Domo App Initial Build Playbook

When to use

• Use at project kickoff for a brand-new Domo custom app.
• Use when taking over an existing app and normalizing it to platform best practices.

Apply these rules first (always-on)

• rules/core-custom-apps-rule.md
• rules/custom-app-gotchas.md

Recommended skill order for initial build

1. cap-apps-manifest - define mappings/contracts first.
2. cap-apps-domo-js - baseline app shell, navigation, events, environment usage.
3. cap-apps-dataset-query (and cap-apps-data-api) - data access with query-first patterns.
4. cap-apps-appdb - persistent app state/documents.
5. cap-apps-toolkit - move to typed toolkit clients where useful.
6. cap-apps-ai-service-layer / cap-apps-code-engine / cap-apps-workflow as needed by features.
7. cap-apps-performance before finalizing queries.
8. cap-apps-publish for release flow and first-publish ID handling.
