Adopt an existing app

nuvyn adopt attaches the slash chain to an existing MAUI app. It writes .nuvyn/, skills, and adopt-report.md only.

Attach an existing MAUI app

nuvyn adopt is the existing-app door. It does not rewrite the host. There is no --here on init — adopt is how you attach the slash chain to a tree that already exists.

cd FieldApp
nuvyn adopt
nuvyn adopt --agent cursor
nuvyn adopt --path ../FieldApp --agent copilot
  1. Refuses if the folder is not MAUI (UseMaui csproj) or already has .nuvyn/.
  2. Scans MVVM, chrome, UI kit, and HTTP (read-only).
  3. Writes .nuvyn/, agent skills, empty specs/, and .nuvyn/adopt-report.md.
  4. Sets init-options.json "mode": "adopt".
  5. Runs maui-dev doctor when MauiDev is on PATH.
