Apex Profile

SkillAI & models

Scope the tonone agent roster for this project — install a curated subset of agents instead of the full 100-agent bundle. Use when "cut down the agent list", "profile for this project", "too many agents", "only need the engineering core", or after apex-stats shows a roster that's mostly unused.

Then ask your AI: use the Apex Profile skill

What this skill tells your AI

The instructions your AI receives, as published by tonone-ai/tonone in skills/apex-profile/SKILL.md and read by ahel’s review.

You are Apex — the engineering lead. Scope the installed agent roster to what this project actually uses.

Follow the output format defined in docs/output-kit.md — 40-line CLI max, box-drawing skeleton, unified severity indicators, compressed prose.

Why this exists

Each tonone agent is registered as its own plugin (<agent>@tonone-ai) in .claude-plugin/marketplace.json, self-contained with its own skills, hooks, and scripts. Installing the monolithic tonone@tonone-ai plugin registers all ~100 agents in every session regardless of project. Toggling individual agent plugins on/off via enabledPlugins in .claude/settings.json gives per-project scoping without any new plugin architecture — this skill automates writing that config correctly.

Steps

  1. Read current state. Check for an existing .claude/settings.json and .claude/settings.local.json in the project root. If either has an enabledPlugins block, show what's currently enabled (in particular, whether tonone@tonone-ai — the full bundle — is on).

  2. Ask how to pick the roster (AskUserQuestion, single-select):

    • Preset — pick from a named project-type roster (below)
    • Custom list — user names the agents directly
    • From apex-stats — run /apex-stats first, then default the roster to every agent with at least one spawn in the lookback window
    • Full roster (undo) — revert to installing all agents

    Presets (curated, extend as needed — cite these verbatim, don't invent new ones without asking):

    PresetAgents
    web-appapex, spine, flux, prism, proof, warden, crest
    mobile-appapex, touch, spine, flux, proof, warden
    platform-infraapex, forge, relay, terra, kube, vigil, warden
    security-auditapex, warden, red, blue, hunt, patch, chain, sast
    ml-productapex, cortex, flux, feat, fit, score, drift, embed

    Always include apex — it's the orchestrator and the front door for any takeover/status/review workflow, even in a scoped profile.

  3. Ask where to write it (AskUserQuestion, single-select) — this is a real tradeoff, not a formality:

    • .claude/settings.json — committed, shared with the team, everyone gets the same scoped roster
    • .claude/settings.local.json — gitignored, this developer only, doesn't affect teammates
  4. Merge, don't overwrite. Read the target file if it exists (else start from {}). Update only the enabledPlugins key, preserving every other key untouched:

    python3 - "$TARGET_FILE" "$ROSTER_CSV" <<'PYEOF'
    import json, sys, pathlib
    
    target = pathlib.Path(sys.argv[1])
    roster = [a.strip() for a in sys.argv[2].split(",") if a.strip()]
    
    data = json.loads(target.read_text()) if target.exists() else {}
    plugins = data.setdefault("enabledPlugins", {})
    
    if roster:
        plugins["tonone@tonone-ai"] = False
        for agent in roster:
            plugins[f"{agent}@tonone-ai"] = True
    else:
        # full roster / undo
        plugins["tonone@tonone-ai"] = True
        for key in list(plugins):
            if key != "tonone@tonone-ai" and key.endswith("@tonone-ai"):
                del plugins[key]
    
    target.parent.mkdir(parents=True, exist_ok=True)
    target.write_text(json.dumps(data, indent=2) + "\n")
    PYEOF
    
  5. Report. Roster size vs full 100, which file was written, and that the change takes effect on the next Claude Code session (plugin enablement is read at startup, not live). Note each enabled agent brings its own skills automatically (e.g. spine@tonone-ai includes spine-api, spine-design, etc. — no separate skill toggles needed). If output exceeds the 40-line CLI budget, invoke /atlas-report with the full findings. The HTML report is the output. CLI is the receipt — box header, one-line verdict, and the report path.

Notes

  • This scopes the Agent tool menu, not this skill itself or other gstack/root skills — apex-status, apex-profile, etc. stay available regardless of roster.
  • Disabling tonone@tonone-ai while enabling individual <agent>@tonone-ai plugins is intentional — the monolithic bundle and the per-agent plugins both register the same agents/*.md files, so leaving the bundle on defeats the scoping.
  • If unsure which agents a project needs, run /apex-stats first — it's the evidence this skill should act on.
  • Recommended default: install the lean core (the preset, not the full 100) and lean on /apex-route for occasional long-tail needs — that combination gets a small "Available agent types" listing every session AND full access to all 100 specialists. Reserve installing an extra agent natively for one that apex-stats shows is used often enough that the per-route persona-read cost isn't worth paying repeatedly.
