**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:gen-claudemd

Wraps `bin/gen-claudemd.sh`. Regenerates only the `<!-- nyann:start -->` / `<!-- nyann:end -->` block; user content outside markers is preserved verbatim.

When to invoke

  • Profile changed and CLAUDE.md is stale → run this.
  • Added new docs or restructured workspaces → run this.
  • After `/nyann:migrate-profile` if CLAUDE.md wasn't auto-refreshed.

Output

The managed block is rewritten in-place. Reports byte count and whether the soft cap (3 KB) was exceeded.

Size budgets

  • **3 KB soft**: warning emitted; suggest `/nyann:optimize-claudemd`.
  • **8 KB hard**: script refuses unless `--force` is passed.
