SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

Blueprint bootstrap and repo-initialization for Blueprint projects, ensuring durable setup, repo-shape classification, and brownfield-aware guidance before later lifecycle work.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Greenfield/brownfield classification and defaults application during bootstrap.
  • Drafting initial planning artifacts and routing decisions to keep work traceable.
  • Guidance to route to /blu-map-codebase when brownfield mapping is required.

Quick Start

Start a new project by running /blu-new-project in the target repository to initialize durable bootstrap artifacts.

FAQPage Schema
How do I bootstrap a repository with durable project setup defaults?

To bootstrap a repository with durable setup, run `/blu-new-project` in the target directory. This automates initial project scaffolding, applies durable defaults, and generates early planning artifacts to keep workflows traceable.

What is brownfield repo classification and when do I need it?

Brownfield repo classification identifies existing codebases needing integration with new workflows. You need it when applying durable defaults and routing decisions to established repositories before later lifecycle steps, ensuring bootstrap artifacts match the current repo shape.

How do I generate initial planning artifacts and routing decisions for a new project?

Generate initial planning artifacts and routing decisions by executing `/blu-new-project` during repository bootstrap. This drafts the necessary scaffolding to establish traceable workflows and routes brownfield mapping requirements correctly.

Does repo initialization work with MCP runtime contracts?

Yes, repo initialization integrates with MCP runtime contracts during the bootstrap process. This ensures the generated bootstrap seed and scaffolded artifacts align with the required runtime contracts for Blueprint-managed workflows.

Can I use this bootstrap process for both greenfield and brownfield repositories?

Yes, the bootstrap process handles both greenfield and brownfield repositories. It classifies the repo shape and applies appropriate durable defaults, routing brownfield projects to `/blu-map-codebase` when detailed mapping is required.

When should I route to codebase mapping instead of using the bootstrap seed?

Route to codebase mapping when brownfield repository analysis is required beyond initial setup. The bootstrap process detects this during repo-shape classification and directs you to `/blu-map-codebase` for detailed existing code integration.
