scaffold-entity-files

To generate custom entity extension files, you scaffold schema.json, README.md, and optional instance files using validated schemas. This ensures consistent workspace automation while respecting mutation gates and preventing overwrites of existing sidecar extension files.

Entity scaffolding is the automated process of creating schema-compliant custom entity files and sidecar extensions for brand workspaces. You need it when designing new brand entities after schema design phases are complete, ensuring required metadata and field tracking conventions are applied.

Safe workspace updates require mutation-gated file writes that prevent overwrites and keep extension files separated from skill definitions. This protects the skills namespace during workspace updates while applying schema compliance to all newly generated sidecar extension files.

Yes, a validated schema is required before scaffolding custom entity files. The skill applies schema compliance during file generation, meaning schema design phases must be complete beforehand to ensure README creation, instance population, and registration preparation function correctly.

The best way to create sidecar extension files is through automated scaffolding that writes required metadata and field tracking conventions directly. This approach enforces schema validation and mutation gates, avoiding manual file creation errors while preparing files for registration.

Scaffolding entity files requires mutation gates to prevent accidental overwrites of existing extensions, while skills namespace protection ensures extension files remain separated from skill definitions during workspace updates. These constraints maintain file integrity and schema compliance across brand workspaces.
