SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Designers and PMs who want to change the Buildertrend frontend often lack Git and Azure DevOps expertise, making it risky and confusing to edit code, save work, and submit changes for review. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Safe Copy Setup: Coordinates with the branch-management skill so users work on their own copy instead of the main project. - Plain-English Guidance: Translates Git concepts like branches, commits, and pull requests into simple language throughout the workflow. - End-to-End Submission: Saves changes with formatted messages, pushes to Azure DevOps, and creates a review request targeting the master branch. - Use Case: A designer wants to update a button color in BTNet. The skill sets up a safe copy, helps edit the file, saves the change, and submits it for a developer to review. ## Quick Start Ask Claude to help you make a change to the Buildertrend frontend and submit it for review.

Frequently Asked Questions about contribute

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I make changes to the Buildertrend frontend without coding experience?▼

Use the contribute skill, which walks you through editing files in plain English. It sets up a safe copy of the project, helps you make edits, saves your work, and submits it for a teammate to review.

How do I submit frontend changes for review in Azure DevOps?▼

The skill pushes your saved changes with git push, then creates a pull request via Azure DevOps MCP tools with a plain-English title and description targeting the master branch. You receive a link to track the review status.

What should I do if git push fails with an authentication error?▼

Your Azure DevOps credentials have likely expired. Visit your Azure DevOps Git credentials page, generate a new password, and retry the push. The skill will prompt you through this recovery step.

Can non-technical users resolve merge conflicts with this skill?▼

No. Merge conflicts are beyond the skill's scope for non-technical users. If your changes conflict with someone else's work, the skill directs you to contact a designated teammate for help.

Does the contribute skill work without the frontend setup completed?▼

No. It depends on the branch-management, save, and preview skills from the frontend-setup plugin, and requires the BTNet project downloaded and Azure DevOps connected via first-time-setup.
