Overview Use this skill to orient in the repo and pick the next specialized skill. Keep changes small and move to the focused skill once you know the task. ## 2. Quick start map 1. Run the app or dataflow: see references/quickstart.md 2. Understand repo layout: see references/repo-map.md 3. Pick the focus skill: - Architecture and boundaries -> 01-mofa-studio-core - Add or change an app -> 02-mofa-studio-app-development - Edit Dora dataflows -> 03-mofa-studio-dataflow - UI layout, events, shaders -> 04-mofa-studio-ui-patterns - Audio pipeline -> 05-mofa-studio-audio - Settings/providers -> 06-mofa-studio-settings - Run/deploy -> 07-mofa-studio-deployment - Debug or investigate failures -> 08-mofa-studio-reference - Roadmap/refactor planning -> 99-mofa-studio-evolution ## 3. Guardrails - Prefer ASCII in new files unless the target file already uses non-ASCII. - When in doubt about dataflow naming or signals, stop and read the dataflow skill references. - Keep app changes self-contained; avoid shell coupling beyond the documented 4 points. ## 4. References - references/quickstart.md - references/repo-map.md - references/pitfalls.md --- > Converted and distributed by [TomeVault](https://tomevault.io/claim/mofa-org) — claim your Tome and manage your conversions.
