SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes assets (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

Create code repositories from a modular template, enabling teams to adopt, configure, or remove capabilities in parts, ensuring consistency with tools like Make, pre-commit git hooks, Docker, and quality checks.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Modular capabilities can be copied from the assets subtree into target repositories and applied independently.
  • Central governance is preserved while allowing teams to tailor tooling, configuration, and documentation.
  • Use case: adopt a specific capability (e.g., core Make system, pre-commit hooks) by copying from the assets subtree into the target repository and integrating it with the existing project, then run the verification workflow.

Quick Start

Copy the desired capability from .github/skills/repository-template/assets/ into your target repository and run make config to integrate, then verify with make lint and make test.

Frequently Asked Questions about repository-template

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

FAQPage Schema
How do I apply a modular repository template to an existing project?▼

Pre-commit git hooks within a repository template are integrated by copying the hook capability from the assets subtree into your project, updating the Makefile base, and running the verification workflow to ensure checks are active.

Can I adopt only specific capabilities like Make targets and Docker configurations instead of the whole template?▼

Yes, you can adopt specific capabilities independently. The repository template is modular, allowing you to selectively copy capabilities like Make targets, Docker configurations, or quality gates into existing projects without adopting the entire template.

What is a repository template used for in software engineering?▼

A repository template is used to create code repositories from a modular baseline, enabling teams to adopt and configure tooling like Make, pre-commit git hooks, and quality checks to ensure consistency across projects while preserving central governance.

Do I need a local Makefile to use this repository template system?▼

Yes, a local Makefile base is required. The repository template workflow depends on a Makefile to copy assets, update configurations, and run controlled workflows like `make config` or `make lint` and `make test` to verify integration.

What's the best way to set up quality gates and governance checks across multiple repositories?▼

The best way to set up quality gates across multiple repositories is using a modular repository template that copies predefined quality checks and tooling from a central assets subtree into target projects, ensuring consistent governance and verification.
