SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) and references (resource) components.

Scans any NestJS backend project to extract its complete architecture, patterns, coding style, and conventions — then generates a self-contained skill that creates new projects following those exact patterns. Optionally uses Repomix to pack the codebase first. Also generates a .context/ directory for tool-agnostic compatibility (Cursor, Copilot, etc.). Use this skill whenever someone wants to analyze a NestJS codebase and turn its patterns into a reusable generator, capture coding standards from an existing backend, create a "project template" based on a real codebase, or replicate an architecture for a new API. Triggers: "scan my project", "extract patterns", "create a generator from this code", "turn this into a template", "make a skill from my app", "scan my NestJS project", "analyze my backend", "scan my Nest API".

FAQPage Schema

How do I extract architectural patterns from an existing NestJS codebase?▼

To extract architectural patterns from a NestJS codebase, scan the project's modules, controllers, providers, guards, and interceptors to capture its coding conventions. This process analyzes the existing backend architecture and transforms it into a self-contained, reusable project generator skill.

What is the best way to create a reusable template from a real NestJS backend project?▼

Creating a reusable template from a NestJS backend involves scanning the real codebase to capture its ORM configurations and architectural style, then generating a self-contained skill. This output serves as a precise template that replicates your API architecture for new projects.

Do I need Repomix to scan my NestJS project and generate a template?▼

Repomix is an optional dependency used to pack the NestJS codebase before scanning. The project scanner requires a YAML frontmatter with a name and description to function, but it can analyze your backend architecture and extract patterns without necessarily using Repomix.

Can I use the generated NestJS architecture skill with other AI coding tools like Cursor or Copilot?▼

Yes, the generated NestJS architecture skill is tool-agnostic and includes a generated .context/ directory. This ensures compatibility with AI coding assistants like Cursor and Copilot, allowing you to apply the extracted coding standards across different development environments.

What specific components does the NestJS project scanner analyze to capture coding conventions?▼

The NestJS project scanner analyzes modules, controllers, providers, guards, interceptors, and ORM configurations to capture coding conventions. By examining these backend components, it accurately extracts your application's complete architectural patterns and structural design.
