应用工坊 · App Studio

Use this skill to create or upgrade a Skill Publisher-grade app. Choose the app type from the brief instead of forcing desktop packaging: use web-only when the workflow is browser-native, use Tauri for a web-rendered desktop product, and use a native macOS host when an App Extension is the product's primary capability. Common stacks are React + TypeScript + Vite, Next.js, Tauri + React, or Swift/SwiftUI + AppKit extensions, with Skill Publisher brand assets, CI/CD or deploy wiring, and lovinsp click-to-code support for browser-rendered UI.

Default Integration Invariant

Run the lov-integrate-lovinsp skill for every app handled by this workflow. Treat Lovinsp as a default development capability, not an optional feature selected from the brief.

• Invoke lov-integrate-lovinsp after the frontend scaffold and build config exist.
• Re-run it for existing apps to update Lovinsp or migrate code-inspector.
• Preserve its idempotent behavior; repeated app-generator runs must stay safe.
• Require the project audit to pass dependency, configuration, migration, and plugin-order checks before completion.
• Verify the served Vite module contains lovinsp-component or [lovinsp v...].

Skip this invariant only when the requested deliverable has no browser-rendered UI and therefore falls outside the app-generation paths described below.

Triggers

Activate when

• The user asks to generate a new Skill Publisher app, web app, PWA, desktop app, or cross-platform app.
• The user asks for a native macOS app, Finder right-click action, Finder Quick Action, Action Extension, or another packaged macOS integration.
• The user has an existing frontend/Tauri project and wants it brought up to Skill Publisher app standards.
• The user mentions web-only, Vite, Next.js, PWA, Tauri, shadcn, React Query / TanStack Query, deploy, auto update, CI/CD, app logo, Skill Publisher logo, Warm Academic UI, or lovinsp as part of app setup.
• The project is a Skill Publisher, Lovpen, Lovcode, Lovmind, Lovshot, Lovsider, Lovsigil, or Lovtarot app.

Do not activate when

• The user asks only for a standalone logo, document, presentation, or static media asset without an application shell.
• The request is limited to diagnosing an existing app and does not include creating or standardizing its app architecture.
• The deliverable is a backend-only service, CLI, library, or Skill package with no browser-rendered application UI.

Workflow (MANDATORY)

Resolve SKILL_DIR from the installed skill context before running helpers. For manual execution, set it to the directory containing this SKILL.md.

You MUST follow these steps in order:

Step 1: Clarify the App Brief

Collect only the missing fields. Use conversation context first. Prefer AskUserQuestion for interactive choices; if that tool is unavailable, ask short direct questions and continue once the answer is clear.

Required fields:

Field	Default	Notes
App name	Ask user	Product/display name, e.g. Lovshot
Project slug	Derived from app name	Lowercase kebab-case
Brand scope	Skill Publisher	Ask if ambiguous between Skill Publisher / brand-logo / personal brand
Target mode	new app	new app or upgrade existing app
App type	Case-by-case	web-only, PWA, Tauri desktop, or another fit from the brief
Platforms	Case-by-case	Web browser/mobile responsive unless native desktop is justified
Native integration	none	Record the exact surface: Finder Quick Action, Services, Share Extension, etc.
Core screens	Ask user	2-5 concrete screens or workflows
Backend/API	Ask user if needed	REST, Supabase, local files, Tauri commands, static data, etc.
Distribution	Case-by-case	Web deploy for web-only; GitHub Releases + updater for Tauri

If the user asks for a real implementation and enough information is present, make conservative assumptions and proceed.

Suggested options to collect interactively:

Question	Recommended choice
Target mode	New app
App type	Decide from requirements
Brand scope	Skill Publisher
UI baseline	Configurable Academic + shadcn/ui
Data layer	TanStack Query when server state exists
Release channel	Web deploy or GitHub Releases based on app type

Step 2: Read Local Context

Before changing files, inspect the target project:

pwd
find .. -name AGENTS.md -print
find .. -name CLAUDE.md -print
ls
find . -maxdepth 2 -type f \( -name package.json -o -name vite.config.ts -o -name next.config.ts -o -name next.config.js -o -name tauri.conf.json -o -name tauri.conf.json5 -o -name Cargo.toml \) -print

Honor any project-level instructions. If the target lives under a symlinked workspace, follow that project's own AGENTS.md / CLAUDE.md.

Step 3: Run the Skill Publisher App Audit

Run the helper from the target project root:

python3 "$SKILL_DIR/scripts/audit_app_project.py" --root . --app-type auto --format markdown

Use the output as the implementation checklist. For new projects, decide the app type first and pass --app-type web or --app-type tauri; the audit will mostly report missing pieces, which is expected.

Step 4: Choose the Implementation Path

App Type Decision

Pick the smallest app type that genuinely fits the brief:

• Web-only app: default when the product is a browser workflow, SaaS/admin surface, content or media tool, public site with logged-in tools, or anything that can deploy cleanly to Vercel/Netlify/Cloudflare/GitHub Pages.
• PWA: use when the app is still web-first but benefits from installability, offline shell, push notifications, or mobile home-screen usage.
• Tauri desktop app: use when native desktop value is explicit: local file access beyond browser capabilities, tray/menu/global shortcuts, long-running background tasks, native OS integration, offline-first packaged use, or GitHub Releases distribution with auto update.
• Native macOS app: use when a macOS App Extension is the primary deliverable, including Finder Quick Actions that must be embedded, signed, enabled, and verified as part of the containing app. Do not force a browser-rendered shell onto an extension-first utility.
• Framework choice: prefer Vite React for app-like single-page workflows, Next.js for SEO/SSR/content routing/API routes, and static HTML only for very small one-off deliverables.

Do not add Tauri simply because this skill historically defaulted to Tauri. If the user says "只创建 web" or the requirements do not need native desktop capabilities, create a web app.

Native Surface Decision

Treat the requested macOS surface as an acceptance criterion, not an implementation detail:

• "Finder 右键菜单" or "Finder context menu" defaults to the Quick Actions submenu when the command processes selected files or folders.
• Services are only for explicit cross-app selection processing or Services shortcuts; NSServices and Service-only workflows never satisfy a Quick Action request.
• Classify the surface by the Finder preview flag and runtime placement, not the com.apple.services identifier or Library/Services directory name.
• Finder Sync is only for synchronization/status behavior in monitored directories.

When the brief includes a Finder Quick Action, read references/macos-finder-quick-actions.md completely before scaffolding or editing.

New Web App

For an app-like browser workflow, default to Vite + React + TypeScript:

pnpm create vite@latest <project-slug> -- --template react-ts
cd <project-slug>
pnpm add @tanstack/react-query lucide-react
pnpm add -D typescript

For SEO-heavy, public, content-routed, or SSR/API-route requirements, use Next.js instead and keep the same Skill Publisher layers:

pnpm create next-app@latest <project-slug> --ts --tailwind --eslint --app --src-dir
cd <project-slug>
pnpm add @tanstack/react-query lucide-react

Then apply the Skill Publisher layers in this order:

1. Project identity: package name, app title, README, and app-specific CLAUDE.md / AGENTS.md.
2. Configurable Academic UI: shadcn/ui, semantic tokens, typography, and layout.
3. Server state: TanStack Query provider and query/mutation helpers when the app has server state; avoid unnecessary TanStack Query for purely local static tools.
4. Brand assets: generate a target-specific app logo with lov-gen-logo, publish the chosen version into assets/ and public/, and generate favicons / PWA icons if needed.
5. Lovinsp: invoke lov-integrate-lovinsp and verify click-to-code integration.
6. CI/CD and deploy: typecheck, lint/build where available, plus the selected web deploy target or documented manual deploy path.
7. Verification: typecheck, build, dev server, and browser screenshot or interaction check where practical.

New Tauri App

Use this path only when the app type decision requires native desktop capabilities or desktop distribution. Default stack:

pnpm create vite@latest <project-slug> -- --template react-ts
cd <project-slug>
pnpm add @tauri-apps/api @tanstack/react-query lucide-react
pnpm add -D @tauri-apps/cli typescript
pnpm tauri init

Then apply the Skill Publisher layers in this order:

1. Project identity: package name, app title, bundle identifier, README, and app-specific CLAUDE.md.
2. Configurable Academic UI: shadcn/ui, semantic tokens, typography, and layout.
3. Server state: TanStack Query provider, query keys, and Tauri invoke wrappers.
4. Brand assets: generate a target-specific app logo with lov-gen-logo, publish the chosen version into assets/ and public/, prepare a macOS-safe padded icon source, then run the Tauri icon pipeline from that generated logo.
5. Lovinsp: invoke lov-integrate-lovinsp and verify click-to-code integration.
6. CI/CD: typecheck, lint/build where available, Tauri release workflow.
7. Auto update: Tauri updater plugin, signing keys/env placeholders, release endpoint wiring.
8. Verification: typecheck, build, and app launch where practical.

If the Tauri product also requires a Finder Quick Action, treat it as a hybrid macOS package and follow the native reference; prefer a native Swift/SwiftUI containing app when the extension is the product's main value.

Finder Quick Action

Follow references/macos-finder-quick-actions.md, run the audit with --native-integration finder-quick-action, and complete its packaged/runtime checks before claiming completion.

Upgrade Existing App

Do not rebuild the project from scratch. Patch the smallest surface needed:

1. Determine whether the existing app should remain web-only, become a PWA, or stay/become Tauri before applying the audit checklist.
2. Keep the existing package manager, router, folder layout, aliases, and style conventions unless they conflict with Skill Publisher requirements.
3. Add missing Skill Publisher layers from the audit; do not add Tauri to a web-only app unless the brief requires native desktop capabilities.
4. Preserve the requested native surface. A Quick Action remains a Quick Action after an upgrade; do not silently replace it with a Service because that path is easier.
5. Run lov-integrate-lovinsp to install/update Lovinsp and migrate any supported code-inspector integration.
6. Preserve user code and unrelated changes.
7. Prefer incremental commits/checkpoints when the app is already substantial.

Step 5: Apply Brand and UI Standards

New apps must not use the canonical Skill Publisher logo as the app/product icon. After the project identity and README describe the target clearly, invoke the lov-gen-logo workflow from the new app root:

1. Generate assets/logo-drafts/v1-*.png and .svg based on what the app does, not a literal reading of its name.
2. Publish the chosen draft to assets/logo.png, assets/logo.svg, public/logo.png, and public/logo.svg.
3. For web-only apps, generate favicons and PWA icons from the target-specific logo as needed; do not run Tauri icon tooling.
4. For Tauri apps, before feeding the generated logo into the Tauri icon pipeline, ensure the icon source has transparent safe area. Do not use a 512x512 edge-to-edge filled icon as the macOS app icon source; it appears oversized in Dock, Launchpad, and Finder. Prefer roughly 40-56px transparent padding on a 512x512 canvas, or a content bounding box around 80-85% of the canvas.
5. Use that padded generated logo as the source for lov-install-tauri-logo and any favicon/tray-icon generation.

For upgrades, keep an existing product logo unless the user asks to refresh it; if the app has no logo, use lov-gen-logo before generating icons.

Resolve canonical assets without assuming a private machine layout:

1. Explicit paths supplied by the user.
2. SKILL_PROFILE_PATH and SKILL_DESIGN_GUIDE.
3. ${SKILL_PROFILE_PATH:-$HOME/.skill-publisher/skills/profile.json}.
4. Ask once when a required asset is still missing.

See references/user-config.md for the portable configuration contract.

Rules:

• Treat the canonical Skill Publisher logo as brand reference or fallback only, not as the default app icon for new apps.
• For Tauri/macOS icons, verify the generated app icon is visually aligned with normal macOS app icons. If ImageMagick is available, a quick sanity check is: magick src-tauri/icons/icon.png -alpha extract -trim -format '%wx%h%O\n' info:; for a 512x512 source, content around 400x400 to 440x440 with positive offsets is usually safer than 512x512+0+0.
• Use semantic Tailwind classes such as bg-background, text-foreground, bg-primary, border-border; do not hard-code brand hex values in UI components.
• Keep the UI operational and app-like. Do not create a marketing landing page when the user asked for an app.
• Use shadcn/ui controls, lucide icons, compact panels, predictable navigation, and no nested cards.
• Every user-facing error (probe/tool failures, job errors, banners) must be selectable, wrap in full, and offer a one-click copy action, even when the app disables text selection globally. Truncated, unselectable red text is a defect.
• First screen should be the real product workflow.

When shadcn/ui is needed, use the existing lov-install-shadcn-ui skill as the detailed reference. When TanStack Query is needed, use lov-install-tanstack-query. For Tauri app icons, use lov-install-tauri-logo; for new apps, run lov-gen-logo first and feed the generated logo into the relevant favicon/PWA/Tauri icon pipeline.

Step 6: Tauri App Baseline

Only for Tauri desktop apps, check these areas:

Area	Expected
src-tauri/tauri.conf.*	app title, identifier, windows, bundle metadata
src-tauri/Cargo.toml	Tauri plugins, app metadata, updater if enabled
Rust commands	typed command boundary, no broad stringly APIs where avoidable
Frontend API	invoke() wrapped through query/mutation helpers for server state
Filesystem/native APIs	least permission needed in Tauri capabilities
Native extensions	when requested, signed .appex embedded in Contents/PlugIns; never Service-only fallback
Icons	generated through Tauri icon pipeline from the target-specific logo produced by lov-gen-logo
Dev server	stable project port, preferably via lov-project-port

Step 7: CI/CD, Deploy, and Auto Update

Default GitHub Actions surface for web-only apps:

• check.yml: install, typecheck, lint/build if present.
• Deploy wiring for the selected target: Vercel, Netlify, Cloudflare Pages, GitHub Pages, self-hosted static output, or a clearly documented manual deploy path.
• Environment variable placeholders only when the app actually needs them.

Default GitHub Actions surface for Tauri apps:

• check.yml: install, typecheck, lint/build if present.
• release.yml: Tauri build for target platforms, draft or publish GitHub Release, attach artifacts.
• Tauri updater wiring: plugin dependency, updater config, signing key env placeholders, and documented release process.
• For Tauri v2, plugins.updater.pubkey is required at runtime. Do not leave it out even during early scaffolding: a missing pubkey causes the app to panic during updater plugin initialization. Use a clear placeholder such as PLACEHOLDER_REPLACE_WITH_TAURI_SIGNER_PUBLIC_KEY until the real public key is generated with pnpm tauri signer generate.

Do not invent secrets. Use placeholder names and document where the user must set them:

• TAURI_SIGNING_PRIVATE_KEY
• TAURI_SIGNING_PRIVATE_KEY_PASSWORD
• platform signing/notarization secrets as required by the target app

Step 8: Lovinsp

Invoke the existing lov-integrate-lovinsp workflow for every browser-rendered app. Do not replace that workflow with a handwritten dependency-only installation: it also performs version checks, idempotent configuration, and code-inspector migration.

Completion requires all of the following:

• lovinsp exists in project dependencies.
• The supported build configuration registers lovinspPlugin.
• Vite registers lovinspPlugin({ bundler: "vite" }) before the framework plugin.
• No supported legacy code-inspector dependency or configuration remains.
• A development-server readback proves the transform is active when practical.

For Vite apps, confirm the Vite config imports and registers lovinspPlugin({ bundler: "vite" }) before the framework plugin, not merely that the package is installed. In dev mode, verify the served module contains lovinsp-component or [lovinsp v...]:

curl -s http://127.0.0.1:<port>/src/main.tsx | rg "lovinsp-component|lovinsp v"

For web-only apps, start the dev server and provide the local URL when the user needs to try the app:

pnpm dev --host 127.0.0.1

For Tauri apps, prefer launching dev mode through a persistent session when the user wants to keep it running after the turn:

tmux new-session -d -s <slug>-dev -c "$PWD" 'pnpm tauri dev'
tmux capture-pane -pt <slug>-dev -S -120

Step 9: Verification

Run the lightest reliable checks that the target repo supports:

pnpm exec tsc --noEmit --pretty false
pnpm build
# Tauri only:
pnpm tauri build --debug

Adjust for npm/yarn/bun and local instructions. If a dev server is needed to verify frontend behavior, start it and give the user the local URL.

For UI changes, use browser or screenshot verification when practical. For Tauri-native behavior, report what was and was not verified.

For Finder Quick Actions, source/build success is insufficient; complete every packaged and runtime acceptance check in references/macos-finder-quick-actions.md.

User Configuration

If local paths differ, prefer these environment variables rather than hard-coding personal paths:

Variable	Default / Usage
SKILL_APP_GENERATOR_SKILL_DIR	Installed lov-app-generator skill directory
SKILL_DESIGN_GUIDE	Configurable Academic design guide path
SKILL_PROFILE_PATH	Skill Publisher brand asset root or profile

CLI Reference

Run python3 "$SKILL_DIR/scripts/audit_app_project.py" --help; Finder Quick Action audits must pass --native-integration finder-quick-action explicitly.

Dependencies

The declared Skill dependencies must be available when their existing workflow branch applies: Lovinsp for browser-rendered UI, logo generation for new apps or missing logos, shadcn/ui when selected, TanStack Query for server state, and Tauri icons for Tauri apps. Declaration does not make every branch mandatory. The preferred lov-project-port handoff remains optional.

python3 "$SKILL_DIR/scripts/audit_app_project.py" --help

No Python packages are required.

• 只使用 Manifest 声明的字段；Profile 保存公开品牌事实，Preferences 保存个人工作偏好。
• required: true 字段缺失时，按 Manifest 的问题配置向用户提出一个聚焦问题；用户明确同意后再保存回答。
• 报错提供可复制的 context_id、字段路径与来源，诊断内容避开秘密、完整私人路径和原始配置。

通用反馈闭环

用户在 Skill 驱动任务中提出修改意见时，继续当前产物前必须执行：

1. 先判断意见是 task-specific（仅本次）还是 reusable（可跨任务复用）。
2. task-specific 只修改当前任务，不改 Skill。
3. reusable 先确定作用域：领域规则先更新对应 canonical Skill；适用于所有 Skill 的规则先更新共享规范。
4. 完成规则更新、版本、lint 与分发核验后，再把修改应用到当前任务。
5. reusable 修改会使此前的“确认”“继续”“发吧”失效；完成当前产物修改和回读后必须停下，等待用户下一步指示，不自动进入发布、提交或其他外部写入。
