description: "Essential CloudBase (TCB, Tencent CloudBase, 云开发, 微信云开发) development guidelines. MUST read for CloudBase Web apps, mini programs, backend services, cloud functions, MySQL/NoSQL/PostgreSQL, auth, storage, CloudRun, or AI/LLM work. Do NOT use for non-Tencent-Cloud / non-CloudBase projects, pure frontend with no CloudBase backend, or self-hosted backends with no CloudBase dependency."

# CloudBase Development Guidelines
## Workflow
```
1. Exploration → Read the matching skill completely before writing any code.
Search with searchKnowledgeBase(mode="skill"), then Read full SKILL.md.
2. Implementation
├── 2a. Resource preparation → MCP tools first (auth, DB, storage, security rules)
└── 2b. Frontend implementation → Write code, install deps, start server, test
3. Close-out → Run cloudbase-code-review, fix errors, declare done
```
**Key constraints:** Stage 2a must precede frontend code. Stage 3 is mandatory.
## Activation Contract
Routing uses stable skill ids (`auth-tool`, `auth-web`, `http-api`, …) across source, generated artifacts, and installs.
### Standalone skill fallback
If only one published skill is exposed, start from the CloudBase main entry:
- CloudBase main entry: `https://cnb.cool/tencent/cloud/cloudbase/cloudbase-skills/-/git/raw/main/skills/cloudbase/SKILL.md`
- Sibling skill pattern: `https://cnb.cool/tencent/cloud/cloudbase/cloudbase-skills/-/git/raw/main/skills/cloudbase/references/<skill-id>/SKILL.md`
Replace `<skill-id>` with the published directory name. Follow relative `references/...` paths from the current skill. If MCP is unavailable, read `cloudbase` and follow `references/mcp-setup.md` / mcporter setup first.
### Global rules before action
- Identify the scenario, then read the matching skill before writing code or calling CloudBase APIs.
- Prefer semantic sources for toolkit maintenance; express runtime routing in stable skill ids.
- Use MCP or mcporter first for management tasks; inspect tool schemas before execution.
- UI tasks: read `ui-design` first and output the design spec before interface code.
- Auth tasks: read `auth-tool` first and enable providers before frontend implementation.
- Keep auth domains separate: management login uses `auth`; app-side auth uses `queryAppAuth` / `manageAppAuth`.
### Universal guardrails
- After 2–3 failed attempts on the same path, stop and reroute (platform skill, runtime, auth domain, permission model, SDK boundary).
- Always specify `EnvId` explicitly; do not rely on CLI-selected or implicit env state.
- When the environment identifier is an alias, nickname, or other short form, **do not pass it directly** to `auth.set_env`, SDK init, console URLs, or generated config. First resolve it to the canonical full `EnvId` with `envQuery(action=list, alias=..., aliasExact=true)`. If multiple environments match or no exact alias exists, stop and clarify with the user.
- When writing MCP/tool results to a file, pass serialized text (`JSON.stringify(result, null, 2)`), not raw objects. If a write tool says `content` expected a string but received an object, do not retry with the same raw object. Serialize the object first, then retry once with the serialized text, and make sure the retried call actually passes the serialized string rather than the original object.
- Keep scenario-specific pitfalls in child skills — do not expand this entry file.
- **First frontend deploy must use `manageApps(action="createApp", ...)`.** `manageHosting` is only for incremental updates of projects originally deployed via hosting.
### Engineering constitution (applies to every scenario)
These rules override convenience. Full rationale lives in `web-development`.
- **Prepare backend resources via MCP before writing frontend code.** Auth providers, tables, storage domains, and security rules first.
- **Do NOT use `any` to bypass type errors.** Prefer `unknown` + type guards / precise interfaces.
- **Self-verify before claiming done.** Static (`tsc` / lint / build / tests) and runtime (`agent-browser` for user-visible flows). Name gaps explicitly if a layer cannot run.
- **Do not paper over failures.** No empty `try/catch`, no deleting failing tests to go green.
- **`ai.createModel(...)` / `wx.cloud.extend.AI.createModel(provider)` takes a GroupName**, not a vendor/model id. Legal: `"cloudbase"`, `"hunyuan-exp"`, or `"custom-<name>"`. Model ids go in `generateText` / `streamText` `model` field. See `ai-model-web` / `ai-model-nodejs` / `ai-model-wechat`.
- **Low-capability STOP card:** For PostgreSQL / CloudBase PG / `app.rdb()` / `queryPgDatabase` / `managePgDatabase`, route to `postgresql-development` — do **not** use NoSQL/`manageMysqlDatabase` for that path. For Web auth guards, use `auth.getSession()` and require `data.session`; do **not** use deprecated `getLoginState()` / `auth.getUser()` as login proof.
### High-priority routing
<!-- DO NOT EDIT: auto-generated from references/activation-map.yaml -->
| Scenario | Read first | Then read | Do NOT route to first | Must check before action |
|----------|------------|-----------|------------------------|--------------------------|
| Web login / registration / auth UI | `auth-tool` | auth-web, web-development | cloud-functions, http-api | Provider status and publishable key |
| WeChat mini program + CloudBase | `miniprogram-development` | auth-wechat, no-sql-wx-mp-sdk | auth-web, web-development | Whether the project really uses CloudBase / `wx.cloud` |
| Native App / Flutter / React Native | `http-api` | auth-tool, relational-database-tool | auth-web, no-sql-web-sdk, web-development | SDK boundary, OpenAPI, auth method |
| Web projects + NoSQL Database | `web-development` | no-sql-web-sdk, auth-web | relational-database-tool, http-api | Login state and database access permission model |
| CloudBase PostgreSQL / PG | `postgresql-development` | auth-tool, auth-web, web-development, miniprogram-development, cloud-storage-web, http-api | relational-database-tool, no-sql-web-sdk | PG schema, usernamePassword login, backend/RLS permission model |
| MySQL Database (relational) | `relational-database-tool` | relational-database-web, http-api | no-sql-web-sdk, web-development | Distinguish MCP management vs app code access |
| Cloud Functions | `cloud-functions` | auth-tool, ai-model-nodejs | cloudrun-development, auth-web | Event vs HTTP function, runtime, `scf_bootstrap` |
| CloudRun backend | `cloudrun-development` | auth-tool, relational-database-tool | cloud-functions | Container boundary, Dockerfile, CORS |
| AI Agent (智能体开发) | `cloudbase-agent` | cloud-functions, cloudrun-development | cloud-functions, cloudrun-development | AG-UI protocol, scf_bootstrap, SSE streaming |
| AI model call (大模型调用 / 文本生成 / 图片生成 / 流式对话) | `ai-model-web` | ai-model-nodejs, ai-model-wechat | cloudbase-agent, cloud-functions, cloudrun-development | 先跑「调用前必须的资格检查」:`DescribeActivityInfo`(小程序成长计划) + `DescribeEnvPostpayPackage`(Token Credits 资源包) |
| UI generation | `ui-design` | web-development, miniprogram-development | cloud-functions | Design specification first |
| AI Model (Web) | `web-development` | ai-model-web, ui-design | ai-model-wechat, http-api | Platform and streaming interaction mode |
| Resource health inspection / troubleshooting | `ops-inspector` | cloud-functions, cloudrun-development | ui-design, spec-workflow | CLS enabled, time range for logs |
| Spec workflow / architecture design | `spec-workflow` | cloudbase | web-development, cloud-functions | Requirements, design, tasks confirmed |
### Routing reminders
- Web auth failures: usually skipped provider config, not missing frontend snippets.
- Native App failures: usually Web SDK paths, not missing HTTP API knowledge.
- Mini program failures: treating `wx.cloud` like Web auth/SDK.
- CloudBase PG failures: falling back to MySQL/NoSQL, skipping username-password readiness, or guessing raw HTTP instead of `app.rdb()` / documented OpenAPI.
- AI model failures: usually missing Token Credits / Growth Plan — run `DescribeEnvPostpayPackage` / `DescribeActivityInfo` before changing code.
## MCP prerequisite
CloudBase MCP is **required** for management/deploy. Setup details: `references/mcp-setup.md`. Verify with `npx mcporter list | grep cloudbase` or the IDE MCP panel before any CloudBase tool call. Prefer device-code login via `auth`; do not hard-code secrets.
