Make It Ezy — discover, gated-install, and apply the minimum useful skills for an outcome, then KEEP BUILDING in the current project. Use when the user says /ezy, "make it ezy", "use ezy", or describes an outcome like "build me…", "improve…", "add…" and wants skill discovery before coding. Writes a researched brief first, then plans from it. Do not stop after the CLI prints a handoff prompt.

The file

We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent

7 rules. About 0 are common, 3 are distinctive, and 4 are very specific to this project.

  • ≈0

    Common · estimate

    Many files like this have a rule of this kind.

  • ≈3

    Distinctive · estimate

    This author's own choices. Worth a look.

  • 4

    Very specific

    Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.

  1. Very specific:

    Ask the user for their Make It Ezy checkout path.

  2. Very specific:

    If the binary/dist is missing, run pnpm build inside the Make It Ezy repo and retry.

    line 26
  3. Distinctive:

    Always run commands with cwd = the project the user wants changed (not the Make It Ezy repo, unless that *is* the project).

    line 28
  4. Very specific:

    Install (gated): If the checklist lists ezy install …, ask for approval, then run those install commands (include --source when the …

    line 39
  5. Very specific:

    Read each listed skill’s SKILL.md under .agents/skills/<name>/

    line 42
  6. Distinctive:

    Prefer verified/low-risk behavior.

    line 45
  7. Distinctive:

    Anti-stop: After steps 2–6, continue into step 7 in the same effort.

    line 46

≈ “Common” is an estimate: at least 1 in 5 of the 350,495 skill files we read have a rule of the same kind, not the same words. “Very specific” is our guess from the words: it names a file, a command, a setting or the project itself.

Keep what fits and drop the rest. Your version, ready for your agents.

Make It Ezy (agent adapter)

You are running Make It Ezy inside this session. The CLI finds skills; you implement the outcome. Ending the turn after only showing CLI output is a failure.

Scope: Ezy is built for coding tasks in a repo today. For non-code outcomes, still run the flow, but expect Uncovered requirements and handle them directly.

Resolve the CLI

Prefer, in order:

  1. ezy on PATH
  2. node "$MAKE_IT_EZY_ROOT/apps/cli/dist/index.js" when MAKE_IT_EZY_ROOT is set
  3. Ask the user for their Make It Ezy checkout path; then use
    node <that-path>/apps/cli/dist/index.js

If the binary/dist is missing, run pnpm build inside the Make It Ezy repo and retry. Do not skip the CLI.

Always run commands with cwd = the project the user wants changed (not the Make It Ezy repo, unless that is the project).

Procedure

  1. Clarify the outcome in one short phrase if the user was vague.
  2. Brief: run ezy brief "<outcome>" (or the node …/dist/index.js brief "…" form). It prints the project summary, research instructions, the brief schema, and the next command. Research the outcome as instructed (classify the research type; research only what the decision needs; prefer primary sources and record each source; list exclusions with reasons), then write .ezy/brief.json. Trivial outcomes may skip this step; planning then falls back to heuristics and says so.
  3. Handoff:
    ezy next "<outcome>" --brief .ezy/brief.json
    (omit --brief if you skipped the brief). Use network unless the user asked for --local-only. If it exits 2, fix the brief at the reported paths and re-run.
    Planning is project-aware (uses the current project + outcome + brief; prefers a minimum skill set).
  4. Show Project / Requirements / Skills / Checklist briefly to the user.
  5. Install (gated): If the checklist lists ezy install …, ask for approval, then run those install commands (include --source when the checklist provides it; add --brief .ezy/brief.json only to ezy install --plan … commands, if you used a brief). Do not pass --yes unless the user already approved non-interactive install.
  6. Re-run ezy next "<outcome>" [--brief .ezy/brief.json] (brief only if used) after installs if skills were missing before.
  7. Execute the Prompt block:
    • Read each listed skill’s SKILL.md under .agents/skills/<name>/
    • Follow those skills
    • Implement the outcome in this project
    • Prefer verified/low-risk behavior; do not invent skill names
  8. Anti-stop: After steps 2–6, continue into step 7 in the same effort. Never report “CLI only printed a handoff” as done.

Empty / new folders

Proceed even if there is no package.json. Skills install into cwd .agents/skills/. Optionally note that adding a minimal package.json helps project detection — do not block on it.

Trust

Popularity ≠ safety. External skills are untrusted until inspected. Offer ezy inspect <name> when risk is unclear. The brief is your output; Ezy validates its shape but does not verify your findings — cite sources. This skill does not claim deep verification.

Examples

User: /ezy build me a profile page
→ brief "build me a profile page" → research, write .ezy/brief.json → next … --brief .ezy/brief.json → approve installs → read SKILL.md paths → build the page here
User: use make it ezy to improve onboarding in this repo
→ same procedure with outcome "improve onboarding"
