# Project Initialization Skill
Interactive workflow for initializing new software projects with complete development infrastructure.
## Use When
- Starting a new Python, Rust, or TypeScript project
- Updating existing project tooling to current standards
- Need to set up git, GitHub workflows, pre-commit hooks, Makefile
- Want consistent project structure across team
- Converting unstructured project to best practices
- Adding missing configurations to established codebases
## Workflow
### 1. Detect or Select Language
Load `modules/language-detection.md`
- Auto-detect from existing files (pyproject.toml, Cargo.toml, package.json)
- If ambiguous or empty directory, ask user to select
- Validate language is supported (python, rust, typescript)
### 2. Collect Project Metadata
Load `modules/metadata-collection.md`
Gather:
- Project name (default: directory name)
- Author name and email
- Project description
- Language-specific settings:
- Python: version (default 3.10)
- Rust: edition (default 2021)
- TypeScript: framework (React, Vue, etc.)
- License type (MIT, Apache, GPL, etc.)
### 3. Review Existing Files
Check for existing configurations:
```bash
ls -la
```
**Verification:** Run the command with `--help` flag to verify availability.
If files exist (Makefile, .gitignore, etc.):
- Show what would be overwritten
- Ask for confirmation or selective overwrite
- Offer merge mode (preserve custom content)
### 4. Render and Apply Templates
Load `modules/template-rendering.md`
Run initialization script:
```bash
python3 plugins/attune/scripts/attune_init.py \
--lang {{LANGUAGE}} \
--name {{PROJECT_NAME}} \
--author {{AUTHOR}} \
--email {{EMAIL}} \
--python-version {{PYTHON_VERSION}} \
--description {{DESCRIPTION}} \
--path .
```
**Verification:** Run the command with `--help` flag to verify availability.
### 5. Initialize Git (if needed)
```bash
# Check if git is initialized
if [ ! -d .git ]; then
git init
echo "Git repository initialized"
fi
```
**Verification:** Run `git status` to confirm working tree state.
### 6. Verify Setup
Validate setup:
```bash
# Check Makefile targets
make help
# List created files
git status
```
**Verification:** Run `git status` to confirm working tree state.
### 7. Next Steps
Advise user to:
```bash
# Install dependencies and hooks
make dev-setup
# Run tests to verify setup
make test
# See all available commands
make help
```
**Verification:** Run `pytest -v` to verify tests pass.
## Error Handling
- **Language detection fails**: Ask user to specify `--lang`
- **Script not found**: Guide to plugin installation location
- **Permission denied**: Suggest `chmod +x` on scripts
- **Git conflicts**: Offer to stash or commit existing work
## Success Criteria
- All template files created successfully
- No overwrites without user confirmation
- Git repository initialized
- `make help` shows available targets
- `make test` runs without errors (even if no tests yet)
## Examples
### Example 1: New Python Project
```
**Verification:** Run `pytest -v` to verify tests pass.
