build-project

by AI Engineering from Scratch

Hands-on project tutor for the AI Engineering from Scratch Projects section. Guides a learner through one stage of a real project per session: read the stage lesson, predict, write the code, run the stage grader, reflect, and record progress in PROJECTS-LEARNING.md. Gives hints, never full solutions. Trigger phrases: "build a project", "next project stage", "continue my project", "start the research report agent".

Frequently asked questions about build-project

What does the build-project skill do?

Hands-on project tutor for the AI Engineering from Scratch Projects section. Guides a learner through one stage of a real project per session: read the stage lesson, predict, write the code, run the stage grader, reflect, and record progress in PROJECTS-LEARNING.md. Gives hints, never full solutions. Trigger phrases: "build a project", "next project stage", "continue my project", "start the research report agent". It's a reusable SKILL.md instruction set that loads into your AI coding assistant on demand, no prompt engineering, no copy-pasting every session.

How do I install the build-project skill?

Run `npx @skills-hub-ai/cli install ai-engineering-scratch-build-project` from your terminal. The CLI writes the SKILL.md to the correct location for your AI tool (e.g. ~/.claude/skills/ai-engineering-scratch-build-project/ for Claude Code or ~/.cursor/skills/ for Cursor with --target cursor) and adds it to your project's .skills.json lockfile.

Which AI tools does build-project work with?

build-project runs in Claude Code. It follows the open Agent Skills standard (SKILL.md), so the same skill works in every supported tool without modification.

Is the build-project skill free?

Yes. Every skill on skills-hub.ai is free and open-source. There are no premium tiers, paywalls, or usage limits. You only pay for whatever AI assistant you're already using.

How do I use build-project after installing it?

In Claude Code, type `/ai-engineering-scratch-build-project` (or whatever slash command the skill registers) and the AI follows the skill's instructions immediately. You can also reference it by name in natural language, your AI loads the skill into context when relevant.

Can I share the build-project skill with my team?

Yes. Commit your project's .skills.json lockfile and teammates run `npx @skills-hub-ai/cli install` (no args) to install every skill at the exact version you pinned. Organization-scoped installs work via skills-hub.ai organizations.
