building-with-medusa

What problem does it solve?

This Skill provides comprehensive guidance on building robust Medusa backends, covering architectural patterns, type safety, and critical development rules that go beyond standard documentation.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Architectural Guidance: Enforces a strict Module → Workflow → API Route pattern for all backend operations.
• Type Safety: Ensures correct usage of Zod schemas, MedusaRequest types, and other TypeScript patterns.
• Business Logic Placement: Dictates where business logic should reside (workflows, not routes).
• Data Access Patterns: Guides on efficient and correct data querying, including critical rules for price handling.
• Use Case: When developing a new custom module for Medusa, implementing complex business logic in workflows, or building new API endpoints, this Skill ensures adherence to best practices and prevents common pitfalls.
