Comprehensive setup steps to help the user create complete project structures in a VS Code workspace; this tool is designed for full project initialization and scaffolding, not for creating individual files. When to use this tool: user wants to create a new complete project from scratch; setting up entire project frameworks (TypeScript projects, React apps, Node.js servers, etc.); initializing Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers with full structure; creating VS Code extensions with proper scaffolding; setting up Next.js, Vite, or other framework-based projects; user asks for "new project", "create a workspace", "set up a [framework] project"; need to establish a complete development environment with dependencies, config files, and folder structure. When NOT to use this tool: creating single files or small code snippets; adding individual files to existing projects; making modifications to existing codebases; user asks to "create a file" or "add a component"; simple code examples or demonstrations; debugging or fixing existing code. This tool provides complete project setup including: folder structure creation; package.json and dependency management; configuration files (tsconfig, eslint, etc.); initial boilerplate code; development environment setup; build and run instructions. Use other file creation tools for individual files within existing projects.
This skill does not declare a tool allowlist. The agent host applies whatever default tools are available at runtime.
