app-builder

Create, implement, deploy, and debug Adobe Runtime actions with consistent layout, validation, and error handling. Use this skill whenever the user needs to add actions to an App Builder project, understand action structure (params, response format, web/raw actions), configure actions in the manifest, use App Builder SDKs (State, Files, Events, database), deploy and invoke actions via CLI, debug action issues, or implement patterns such as webhook receivers, custom event providers, journaling consumers, large payload redirects, action sequence pipelines, and Asset Compute workers. Also trigger when users mention serverless functions in Adobe context, action logging, IMS authentication for actions, or cron-style scheduled actions.

Set up CI/CD pipelines for Adobe App Builder projects. Generates GitHub Actions workflows using adobe/aio-cli-setup-action@3 and adobe/aio-apps-action@3.3.0, plus patterns for Azure DevOps and GitLab CI. Handles OAuth S2S secrets injection, multi-workspace promotion (stage → prod), deploy gating with manifest validation. Use this skill whenever the user mentions CI/CD for App Builder, GitHub Actions for aio deploy, automated deployment pipelines, continuous integration, continuous delivery, deploy automation, multi-environment promotion, aio app add ci, or wants to automate their App Builder build and release process. Also trigger when users mention deploy workflows, release pipelines, or GitHub secrets for App Builder.

Use this skill whenever the user wants browser-based end-to-end tests for an Adobe App Builder application. Covers Playwright E2E testing for ExC Shell SPAs, AEM extension UIs, and full-stack flows. Use when the user mentions: "E2E test", "end-to-end test", "Playwright", "browser test", "test my SPA in the browser", "test my AEM extension", "test the full flow", "integration test with UI", "headless browser test", "E2E in CI". This skill is for BROWSER-based testing only. For Jest unit tests of actions or React components, use appbuilder-testing instead.

Initialize an Adobe App Builder project end-to-end and prepare the machine to build one. Creates the Console project and workspace, subscribes APIs (including those needing a product profile), maps intent to the right template, runs non-interactive `aio app init`, and guides post-init customization. Use whenever the user mentions creating an App Builder app, scaffolding a project, `aio app init`, an Experience Cloud extension, adding actions or web assets, or creating a Console project/workspace — even without saying "App Builder". Also for SPA templates, AEM extensions, API Mesh, Asset Compute workers, and MCP servers. Also covers first-time machine/CLI setup (Node 20, aio CLI install, `aio login`, IMS org, stage vs prod) and debugging setup/init failures — `ERR_REQUIRE_ESM`, empty `aio console org list`, `451 accept developer terms`, template not found, init hangs, or Node/npm and post-init build errors.

Generate and run tests for Adobe App Builder actions and UI components. Scaffolds Jest unit tests, integration tests against deployed actions, contract tests for Adobe API interactions, and React component tests using Testing Library. Provides mock helpers for State, Files, Events SDKs, @adobe/aio-lib-* clients, ExC Shell context (@adobe/exc-app), and UIX Guest SDK (@adobe/uix-guest). Use this skill whenever the user mentions testing App Builder actions, writing unit tests for Runtime actions, creating integration tests, mocking Adobe SDKs, setting up test fixtures, running aio app test, or wants to verify action behavior before deployment. Also trigger when users mention Jest configuration for App Builder, test coverage, CI test setup, React component test, Testing Library, UI test, Provider wrapper, test my page, test my form, test my table, test my component, mock shell context, mock extension context, debug test failures, or fix Jest errors.

Generate React Spectrum UI components for Adobe Experience Cloud Shell SPAs and AEM UI Extensions. Provides patterns for pages, forms, data tables, dialogs, and navigation using @adobe/react-spectrum. Guides ExC Shell integration with @adobe/exc-app including runtime.done(), IMS token passthrough, and shell theming. Guides AEM UI Extension development with @adobe/uix-guest for Content Fragment Console, CF Editor, Universal Editor, and Assets View surfaces. Trigger on: building App Builder UI, React Spectrum components, ExC Shell pages, forms, data tables, dialogs, modals, navigation, theming, web-src, Spectrum design system, @adobe/exc-app, AEM extension, AEM UI extension, Content Fragment Console, Universal Editor extension, uix-guest, @adobe/uix-guest, extension points for AEM, customizing AEM surfaces.

Use when orienting, onboarding, or planning before a concrete task — the entry point for building a customized Workfront UI on Adobe App Builder. Reach for this whenever the user is: brand new to Workfront UI extensions and asking where to start or what the process looks like; describing a Workfront customization idea and asking how to build it; asking for the end-to-end roadmap (set up → scaffold → build → test → deploy → publish); or asking how the React/Spectrum SPA, the serverless Runtime actions, and the Workfront extension points fit together. This umbrella routes each stage to its skill: workfront-ui-extension (front-end SPA + extension points), workfront-actions (Runtime actions + Workfront Public API v21), workfront-local-testing (previewing a build inside Workfront); machine setup and aio app init live in appbuilder-project-init. Skip it and go straight to the matching sub-skill when the user already has one specific task.
