Create

Create a new project

Route project creation to the right companion plugin. Wingspan does not scaffold projects itself — it discovers companion plugins from recommendation files and delegates to the matching plugin's create skill.

Project description

$ARGUMENTS

If the description above is empty:

1. First, scan recommendation files (Step 1 below) to discover available project types.
2. Then use AskUserQuestion tool:
   • Question: "What kind of project would you like to create?"
   • Options: Build the option list from the discovered companion plugins' descriptions, plus "Other" as the last option.

DO NOT proceed until you have a project description.

Step 1: Scan recommendation files

Use Glob to find all *.json files in hooks/recommendations/ (relative to the Wingspan plugin root). Then Read each file.

Each recommendation file has this structure:

{
  "plugin": "plugin-name",
  "description": "What the plugin provides.",
  "marketplace": "OrgName/repo-name"
}

Step 2: Match the user's request to a plugin

Compare the user's project description against each recommendation's plugin name and description (case-insensitive). Pick the plugin whose description best matches the requested technology.

• No match: Inform the user no companion plugin is registered for this project type. Stop.
• Multiple matches: Pick the most specific match for the requested project type.
• Match found: Proceed to Step 3.

Step 3: Verify the plugin is installed

Check the available skills listed in the system-reminder in your conversation context for any skill prefixed with the matched plugin name (<plugin-name>:).

If no skills from that plugin are listed, the plugin is not installed. Use AskUserQuestion tool:

• Question: "The companion plugin '<plugin>' is needed but not installed. Would you like to install it?"
• Options:
  1. "Yes, install it" (default)
  2. "No, stop"

If the user chooses to install, output the following commands and stop:

/plugin marketplace add <marketplace>
/plugin install <plugin>

Tell the user to run these commands, then re-invoke /create with the same project description. Do not proceed to Step 4.

Step 4: Find and invoke the plugin's project-creation skill

The available skills are listed in the system-reminder in your conversation context. Look for skills prefixed with the matched plugin name (<plugin-name>:<skill-name>). Among those, find the skill whose name or description best indicates project creation (look for terms like "create", "scaffold", "new project", "generate", "init").

Invoke it using the Skill tool with its fully qualified name (e.g., my-plugin:scaffold-project), passing the user's full project description as arguments.

• No project-creation skill found for the plugin: Inform the user the companion plugin is registered but does not provide a project-creation skill. Stop.
• If the skill invocation fails: Surface the error to the user and suggest verifying the companion plugin is properly installed.

Important

• This skill is a thin router. No technology-specific logic.
• Every user-facing question must use the AskUserQuestion tool.
