  • Provide fork-mode support for development-focused projects, enabling additive fork contexts without altering upstream templates.
  • Produce standard config artifacts such as flake.nix and .gitignore to kickstart development workflows.

Quick Start

FAQPage Schema
How do I scaffold a complete project structure from a brief description?▼

To scaffold a project, provide a README.md or PROJECT.md description and run the project-setup process to generate directories like AGENTS.md, specs/, logs/, and environment templates automatically.

Can I generate AGENTS.md and specs directories for a research project?▼

Yes, generating AGENTS.md and specs/ directories supports research, teaching, grant, service, or development projects by creating context-aware planning, progress, and implementation guides from your project description.

Does project scaffolding work with Nix flakes and .gitignore configs?▼

Yes, project scaffolding produces standard config artifacts such as flake.nix and .gitignore alongside template-driven planning guides to kickstart development workflows immediately.

What is fork-mode support in project scaffolding?▼

Fork-mode support enables additive fork contexts for development-focused projects without altering upstream templates, ensuring your scaffolded repository structure maintains upstream compatibility.

How do I set up a repository structure for multiple project types?▼

Setting up a repository structure for multiple project types requires a single project description document; the scaffold applies context-aware templates to generate directories for research, teaching, grant, service, or development workflows.

What files do I need to start automated project scaffolding?▼

You need a project description document, typically a README.md or PROJECT.md, to start automated project scaffolding and generate the complete directory structure with planning and config artifacts.
