SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This skill solves the friction of manually creating complex, lint-compliant directory structures for educational content, ensuring that every exercise, section, and variant follows the required project standards.

Core Features & Use Cases

Standardized Scaffolding: Automatically generates nested directories for sections and exercises with the correct naming conventions.
Automated Stubbing: Creates required readme files and boilerplate structures for problem, solution, and explainer variants.
Validation: Integrates with the internal CLI to ensure the generated structure passes all linting rules immediately upon creation.

Quick Start

Ask the assistant to scaffold a new section named 05-memory-skill-building with exercises 05.01, 05.02, and 05.03 using the scaffold-exercises skill.

FAQPage Schema

How do I automatically generate directory structures for course exercises?▼

You can scaffold course exercises by automatically generating standardized, nested directory structures for educational sections, complete with correct naming conventions and required boilerplate files.

What is the best way to create lint-compliant educational content directories?▼

Creating lint-compliant educational content directories is best handled by automated scaffolding tools that validate output against internal linting rules immediately upon creation, ensuring project-specific file requirements are met without manual checks.

How do I scaffold problem, solution, and explainer variants for course modules?▼

You can scaffold problem, solution, and explainer variants by using automated stubbing features that generate the required readme files and boilerplate structures for each specific exercise variant within a section-based hierarchy.

Do I need external dependencies to automate course design scaffolding?▼

No external dependencies are required to automate course design scaffolding, as the skill operates independently to generate standardized directory structures and validate them against internal CLI linting rules.

Why does my manually created course content fail project linting rules?▼

Manually created course content often fails project linting rules due to inconsistent naming conventions or missing boilerplate files, which automated scaffolding prevents by validating output immediately upon directory creation.
