What it does

Sync Check is an agent skill from ItamarZand88/CLI-Anything-WEB. Walks the documentation dependency web after a CLI code change and reports which downstream files (skills, SOPs, READMEs, plugin references) are out of sync. Use after fixing a bug, adding a command, changing auth behavior, refactoring, or before committing — and when the user says "sync check", "update docs", "propagate changes", "did I forget to update", "what else needs updating", or "before I commit".

Its SKILL.md is about 1.7k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Development, covering Operations and SOPs, Technical documentation and Debugging. The repository describes itself as: Claude Code plugin that generates production-grade Python CLIs for any web app. 20 CLIs and counting. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Says sync check
  • Propagate changes
  • Did I forget to update
  • What else needs updating

Example prompts

  • “sync check”
  • “update docs”
  • “propagate changes”
  • “/sync-check”

Workflow steps

6 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. Identify What Changed
  2. Classify the Change
  3. Run Verification Commands
  4. Check Each Downstream File
  5. Plugin Lesson Check (Bug Fixes Only)
  6. Verify with --json

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 931e201. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • git

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use git, which can reach the network depending on how they are called.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Sync Check loads about 1.7k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 105 tokens; SKILL.md has 387 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~105
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.7k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

description
Walks the documentation dependency web after a CLI code change and reports which downstream files (skills, SOPs, READMEs, plugin references) are out of sync. Use after fixing a bug, adding a command, changing auth behavior, refactoring, or before committing — and when the user says "sync check", "update docs", "propagate changes", "did I forget to update", "what else needs updating", or "before I commit".

Sync Check

After any code change, verify all related files are synchronized. This catches the "fixed the bug but forgot to update the skill/SOP/plugin docs" problem.

How to Use

Run /sync-check after making changes. It will:

  1. Detect what changed (from git diff or conversation context)
  2. Check all downstream files that depend on the change
  3. Report what's out of sync
  4. Offer to fix each one

The Dependency Web

Every change touches multiple files. Here's the full map:

Code Change → Documentation Updates
CLI code changed (client.py, commands/*.py, auth.py)
  ├── .claude/skills/<app>-cli/SKILL.md     (commands, output fields, examples)
  ├── <app>/agent-harness/<APP>.md           (SOP: rpcid table, data models)
  ├── <app>/agent-harness/cli_web/<app>/README.md  (usage examples, deps)
  ├── <app>/agent-harness/setup.py           (dependencies)
  └── <app>_cli.py _print_repl_help()        (REPL help must list all commands)
Bug Fix → Plugin Lesson Updates
Bug found and fixed in any CLI
  ├── Was it a pattern that could repeat in future CLIs?
  │   YES → Add to the relevant plugin reference file:
  │   ├── auth-strategies.md "Known Pitfalls" table    (auth bugs)
  │   ├── google-batchexecute.md                       (RPC/batchexecute bugs)
  │   ├── ssr-patterns.md "HTML Scraping Pitfalls"     (scraping bugs)

  │   └── traffic-patterns.md                          (protocol detection bugs)
  │
  ├── Is it a universal lesson (applies to ALL CLIs)?
  │   YES → Add to HARNESS.md "Lessons Learned" cross-reference table
  │
  └── Does it change a critical convention?
      YES → Update CLAUDE.md "Critical Conventions" section
New Command Added → Full Update Chain
New command added to a CLI
  ├── .claude/skills/<app>-cli/SKILL.md     (add command + options + output fields)
  ├── <app>_cli.py _print_repl_help()        (add to REPL help)
  ├── <app>/agent-harness/<APP>.md           (add endpoint to API map)
  ├── README.md (repo root)                  (if it changes the CLI's capabilities)
  └── Run: cli-web-<app> <new-cmd> --json    (verify output matches skill docs)
Auth/Protection Change → Cross-Cutting Updates
Auth behavior changed
  ├── auth-strategies.md                     (patterns, pitfalls, code examples)
  ├── HARNESS.md lessons table               (cross-reference)

  ├── standards/SKILL.md                     (smoke test steps)
  └── CLAUDE.md                              (critical conventions)

Anti-bot/protection change (e.g., httpx → curl_cffi)
  ├── protection-detection.md                (strategy, detection)
  ├── <app>/agent-harness/<APP>.md           (site profile, HTTP client)

  ├── CLAUDE.md generated CLIs table         (protocol column)
  └── README.md (repo root)                  (protocol column)

Sync Check Procedure

Step 1: Identify What Changed
bash
# Check git diff for changed files
git diff --name-only HEAD
# Or if already committed:
git diff --name-only HEAD~1
Step 2: Classify the Change

Ask yourself:

  • Which CLI? Extract from file path (booking, futbin, notebooklm, etc.)
  • What type of change?
    • Bug fix → needs lesson propagation?
    • New command → needs skill + REPL + SOP update?
    • Auth change → cross-cutting update?
    • Dependency change → setup.py + README?
    • RPC/protocol change → SOP + batchexecute ref?
Step 3: Run Verification Commands

For the affected CLI:

bash
# Verify commands match skill docs
cli-web-<app> --help
cli-web-<app> <subgroup> --help

# Verify output fields match skill docs
cli-web-<app> <primary-command> --json | head -20

# Verify auth works (if auth CLI)
cli-web-<app> auth status --json
Step 4: Check Each Downstream File

For each file in the dependency chain above:

  1. Read the file
  2. Find the section that relates to your change
  3. Verify it matches the current code behavior
  4. Update if stale
Show full SKILL.md (186 more words)Show less
Step 5: Plugin Lesson Check (Bug Fixes Only)

If you fixed a bug, ask:

"Would this bug happen again if someone generated a new CLI tomorrow?"

If YES, add it to the appropriate plugin reference file:

Bug CategoryAdd To
Auth (cookies, login, tokens, refresh)auth-strategies.md Known Pitfalls
RPC (wrong IDs, wrong params, parsing)google-batchexecute.md
HTML scraping (selectors, noise, slugs)ssr-patterns.md HTML Scraping Pitfalls
Anti-bot (blocked, 401, 403, challenges)protection-detection.md
Output (raw data leak, wrong fields)testing/SKILL.md CLI Output Sanity Checks
Downloads (URLs, cookies, formats)auth-strategies.md Known Pitfalls
General (UTF-8, Windows, rate limits)HARNESS.md Lessons table + relevant ref

Format for Known Pitfalls: | Symptom | Cause | Fix |

Step 6: Verify with --json

After all updates, run one command per affected CLI with --json to confirm the output still matches what the skill documents.
