Why does this skill always run mix help at the start?

Running mix help allows Claude to discover the specific commands available in your project's environment, including custom tasks and plugin-specific commands.

Why does it prefer local Hex documentation over web searches?

Local documentation provided by mix hex.docs is more reliable and version-specific to your project, ensuring the AI provides accurate code for your installed dependencies.

How does it determine if a change is simple or complex?

Simple changes involve renaming or text edits, while complex changes include creating new modules, functions, Ecto queries, or template logic that require deeper review.

Does this skill work with the Phoenix framework?

Yes, by prioritizing mix generators and standard Elixir patterns, it is fully compatible with Phoenix, Ecto, and other major Hex packages.

Optimizes Elixir development workflows by enforcing standard mix commands and idiomatic scaffolding patterns.

This skill streamlines Elixir development by ensuring Claude adheres to core ecosystem standards, specifically prioritizing the Mix build tool and official code generators over manual implementations. It intelligently classifies tasks based on complexity, routing minor refactors through standard paths while escalating complex feature development—such as Ecto queries or new module creation—to specialized review workflows. By forcing local documentation lookups and command validation, it minimizes hallucinations and ensures that all generated code follows modern Elixir best practices and architectural patterns.
