SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Setting up a new project from scratch involves many boilerplate steps: choosing the right generator, running the correct scaffolding command with proper flags, installing dependencies, and creating configuration files. This Skill provides the exact commands and rules for initializing complete projects in a VS Code workspace, so the AI scaffolds the full structure correctly instead of creating files one by one. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Framework Scaffolding: Runs the official generators for VS Code extensions (Yeoman generator-code), Next.js (create-next-app), and Vite (create-vite) with documented argument options. - MCP Server Initialization: Sets up Model Context Protocol servers in TypeScript, Python, C#, Java, or Kotlin, including SDK lookup, copilot-instructions.md updates, and .vscode/mcp.json configuration. - Python Project Templates: Creates Python script or package projects via the VS Code Python Environments extension commands. - Use Case: A user asks to "create a new Next.js project with Tailwind and TypeScript" in an empty workspace folder, and the Skill directs the agent to run create-next-app with the correct flags, producing a ready-to-run application. ## Quick Start Ask the AI to set up a new project, for example: create a new Vite React TypeScript project in this empty workspace folder.

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I create a new Next.js project in VS Code?▼

Run npx create-next-app@latest . in an empty workspace folder. The command supports flags like --ts for TypeScript, --tailwind for Tailwind CSS, --eslint, --app for the App Router, and --src-dir for a src directory layout.

How to scaffold a VS Code extension with Yeoman?▼

Run npx --package yo --package generator-code -- yo code . --skipOpen to scaffold a VS Code extension. You can set the extension type with -t (ts, js, colortheme, snippets, and more), the display name with -n, and the package manager with --pkgManager.

What templates does create-vite support?▼

create-vite supports templates for vanilla, Vue, React, Preact, Lit, Svelte, Solid, and Qwik, each available in JavaScript or TypeScript variants. Pass the template with the -t flag, for example react-ts or vue.

How do I set up an MCP server project in VS Code?▼

Check the modelcontextprotocol GitHub organization for the SDK matching your language, defaulting to TypeScript. Then create an mcp.json file in the .vscode folder defining the server name, stdio type, run command, and arguments so VS Code can debug it.

When should I not use project scaffolding?▼

Do not use full project scaffolding when creating single files, adding components to existing projects, or modifying existing code. It is designed only for initializing complete projects in empty folders or freshly created workspaces.

Can I create a Python package project in VS Code?▼

Yes, with the ms-python.python and ms-python.vscode-python-envs extensions installed, invoke the python-envs.createNewProjectFromTemplate command with the python-package template, a package name, and a target path.
