Sui Dev Skills

This is a collection of Sui development skills. Each sub-skill is self-contained and should be loaded based on the task at hand. When multiple apply (e.g. a frontend app that constructs transactions), load all relevant skills together.

Sub-skills

move — Smart Contracts

Path: move/SKILL.md Load when: writing, reviewing, debugging, or deploying Move code; configuring Move.toml; working with the Sui object model; writing Move tests. Covers: Routes to focused sub-skills — setup (package config, build/test, pitfalls), syntax (module layout, visibility, enums, macros), objects (structs, abilities, dynamic fields), patterns (events, errors, OTW, capabilities, composability), stdlib (Coin/Balance, vectors, Option, strings).

sui-ts-sdk — TypeScript SDK

Path: sui-ts-sdk/SKILL.md Load when: writing TypeScript/JavaScript that interacts with the Sui blockchain — backend scripts, CLIs, serverless functions, or the transaction-building layer of a frontend. Covers: @mysten/sui package, PTB construction (Transaction, moveCall, splitCoins, coinWithBalance), SuiClient/SuiGrpcClient setup, keypair signing, transaction execution, on-chain queries.

sui-frontend — Frontend dApp Kit

Path: sui-frontend/SKILL.md Load when: building browser-based Sui dApps — React apps with @mysten/dapp-kit-react, or Vue/vanilla JS/Svelte apps with @mysten/dapp-kit-core. Covers: DAppKitProvider setup, wallet connection, React hooks (useCurrentAccount, useSignAndExecuteTransaction, useSuiClientQuery), Web Components, nanostores state for non-React frameworks. Note: For PTB construction within a frontend, load sui-ts-sdk alongside this skill.
