What happens if a specific skill is missing from my project?

The system employs graceful degradation, meaning it will fall back to Claude's general Rails knowledge while notifying the user of the missing skill for future addition.

How do I integrate a new team-specific coding standard?

Simply create a new directory in .claude/skills/ with a SKILL.md file; the discovery engine will automatically detect and use it in the next workflow run.

Can I use this with any version of Ruby on Rails?

Yes, it is designed to be generic and portable, adapting its behavior based on the specific skills and conventions found within your particular Rails project.

How does the skill find my custom patterns?

It scans the .claude/skills/ directory at the start of the workflow and categorizes files based on predefined naming patterns like 'active-record' or 'service-object'.

Does it support project-specific domain logic?

Absolutely. Any skill that doesn't match standard technical categories is automatically treated as a Domain Skill to provide specific business context during the development process.

Productivity & Workflow

Automatically detects and orchestrates project-specific coding patterns and domain knowledge within any Ruby on Rails repository.

The Skill Discovery Patterns skill enables the Rails Enterprise Dev plugin to dynamically adapt to any Rails codebase by scanning for and cataloging specialized skills located in the project's directory. By automatically categorizing patterns into domains like ActiveRecord, Service Objects, and ViewComponents, it ensures that Claude applies project-specific best practices during planning and implementation phases. This modular approach allows for seamless portability across different Rails projects, maintaining high-quality standards while gracefully handling missing skills by falling back to general Rails conventions.
