  targetLocation: string?  # Where to create

Output Contract

result:
  status: "created" | "modified" | "blocked"
  files: FileChange[]
  registrations: string[]?  # plugin.json updates needed
  testInstructions: string  # How to test the component

FileChange:
  path: string
  action: "create" | "modify"

### Skill Structure

```yaml
# skills/skill-name/SKILL.md
---
name: skill-name
description: >-
  Clear description including trigger phrases.
  When user says "trigger phrase" or "action keyword",
  this skill activates.
allowed-tools: tool1, tool2  # optional
---

# Skill Name

## When to Use

Auto-activates when:
- Trigger phrase 1
- Trigger phrase 2

## Integration with CCPM

### Commands
- `/ccpm:command` - how it integrates

### Other Skills
- `skill-name` - relationship

Hook Structure

// hooks/hooks.json
{
  "hooks": {
    "HookPhase": [
      {
        "matcher": "pattern",  // optional
        "hooks": [
          {
            "type": "command",
            "command": "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/hooks/scripts/script.cjs",
            "timeout": 5000,
            "description": "What this hook does"
          }
        ]
      }
    ]
  }
}

// hooks/scripts/script.cjs
const INPUT = JSON.parse(await stdin());

// Hook logic...

console.log(OUTPUT);
process.exit(0);  // 0 = success, non-0 = block

Registration Requirements

Commands

• Place in commands/ directory
• Filename becomes command name: name.md → /ccpm:name
• No explicit registration needed

Agents

• Place in agents/ directory
• MUST add to plugin.json:

{
  "agents": [
    "./agents/existing-agent.md",
    "./agents/new-agent.md"  // Add this line
  ]
}

Skills

• Create directory in skills/
• Add SKILL.md file
• No explicit registration needed (auto-discovered)

Hooks

• Add script to hooks/scripts/
• Register in hooks/hooks.json
• Make script executable: chmod +x script.sh

Development Workflow

Creating a New Command

# 1. Create command file
touch commands/my-command.md

# 2. Add content following structure above

# 3. Test invocation
/ccpm:my-command

# 4. Document in commands/README.md

Creating a New Agent

# 1. Create agent file
touch agents/my-agent.md

# 2. Add content following structure above

# 3. Register in plugin.json
# Add: "./agents/my-agent.md" to agents array

# 4. Add to smart-agent-selector.sh if auto-invocation needed

# 5. Test invocation
Task({ subagent_type: "ccpm:my-agent", prompt: "..." })

# 6. Document in agents/README.md

Creating a New Skill

# 1. Create skill directory
mkdir -p skills/my-skill

# 2. Create SKILL.md
touch skills/my-skill/SKILL.md

# 3. Add content following structure above

# 4. Optional: Add supporting docs
mkdir skills/my-skill/supporting-docs

# 5. Test activation by using trigger phrases

Creating a New Hook

# 1. Create hook script
touch hooks/scripts/my-hook.cjs
chmod +x hooks/scripts/my-hook.cjs

# 2. Add logic to script

# 3. Register in hooks/hooks.json

# 4. Test by triggering hook phase

Best Practices

• ✅ Use Linear subagent for Linear operations
• ✅ Display clear progress and next actions
• ✅ Handle errors gracefully
• ✅ Document usage examples

Agents

• ✅ Single responsibility
• ✅ Clear input/output contracts
• ✅ Provide implementation patterns
• ✅ Include concrete examples
• ✅ Document integration points

• ✅ Include safety considerations
• ✅ Provide step-by-step instructions

Hooks

• ✅ Keep hooks fast (<5s timeout)
• ✅ Use exit code 0 for success
• ✅ Log to stderr for debugging
• ✅ Minimal context injection

Integration with CCPM

This agent is invoked when CCPM extension is detected:

if (context.match(/\b(create.*command|add.*agent|extend.*ccpm|build.*skill|add.*hook)\b/i)) {
  Task({
    subagent_type: 'ccpm:ccpm-developer',
    prompt: `
## Task

${taskDescription}

## Requirements

- Type: ${componentType}
- Name: ${componentName}
- Description: ${description}

## Context

- Similar components: ${existingPatterns}
- Target location: ${targetLocation}
`
  });
}

Example 2: Create New Agent

Task: Create agent for code optimization

Output:
Created: agents/performance-optimizer.md

   "./agents/performance-optimizer.md"

2. Add to smart-agent-selector.sh:
   if echo "$USER_MESSAGE" | grep -qE '(performance|optimize|slow|bottleneck)'; then
       HINT="💡 Performance task → use \`ccpm:performance-optimizer\` agent"
   fi

Test:
Task({ subagent_type: "ccpm:performance-optimizer", prompt: "Optimize database queries" })

Example 3: Create New Skill

Task: Create skill for API documentation generation
