Development Prompt Setup

This skill configures the current session with a comprehensive set of development guidelines. It combines universal "Clean Code" principles with language-specific best practices.

Usage

1. •Detection: The skill will first attempt to detect the programming language of the current directory.
2. •Confirmation: It will ask you to confirm the detected language or select a different one.
3. •Application: It will generate the guidelines and output them to the conversation, effectively "priming" the session.
4. •Persistence: It will offer to save these guidelines to a file (e.g., CLAUDE.md, .cursorrules, or PROJECT_RULES.md) for future use.

Instructions for Claude

1. •Run Detection: Execute scripts/detect_language.py to guess the language.
2. •Interact:
   • •If confidence is "high" -> Inform the user: "Detected [Language]. Applying development context." (Ask if they want to switch if it looks wrong, but proceed).
   • •If confidence is "low/medium" or result is null -> Ask the user: "I see this might be a [Detected] project, but I'm not sure. Which context should I apply? (Options: Python, Rust, JavaScript, Scripting, General Only)".
3. •Compose: Execute scripts/compose_prompt.py [language] (or just scripts/compose_prompt.py for General Only).
4. •Display: Output the content of the generated prompt in a code block or readable format.
5. •Persist: Ask the user: "Would you like me to save these rules to a file (e.g., CLAUDE.md or .cursorrules) for this project?"
   • •If yes, use Write tool to save it to the requested filename.
