| description | Scaffold a new API service with request functions, Zod schemas, URL constants, and optional MSW mock handlers. Use this skill whenever the user asks to "add a service", "create the projects API", "scaffold a new GAIA service", "wire up CRUD for users", or anything implying a new folder under `app/services/gaia/{name}/` with parsers/types/requests + matching `test/mocks/{name}/` collections. |

new-service
Trigger: user asks to scaffold an API service.
Workflow
- Confirm: name (kebab), endpoints, schema (
name:type pairs), with mocks?
- Run:
.gaia/cli/gaia scaffold service <name> --endpoints "..." --schema "..." [--mocks]
- Verify:
pnpm typecheck clean; if --mocks, run a single MSW round-trip in a vitest test.
- Wire the service into the consuming page/hook (CLI does not do this, manual).
Flags
--endpoints "get,post,put,delete", required (subset of get/post/put/delete)--schema "id:string,name:string,status:enum(active,archived)", required--mocks, also emit MSW mock collection--json, emit ScaffoldResult JSON
Schema types: string, number, boolean, datetime, enum(a,b,...). Append ? for optional.
