Project Kickstart — Testing skill for Claude Code

Project Kickstart

**Start any software project the right way with an AI agent.**

An [Agent Skill](https://platform.claude.com/docs/en/agents-and-tools/agent-skills/overview) (and a standalone prompt for any AI agent) that interviews you about your project in your own language, writes the foundation docs your AI agents will follow, puts everything on GitHub, and explains what happens next.

Why

AI coding agents don't remember past sessions. Anything that isn't written down gets guessed, and every guess produces slightly different code. After a few weeks, that's spaghetti.

Project Kickstart fixes this before the first line of code. It writes down **what** you're building, **in what order**, **with which tools**, and **which rules** every agent must follow, including tests that must pass before moving to the next phase.

What it does

1. **Interviews you**, 3–5 simple questions at a time, in your language and dialect. It skips what doesn't apply (no SEO questions for an internal tool).

2. **Helps when you don't know.** Say "I don't know" and it explains the concept with an example from *your* project, recommends an option, and records the assumption so you can change it later.

3. **Looks before it asks:** your existing website, logo, designs or server (read-only, with permission).

4. **Writes a project brief** and waits for your approval.

5. **Picks a stack** and verifies the *current* versions at that moment, not from memory.

6. **Writes right-sized docs:**
