Can I use this for Rails 8 features?

Yes, it includes specific guidance for modern patterns introduced in Rails 8, such as the authentication generator and ActionCable integration.

Does it support testing generators?

Absolutely, it provides detailed patterns for testing generators using the Rails::Generators::Testing::Behavior framework to ensure your automation works correctly.

Can I invoke existing Rails generators from my custom ones?

Yes, the skill covers generator composition, allowing you to invoke standard model, controller, or test generators within your custom logic to avoid re-inventing the wheel.

Does it handle complex file modifications?

Yes, it includes documentation for Thor::Actions like insert_into_file, gsub_file, and route manipulation for modifying existing files safely.

What is the difference between Rails::Generators::Base and NamedBase?

The skill guides you on using Base for simple generators without required arguments, and NamedBase for generators that require a specific name argument (like model or controller names).
