Scaffolds a TypeScript CLI and npm package with the house toolchain, dual tsdown outputs, CLI contracts, changesets, and publishing templates. Use when asked to "scaffold a CLI" or "start an npm package".
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Scaffold CLI - **IS:** bootstrapping a brand-new TypeScript CLI or npm package (Node 24, TypeScript 7) from the pinned templates in `references/`, through to a green first CI run and a package npm can publish over OIDC. - **IS NOT:** a Next.js web app (use `scaffold-nextjs`), folder structure or module contracts for an existing codebase (use `codebase-architecture`), auditing an existing CLI's ergonomics (use `dx-audit`), or shipping a release of an existing package (use `autoship`). The templates encode the house toolchain. Substitute project values and verify template APIs against installed package versions; repair proven incompatibilities instead of blindly reproducing them. The toolchain is the opinion: tsdown not tsup, vitest not jest, oxlint and oxfmt via ultracite not eslint or prettier, `node:util` `styleText` not chalk, `@clack/prompts` not ora. Swapping any of them or restructuring the layout produces a repo the templates' notes no longer describe. ## Reference Files | File | Read When | |------|-----------| | `references/scaffold-configs.md` | Step 3: package.json, tsconfig, tsdown, gitignore, license, changeset config, GitHub Actions | …

How to install
mdr add mblode/agent-skills/scaffold-cli@sha256:98d7fad936fa8910The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261003.4a29604, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
