description	Creates new packages in the @kitz monorepo with proper structure, configuration, and workspace integration. Handles package.json, tsconfigs, source files, and runs necessary sync scripts.

Creating Packages

Create new packages in the monorepo with full scaffolding.

Steps

1. Run the script at .claude/skills/creating-packages/scripts/create-package.ts with the package name as argument
2. Run pnpm install to link the new package in the workspace
3. Verify the package was created in packages/<name>/

Reference

The script creates:

packages/<name>/
├── src/
│   ├── _.ts              # Namespace file
│   ├── __.ts             # Barrel file
│   └── <name>.ts         # Main implementation
├── package.json          # @kitz/<name> with workspace deps
├── tsconfig.json         # Development config
└── tsconfig.build.json   # Build config

Package naming:

• Input: foo-bar → Package: @kitz/foo-bar
• Input: core → Package: @kitz/core

Notes

• The kitz aggregator package is separate and exports from all other packages
• After creating, you may want to add the new package to kitz/src/ exports
• Run syncing-package-scripts skill if the new package needs updated scripts
