Step 0 — If the user did not name a stack: ask before assuming. Pose at most two questions ("Frontend, backend, or full-stack? Any language preference?"), then recommend from this table, state the one-line reason, and confirm before Step 1:
| Use case | Recommend |
|---|
| Interactive product UI, SSR, or full-stack web | nextjs |
| Client-only SPA or internal dashboard | vite-react |
| Python REST / async API | fastapi |
| Enterprise TypeScript API (DI, Swagger) | nestjs |
Full-stack → scaffold frontend and backend as two separate runs.
Step 1 — Identify the stack: fastapi, nestjs, nextjs, or vite-react.
Step 2 — Load in order. Replace <skill-dir> with this skill's own directory — Claude Code prints it as "Base directory for this skill" when the skill loads; substitute that absolute path (it is not a shell variable). Other Agent-Skills tools provide the skill's directory the same way.
cat "<skill-dir>/<stack>/config-files.md"
cat "<skill-dir>/<stack>/source-files.md"
Step 3 — Follow each loaded guide fully before proceeding to the next.
