Skill
Project Setup
Scaffold a new project from technical docs: structure, node:test, tooling, and CI.
// workflow;Behaviour
What it does
- Reads docs/technical/tech-stack.md and honours every human-locked decision
- Creates the repo structure, package.json, and toolchain from the docs
- Wires up node:test, linting, and CI so the suite runs green on zero tests
- Seeds CLAUDE.md or AGENTS.md from engineering guidelines
- Stops at a runnable skeleton with no feature implementation
- Hands off to executing-plans for the build loop
When to use
Good fits
Greenfield projects with an approved technical doc set
When docs exist but there is no working skeleton yet
Before executing-plans on a new codebase

Step 6 of 8 · Build
Part of the design-to-ship pipeline: brainstorming → technical-documentation → conformance-check → reconciling-changes → planning → project-setup → executing-plans → shipping. Install the full set for structured feature work.

Example prompt
Project Setup
Scaffold this repo from docs/technical/ so we can start the TDD build loop.
Flow
How the skill works
- Read tech-stack, architecture, and engineering-guidelines docs
- Summarise the toolchain and confirm agent-discretion choices
- Scaffold structure, dependencies, test runner, and CI
- Verify npm test and lint pass on an empty suite
- Hand off to executing-plans
