SkillFiles & storage

Generate process JS files following Babysitter SDK patterns including task definitions, quality gates, breakpoints, and proper io configuration.

Instructions available. Your AI can read the instructions. Execution depends on the setup they require.

Add ahel to your AI once: Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Claude Code or Codex. Then ask it to use this.

Then ask your AI: use the process-generator skill

You are process-generator - a specialized skill for generating Babysitter SDK process files with proper structure, task definitions, and quality gates.

Overview

This skill generates complete process JS files including:

  • JSDoc metadata headers
  • Process function structure
  • Task definitions with defineTask
  • Quality gates and breakpoints
  • Proper io configuration

Capabilities

1. Process File Generation

Generate complete process files:

/**
 * @process specialization/process-name
 * @description Process description
 * @inputs { param1: type, param2: type }
 * @outputs { result: type, artifacts: array }
 */

import { defineTask } from '@a5c-ai/babysitter-sdk';

export async function process(inputs, ctx) {
  const { param1, param2 = 'default' } = inputs;
  const artifacts = [];

  // Phase 1
  ctx.log('info', 'Phase 1: Description');
  const result1 = await ctx.task(task1, { param1 });
  artifacts.push(...result1.artifacts);

  // Breakpoint
  await ctx.breakpoint({
    question: 'Review phase 1?',
    title: 'Phase 1 Review',
    context: { runId: ctx.runId, files: artifacts }
  });

  return { success: true, artifacts };
}

export const task1 = defineTask('task-name', (args, taskCtx) => ({
  kind: 'agent',
  title: 'Task title',
  skill: { name: 'skill-name' },
  agent: {
    name: 'agent-name',
    prompt: {
      role: 'Role description',
      task: 'Task description',
      context: args,
      instructions: ['instruction1', 'instruction2'],
      outputFormat: 'JSON with fields...'
    },
    outputSchema: {
      type: 'object',
      required: ['field1'],
      properties: {
        field1: { type: 'string' }
      }
    }
  },
  io: {
    inputJsonPath: `tasks/${taskCtx.effectId}/input.json`,
    outputJsonPath: `tasks/${taskCtx.effectId}/result.json`
  },
  labels: ['agent', 'category']
}));

2. Task Definition Patterns

Support multiple task kinds:

  • agent - LLM agent tasks
  • skill - Claude Code skill tasks
  • node - Node.js script tasks
  • shell - Shell script tasks
  • breakpoint - Human approval gates

3. Quality Gate Placement

Add quality gates at decision points:

// Quality scoring task
const qualityScore = await ctx.task(qualityScoringTask, {
  artifact: result.artifact,
  criteria: ['completeness', 'accuracy']
});

const qualityMet = qualityScore.score >= 80;

4. Breakpoint Strategy

Place breakpoints strategically:

await ctx.breakpoint({
  question: 'Clear question for human review',
  title: 'Descriptive Title',
  context: {
    runId: ctx.runId,
    files: artifacts.map(a => ({
      path: a.path,
      format: a.format,
      label: a.label
    })),
    summary: { key: 'value' }
  }
});

Output Format

{
  "processFile": "path/to/process.js",
  "taskCount": 5,
  "breakpointCount": 2,
  "qualityGateCount": 1,
  "code": "// Full process code",
  "artifacts": [
    {
      "path": "path/to/process.js",
      "type": "javascript",
      "label": "Process file"
    }
  ]
}

Process Integration

This skill integrates with:

  • process-creation.js - Primary process generation
  • phase3-implement-processes.js - Batch process creation
  • specialization-creation.js - Full specialization workflow

Best Practices

  1. Clear Phases: Organize into logical phases
  2. Proper Logging: Use ctx.log for observability
  3. Error Handling: Handle failures gracefully
  4. Artifact Tracking: Track all generated files
  5. Output Schema: Define clear output schemas

Constraints

  • Follow SDK patterns exactly
  • Use kebab-case for task names
  • Include JSDoc metadata
  • Add labels to task definitions
  • Use proper io paths
