SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Prepare the local Spec Kit plugin runtime by installing dependencies, creating runtime directories, generating .env, and building TypeScript artifacts when needed. Use when the user asks to "setup runtime", "initialize plugin runtime", "تهيئة runtime", or "جهّز تشغيل البلاجن".

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Automates environment setup by installing dependencies, creating necessary folders (.plugin-data, memory, skills_library), and preparing the runtime scaffolding.
  • Generates the .env file when missing and ensures the environment is ready for local development.
  • Builds TypeScript artifacts when dist/ is absent to guarantee executable artifacts are available.

Quick Start

Run the provided setup-runtime.ps1 script to initialize the plugin runtime, install dependencies, create required directories, and generate the environment file if missing.

FAQPage Schema
How do I set up a Node.js plugin runtime after cloning a repository?

To set up a plugin runtime, run the provided setup-runtime.ps1 script to install dependencies, create runtime directories like .plugin-data, and build TypeScript artifacts. This ensures the local environment is ready for development.

Do I need PowerShell and Node.js to initialize a TypeScript plugin environment?

Yes, initializing the plugin runtime requires Node.js 20+, npm, and PowerShell 7+ to execute the repository scripts that install dependencies and build TypeScript artifacts.

What does it mean to generate a .env file during runtime setup?

Generating a .env file during runtime setup creates the missing environment configuration required for local development, ensuring the plugin has the necessary variables to operate correctly.

How to fix a broken TypeScript plugin environment after deleting node_modules or dist?

To recover a broken plugin runtime, run the setup-runtime.ps1 script to reinstall dependencies and rebuild TypeScript artifacts, restoring the necessary directories and executable files for development.

When should I run a plugin runtime initialization script?

Run the plugin runtime initialization script during first-time clones, when recovering after removing node_modules or dist, or when the local development environment is not yet ready and needs scaffolding.
