## Intent-Solutions Standards Implemented
### 1. Frontmatter Enhancements
```yaml
---
name: skill-name
version: 1.0.0
description: |
Clear skill description.
Use when [specific use case].
Trigger with phrases like "phrase1", "phrase2", or "phrase3".
allowed-tools: Read, Write, Edit, Grep, Glob, Bash(scope:*)
license: MIT
---
```
**Key Features:**
- Version field for tracking skill updates
- Multi-line description with trigger phrases
- Scoped Bash tools for category isolation
- MIT license for open usage
### 2. Scoped Bash Tool Format
**Purpose:** Restrict Bash commands to category-specific operations for security and clarity.
**Examples:**
- Testing: `Bash(test:unit-*)` - Only unit testing commands
- API Dev: `Bash(api:graphql-*)` - Only GraphQL operations
- Crypto: `Bash(crypto:onchain-*)` - Only blockchain queries
**Benefits:**
- Clear intent about allowed operations
- Security through limited scope
- Better error messages when misused
- Self-documenting skill capabilities
### 3. Required Section Structure
#### Prerequisites
- Environment setup requirements
- Required tools and libraries
- Access credentials and permissions
- Configuration prerequisites
- Network connectivity needs
#### Instructions
Four-step workflow pattern:
1. **Prepare/Design** - Initial setup and planning
2. **Implement/Execute** - Core skill functionality
3. **Analyze/Enhance** - Processing and optimization
4. **Document/Report** - Output generation
#### Output
Detailed description of all artifacts:
- File structures with paths
- Metrics and statistics
- Reports and documentation
- Configuration files
- Test artifacts
#### Error Handling
Common issues with solutions:
- **Issue Category**
- Error: Specific error message
- Solution: Step-by-step resolution
#### Resources
- Tools and frameworks
- Documentation links
- Best practices
- Security guidelines
### 4. Path Variables
Using `{baseDir}` for portable paths:
```
{baseDir}/src/
{baseDir}/tests/
{baseDir}/config/
{baseDir}/reports/
```
**Benefits:**
- Works across different project structures
- No hardcoded absolute paths
- Better documentation clarity
- Compatible with containerized environments
---
