**Plugin root:** This is a Claude Code plugin, NOT a CLI tool. Do NOT search via `which`, `npm list`, `pip list`, or `brew list`. This file is at `<plugin_root>/commands/`. All scripts: `<plugin_root>/bin/`. Read the matching `skills/*/SKILL.md` for the full flow.

/nyann:explain-state

Wraps `bin/explain-state.sh`. Read-only. Aggregates:

  • Stack detection (language, framework, package_manager, confidence)
  • Inferred profile (from CLAUDE.md or `--profile`)
  • Branching strategy + base branches (from profile)
  • Hook signals (husky / pre-commit.com / nyann core)
  • CLAUDE.md presence + size + router markers
  • 5 most recent commits

Use as a first-look diagnostic before `doctor` (audit) or `bootstrap-project` (setup/retrofit).

See `skills/explain-state/SKILL.md` for what to read back to the user.
