Is it compatible with Claude's structured output features?

The skill specifically includes patterns for Claude AI integration using Anthropic's tool calling and Pydantic models for structured data.

Can I use this template for different tech stacks?

Yes, while this example focuses on Next.js and FastAPI, the structure can be adapted for any tech stack including Node.js, Go, or Ruby on Rails.

Does it include testing requirements?

Yes, it defines specific testing frameworks like pytest for backend and React Testing Library for frontend, ensuring 80% minimum coverage.

How does this skill improve AI-generated code?

By defining 'Critical Rules' and specific implementation patterns, it prevents the AI from making common architectural mistakes or violating project-specific style guides.

What is a Project Guidelines Skill?

It is a specialized configuration that provides Claude with context-specific knowledge about a project's architecture, file structure, and coding patterns.

Productivity & Workflow

Establishes a comprehensive framework for defining project-specific architecture, coding patterns, and development workflows to ensure AI-generated code consistency.

About

This skill serves as a master template for project-specific guidelines, bridging the gap between general coding knowledge and local project requirements. It provides Claude with a deep understanding of a project's unique tech stack—such as Next.js, FastAPI, and Supabase—alongside directory structures and implementation patterns like structured AI outputs and TDD workflows. By using this skill, developers can ensure that Claude adheres to specific architecture, testing standards, and deployment protocols, significantly reducing technical debt and the need for manual code corrections during the development lifecycle.
