SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Bootstrap a complete greenfield project by coordinating product discovery, tech stack decision, UI architecture, framework init, DevX setup, design system, infrastructure, and seed data so a runnable pipeline-ready project emerges from an empty directory.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • orchestrates product discovery, architecture ADR, tech stack decision, UI pattern inventory, infrastructure bootstrap, and seed data generation for a brand-new project.
  • creates a runnable scaffold that can enter the standard pipeline with server, tests, linting, and design system tokens.
  • Use Case: when starting a new product with no codebase, this skill bootstraps the full project skeleton and ready-to-run dev environment.

Quick Start

Run the greenfield-scaffold skill on an empty directory to bootstrap a complete, production-ready project scaffold.

FAQPage Schema
How do I bootstrap a greenfield project scaffold from scratch?▼

To bootstrap a greenfield project scaffold, this Skill automates end-to-end project initialization across product discovery, tech stack selection, and infrastructure setup to generate a runnable pipeline-ready codebase from an empty directory.

What does end-to-end project bootstrapping include for a new codebase?▼

End-to-end project bootstrapping includes capturing the product kickoff brief, creating architecture ADRs, generating infrastructure boilerplate, initializing design-system tokens, and producing seed data and project documentation.

Can I use this project scaffolding tool with any tech stack?▼

Yes, this project scaffolding tool applies across diverse tech stacks including frontend, backend, and infrastructure, guiding the orchestration of multiple agents to integrate your chosen frameworks and design-system components.

Do I need an existing codebase to initialize design-system tokens and DevX setup?▼

No, you do not need an existing codebase. The Skill is designed for brand-new projects with no code, initializing the DevX setup, design-system tokens, and testing environments directly within an empty directory.

What is the best way to automate architecture ADR creation and stack selection?▼

The best way to automate architecture ADR creation and stack selection is using an orchestration Skill that coordinates product discovery and infrastructure bootstrap, yielding a complete project skeleton ready for standard pipeline integration.
