What is the recommended way to handle Gemfile.lock?

The skill enforces the best practice of always committing Gemfile.lock to version control to ensure all developers and production environments use identical gem versions.

Can I use this to create and publish my own Ruby gems?

Yes, the skill includes detailed templates for gemspec configuration, standardized directory structures, and the step-by-step process for building and pushing gems to RubyGems.

Does it support private gem repositories and Git-based gems?

Absolutely. It covers configuration for private gem servers, Git source shorthand, and using .netrc or environment variables for secure private dependency management.

How does this skill help with Ruby dependency conflicts?

It provides specialized troubleshooting commands, dependency tree visualization techniques, and best practices for pessimistic versioning (~>) to prevent and resolve gem versioning issues.
