Builder Action Scaffold
Use this skill when the task is to add a new Jido.Action and keep the surrounding contributor workflow consistent.
Workflow
- Capture the action name, schema, return contract, and deterministic fallback behavior.
- Generate the module with explicit validation, tagged tuple errors, and any helper actions it needs.
- Add focused tests that cover success, validation failures, and operational edge cases.
- Record the workbench follow-up items: example page, ecosystem entry, and docs references if needed.
Package Boundary
- Package repo: action module, tests, changelog, and package README updates.
- Workbench repo: ecosystem page updates, example/tutorial references, and contributor-facing docs.
Deliverables
- action module scaffold
- companion test outline
- workbench follow-up checklist
