Create all necessary files and directories so that a new product can be built in this project. A "product" represents an operating system (e.g., RHEL 11, Ubuntu 26.04) or an application (e.g., Firefox, Nginx).

The skill produces a minimal but buildable product skeleton. The product must build successfully with build_product by the end.

Arguments: $ARGUMENTS — optional, format: <product_id> <product_full_name>

For additional background on creating products, read docs/manual/developer/03_creating_content.md.

Out of scope: creating controls, creating profiles beyond a minimal default, porting content from other products, developing new rules, adjusting existing rules for the new product, updating Automatus tests, adding reference files or overlays.

Tool Strategy

This skill uses mcp__content-agent__* tools when available (preferred — deterministic, structured results). When the MCP server is not configured, fall back to filesystem-based alternatives noted as Fallback in each step. See .claude/skills/shared/mcp_fallbacks.md for detailed fallback procedures. The skill must complete successfully either way.

Phase 1: Gather product information

If $ARGUMENTS provides a product ID and full name, use them. Otherwise, ask the user using AskUserQuestion for:

Full product name (e.g., "Red Hat Enterprise Linux 11", "Ubuntu 24.04").
Product ID — must be lowercase, no spaces, consistent with existing product IDs (e.g., rhel11 follows rhel10). Suggest an ID based on the full name and existing patterns.
Product type — ask whether this is a Linux OS or an application.

Then determine whether this is a new major version of an existing product (e.g., creating rhel11 when rhel10 exists) or an entirely new product family (no similar product in the project). Use mcp__content-agent__list_products to check existing products. Fallback: Run ls products/ to list existing product directories.

Verify the product ID is not already taken:

Check that no products/<product_id>/ directory exists.
Check that the product ID does not appear in the product_directories list in ssg/constants.py.

Phase 2: Create the product directory

Create the directory products/<product_id>/.
Create products/<product_id>/CMakeLists.txt. Find the most similar existing product's CMakeLists.txt and adapt it. The minimal content is:

# Sometimes our users will try to do: "cd <product_id>; cmake ." That needs to error in a nice way.
if("${CMAKE_SOURCE_DIR}" STREQUAL "${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR}")
    message(FATAL_ERROR "cmake has to be used on the root CMakeLists.txt, see the Building ComplianceAsCode section in the Developer Guide!")
endif()

ssg_build_product("<product_id>")

Some products also include set(PRODUCT_REMEDIATION_LANGUAGES "<product_id>") before the ssg_build_product call. Check the most similar product's CMakeLists.txt and match its structure.

Create subdirectories products/<product_id>/controls/ and products/<product_id>/profiles/. These will be empty for now but are needed by the build system.

Phase 3: Create Benchmark

If the product is a Linux OS: no action needed. Linux products reuse linux_os/guide/ as their benchmark directory (configured via benchmark_root in product.yml in Phase 5).
If the product is an application: create products/<product_id>/guide/ and add a benchmark.yml file inside it. Read an existing application product's benchmark.yml (e.g., from applications/) for the expected format and adapt it for the new product.

Phase 4: Update the build system

All insertions in this phase should maintain alphabetical order within each section.

4.1: Update `build_product` script

Add the new product (in UPPERCASE) to the all_cmake_products array in alphabetical order.

Example — to add rhel11:

all_cmake_products=(
    ...
    RHEL10
    RHEL11    # <-- insert here
    RHV4
    ...
)

4.2: Update root `CMakeLists.txt`

The root CMakeLists.txt has three separate sections that all need updating. The product ID must be UPPERCASE in CMake variables (e.g., SSG_PRODUCT_RHEL11).

Section 1: CMake option. Add:

option(SSG_PRODUCT_<PRODUCT_ID_UPPER> "If enabled, the <Full Name> SCAP content will be built" ${SSG_PRODUCT_DEFAULT})

Section 2: Status message. Add:

message(STATUS "<Display Name>: ${SSG_PRODUCT_<PRODUCT_ID_UPPER>}")

Section 3: Subdirectory (around line 384-490). Add:

if(SSG_PRODUCT_<PRODUCT_ID_UPPER>)
    add_subdirectory("products/<product_id>" "<product_id>")
endif()

Example for rhel11:

# Section 1:
option(SSG_PRODUCT_RHEL11 "If enabled, the RHEL11 SCAP content will be built" ${SSG_PRODUCT_DEFAULT})

# Section 2:
message(STATUS "RHEL 11: ${SSG_PRODUCT_RHEL11}")

# Section 3:
if(SSG_PRODUCT_RHEL11)
    add_subdirectory("products/rhel11" "rhel11")
endif()

4.3: Update `ssg/constants.py`

Update the following data structures:

product_directories list: Add the product ID string in alphabetical order.

FULL_NAME_TO_PRODUCT_MAPPING dict: Add a mapping from the full product name to the product ID.

"Red Hat Enterprise Linux 11": "rhel11",

MULTI_PLATFORM_LIST and MULTI_PLATFORM_MAPPING dict:

If the product is a new major version of an existing family (e.g., rhel11 when rhel already exists): add the product ID to the existing list in MULTI_PLATFORM_MAPPING. Do NOT add a new entry to MULTI_PLATFORM_LIST.
```
"multi_platform_rhel": ["rhel8", "rhel9", "rhel10", "rhel11"],
```

If the product is an entirely new family: add the family name to MULTI_PLATFORM_LIST and add a new entry to MULTI_PLATFORM_MAPPING.

MULTI_PLATFORM_LIST = [..., "newproduct"]
MULTI_PLATFORM_MAPPING = {
    ...
    "multi_platform_newfamily": ["newproduct"],
}

MAKEFILE_ID_TO_PRODUCT_MAP dict: This dict maps family prefixes (not full product IDs) to display names. For a new version of an existing family, the existing entry already covers it — no change needed. Only add a new entry for an entirely new product family.

4.4: Validate Python changes

After editing ssg/constants.py, verify it still imports cleanly:

python3 -c "from ssg import constants; print('OK')"

Phase 5: Create product.yml

Create products/<product_id>/product.yml. Find the most similar existing product's product.yml (use mcp__content-agent__get_product_details or read directly from products/) and adapt it for the new product. Fallback: Read products/<similar_product>/product.yml directly.

Copy all fields from the similar product and update values for the new product. Key fields to set correctly:

product: the product ID
full_name: the full product name
type: typically platform for OS products
benchmark_root: "../../linux_os/guide" for Linux OS products, "./guide" for application products
components_root: only for Linux operating system products, typically "../../components"
pkg_manager: package manager (e.g., "dnf", "apt_get", "zypper"), only for for Linux OS products
init_system: init system (e.g., "systemd"), only for Linux OS products
cpes: must reference a check_id that matches the OVAL file created in Phase 6

Example: product.yml for a RHEL-based product

product: rhel9
full_name: Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9
type: platform

families:
  - rhel
  - rhel-like

major_version_ordinal: 9

benchmark_id: RHEL-9
benchmark_root: "../../linux_os/guide"
components_root: "../../components"

profiles_root: "./profiles"

pkg_manager: "dnf"

init_system: "systemd"

cpes_root: "../../shared/applicability"
cpes:
  - rhel9:
      name: "cpe:/o:redhat:enterprise_linux:9"
      title: "Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9"
      check_id: installed_OS_is_rhel9

Phase 6: Create CPE OVAL check

Create shared/checks/oval/<check_id>.xml where <check_id> matches the check_id value set in product.yml (Phase 5).

How to create it: find the CPE OVAL file for the most similar existing product in shared/checks/oval/ and adapt it. If this is a new major version, the new OVAL must be consistent with the existing version's OVAL (same structure, updated version numbers).

Requirements:

The file must use the shorthand format (wrapped in <def-group>), not a full standalone OVAL file.
The OVAL definition must evaluate to true when running on the new product.

Example for a hummingbird product:

<def-group>
  <definition class="inventory" id="installed_OS_is_hummingbird" version="3">
    <metadata>
      <title>Installed operating system is hummingbird</title>
      <affected family="unix">
        <platform>multi_platform_all</platform>
      </affected>
      <reference ref_id="cpe:/a:redhat:hummingbird" source="CPE" />
      <description>The operating system installed on the system is hummingbird</description>
    </metadata>
    <criteria operator="AND">
      <extend_definition comment="Installed OS is part of the Unix family" definition_ref="installed_OS_is_part_of_Unix_family" />
      <criterion comment="hummingbird-release RPM packages are installed" test_ref="test_hummingbird_release_rpm" />
      <criterion comment="CPE vendor is 'redhat' and product is 'hummingbird'" test_ref="test_hummingbird_vendor_product" />
    </criteria>
  </definition>

  <linux:rpminfo_test check="all" check_existence="at_least_one_exists" comment="hummingbird-release RPM packages are installed" id="test_hummingbird_release_rpm" version="1">
    <linux:object object_ref="object_hummingbird_release_rpm" />
  </linux:rpminfo_test>
  <linux:rpminfo_object id="object_hummingbird_release_rpm" version="1">
    <linux:name operation="pattern match">hummingbird-release.*</linux:name>
  </linux:rpminfo_object>

  <ind:textfilecontent54_test check="all" comment="CPE vendor is 'redhat' and 'product' is hummingbird" id="test_hummingbird_vendor_product" version="1">
    <ind:object object_ref="object_hummingbird_vendor_product" />
  </ind:textfilecontent54_test>
  <ind:textfilecontent54_object id="object_hummingbird_vendor_product" version="1">
    <ind:filepath>/etc/system-release-cpe</ind:filepath>
    <ind:pattern operation="pattern match">^cpe:\/a:redhat:hummingbird:[\d]+$</ind:pattern>
    <ind:instance datatype="int" operation="equals">1</ind:instance>
  </ind:textfilecontent54_object>

</def-group>

This example shows a typical CPE OVAL for a Linux OS product. Key points:

definition@id must match the check_id from product.yml
reference@ref_id must match the name (CPE URI) from product.yml
The definition checks three things: (1) the OS is Unix-family, (2) a product-specific RPM is installed, (3) /etc/system-release-cpe contains the expected CPE string

For application products, the CPE OVAL typically just checks that the application's RPM package is installed.

Phase 7: Create a minimal profile

The product must have at least one profile containing at least one rule, otherwise the build will fail.

Ask the user (using AskUserQuestion) if they want to adopt a profile from a similar existing product. If yes, copy it from the similar product's profiles/ directory and adapt it.
If the user has no preference, create a minimal standard profile in products/<product_id>/profiles/standard.profile that selects a single broadly-applicable rule, eg. installed_OS_is_vendor_supported.

Minimal standard profile example

documentation_complete: true

title: 'Standard Profile for <Full Product Name>'

description: |-
    A standard compliance profile for <Full Product Name>.

selections:
    - installed_OS_is_vendor_supported

Phase 8: Build and verify

Build the product:

./build_product --datastream-only <product_id>

Verify the build succeeded and that build/ssg-<product_id>-ds.xml exists.
If the build fails, read the error output, fix the issue, and rebuild. Common causes of build failures for new products:
- Missing or empty profile (no rules selected) — fix in Phase 7
- product.yml referencing a CPE check_id that doesn't match the OVAL file name from Phase 6
- Product ID not added to all required places in ssg/constants.py (Phase 4)
- The root CMakeLists.txt may try to build optional artifacts that don't exist yet for the new product — if the error is about a missing optional feature (e.g., STIG tables, overlay files), the fix is typically to guard the relevant CMake block with a condition or to skip non-essential build targets

Phase 9: Report

List all created and modified files, grouped by phase. Suggest next steps:

Create controls and profiles: /map-controls, /create-rule
Full build: /build-product <product_id>
