toy-crane Add Stack Context
Inventory the stack
Build a checklist of the direct technologies that shape how the project is built or operated from manifests and configuration files. Include frameworks, libraries, developer tools, and hosted services; exclude transitive dependencies. Use lockfiles to confirm installed versions, not to expand the checklist. If the project does not declare a stack yet, ask the user what they intend to use.
Discover skills and vendor context
For every checklist item, invoke find-skills when it is available and use it
to discover relevant skills. When it is absent, search the current Skills
ecosystem through the Skills CLI or an equivalent current source so this skill
remains independently installable.
Verify candidate ownership against the technology vendor's current documentation or official organization; search rank, install count, and repository popularity do not establish that relationship. Inspect the documented installation method and expected changes, then install a vendor-controlled skill when it is missing. Assess a relevant community skill as an optional candidate, but install it only after explicit user approval and never count it as the technology's official context.
Continue through the vendor's current sources for official context that skill search does not cover, including installers, codemods, package-bundled documentation, and MCP servers. Match the installed version when the vendor provides version-specific context and apply the vendor's documented method. When no official channel exists, record the gap without letting a community candidate substitute for it.
Keep changing guidance live
Treat a vendor llms.txt or equivalent changing document as a current remote
source, not a file to copy into the repository. Add or update a bounded managed
instruction in the repository's established AGENTS.md or CLAUDE.md surface.
Name the technology and official source, tell later agents to retrieve it when
relevant work begins, and require them to reconcile it with the installed
version.
Preserve user-authored context and existing links, imports, or other sharing between agent instruction files. When both files are independent and active, expose the same live retrieval behavior in each without replacing their other content. Treat vendor-managed blocks as vendor-owned and update them only through the official method.
Account for every technology
Finish only when every checklist item has one of four outcomes:
- installed;
- already present;
- unavailable from an official source; or
- blocked, with the reason stated.
Summarize the outcome and official sources checked for every item. For installed context, include the changes made and the vendor's documented update path. List community candidates awaiting approval separately. For live vendor guidance, name task-time retrieval as its update path and report a retrieval blocker instead of treating a cached copy as current.
