Can I use this skill for greenfield project scaffolding?

No, this skill is specifically designed for modifying existing Sails repositories. For new projects, use a dedicated scaffolding skill.

How does this skill handle contract versioning?

If a feature targets a released contract or requires a V1-V2 migration, the skill automatically routes the workflow through a specialized program-evolution path.

Does it support automated testing?

Yes, it mandates a sequence where gtests must be green and documented before local smoke validation occurs.

Why is the IDL regeneration step required?

Regenerating the IDL and typed client ensures that the frontend and external interfaces stay in sync with Rust contract changes, preventing interface mismatches.

Productividad y Flujo de Trabajo

Orchestrates a structured development lifecycle for modifying and extending existing Gear/Vara Sails applications.

The Sails Feature Workflow skill provides a standardized, stage-by-stage methodology for developers implementing changes in existing Gear/Vara Sails repositories. It ensures that every feature follows a rigorous path from specification and architecture planning to task decomposition and implementation, preventing the bypass of critical steps like IDL client regeneration and gtest validation. This skill is essential for maintaining code quality in complex blockchain applications, managing program evolution from V1 to V2, and ensuring consistent use of the Sails framework's typed client path.
