cli-forge-scaffold

To scaffold a Rust CLI project, this tool automates template expansion with token substitution to generate a baseline package structure including Cargo.toml, src/, and tests/ directories for a clean starting point.

Automated scaffolding for Rust CLI skills generates a compliant bootstrap project from canonical templates, eliminating manual boilerplate work and ensuring required contracts and documentation are in place.

Yes, the scaffold process validates the generated Rust project by running cargo build, clippy, fmt, and test commands to ensure a clean baseline and functional starting point before extension.

Yes, you can use this scaffolding tool with an approved cli-plan.yml file to align with project-wide planning contracts and generate a scaffold receipt for deferred capabilities when in-scope features are indicated.

A scaffolded Rust CLI baseline includes Cargo.toml, src/ and tests/ directories, SKILL.md, README.md, and support files, all created through template expansion with token substitution for consistent contracts.

Template-based scaffolding ensures a compliant bootstrap with documented contracts and consistent structure, eliminating boilerplate work and reducing errors compared to manually creating a Rust CLI project from scratch.
