Stitch Loop V2

Stitch Build Loop

Overview

This public intake copy packages plugins/antigravity-awesome-skills/skills/stitch-loop from https://github.com/sickn33/antigravity-awesome-skills into the native Omni Skills editorial shape without hiding its origin.

Use it when the operator needs the upstream workflow, support files, and repository context to stay intact while the public validator and private enhancer continue their normal downstream flow.

This intake keeps the copied upstream files intact and uses the external_source block in metadata.json plus ORIGIN.md as the provenance anchor for review.

Stitch Build Loop You are an autonomous frontend builder participating in an iterative site-building loop. Your goal is to generate a page using Stitch, integrate it into the site, and prepare instructions for the next iteration.

Imported source sections that did not map cleanly to the public headings are still preserved below or in the support files. Notable imported sections: Prerequisites, The Baton System, Execution Protocol, Orchestration Options, Design System Integration, Common Pitfalls.

When to Use This Skill

Use this section as the trigger filter. It should make the activation boundary explicit before the operator loads files, runs commands, or opens a pull request.

• You are iteratively building a website with Stitch using a baton-based loop across runs or agents.
• Each pass should read the next prompt, generate or integrate a page, and hand off the next task.
• You need a disciplined autonomous loop for multi-step frontend site construction.
• Use when the request clearly matches the imported source intent: Teaches agents to iteratively build websites using Stitch with an autonomous baton-passing loop pattern.
• Use when the operator should preserve upstream workflow detail instead of rewriting the process from scratch.
• Use when provenance needs to stay visible in the answer, PR, or review packet.

Operating Table

Workflow

This workflow is intentionally editorial and operational at the same time. It keeps the imported source useful to the operator while still satisfying the public intake standards that feed the downstream enhancer flow.

1. Confirm the user goal, the scope of the imported workflow, and whether this skill is still the right router for the task.
2. Read the overview and provenance files before loading any copied upstream support files.
3. Load only the references, examples, prompts, or scripts that materially change the outcome for the current request.
4. Execute the upstream workflow while keeping provenance and source boundaries explicit in the working notes.
5. Validate the result against the upstream expectations and the evidence you can point to in the copied files.
6. Escalate or hand off to a related skill when the work moves out of this imported workflow's center of gravity.
7. Before merge or closure, record what was used, what changed, and what the reviewer still needs to verify.

Imported Workflow Notes

Imported: Overview

The Build Loop pattern enables continuous, autonomous website development through a "baton" system. Each iteration:

1. Reads the current task from a baton file (.stitch/next-prompt.md)
2. Generates a page using Stitch MCP tools
3. Integrates the page into the site structure
4. Writes the next task to the baton file for the next iteration

Imported: Prerequisites

Required:

• Access to the Stitch MCP Server
• A Stitch project (existing or will be created)
• A .stitch/DESIGN.md file (generate one using the design-md skill if needed)
• A .stitch/SITE.md file documenting the site vision and roadmap

Optional:

• Chrome DevTools MCP Server — enables visual verification of generated pages

Examples

Example 1: Ask for the upstream workflow directly

Use @stitch-loop-v2 to handle <task>. Start from the copied upstream workflow, load only the files that change the outcome, and keep provenance visible in the answer.

Explanation: This is the safest starting point when the operator needs the imported workflow, but not the entire repository.

Example 2: Ask for a provenance-grounded review

Review @stitch-loop-v2 against metadata.json and ORIGIN.md, then explain which copied upstream files you would load first and why.

Explanation: Use this before review or troubleshooting when you need a precise, auditable explanation of origin and file selection.

Example 3: Narrow the copied support files before execution

Use @stitch-loop-v2 for <task>. Load only the copied references, examples, or scripts that change the outcome, and name the files explicitly before proceeding.

Explanation: This keeps the skill aligned with progressive disclosure instead of loading the whole copied package by default.

Example 4: Build a reviewer packet

Review @stitch-loop-v2 using the copied upstream files plus provenance, then summarize any gaps before merge.

Explanation: This is useful when the PR is waiting for human review and you want a repeatable audit packet.

Best Practices

Treat the generated public skill as a reviewable packaging layer around the upstream repository. The goal is to keep provenance explicit and load only the copied source material that materially improves execution.

• Keep the imported skill grounded in the upstream repository; do not invent steps that the source material cannot support.
• Prefer the smallest useful set of support files so the workflow stays auditable and fast to review.
• Keep provenance, source commit, and imported file paths visible in notes and PR descriptions.
• Point directly at the copied upstream files that justify the workflow instead of relying on generic review boilerplate.
• Treat generated examples as scaffolding; adapt them to the concrete task before execution.
• Route to a stronger native skill when architecture, debugging, design, or security concerns become dominant.

Troubleshooting

Problem: The operator skipped the imported context and answered too generically

Symptoms: The result ignores the upstream workflow in plugins/antigravity-awesome-skills/skills/stitch-loop, fails to mention provenance, or does not use any copied source files at all. Solution: Re-open metadata.json, ORIGIN.md, and the most relevant copied upstream files. Check the external_source block first, then restate the provenance before continuing.

Problem: The imported workflow feels incomplete during review

Symptoms: Reviewers can see the generated SKILL.md, but they cannot quickly tell which references, examples, or scripts matter for the current task. Solution: Point at the exact copied references, examples, scripts, or assets that justify the path you took. If the gap is still real, record it in the PR instead of hiding it.

Problem: The task drifted into a different specialization

Symptoms: The imported skill starts in the right place, but the work turns into debugging, architecture, design, security, or release orchestration that a native skill handles better. Solution: Use the related skills section to hand off deliberately. Keep the imported provenance visible so the next skill inherits the right context instead of starting blind.

Imported: The Baton System

The .stitch/next-prompt.md file acts as a relay baton between iterations:

---
page: about
---
A page describing how jules.top tracking works.

**DESIGN SYSTEM (REQUIRED):**
[Copy from .stitch/DESIGN.md Section 6]

**Page Structure:**
1. Header with navigation
2. Explanation of tracking methodology
3. Footer with links

Critical rules:

• The page field in YAML frontmatter determines the output filename
• The prompt content must include the design system block from .stitch/DESIGN.md
• You MUST update this file before completing your work to continue the loop

Imported: Execution Protocol

Step 1: Read the Baton

Parse .stitch/next-prompt.md to extract:

• Page name from the page frontmatter field
• Prompt content from the markdown body

Step 2: Consult Context Files

Before generating, read these files:

Important checks:

• Section 4 (Sitemap) — Do NOT recreate pages that already exist
• Section 5 (Roadmap) — Pick tasks from here if backlog exists
• Section 6 (Creative Freedom) — Ideas for new pages if roadmap is empty

Step 3: Generate with Stitch

Use the Stitch MCP tools to generate the page:

1. Discover namespace: Run list_tools to find the Stitch MCP prefix
2. Get or create project:
   • If .stitch/metadata.json exists, use the projectId from it
   • Otherwise, call [prefix]:create_project, then call [prefix]:get_project to retrieve full project details, and save them to .stitch/metadata.json (see schema below)
   • After generating each screen, call [prefix]:get_project again and update the screens map in .stitch/metadata.json with each screen's full metadata (id, sourceScreen, dimensions, canvas position)
3. Generate screen: Call [prefix]:generate_screen_from_text with:
   • projectId: The project ID
   • prompt: The full prompt from the baton (including design system block)
   • deviceType: DESKTOP (or as specified)
4. Retrieve assets: Before downloading, check if .stitch/designs/{page}.html and .stitch/designs/{page}.png already exist:
   • If files exist: Ask the user whether to refresh the designs from the Stitch project or reuse the existing local files. Only re-download if the user confirms.
   • If files do not exist: Proceed with download:
     • htmlCode.downloadUrl — Download and save as .stitch/designs/{page}.html
     • screenshot.downloadUrl — Append =w{width} to the URL before downloading, where {width} is the width value from the screen metadata (Google CDN serves low-res thumbnails by default). Save as .stitch/designs/{page}.png

Step 4: Integrate into Site

1. Move generated HTML from .stitch/designs/{page}.html to site/public/{page}.html
2. Fix any asset paths to be relative to the public folder
3. Update navigation:
   • Find existing placeholder links (e.g., href="#") and wire them to the new page
   • Add the new page to the global navigation if appropriate
4. Ensure consistent headers/footers across all pages

Step 4.5: Visual Verification (Optional)

If the Chrome DevTools MCP Server is available, verify the generated page:

1. Check availability: Run list_tools to see if chrome* tools are present
2. Start dev server: Use Bash to start a local server (e.g., npx serve site/public)
3. Navigate to page: Call [chrome_prefix]:navigate to open http://localhost:3000/{page}.html
4. Capture screenshot: Call [chrome_prefix]:screenshot to capture the rendered page
5. Visual comparison: Compare against the Stitch screenshot (.stitch/designs/{page}.png) for fidelity
6. Stop server: Terminate the dev server process

Note: This step is optional. If Chrome DevTools MCP is not installed, skip to Step 5.

Step 5: Update Site Documentation

Modify .stitch/SITE.md:

• Add the new page to Section 4 (Sitemap) with [x]
• Remove any idea you consumed from Section 6 (Creative Freedom)
• Update Section 5 (Roadmap) if you completed a backlog item

Step 6: Prepare the Next Baton (Critical)

You MUST update .stitch/next-prompt.md before completing. This keeps the loop alive.

1. Decide the next page:
   • Check .stitch/SITE.md Section 5 (Roadmap) for pending items
   • If empty, pick from Section 6 (Creative Freedom)
   • Or invent something new that fits the site vision
2. Write the baton with proper YAML frontmatter:

---
page: achievements
---
A competitive achievements page showing developer badges and milestones.

**DESIGN SYSTEM (REQUIRED):**
[Copy the entire design system block from .stitch/DESIGN.md]

**Page Structure:**
1. Header with title and navigation
2. Badge grid showing unlocked/locked states
3. Progress bars for milestone tracking

Imported: Orchestration Options

The loop can be driven by different orchestration layers:

The skill is orchestration-agnostic — focus on the pattern, not the trigger mechanism.

Imported: Design System Integration

This skill works best with the design-md skill:

1. First time setup: Generate .stitch/DESIGN.md using the design-md skill from an existing Stitch screen
2. Every iteration: Copy Section 6 ("Design System Notes for Stitch Generation") into your baton prompt
3. Consistency: All generated pages will share the same visual language

Imported: Common Pitfalls

• ❌ Forgetting to update .stitch/next-prompt.md (breaks the loop)
• ❌ Recreating a page that already exists in the sitemap
• ❌ Not including the design system block from .stitch/DESIGN.md in the prompt
• ❌ Leaving placeholder links (href="#") instead of wiring real navigation
• ❌ Forgetting to persist .stitch/metadata.json after creating a new project

Imported: Limitations

• Use this skill only when the task clearly matches the scope described above.
• Do not treat the output as a substitute for environment-specific validation, testing, or expert review.
• Stop and ask for clarification if required inputs, permissions, safety boundaries, or success criteria are missing.
