How to Use This Skill

When Creating Commands

Instead of writing from scratch:

yaml

---
description: ???
---

What should this do?

Use command patterns from common-commands.json:

yaml

---
description: Run development server with hot-reload
argument-hint: [--port PORT]
allowed-tools: Bash(*)
---

Start the {FRAMEWORK} development server with hot-reload enabled.

Arguments:
- $1: Port number (optional, defaults to {DEFAULT_PORT})

Usage:
- `/{COMMAND}` - Start on default port
- `/{COMMAND} 8080` - Start on custom port

This will:
1. Check if port is available
2. Start development server
3. Display access URL

When Creating Agents

Instead of starting blank:

yaml

---
name: ???
description: ???
---

What should this agent do?

Use agent patterns from common-agents.json:

yaml

---
name: {framework}-security
description: PROACTIVELY review {FRAMEWORK} code for security vulnerabilities, OWASP risks, and framework-specific security issues. MUST BE USED when reviewing authentication, permissions, user input handling, or when explicitly requested for security review.
tools: Read, Grep, Bash
model: sonnet
---

You are a {FRAMEWORK} security expert specializing in identifying and preventing security vulnerabilities.

## Your Responsibilities

1. **OWASP Top 10 Prevention**
   - SQL Injection / NoSQL Injection
   - XSS (Cross-Site Scripting)
   - CSRF (Cross-Site Request Forgery)
   - Authentication/Authorization flaws
   ...

When Creating Documentation

Use templates from documentation-templates/:

Read documentation-templates/README_template.md and fill in framework-specific content:

•Replace {FRAMEWORK_NAME} with actual framework
•Replace {VERSION} with version info
•Fill in {FEATURES_LIST} with actual features
•Customize {PROJECT_STRUCTURE} with real directory tree
•Add actual commands to {COMMANDS_TABLE}

When Choosing Template Scope

Reference reference.md for guidance:

For a minimal starter:

•5-6 essential commands (dev, test, lint, format, create-*)
•3 core agents (security, framework-expert, test-generator)
•1-2 skills (basic patterns, simple generator)

For a standard template:

•10-12 commands (add DB commands, deployment, etc.)
•5-6 agents (add performance, domain-specific agents)
•3-4 skills (advanced patterns, validators)

For a comprehensive template:

•12-15 commands (add CI/CD, monitoring, advanced ops)
•6-8 agents (add architecture, optimization, specialized)
•4-5 skills (complete pattern library)

When Using Presets

Load a preset from presets/ directory:

json

// presets/minimal-backend-api.json
{
  "template_type": "backend-api",
  "depth": "minimal",
  "commands": ["dev", "test", "lint", "format", "create-route"],
  "agents": ["security", "api-expert", "test-generator"],
  "skills": ["api-patterns"],
  "features": {
    "database": true,
    "auth": false,
    "real_time": false,
    "file_uploads": false
  }
}

Use this as a starting point and customize based on specific framework and user requirements.

Working with Patterns

Step 1: Identify Similar Templates

Before creating a new template, find existing templates that are similar:

New Python backend → Study Django, Flask, FastAPI templates New JavaScript frontend → Study React template New data application → Study Streamlit template New scraping tool → Study Scrapy template New desktop app → Study Tkinter template

Step 2: Extract Relevant Patterns

Look at the similar template's:

•.claude/commands/ - What commands do they have?
•.claude/agents/ - What agent roles are defined?
•.claude/skills/ - What skills are provided?
•CLAUDE.md - What sections and content structure?
•README.md - How is it organized?

Step 3: Adapt to New Framework

Take patterns and customize:

•Replace framework names
•Adjust tool/package names
•Modify code examples
•Update best practices
•Adapt conventions

Step 4: Validate Completeness

Check against reference patterns:

•✅ Have 10-12 commands covering all categories?
•✅ Have 5-6 agents covering all roles?
•✅ Have 3-4 skills covering key needs?
•✅ Documentation is comprehensive?
•✅ Framework files are included?

Best Practices

1. Don't Reinvent the Wheel

If a pattern exists in another template and can be adapted, use it. This ensures consistency and quality.

Example: The security agent pattern works for all frameworks - just change framework-specific vulnerabilities.

2. Maintain Pattern Consistency

When creating similar components across templates:

•Use the same naming conventions
•Use the same frontmatter fields
•Use the same section structures
•Use similar examples and explanations

3. Learn from Complete Templates

The 6 complete templates (Django, React, Flask, Tkinter, Streamlit, Scrapy) are excellent:

•Study their structures before creating new templates
•Copy their documentation styles
•Reuse their agent methodologies
•Adapt their skill patterns

4. Use Presets as Starting Points

For quick template creation:

•Select appropriate preset (backend, frontend, desktop, data)
•Load preset configuration
•Customize for specific framework
•Expand based on user requirements
•Validate completeness

5. Reference Documentation

Point users to:

•reference.md for quantitative patterns
•common-commands.json for command structures
•common-agents.json for agent templates
•documentation-templates/ for doc structures

Integration with Template Creation

Used By Template-Creator

The template-creator agent should:

•Read reference.md to understand patterns
•Use common-commands.json for command files
•Use common-agents.json for agent files
•Use documentation-templates/ for docs
•Reference presets for scope guidance

Used By Template-Wizard

The template-wizard agent should:

•Reference presets for depth recommendations
•Use reference.md for explaining what will be created
•Show examples from existing templates

Used By Developers

Manual template creators should:

•Study reference.md for patterns
•Copy structures from similar templates
•Use JSON files as checklists
•Follow documentation templates

When to Use This Skill

Use this skill when:

•Creating a new project template
•Adding commands/agents/skills to a template
•Need examples of how to structure components
•Want to ensure consistency with existing templates
•Need to explain patterns to users
•Deciding what should be included in a template

Success Metrics

This skill is successful when:

•✅ New templates follow the same patterns as existing ones
•✅ Template creation is faster (reuse vs create from scratch)
•✅ Template quality is consistent across frameworks
•✅ Common components (security agent, etc.) are standardized
•✅ Documentation follows consistent structure
•✅ Developers can easily understand what to include

Remember: The goal is consistency, quality, and speed. Every template should feel like it belongs to the same family while being appropriately customized for its specific framework.
