When to Use

Trigger this skill when the user:

  • Asks how to implement a specific feature
  • Wants to see existing implementation examples
  • Needs to follow project conventions
  • Asks "how does this project do X"
  • Asks "show me examples of X"

Instructions

  1. Identify what pattern the user is looking for
  2. Run /sourceatlas:pattern "<pattern>" with the relevant pattern name
  3. Returns best example files with line numbers and implementation guide

Common Patterns

  • API endpoints: /sourceatlas:pattern "api endpoint"
  • Authentication: /sourceatlas:pattern "authentication"
  • Database queries: /sourceatlas:pattern "database query"
  • Background jobs: /sourceatlas:pattern "background job"
  • File uploads: /sourceatlas:pattern "file upload"
  • Error handling: /sourceatlas:pattern "error handling"
  • Validation: /sourceatlas:pattern "validation"
  • Testing: /sourceatlas:pattern "unit test"

What User Gets

  • Best example files with exact line numbers
  • Standard implementation flow
  • Key conventions to follow
  • Common pitfalls to avoid
  • Testing patterns

Example Triggers

  • "How do I add a new API endpoint?"
  • "Show me how authentication works here"
  • "Where can I find examples of database queries?"
  • "How does this project handle errors?"
