Sugar

This skill provides automated assistance for sugar tasks.

Overview

This skill empowers Claude to orchestrate and monitor autonomous development processes within the Sugar environment. It provides a set of commands to create, manage, and execute tasks, ensuring efficient and automated software development workflows.

How It Works

1. Command Recognition: Claude identifies the appropriate Sugar command (e.g., /sugar-task, /sugar-status, /sugar-review, /sugar-run).
2. Parameter Extraction: Claude extracts relevant parameters from the user's request, such as task type, priority, and execution flags.
3. Execution: Claude executes the corresponding Sugar command with the extracted parameters, interacting with the Sugar plugin.
4. Response Generation: Claude presents the results of the command execution to the user in a clear and informative manner.

When to Use This Skill

This skill activates when you need to:

• Create a new development task with specific requirements.
• Check the current status of the Sugar system and task queue.
• Review and manage pending tasks in the queue.
• Start or manage the autonomous execution mode.

Examples

Example 1: Creating a New Feature Task

User request: "/sugar-task Implement user authentication --type feature --priority 4"

The skill will:

1. Parse the request and identify the command as /sugar-task with parameters "Implement user authentication", --type feature, and --priority 4.
2. Execute the sugar command to create a new task with the specified parameters.
3. Confirm the successful creation of the task to the user.

Example 2: Checking System Status

User request: "/sugar-status"

The skill will:

1. Identify the command as /sugar-status.
2. Execute the sugar command to retrieve the system status.
3. Display the system status, including task queue information, to the user.

Best Practices

• Clarity: Always confirm the parameters before executing a command to ensure accuracy.
• Safety: When using /sugar-run, strongly advise the user to use --dry-run --once first.
• Validation: Recommend validating the Sugar configuration before starting autonomous mode.

Integration

This skill integrates directly with the Sugar plugin, leveraging its command-line interface to manage autonomous development workflows. It can be combined with other skills to provide a more comprehensive development experience.
