description	Scaffold an opinionated Vite + React + Velite project for a moonshine article — markdown prose with custom React figures, hot-reloading, single-article or series mode. Use when the user wants a structured multi-file interactive explanation rather than a single self-contained HTML file. Invoked as `$still` or `$still <topic>`.

Still — Scaffold a Structured Moonshine Article Project

Use this skill to bootstrap a structured moonshine project. The user invokes it as $still or $still <topic>; Claude Code surfaces it as /moonshine:still. This is the single still entry point in every harness.

Workflow

1. Load context in order.

   • Read ../moonshine/SKILL.md for the editorial process and anti-slop rules.
   • Read ../moonshine/STILL.md for the project structure, directive grammar, registry pattern, store, and React Flow guidance.
   • Reference ../moonshine/VISUALS.md for visualization patterns inside figure components (its "In a still project" preamble covers the substrate differences).
   • The palette and type stack live in the template itself: src/styles/tokens.css is the source of truth. ../moonshine/ARTICLE.md is the shine reference — don't take scaffold or series structure from it.
   • ../moonshine/FEEDBACK.md when working with the authorship-feedback loop (comments from the rendered page).

2. Story discovery first. Follow the moonshine SKILL.md workflow — story discovery comes before code. Do not skip to scaffolding.

3. Bootstrap and iterate per STILL.md § "Workflow When Building an Article With This Skill" — that section is canonical for the project bootstrap (template copy with artifact excludes, background npm install, dev server startup and URL reporting), the per-figure iteration loop, and series-vs-single-article guidance. The template lives at ../moonshine/template/.

Anti-slop

Editorial tone and anti-slop rules from ../moonshine/SKILL.md still apply. This is an article, not a dashboard.
