setup-code-scaffolding

Set up pre-commit hooks and linting by assessing the project to identify missing quality tools, then configuring strict formatting and static analysis checks. The Skill installs hooks that enforce quality before code is committed.

Add static analysis and test coverage by evaluating existing tooling for gaps and bootstrapping strict quality checks across common software stacks. The Skill establishes an enforceable baseline before feature work or CI hardening begins.

Code quality scaffolding works across common software stacks by detecting the project language and applying ecosystem-appropriate tools. It configures linting, formatting, and dependency auditing based on the specific environment found during assessment.

Dependency auditing and documentation coverage are configured automatically alongside linting and test coverage. The scaffolding process detects existing tooling gaps, applies strict checks, and writes a developer guide with standardized commands.

Pre-commit hooks and strict formatting checks are needed to remove manual effort and keep work consistent and safe. They enforce a reliable code-quality baseline that standardizes development before reviews or CI hardening begins.

Generate an AGENTS.md or CLAUDE.md development guide by writing a concise command reference for humans and coding agents. This standardizes development commands as part of the code quality scaffolding setup process.
