What problem does it solve?

Setting up a new Docker-based project from scratch with best practices (secure secrets, proper configuration, Git hooks, documentation) is complex and time-consuming. This skill automates the entire bootstrapping process, ensuring a production-ready foundation that adheres to GitLab Stack Management patterns.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Full Project Initialization: Creates the complete directory structure, docker-compose.yml, .env.example, and essential meta files, ready for development.
  • Automated Git Setup: Initializes Git, configures branch strategy, generates .gitignore, and installs pre-commit validation hooks to enforce quality from day one.
  • Integrated Validation: Leverages companion skills (stack-validator, secrets-manager, docker-validation, config-generator) to ensure the entire stack is compliant and secure from day one, preventing common pitfalls.
  • Use Case: You need to start a new web application project with Nginx, PostgreSQL, and Redis. Use this skill to generate the entire project structure, configure Git, set up all service configurations, and ensure all secrets are handled securely, all with automated validation.
