Rails Bootstrap (One-time Mac Setup)

Take a Mac user from a near-blank dev environment to a Rails app running in their browser. Conversational interview, automated execution, pedagogical voice. Delegates Rails app generation to jr-rails-new; this skill handles the prerequisites and the wiring.

Read @references/guide.md and follow it. Do not proceed without it.

When to use

  • Brand-new Mac with no dev tools installed.
  • First Rails app on this machine.
  • User is non-technical and wants a guided path.

Not for: generating additional Rails apps after the machine is set up (use jr-rails-new directly), per-project work (use jr-rails-classic / jr-rails-phlex), deployment (out of scope), or SSH key setup (out of scope - HTTPS only).

Hard preconditions (assumed, not verified)

  • Mac on macOS 14+
  • Claude Code already installed, authenticated, running (this skill is invoked from Claude Code; it cannot install its host)
  • Claude Pro or Max subscription (no API-key spend assumed)
