What problem does it solve?

Creating and documenting Paperclip plugins often involves boilerplate scaffolding, ensuring consistent structure, and aligning with the plugin spec. This skill automates the end-to-end setup to accelerate plugin projects.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Scaffolding: Generates a standard plugin package skeleton with worker/UI surfaces and route conventions.
  • Documentation: Produces starter authoring docs and verification steps to match the plugin spec.
  • Verification: Validates manifest structure, scaffold flow, and project layout to produce a ready-to-build plugin.

Quick Start

Run the scaffold tool to create a new Paperclip plugin package in your target directory.

What is the best way to generate documentation and verification steps for a Paperclip plugin?

Generating documentation for a Paperclip plugin is handled by producing starter authoring docs and verification steps that match the plugin spec. This ensures your scaffold flow, worker entry points, and package structure are validated during generation.

Can I use this to add example plugins and update authoring docs for the Paperclip alpha SDK?

Yes, you can use this to add example plugins and update authoring docs. It configures proper plugin manifests and validates package structure to ensure complete compatibility with the Paperclip alpha SDK during the generation process.

What components are required when creating a Paperclip plugin?

Creating a Paperclip plugin requires configuring proper plugin manifest, worker, and UI entry points. This skill validates these required components, along with route conventions, to ensure your scaffold flow meets the project layout specifications.

Why does my manual Paperclip plugin scaffolding fail the verification steps?

Manual Paperclip plugin scaffolding often fails verification due to misaligned route conventions or missing UI entry points. This skill prevents errors by validating the manifest structure and package layout automatically during the generation process.
