profile	Partition Claude skills by purpose: design, dev, qa, audit, minimal. Toggles symlinks between skills/ and skills-disabled/ to keep only the skills relevant to the current kind of work. Trigger: "profile", "skill profile", "design profile", "qa profile", "switch to design", "set profile", "active profile", "quel profil", "profil design", "active les skills design", "désactive gstack", "réduire le bruit gstack".	list | show <name> | current | apply <name> | set <name> | reset | gstack on|off | diff <a> <b>	Bash Read

profile

Activate a curated subset of skills for a specific kind of work — instead of carrying every gstack + personal skill in every session.

When to invoke

• User asks to switch profile (set design, profile dev, quel profil actif).
• User wants to see what's in a profile (profile show qa).
• User wants to compare profiles (profile diff design qa).
• User asks to "reduce gstack noise" or "only design skills".

Profiles available

Profile	Use case
web	Public website work — frontend + content + light dev
seo	SEO + GEO + W3C audit — search/AI indexability + standards
web-full	Production website end-to-end — web + seo combined
full	Maximum — web-full + plan + dev for /init-project MVP pipeline
backend	Backend / API / system dev — no design, no SEO
design	Visual QA, design systems, mockups, polish
dev	Daily code work — features, fixes, refactor, ship (any stack)
qa	Site testing, perf, canary, validation
audit	Comprehensive audit — security + SEO + GEO + W3C + perf + health
minimal	Strip all gstack skills (quiet session)

Mechanism

Each profile is a plain-text file under lib/profiles/<name>.profile that lists items + types:

Type	Toggle mechanism
gstack	symlink move skills/ ↔ skills-disabled/gstack__<name>
personal	symlink move skills/ ↔ skills-disabled/<name> (no prefix)
external	symlink move skills/ ↔ skills-disabled/<name>
plugin@<marketplace>	claude plugin enable|disable <name>@<marketplace> (auto)
mcp (known: magic)	delegate to lib/toggle-external.sh (uses .env)
mcp (other)	advisory — prints manual claude mcp add … command
cli	advisory only — reports installed/not-installed

Always-on plugins (caveman, security-guidance, superpowers) are protected — set will refuse to disable them even if the profile omits them. Managed plugins that set may disable when not in profile: ui-ux-pro-max@ui-ux-pro-max-skill, plugin-dev@claude-code-plugins, pr-review-toolkit@claude-code-plugins. Other plugins are never auto-toggled.

Commands

# List available profiles
bash "$HOME/.claude/lib/profile.sh" list

# Show profile contents + per-skill status
bash "$HOME/.claude/lib/profile.sh" show <name>

# Detect which profile is currently active
bash "$HOME/.claude/lib/profile.sh" current

# Enable skills in profile (additive — keeps others enabled)
bash "$HOME/.claude/lib/profile.sh" apply <name>

# Enable only skills in profile (disables non-listed gstack skills)
bash "$HOME/.claude/lib/profile.sh" set <name>

# Re-enable every gstack skill (undo any set/apply) — resets active label to "none"
bash "$HOME/.claude/lib/profile.sh" reset

# Toggle gstack only, keeping the active-profile label intact
bash "$HOME/.claude/lib/profile.sh" gstack on    # re-enable ALL gstack on top of current profile
bash "$HOME/.claude/lib/profile.sh" gstack off   # disable gstack skills not in the active profile

# Compare two profiles
bash "$HOME/.claude/lib/profile.sh" diff <a> <b>

Execution

Run lib/profile.sh with the user's arguments. If user passed nothing, default to list. If user named a profile without a verb (e.g. "profile design"), treat it as set <name> — but confirm first because set disables other gstack skills.

bash "$HOME/.claude/lib/profile.sh" $ARGUMENTS

Output policy

• After set / apply / reset / gstack on|off: show the count of skills moved + tell the user to start a new Claude session to pick up the changes (Claude scans skills/ at session start).
• After current: report the active profile + match percentage.
• After show: render the table directly — no extra commentary unless the user asks.

Tradeoffs to mention if asked

• gstack skills still depend on ~/.claude/skills/gstack/bin/ for telemetry, update-check, learnings — script doesn't touch that infra. Disabled skills are just hidden from Claude Code's scanner; the gstack repo stays installed.
• Profile changes do NOT toggle Claude Code plugins (ui-ux-pro-max, etc.) or MCP servers — those are advisory only. The user runs claude plugin enable|disable and claude mcp add|remove manually.
• set is destructive in the sense that it disables non-listed gstack skills. Use apply if the user wants additive behavior.
