Test sparX Setup
Quick verification that everything is wired up correctly. Runs a series of checks and reports status.
Process
Run all checks (or a subset if the user specifies). Present results as a checklist.
1. Core Setup
✅ / ❌ CLAUDE.md loaded — check that Phoenix algorithm context is available
✅ / ❌ Reference docs exist — check reference/scoring.md, reference/penalties.md, etc.
✅ / ❌ Skills discovered — list all skills Claude can see (should be 15)
How to verify:
- Read
CLAUDE.mdand confirm it contains "Phoenix Algorithm" - Check that
reference/scoring.mdexists - List available skills and count them
2. Skill Smoke Test
Run a quick /hooks generation to prove the content pipeline works:
Generate 3 hooks for: "a new open-source developer tool"
Pass criteria:
- Produces 3 distinct hooks
- Each is under 280 characters
- No engagement bait phrases
- Phoenix Score block appears
✅ / ❌ Skill pipeline — /hooks produced scored output
3. Remotion (optional)
Check if the Remotion project exists:
ls marketing/remotion.config.ts 2>/dev/null
✅ / ❌ Remotion project — marketing/ directory with remotion.config.ts
✅ / ❌ Remotion skills — marketing/.claude/skills/remotion-best-practices/SKILL.md
✅ / ❌ Tailwind configured — marketing/tailwind.config.ts or similar
If not installed:
⬜ Remotion not installed — run: pnpm create video --blank marketing
4. Browser Integration (optional)
Check if claude-in-chrome is available by attempting to get tab context:
mcp__claude-in-chrome__tabs_context_mcp()
✅ / ❌ Chrome connection — claude-in-chrome responds
✅ / ❌ Can create tab — tabs_create_mcp succeeds
If not available:
⬜ Chrome not connected — install claude-in-chrome extension
5. Optional Integrations
Check environment for optional integrations:
✅ / ❌ / ⬜ OpenTweet MCP — check if opentweet tools are available
✅ / ❌ / ⬜ last30days — check if ~/.claude/skills/last30days/SKILL.md exists
✅ / ❌ / ⬜ X API — check if TWITTER_API_KEY env var is set
Output
Present a summary dashboard:
