What conventions does OAT skill creation enforce for workflow development?▼

OAT skill creation enforces mode assertions, progress banners, and project-root resolution. These conventions ensure consistency and maintainability across newly developed workflow features.

How do I register a new workflow skill for distribution via oat init tools?▼

Registering a skill for oat init tools distribution involves updating CLI scripts and TypeScript constants. This scaffolding process automatically registers the new workflow skill in the environment.

Do I need to manually configure TypeScript constants when creating an OAT skill?▼

No manual TypeScript constant configuration is needed. The scaffolding process automatically handles registration by updating relevant CLI scripts and TypeScript constants during skill creation.

What is the best way to ensure my new code generation skill follows OAT project standards?▼

The best way to ensure standards compliance is using an automated scaffolding tool. It generates the SKILL.md boilerplate and enforces required mode assertions and project-root resolution.
