Constructive PNPM
PNPM workspace management, package publishing, and monorepo best practices for Constructive projects.
When to Apply
Use this skill when:
- Configuring pnpm workspaces and monorepo settings
- Publishing TypeScript packages to npm with makage and lerna
- Managing workspace dependencies and cross-package references
- Setting up the dist-folder publishing pattern
- Understanding deep nested imports vs
exportsmap (anti-pattern)
Key Concepts
Dist-Folder Publishing (TypeScript/JS Only)
Constructive publishes TypeScript/JS packages from the dist/ folder, which becomes the package root on npm. This means:
main: "index.js"points todist/index.jsafter publish

In-repo planning and specification system for software projects. Use when asked to "create a plan", "write a spec", "document a proposal", "blueprint a feature", or when doing architectural planning work.
20pgsql-parser-testing
Test the pgsql-parser repository (SQL parser/deparser). Use when working in the pgsql-parser repo, fixing deparser issues, running parser tests, or validating SQL round-trips. Scoped specifically to the constructive-io/pgsql-parser repository.
18constructive-graphql-codegen
Generate type-safe React Query hooks, Prisma-like ORM client, or inquirerer-based CLI from GraphQL endpoints, schema files/directories, databases, or PGPM modules using @constructive-io/graphql-codegen. Also generates documentation (README, AGENTS.md, skills/, mcp.json). Use when asked to "generate GraphQL hooks", "generate ORM", "generate CLI", "set up codegen", "generate docs", "generate skills", "export schema", or when implementing data fetching for a PostGraphile backend.
17constructive-server-config
Configure and run the Constructive GraphQL server (cnc server), GraphiQL explorer (cnc explorer), and code generation (cnc codegen). Use when asked to "start the server", "run cnc server", "start GraphQL API", "run GraphiQL", "configure API routing", "generate types", or when working with the Constructive CLI and PostGraphile.
17constructive-boilerplate-nextjs-app
Set up and develop with the Constructive App frontend boilerplate — a Next.js application with authentication, organization management, invites, members, and a GraphQL SDK. Use when scaffolding a new Constructive frontend application from the boilerplate.
