description	Use when adding app features via the built-in generator (model/controller/resource/authentication/job/admin), including expected file mutations and post-generation validation.

Monolith Generator Workflows

Use this skill when

• You need to scaffold features quickly and safely.
• You need to know all supported generator subcommands.

Generator surface

make generator <command> [args]

Supported commands:

• model
• controller
• resource
• authentication
• job
• admin

Behavior summary

• model: creates model + model test; updates db/db.go AutoMigrate.
• controller: creates controller + controller test + views; optionally injects routes.
• resource: combines model + pluralized controller with full CRUD actions.
• authentication: scaffolds user model, session helpers, auth middleware/controller/templates/routes.
• job: creates job file + test, updates job enum and queue registration.
• admin: scaffolds dashboard/middleware/routes, and auto-runs auth generation if User model is missing.

Safe scaffolding checklist

1. Run generator command.
2. Inspect modified files for route collisions/import order.
3. Fill TODO placeholders in generated handlers/jobs.
4. Run gofmt if needed and go test ./....
5. Start app and manually hit generated routes.

Practical patterns

• Greenfield CRUD: make generator resource post title:string body:string
• Existing model + UI: make generator controller posts index show new create edit update destroy
• Async task: make generator job SendDigest
• Auth bootstrap: make generator authentication
• Admin/profiling: make generator admin
