rails-bootstrap

Bootstrap a new, production-leaning Ruby on Rails application on the latest Rails (8.1.x) and Ruby (4.0.x), with version pinning, sensible defaults, and verification. Use this skill whenever the user wants to start, scaffold, generate, or set up a new Rails app, mentions `rails new`, asks for a Rails project skeleton or starter, or says things like "spin up a Rails API", "create a new Rails 8 app", or "bootstrap a Rails project" — even if they don't name the skill explicitly. Do NOT use it for modifying an existing Rails app, upgrading Rails versions, or non-Rails projects. To only verify an app that already exists, use the rails-verify skill instead.

Verify that an existing Ruby on Rails application actually works: it eager-loads cleanly, boots a real web server that answers the /up health check, and passes its test suite. Use this skill when the user wants to confirm a Rails app is healthy, sanity-check a checkout or a freshly cloned repo, gate a deploy, or run a "does this thing even boot?" check — against an app that ALREADY EXISTS. Do NOT use it to create or scaffold a new app (use rails-bootstrap for that); the rails-bootstrap skill already calls this same verification at the end of a bootstrap, so there is no need to run both back to back.
