More from vtex/ai-skills
headless-checkout-proxy
Apply when implementing cart, checkout, or order placement logic proxied through a BFF for headless VTEX storefronts. Covers OrderForm lifecycle, cart creation, item management, profile/shipping/payment attachments, orderFormId management, and secure checkout flows. Use for any headless frontend that needs to proxy VTEX Checkout API calls through a server-side layer with proper session cookie handling.
1vtex-io-masterdata
Apply when working with MasterData v2 entities, schemas, or MasterDataClient in VTEX IO apps, or when anyone designing or implementing a solution must scrutinize whether Master Data is the correct storage. The skill prompts hard questions: native Catalog or other VTEX stores, OMS, or an external database may be better; do not default to MD because it is convenient. Covers JSON Schema, CRUD, triggers, search and scroll, schema lifecycle, purchase-path avoidance, single source of truth, and BFF handoffs. Use for justified custom persistence while avoiding the 60-schema limit.
1vtex-io-app-settings
Apply when defining, validating, or consuming VTEX IO app settings. Covers settingsSchema, app-level configuration boundaries, and how backend or frontend code should depend on settings safely. Use for merchant-configurable behavior, settings forms, or reviewing whether settings belong in app configuration rather than hardcoded logic or custom data entities.
1vtex-io-service-runtime
Apply when designing or implementing the runtime structure of a VTEX IO backend app under node/. Covers the Service entrypoint, typed context and state, service.json runtime configuration, and how routes, events, and GraphQL handlers are registered and executed. Use for structuring backend apps, defining runtime boundaries, or fixing execution-model issues in VTEX IO services.
1vtex-io-admin-react
Apply when building VTEX IO admin-facing React interfaces under the admin builder. Covers VTEX Styleguide and Shoreline usage, admin page composition, data-heavy admin interactions, and keeping administrative interfaces consistent with the VTEX Admin environment. Use for settings pages, moderation tools, dashboards, or operational UIs inside VTEX Admin.
1vtex-io-app-structure
Apply when creating or modifying manifest.json, service.json, or node/package.json in a VTEX IO app. Covers builders (node, react, graphql, admin, pixel, messages, store), policy declarations, dependencies, peerDependencies, and app lifecycle management. Use for scaffolding new VTEX IO apps, configuring builders, or fixing deployment failures related to app structure and naming conventions.
