endpoint scaffolder or a subagent like the Frontend Developer. It has access to the full list of available capabilities and explains not just what to use but why and how to chain them together for complex workflows. Think of it as the tool you call when you don't know which tool to call. Most useful when you're new to Claude Code or jumping into an unfamiliar domain where you're not sure what exists.
