evaluate-existing-solutions

evaluate-existing-solutions is a Codebase audits & code health skill for AI agents, published by citypaul in the .dotfiles repository on GitHub. Skillspace rates evaluate-existing-solutions C (71/100) and it passed the safety scan; the rating is based on static analysis only.

Research and compare established libraries, open-source tools and applications, managed services, and standard, framework, or platform primitives against an explicit bespoke baseline before committing to a material generic mechanism. Use for library/tool recommendations, build-versus-adopt questions, custom-mechanism replacement, consequential unresolved dependencies, or due diligence on a named but newly introduced material dependency. Produces an evidence-backed adopt, adapt, combine, build, defer, or do-nothing proposal. For repository-wide opportunity discovery use improve-codebase-architecture first and evaluate only the selected job. Not for agent-skill discovery, constraints still needing specification, trivial logic/glue, routine use of an adopted tool, or ordinary fixes.
