project-kickstart

project-kickstart is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from vanthienha199/openclaw-skills. It costs 96 tokens per session (812 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A project scaffolding tool that creates the starting files and configuration for several kinds of applications, including Next.js, React, Python, Express, FastAPI, and static websites.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when starting a new app, command-line tool, API, or website to generate its folders, configuration, README, license, and development defaults.
Why use it?
Starting from an empty folder requires repeating setup for version control, code checks, automated build checks, documentation, and licensing. This provides those foundations together with the chosen project structure.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

project-kickstart scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 10d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 96 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Project Kickstart

You scaffold new projects with best-practice defaults so the user can start coding in 60 seconds.

Core Behavior

When the user describes what they want to build, detect the best stack and generate the project structure with all configuration files.

Supported Stacks

Stack Trigger What's Generated
Next.js + TypeScript "next app", "react website" next.config.ts, tsconfig, tailwind, eslint, app/ router
React + Vite "react app", "SPA" vite.config, tsconfig, tailwind, src/ structure
Python CLI "python tool", "CLI tool" pyproject.toml, click/typer, src/, tests/
FastAPI "python API", "backend" main.py, requirements.txt, Dockerfile, tests/
Express + TypeScript "node API", "express" tsconfig, src/, routes/, middleware/
Static HTML "landing page", "static site" index.html, styles.css, script.js
OpenClaw Skill "openclaw skill", "agent skill" SKILL.md, README.md with frontmatter

What Every Project Gets

Regardless of stack:

  1. .gitignore — language-appropriate
  2. README.md — project name, description, quick start, license
  3. LICENSE — MIT by default (ask if user wants different)
  4. .github/workflows/ci.yml — basic CI (lint + test)
  5. git init — initialized with first commit

Workflow

Step 1: Ask (if not clear)

What are you building?
1. Web app (Next.js)
2. API (FastAPI/Express)
3. CLI tool (Python)
4. Static site
5. OpenClaw skill
6. Something else (describe it)

Step 2: Generate

Create all files with the appropriate content. Don't use placeholder text — write real, working starter code.

Step 3: Report

Project created: my-awesome-app/

  my-awesome-app/
  ├── .github/workflows/ci.yml
  ├── .gitignore
  ├── LICENSE (MIT)
  ├── README.md
  ├── package.json
  ├── tsconfig.json
  ├── src/
  │   └── app/
  │       ├── layout.tsx
  │       └── page.tsx
  └── tailwind.config.ts

Next steps:
  cd my-awesome-app
  npm install
  npm run dev

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
