build-project

name	build-project
description	Build the project using the CMake presets defined for this repository. Use when the user asks to compile, build, or verify that the project builds.

Build Project

Shared Contract

Before acting, read:

1. ../_shared/codeplan/core.md

Purpose

Provide the single source of truth for building this project. All compile passes from other skills or workflows should use the commands defined here.

Environment

The project's usual production environment is Windows with a Vulkan C++ engine.

Do not run commands that cmd or PowerShell cannot understand. Since build commands are typically invoked through PowerShell-style presets, use the exact commands below unless the user explicitly asks for another toolchain.

Default Build Commands

Use the CMake Visual Studio preset by default:

cmake --preset windows-msvc
cmake --build --preset windows-msvc-relwithdebinfo

Run them in the project root directory.

Error Handling

If the build fails:

1. Capture the first few relevant compilation errors with file and line references.
2. Report them clearly.
3. Do not silently retry a clean build unless the user asks.
4. If another skill invoked this build as part of its workflow, return the result so the caller can decide whether to fix, record a blocker, or ask the user.

Out of Scope

• This skill builds the project; it does not review code, apply CodePlan steps, or fix source code unless combined with another task.
• Do not modify build/, third-party directories, generated artifacts, or large asset packages as part of a normal build.
