Noop Generator

Noop Generator Skill

This skill generates complete backend projects following a function-first, layered architecture.

When Claude Should Use This

Automatically use this skill when the user:

• Wants to create a new backend service or API
• Asks to scaffold or generate a new project
• Needs a production-ready Express + TypeScript template
• Wants to generate a microservice
• Mentions "noop" and creating something new

Key Principles

1. No fallbacks - Errors are explicit, never hidden
2. Explicit dependencies - Pass dbStore as parameter
3. Organization scoping - Every DB op requires organizationId
4. Type safety - Never use any
5. Fail fast - Validate configuration at startup

Verification

After generation:

• npm run typecheck passes
• npm run lint passes
• npm run build succeeds
• GET /healthz returns 200
