A Claude Code skill that scans your ~/.claude/ setup, asks four questions, and gives you a personalized card.
6 archetypes. 4 dimensions. Your card is your ticket.
By Paul Schraven · LinkedIn · built to meet other people who point AI at their own workflow.
curl -L -o ~/.claude/commands/recursive.md https://github.com/paulschraven/recursive/releases/latest/download/recursive.mdThis pulls the latest tagged release (not main), so your card is never rendered from a mid-refactor commit. -L follows GitHub's redirect from the /latest/ alias to the current release asset.
Verify: open Claude Code and run /recursive. You should see the R E C U R S I V E banner. Current version is shown in the card footer after you complete the flow.
Or: download recursive.md from the latest release and drop it in ~/.claude/commands/.
/recursive
That's it. Two minutes. You get a card.
- Quick local scan — reads file counts in
~/.claude/(CLAUDE.md, custom commands, custom skills, MCP servers, projects, memory files). Counts only, no contents. - Four questions — automation depth, org-wide contribution, build posture, and one open-ended (voice-friendly) describe-your-setup question.
- A draft card — you review and redact anything you don't want to share.
- The final card — branded, screenshottable, with your Recursive ID baked in.
| Archetype | Vibe |
|---|---|
| The Conductor | Firing on every cylinder. We're impressed and slightly suspicious. |
| The Architect | Tools as raw material. The cockpit is gorgeous. |
| The Operator | AI scaled across the org. You moved a whole company up the curve. |
| The Tinkerer | Deep personal stack, narrow blast radius. Next move is obvious. |
| The Pragmatist | Solid across the board. Honestly underrated. |
| The Apprentice | Early. Hungry. The instinct is there. |

- No data leaves your machine
- No API calls beyond the model you're already talking to
- No file contents shared anywhere — only counts
- No PII in the output
- You always review the card before anything is shareable
