Do I need to have RepoPrompt installed to use this skill?

Yes, RepoPrompt must be running on your Mac with the MCP Server enabled and the CLI installed to your PATH for this skill to function.

How does this help with large codebases?

It uses 'codemapping' to provide structural overviews and allow you to 'demote' large files into summaries, helping you stay within token limits while maintaining full context of the project.

What is 'Pair Planning' in this context?

Pair Planning is a workflow where Claude Code uses a specialized planning engine (like RepoPrompt's) to architect a solution and generate a plan before executing file changes, reducing errors in complex tasks.

What is the purpose of the rp-cli skill?

The rp-cli skill acts as a proxy MCP client that allows Claude Code to access RepoPrompt's advanced features, such as multi-agent planning, codemapping, and deep workspace context, directly through shell commands.

Productivity & Workflow

Integrates RepoPrompt's multi-agent planning and context management tools into Claude Code via a powerful CLI proxy.

About

This skill bridges Claude Code with the RepoPrompt desktop environment, enabling a sophisticated 'Pair Planning' workflow. It allows Claude to leverage RepoPrompt’s specialized planning engines and advanced context management features—such as codemapping and granular file selection—directly through shell commands. By using rp-cli, developers can generate high-level architectural plans, manage workspace-wide context efficiently, and synchronize their terminal-based coding sessions with RepoPrompt's visual tools, making it ideal for navigating and refactoring complex codebases.
