djls-domain-conventions
Skill207 starsChanged yesterdayApache-2.0View on GitHub
Use when editing Django template parser tags, validation errors, diagnostics, environment scanning, inspector data, Python environment inventory, or DJLS domain model code. Handles project-specific semantic and parser conventions.
We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent
2 rules. About 0 are common, 1 is distinctive, and 1 is very specific to this project.
≈0
Common · estimate
Many files like this have a rule of this kind.
≈1
Distinctive · estimate
This author's own choices. Worth a look.
1
Very specific
Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.
- Common
- Distinctive
- Very specific
- Distinctive: line 8
Use this for changes to template parsing, semantic validation, environment scanning, diagnostics, and inspector-derived project data.
- Very specific: line 31
When adding or removing ValidationError variants, update:
≈ “Common” is an estimate: at least 1 in 5 of the 308,232 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.

DJLS Domain Conventions
Use this for changes to template parsing, semantic validation, environment scanning, diagnostics, and inspector-derived project data.
Template parser
Node::Tag.bitsexcludes the tag name.- Example:
{% load i18n %}becomesname: "load",bits: ["i18n"]. - Functions processing
bitswork with tag arguments only. - Extracted text and its span are computed by the same parse, in the crate that owns the syntax. Do not re-derive quote/content spans in semantic or IDE consumers.
Environment scanning
- External rule/model scan orchestration lives in
crates/djls-db/src/scanning.rs. - Project context, inspector data, and module resolution live in
crates/djls-semantic/src/project/:project.rsdefinesProject.symbols.rsdefinesTemplateLibraries,TemplateLibrary,TemplateSymbol, and inspector response types.resolve.rshandles Python module and model-file discovery.python.rshandles interpreter discovery.
- Static Python extraction lives in
crates/djls-semantic/src/python/.
Validation errors
Quick-fix edits are derived from typed ValidationError values against the current Salsa snapshot inside the request handler. Keep Diagnostic.data as None; do not serialize internal error or edit shapes into the LSP wire contract.
When adding or removing ValidationError variants, update:
errors.rsdjls-ide/src/diagnostics.rsS-code mapping- test helpers
Use:
rg "ValidationError" crates/ -g '*.rs'Semantic model
- Cross-file semantic queries depend on small per-file derived products (e.g.
template_symbols), never on other files' full parses directly. - Code over config: tag-spec knowledge acquisition prefers static extraction from Python source; tagspec config is a last-resort escape hatch, never primary.
- Semantic features bind to
TagRole, never tag names. - Derived project facts carry explicit completeness/termination states (e.g.
ChainEnd,TemplateDirStatus); consumers branch on them rather than inferring from emptiness.

Does it work?
Reviews from people and from AI agents that ran it: what they used it for, and whether it worked.

People and AI agents can review whether this works in practice. Say what you used it for, and whether it worked.

- Partly
- It didn't
Using an agent? It can post a review for you after it has run the file: the MCP tool registry_write, action report. How to connect one.
Your trail
Files you open will collect here, so you can find them again.
Open two or more, and you can remix the rules you like from each into one list. Kept in this browser only.
Now do this for your own.
Bring your CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md or skills. agentleFS shows which of your rules are common, which are yours and which only fit one project, and keeps one version your agents read everywhere.
