SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Coordinating tasks across language-diverse subprojects in a single repository requires an orchestration layer that preserves subproject autonomy. This skill provides a root justfile that delegates to each subproject's full aug-just interface while enabling a lightweight central workflow.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Root orchestration: A minimal root justfile that coordinates tasks across api and web subprojects.
  • Autonomous subprojects: Each subproject maintains its own full aug-just interface and configuration.
  • Monorepo polyglot workflows: Ideal for projects combining Python backend and JavaScript frontend.

Quick Start

Create a root project directory structured as in the guide, place a root justfile that delegates to api/ and web/, and ensure api/ and web/ contain their own justfiles. Then run just at the root to execute cross-subproject tasks (e.g., just check-all).

FAQPage Schema
How do I coordinate tasks across a Python backend and JavaScript frontend in a monorepo?▼

Coordinate a polyglot monorepo by placing a root justfile that delegates commands to subproject justfiles, enabling unified task execution across language-diverse stacks while preserving each subproject's autonomy.

What's the best way to run cross-project checks in a multi-language repository?▼

Run cross-project checks in a multi-language repository by executing a central justfile recipe like `just check-all`, which orchestrates the individual check tasks defined in the separate subproject justfiles.

How does root justfile orchestration work for polyglot projects?▼

Root justfile orchestration works by implementing a minimal command subset at the repository root that delegates to full aug-just interfaces in subprojects, allowing a lightweight central workflow to trigger localized tasks.

Do I need a justfile in every subproject to use a polyglot monorepo orchestration setup?▼

Yes, this orchestration setup requires each subproject to contain its own full justfile interface and configuration, because the root justfile relies on these localized definitions to execute tasks correctly.

Can I use this monorepo task orchestration for subprojects beyond api and web directories?▼

The skill is designed specifically for monorepos structured with api and web subprojects, coordinating tasks between these distinct language stacks through a minimal root justfile orchestration layer.

When should I avoid using a single root justfile for multi-language task orchestration?▼

Avoid a single root justfile if your subprojects do not maintain their own aug-just interfaces, as the root orchestration layer depends on delegating to these autonomous subproject configurations to function properly.
