Description
Vite+ project instructions are currently created after running vp create or vp migrate. Before a project exists, coding agents may still default to npm create, npx, and direct package-manager commands.
Vite+ should have a global presence in supported coding agents so they know to use vp when creating projects and managing frontend workflows.
Suggested solution
-
Publish setup instructions at https://viteplus.dev/agent-setup/prompt.md.
-
Make the homepage and Getting Started CTA copy:
Fetch and execute the appropriate instructions to set me up for Vite+ from https://viteplus.dev/agent-setup/prompt.md
-
Have the fetched instructions:
- Keep an existing global
vp installation or install it with the official platform installer when missing.
- Verify it with
vp --version and vp help.
- Install an official Vite+ Agent Skill globally for the active agent, preferably through
vpx.
- Report the installed path and whether the agent must restart.
-
Add a global vite-plus skill that:
- Activates for new JavaScript, TypeScript, and web projects even when Vite+ is not explicitly mentioned.
- Prefers
vp create over npm create and npx create-*.
- Prefers
vp install, vp add, vp remove, vp update, vp run, and vpx over direct package-manager equivalents.
- Uses npm, pnpm, Yarn, or Bun directly only when explicitly requested or when
vp has no equivalent.
- Reads current Vite+ documentation or command help before selecting options.
Project-local agent instructions generated by vp create and vp migrate should remain unchanged and complement the global skill.
Acceptance criteria
- The website copies the short bootstrap prompt above.
- The Markdown endpoint is directly fetchable and is the canonical setup source.
- Setup works on macOS/Linux and Windows.
- Re-running setup is idempotent and preserves unrelated global agent configuration.
- Supported agents load the Vite+ skill after restarting.
- A request such as “create a new React project” results in a
vp create workflow instead of npm create.
- Global skill update and removal instructions are documented.
Additional context
Cloudflare's agent setup prompt demonstrates this remotely maintained bootstrap pattern.
This also revisits the earlier agent-skill discussions in #560 and #665. The project-local skill and MCP implementation removed in #1440 served a different purpose; this proposal is specifically about global, pre-project guidance.
