How do I trigger these patterns in a conversation?

You can trigger this skill by using keywords like OOP, SOLID, design patterns, metaprogramming, or by asking for help refactoring specific Rails components.

Does it include guidance on method lookup chains?

Yes, it provides detailed examples and explanations of how include, prepend, and extend affect the Ruby method lookup hierarchy.

Does it support the latest Ruby 3.x features?

Yes, the skill includes modern Ruby 3.x syntax, including inline private methods and advanced singleton class (eigenclass) definitions.

Can I use this for non-Rails Ruby projects?

While it includes Rails-specific patterns like ActiveSupport::Concern, the core sections on OOP fundamentals, inheritance, and metaprogramming are applicable to any Ruby environment.

How does this skill improve my Rails project architecture?

It provides standardized blueprints for patterns like Service and Form objects, which help move logic out of models and controllers, reducing technical debt and improving testability.

Learning & Documentation

Implements enterprise-grade Ruby and Rails design patterns to ensure scalable, maintainable, and object-oriented code architecture.

About

This skill provides a comprehensive knowledge base of Object-Oriented Programming (OOP) principles specifically tailored for Ruby and Ruby on Rails environments. It equips Claude with the patterns needed to transition from basic scripts to enterprise-grade software, covering everything from fundamental class structures and module mixins to advanced metaprogramming and SOLID principles. It is particularly useful when refactoring 'fat' models and controllers into clean, decoupled abstractions like Service Objects, Form Objects, and Query Objects, ensuring consistency across large-scale Rails applications.

Key Features

Comprehensive application of SOLID principles within Ruby syntax
Advanced metaprogramming and dynamic method generation techniques
Modern Ruby 3.x feature support including enhanced method visibility
Standardized implementation of Service, Form, and Query object patterns
2 GitHub stars
Deep-dive patterns for module composition using Include, Prepend, and Extend

Use Cases

Refactoring complex business logic into decoupled, testable Service Objects
Simplifying multi-model forms using robust Form Object abstractions
Building reusable and chainable database filters with the Query Object pattern
