Does it support multiple directory locations?

Yes, it is configured to scan several roots simultaneously, including year-based folders, specific repository paths, and script directories.

Is the path encoding compatible with all operating systems?

The skill is specifically designed to encode local paths into a format that Claude Code can interpret correctly regardless of the host OS.

What happens if I delete or move a project?

The scanner identifies projects that are no longer at their registered path and updates the registry to reflect they are missing or moved.

How does the scanner identify different project types?

The scanner uses predefined directory patterns and structural markers to automatically categorize projects during the discovery process.

Productivity & Workflow

Automates the discovery and indexing of local code projects across multiple directory roots to keep your workspace registry synchronized.

The Project Registry Scanner is an essential infrastructure utility for developers managing extensive local codebases. It automates the tedious task of manual project tracking by scanning predefined directory roots—including year-organized folders, hosting repositories, and script directories. The skill utilizes intelligent pattern matching to detect project types, encodes paths for Claude-specific compatibility, and generates a centralized JSON registry. This provides Claude with a comprehensive map of your development environment, enabling faster navigation and better context during coding sessions.
