global-tech-stack
Reference and maintain project technology stack documentation including frameworks, languages, databases, testing tools, deployment infrastructure, and third-party services. Use this skill when needing to understand what technologies and frameworks are used in the project, when making architectural decisions about adding new dependencies, when documenting the tech stack for team members, or when ensuring consistency across technology choices. Use when working with configuration files (package.json, requirements.txt, Gemfile, Cargo.toml), when setting up new services or integrations, when choosing between multiple library options, or when onboarding new developers who need to understand the project's technical foundation. Reference this when making decisions about ORM choices, testing frameworks, CSS frameworks, frontend libraries, or deployment platforms.
When & Why to Use This Skill
The Global Tech Stack skill serves as a centralized intelligence layer for managing and referencing a project's technical foundation. It enables Claude to maintain comprehensive documentation of frameworks, languages, databases, and infrastructure, ensuring architectural consistency and informed decision-making when integrating new dependencies or scaling services.
Use Cases
- Architectural Decision Support: Evaluate and select the most compatible libraries, ORMs, or CSS frameworks based on the existing project ecosystem.
- Automated Tech Stack Documentation: Maintain up-to-date records of the project's technical debt and choices within READMEs or dedicated architecture files.
- Dependency Management & Auditing: Analyze configuration files like package.json, requirements.txt, or Cargo.toml to ensure new integrations align with established technology standards.
- Developer Onboarding: Streamline the ramp-up process for new team members by providing an instant, detailed overview of the project's languages, testing tools, and deployment infrastructure.
- Infrastructure Consistency: Reference established deployment platforms and third-party services to prevent tool sprawl and ensure uniform environment setups.
