SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill streamlines adding or switching visual and content templates for generated case studies by installing premium or custom template packs into the project's case study configuration, removing manual file copying and configuration friction.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Category-aware installation: Places templates under .case-study/templates/{category}/{template-name} and recognizes categories like portfolio, marketing, pitch-deck, and linkedin.
  • Config updates and safety: Updates .case-study/config.json to select built-in themes and ensures paid templates are excluded from version control by recommending .gitignore updates.
  • Use Case: A developer who purchased a premium portfolio theme can provide a downloaded template folder and have the Skill install files, register the category, and instruct how to regenerate output.

Quick Start
