# Breaking Changes Detection Skill

## Overview

Compares Claude Code API changes against our plugin ecosystem to detect compatibility issues.

## API Surface File

The `api-surface.md` reference contains our current known API:

- Hook types and their matchers

- Agent frontmatter fields

- Plugin manifest schema

- Skill SKILL.md format

- Script CLI flags used

## Detection Workflow

1. **Load** current api-surface.md

2. **Fetch** latest Claude Code API docs

3. **Diff** for added/changed/removed APIs

4. **Grep** our plugins for each changed API

5. **Report** with file:line impact mapping

## Impact Assessment

| Change Type | Severity | Example |

|-------------|----------|---------|

| Removed API | BREAKING | Hook type deleted |

| Changed schema | BREAKING | Frontmatter field renamed |

| New required field | BREAKING | Mandatory new param |

| Deprecated API | DEPRECATED | Old hook still works |

| New optional API | NEW | New hook type added |
