Does it automatically update my security rules?

The skill provides precise templates and guidance for updating your firestore.rules file to ensure new collections are properly secured.

Does this skill support TypeScript projects?

Yes, the skill is specifically optimized for TypeScript and provides structured implementation patterns for types and interfaces.

Can I use this for initial Firebase project setup?

No, this skill is designed for adding features to existing projects. For initial setup, use the firebase-development:project-setup skill.

How does it handle testing?

It follows a strict TDD workflow, requiring you to create and run failing unit tests before implementation, followed by emulator-based integration tests.

API Development

Guides developers through a Test-Driven Development (TDD) workflow to implement new Cloud Functions, Firestore collections, and API endpoints in Firebase projects.

About

This skill streamlines the process of expanding Firebase applications by enforcing a rigorous development cycle. It automates the creation of test-first skeletons, handles complex Firestore security rule updates, and ensures consistent API response patterns across your backend. By integrating emulator-based verification and TDD principles, it helps developers build robust, secure, and production-ready Firebase features while maintaining high architectural standards and file-level documentation.

Key Features

Integrates emulator-based verification for integration testing
Enforces TDD-first development for Cloud Functions and API endpoints
Supports multiple function types including HTTP, Trigger, and Callable functions
Standardizes API responses using a consistent success/message/data pattern
8 GitHub stars
Automates creation of Firestore security rules and complex indexes

Use Cases

Implementing a new Firestore collection with specific server-side security rules and validation
Creating scheduled cron-job functions with comprehensive unit and integration tests
Adding a new authenticated REST API endpoint to an existing Express-based Firebase project
