Project Setup (C)

When to Use

Use this skill when the user asks to create a new C project, set up CMake with ovrtx, scaffold a C++ app, or configure build dependencies.

Inputs

Resolve inputs in this order: existing repository files and referenced snippets, explicit user request, then broader agent context.

• Project language, package manager, build system, and target platform from the user request.
• Whether the project should use packaged ovrtx or the local dev-mode build.
• Repository source snippets and example projects referenced below. Treat these snippets as the API source of truth.

Prerequisites

• Use an ovrtx checkout that contains the referenced examples and docs tests.
• Confirm Python, CMake, compiler, and package-index requirements before giving setup commands.
• Avoid modifying tracked dependency files unless the user explicitly asks for project scaffolding changes.
