start-dev

Skill1 starsChanged 25 days agoMITView on GitHub

Launch one of the user's local-dev apps (nebi, nebari-landing, nebari-chat-pack, jhub-apps, nebari-llm-serving-pack, provenance-collector-pack, nebari-apps-pack, collab-hub-pack, analytics-pack, nebari-local) in its fast inner-loop mode; for nebari-local, brings up the local cluster and its gateway port-forward. Triggers on /start-dev, "start dev for <app>", "run <app> locally", "spin up <app>", "launch <app> for local development".

We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent

3 rules. 0 are common, 2 are distinctive, and 1 is very specific to this project.

  • 0

    Common

    Most of the 3 edited versions we read keep these.

  • 2

    Distinctive

    This author's own choices. Worth a look.

  • 1

    Very specific

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

  • Very specific
  1. Distinctive:

    If no app is named or the match is ambiguous, list the apps and ask which one.

    line 29
  2. Distinctive:

    Always end with the app's URLs list (from its recipe, corrected for what actually started — e.g.

    line 45
  3. Very specific:

    Write references/apps/<app>.md in the same shape as the others (heading with repo path, one-line summary, the local-mode commands, URLs, …

    line 52

“Common” is measured: kept by at least 6 in 10 of the 3 edited versions of this file we could read. “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.

start-dev

Starts a named app in its lightweight local mode (fast inner loop), not the full Kubernetes cluster mode. Cluster mode is documented per app but only used when the user explicitly asks for it ("full cluster", "k8s", "minikube", "k3d", "Tilt").

Usage

The user names an app (e.g. /start-dev nebi, "spin up the chat pack"). Match loosely:

Alias / mentionAppRepo
nebinebi~/repos/nebi
nebari-landing, landingnebari-landing~/repos/nebari-landing
nebari-chat-pack, chat, chat-packnebari-chat-pack~/repos/nebari-chat-pack

analytics-pack, analytics, umami, analytics packanalytics-pack~/repos/analytics-pack
nebari-local, local, cluster, port-forward, gatewaynebari-local~/repos/nebari-local

If no app is named or the match is ambiguous, list the apps and ask which one.

How to run

Each app's recipe — commands, ports, env vars, URLs, gotchas, and cluster mode — lives in references/apps/<app>.md (named after the App column above). Read only the matched app's file, then follow it.

Dev servers are long-running. Start each server with run_in_background: true, then report the URL(s) the user should open. After starting, briefly tail the background output to confirm it came up (no immediate crash) before reporting success. If a documented command fails, check that repo's README.md / Makefile — these commands may drift. When you find drift, offer to fix the app's recipe file.

After launching

Always end with the app's URLs list (from its recipe, corrected for what actually started — e.g. the real Vite port, or only the processes that were launched), plus: which command was run and any env var the user still needs to set. Note that the server is running in the background and how to stop it (Ctrl+C / the background-task controls).

Adding an app

Write references/apps/<app>.md in the same shape as the others (heading with repo path, one-line summary, the local-mode commands, URLs, notes, then cluster mode), add a row to the table above, and add the app name to the description so it triggers.
