ash-framework
Ash Framework — resources, actions, policies, aggregates, calculations, AshPhoenix.Form, LiveView, migrations. Use when generating resources via mix ash.codegen, editing changes, checks, types, validations, or domain code interfaces.
npx skills add oliver-kriska/claude-elixir-phoenix --skill ash-framework --agent claude-code
Same command for any agent — swap --agent for codex, cursor, copilot.
Weekly change comes from our own snapshots, not the repository page — it measures attention, not adoption.
# Ash Framework Reference Reference for Ash Framework in Phoenix/LiveView projects. Ash complements Phoenix/Ecto — LiveView, security, and OTP Iron Laws still apply. Only data access patterns shift toward Ash actions and domain code interfaces. ## Iron Laws 1. **USE DOMAIN CODE INTERFACES** — Never call `Ash.create/Ash.read` directly in LiveViews or Controllers; use domain code interfaces: `MyApp.Accounts.register_user()` not `Ash.create(User, attrs)` 2. **SET ACTOR/SCOPE AT QUERY PREP, NOT EXECUTION** — Pass `actor:` or `scope:` to `for_read/for_create/for_action` (prep), NOT to `Ash.read!/Ash.create!` (execution); execution-level actor bypasses row-level policy evaluation. If project uses `Ash.Scope`, pass `scope:` consistently instead of bare `actor:` — do not mix styles 3. **GENERATORS FIRST** — Before writing Ash code manually, run `mix ash.gen.resource` or `mix ash.gen.domain` with `--yes`; check `mix help ash.gen.<task>` for options 4. **CODEGEN AFTER RESOURCE CHANGES** — Always run `mix ash.codegen` after modifying resources; this generates migrations from resource snapshots — never write AshPostgres migrations by hand 5. **ACTIONS OVER FUNCTIONS** — Put business logic in n

What does the ash-framework skill do?
Ash Framework — resources, actions, policies, aggregates, calculations, AshPhoenix.Form, LiveView, migrations. Use when generating resources via mix ash.codegen, editing changes, checks, types, validations, or domain code interfaces.
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add oliver-kriska/claude-elixir-phoenix --skill ash-framework --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From oliver-kriska/claude-elixir-phoenix, a repository with 515 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
