Add Module Skill

Usage

/add-module <ModuleName>

Note: Modules are core infrastructure (always-on). For toggleable functionality, use

/add-feature

Step 1: Ask Questions

1. Module Purpose

What infrastructure does this module provide?
Brief description:

2. Data Source

Where does the module get its data?

A) Game runtime - Hooks into game code
B) Network - Captures WebSocket/HTTP
C) Assets - Game assets (sprites, audio, etc.)
D) Computed - Derives from other modules
E) Other: ___

3. Dependencies

Which existing modules does it depend on?

[ ] MGData      [ ] MGSprite    [ ] MGTile
[ ] MGPixi      [ ] MGAudio     [ ] MGCosmetic
[ ] MGVersion   [ ] MGAssets    [ ] MGManifest
[ ] MGEnvironment  [ ] MGCalculators  [ ] None

4. State Type

Does it need runtime state?

A) Yes - Caches data in memory (needs state.ts)
B) No - Stateless utilities only

5. Public API Methods

What methods should the module expose?
(Besides required init/isReady)

Examples:
- get(key) - Get data by key
- calculate(params) - Perform calculation
- render(target) - Render something

Step 2: Create Structure

src/modules/<moduleName>/
├── index.ts        # Public façade (MG<ModuleName>)
├── types.ts        # Type definitions
├── state.ts        # Runtime state (if needed)
└── logic/
    └── core.ts     # Business logic

No

logic/index.ts

Step 3: File Templates

types.ts

/**
 * <ModuleName> Module Types
 */

// ─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
// Types
// ─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────

export interface <ModuleName>Data {
    // Define data structures
}

// ─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
// Constants
// ─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────

export const <MODULE_NAME>_CONSTANTS = {
    // Define constants
} as const;

state.ts (if needed)

/**
 * <ModuleName> Module State
 *
 * Runtime cache/state management.
 */

import type { <ModuleName>Data } from './types';

// ─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
// State
// ─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────

let cache: <ModuleName>Data | null = null;
let ready = false;

// ─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
// Accessors
// ─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────

export function getCache(): <ModuleName>Data | null {
    return cache;
}

export function setCache(data: <ModuleName>Data): void {
    cache = data;
    ready = true;
}

export function isReady(): boolean {
    return ready;
}

export function reset(): void {
    cache = null;
    ready = false;
}

logic/core.ts

/**
 * <ModuleName> Core Logic
 */

import { setCache, getCache } from '../state';
import type { <ModuleName>Data } from '../types';

// ─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
// Initialization
// ─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────

export async function initialize(): Promise<void> {
    // Initialization logic
    // Capture data, setup hooks, etc.

    const data: <ModuleName>Data = {
        // ...
    };

    setCache(data);
}

// ─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
// Public Methods
// ─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────

export function getData(): <ModuleName>Data | null {
    return getCache();
}

index.ts

/**
 * <ModuleName> Module
 *
 * <Brief description>
 *
 * @example
 * ```typescript
 * await MG<ModuleName>.init();
 * const data = MG<ModuleName>.get();
 * ```
 */

import { initialize, getData } from './logic/core';
import { isReady as checkReady } from './state';

// ─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
// State
// ─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────

let initialized = false;

// ─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
// Public API
// ─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────

/**
 * Initialize the module
 * Idempotent - safe to call multiple times
 */
async function init(): Promise<void> {
    if (initialized) return;
    initialized = true;

    await initialize();
    console.log('[<ModuleName>] Initialized');
}

/**
 * Check if module is ready
 */
function isReady(): boolean {
    return checkReady();
}

/**
 * Get module data
 */
function get() {
    return getData();
}

// ─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
// Export
// ─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────

export const MG<ModuleName> = {
    // Required (standard API)
    init,
    isReady,

    // Module-specific
    get,
    // Add other public methods
};

export type { <ModuleName>Data } from './types';

Step 4: Register

Export →

src/modules/index.ts

export { MG<ModuleName> } from './<moduleName>';
export type { <ModuleName>Data } from './<moduleName>';

API →

src/api/index.ts

import { MG<ModuleName> } from '../modules/<moduleName>';

Modules: {
    // ... existing
    <ModuleName>: MG<ModuleName>,
}

Bootstrap →

src/ui/loader/bootstrap.ts

import { MG<ModuleName> } from '../../modules/<moduleName>';

// In initModules():
await MG<ModuleName>.init();

Step 5: Validate

Structure

• index.ts

  exports

  MG<ModuleName>

• types.ts

  defines types/constants

• state.ts

  exists (if stateful)

• logic/

  folder for business logic
• No

  logic/index.ts

  barrel file

API

• init()

  - Required, idempotent

• isReady()

  - Required, returns boolean
• Other methods are module-specific

Rules

• No toggles (modules are always-on)
• No UI rendering (DOM in src/ui/ only)
• No direct WS sends (use websocket/api.ts)
• No side effects on import

Registration

• Exported from

  src/modules/index.ts

• Exposed in

  src/api/index.ts

• Initialized in bootstrap
