Capabilities
Everything You Need
From discovery to execution — a complete system for sharing and running proven development workflows.
Skill Registry
A curated JSON index of validated, reusable workflows. Each skill is schema-validated and version-tracked.
CLI Installer
One command to install any skill. Local manifests track what's installed, keeping your project clean.
Guided Workflows
Multi-step prompts with context references. The CLI guides you through each Bob IDE interaction step by step.
Schema Validation
JSON Schema draft-07 validation ensures every skill is complete, consistent, and error-free before execution.
MCP Server
A 4-tool Model Context Protocol server lets Bob IDE query the registry, validate skills, and format prompts directly.
Bob IDE Native
Custom modes, slash commands, skills, and rules in .bob/ — designed from the ground up for IBM Bob IDE.
Workflow
How It Works
Four steps from discovery to production-ready code. The CLI handles the orchestration — Bob handles the generation.
Discover
Browse available skills in the curated registry. Each skill is validated and documented.
$ bob-skill listInstall
One command installs the skill locally with a tracked manifest. No global pollution.
$ bob-skill install api-test-generatorRun
Interactive prompts collect parameters, then guide you step-by-step through Bob IDE workflows.
$ bob-skill run api-test-generatorComplete
Bob generates production-ready code following the skill's proven multi-step pattern.

Competitive Landscape
Yeoman / Plop.js
✓ Established ecosystem
✗ Template-only, no AI, no multi-step flows
GitHub Copilot
✓ Powerful AI autocomplete
✗ No reusable workflows, no packaging or sharing
Custom Scripts
✓ Tailored to team needs
✗ Not portable, no validation, breaks across projects
Our USP
AI-native (Bob-driven), multi-step guided workflows, schema-validated registry, zero-config sharing across teams.
