Add

Add

Meta-adder for toolkit artifacts. Single entry point to add a skill, pattern, best-practice, hook, agent, or guide to the right location(s) with correct frontmatter + triggers + sync to all 4 publish targets.

Purpose

Eliminate manual file-path guessing and frontmatter boilerplate. Route artifact creation through a unified dispatcher that handles schema validation, location routing, and bilingual sync.

Artifact Types & Locations

Invocation

add skill "name" --description "..." --triggers "trigger1,trigger2" --body "..."
add pattern "name" --description "..." --references "ref1,ref2" --body "..."
add hook "name" --event "post-commit" --body "..."

Workflow

1. Parse type — Determine artifact kind from command.
2. Validate frontmatter — Ensure name, description (+ triggers for skills).
3. Create EN canonical — Write to primary repo location with full frontmatter.
4. Sync to PT — Copy file to PT mirror, insert "Tradução pendente" blockquote after frontmatter (critical).
5. Write local — Copy to ~/.claude/ location for immediate availability.
6. Write dotfiles — Copy to dotfiles repo for chezmoi sync.
7. Stage & commit — Commit across all 4 repos on feature branches.
8. Open PRs — Create PRs on EN, PT, dotfiles (auto-merge on CI pass).

  --description "Validate code against team standards"
  --triggers "validate code,lint check,run validator"
  --body "# My Validator\n\nChecks code..."

Creates:

1. ai-dev-toolkit/packages/core/kit/core/skills/my-validator.md (EN)
2. ai-dev-toolkit-pt-br/packages/core/kit/core/skills/my-validator.md (PT + blockquote)
3. ~/.claude/skills/my-validator/SKILL.md (local)
4. dotfiles/dot_claude/skills/my-validator/SKILL.md (dotfiles)

Then stages, commits, opens 3 PRs.
