SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

Understand Trellis architecture and customization entry points inside a user project to enable safe, targeted adjustments to the local Trellis runtime and platform integrations.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Decodes the local Trellis structure including the .trellis/ directory (workflow, config, tasks, spec, workspace, scripts) and common platform hooks, agents, and shared skill layers.
  • Guides modifications by clarifying where project-local conventions live (e.g., .trellis/spec/), and how to apply changes without editing upstream templates.
  • Supports tasks such as adjusting workflow routing, updating spec organization, and aligning platform directories with local requirements.

Quick Start

Read and understand the local Trellis architecture to safely modify the generated .trellis/ and platform directories in a project.

FAQPage Schema
How do I understand the .trellis directory structure in my project?

The .trellis directory structure organizes workflow, config, tasks, spec, workspace, and scripts subdirectories. It serves as the central hub for project-local Trellis architecture, enabling targeted customization of the runtime environment.

What is the best way to modify Trellis platform hooks without editing upstream templates?

To modify Trellis platform hooks without editing upstream templates, apply changes within project-local conventions like the .trellis/spec/ directory. This ensures safe, context-aware adjustments that override default behaviors without breaking base configurations.

Can I adjust task-routing and workflow settings generated by trellis init?

Yes, you can adjust task-routing and workflow settings generated by trellis init. Modifying the project-local .trellis/ directory and platform hooks allows you to align task routing and spec organization with specific local project requirements.

How does the local Trellis architecture manage agents and shared skill layers?

The local Trellis architecture manages agents and shared skill layers through generated platform directories and configuration files. It decodes these structural elements to guide how skills and agents interact within the project's specific workflow.

Why should I use .trellis files for local customization instead of modifying core settings?

Using .trellis files for local customization isolates project-specific conventions from core settings. This prevents conflicts during updates, maintains a clean upstream template, and ensures modifications to hooks, agents, and workflows remain context-aware.
