C:/Program Files/Git/doctor recommends removing extensions solely for zero usage, with no allowance for "not yet trained on it"
/doctor flags MCP servers/skills with zero tool calls in the scan window as
"unused, safe to remove" — but zero usage isn't always disuse. In my case
(debugger-mcp, lsp-mcp, screenshot, context7-mcp skill) it was because I
haven't had time to learn/train on them yet, not because I don't want them.
The tool has no way to express "keep this, I just haven't gotten to it" other
than declining the whole cleanup proposal.
Separately: the full /doctor run took ~65 minutes of tool calls (installation
checks, transcript scanning across 50 sessions, MCP/skill usage aggregation,
CLAUDE.md scanning) before reaching the confirmation question — a heavy time
cost for a diagnostic command, especially when the answer ends up being
"apply nothing."
Suggestions:
- Don't frame low/zero usage as a removal recommendation by default when the
extension was recently installed/enabled — ask about intent instead of
proposing disablement.
- Consider a lighter/faster mode, or clearer upfront signal of how long the
full scan will take.
