Scaffold a new Domino-ready web application (Vite + React, Streamlit, Dash, Flask, Gradio or FastAPI) with the settings Domino's reverse proxy needs, the mandatory 0.0.0.0:8888 binding, DOMINO_RUN_HOST_PATH prefixes, server-side model endpoint calls, and an app.sh entry point. Use when the user wants to start, initialize, create or scaffold a new app to publish on Domino, or asks for a starter app.sh or starter app for a web framework on Domino.

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

# Initialize a Domino App

Applies to Domino 6.3 and Domino Cloud.

Create a web application that works behind Domino's reverse proxy on the first publish.

## Inputs

Collect these before writing files. Skip any the user has already given.

1. **Framework**: `vite-react` (default), `streamlit`, `dash`, `flask`, `gradio` or `fastapi`.
2. **Project name**: app folder name and `package.json` name (React only).
3. **Model endpoint integration**: whether the app calls a Domino endpoint. If yes, the call goes through backend code and the user sets `MODEL_API_URL` and `MODEL_API_TOKEN` as Domino Project variables, never in the repository. The URL comes from the user; the token is the user's or one you create and store ([domino-apps/FRAMEWORKS.md](../domino-apps/FRAMEWORKS.md#calling-a-model-endpoint-from-any-framework)).

If the target directory already contains an app, stop and ask before overwriting anything.

## Steps

1. Copy the matching template from this skill's `assets/` folder into the project:

   | Framework | Files to copy |
   |---|---|
…

Read the whole file at its exact version.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add dominodatalab/domino-ai-plugin/domino-app-init@sha256:ef5ffb509c875c77

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261019.6bdb2b8, 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.
