cloudbase
Essential CloudBase (TCB, Tencent CloudBase, 云开发, 微信云开发) development guidelines. MUST read for CloudBase Web apps, mini programs, backend services, cloud functions, MySQL/NoSQL/PostgreSQL, auth, storage, CloudRun, or AI/LLM work. Do NOT use for non-Tencent-Cloud / non-CloudBase projects, pure frontend with no CloudBase backend, or self-hosted backends with no CloudBase dependency.
npx skills add TencentCloudBase/CloudBase-AI-Toolkit --skill cloudbase-guidelines --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.
# CloudBase Development Guidelines ## Workflow ``` 1. Exploration → Read the matching skill completely before writing any code. Search with searchKnowledgeBase(mode="skill"), then Read full SKILL.md. 2. Implementation ├── 2a. Resource preparation → MCP tools first (auth, DB, storage, security rules) └── 2b. Frontend implementation → Write code, install deps, start server, test 3. Close-out → Run cloudbase-code-review, fix errors, declare done ``` **Key constraints:** Stage 2a must precede frontend code. Stage 3 is mandatory. ## Activation Contract Routing uses stable skill ids (`auth-tool-cloudbase`, `auth-web-cloudbase`, `http-api-cloudbase`, …) across source, generated artifacts, and installs. ### Standalone skill fallback If only one published skill is exposed: - Prefer local relative paths (`references/<skill-id>/SKILL.md` or sibling skill directories) when those files exist in the workspace. - Do **not** fetch sibling skill markdown from remote raw URLs into the agent context. - If a required sibling skill is missing locally, ask the user to install the full CloudBase skills pack or IDE plugin (`npx skills add tencentcloudbase/cloudbase-skills`), then continue using local file

What does the cloudbase skill do?
Essential CloudBase (TCB, Tencent CloudBase, 云开发, 微信云开发) development guidelines. MUST read for CloudBase Web apps, mini programs, backend services, cloud functions, MySQL/NoSQL/PostgreSQL, auth, storage, CloudRun, or AI/LLM work. Do NOT use for non-Tencent-Cloud / non-CloudBase projects, pure frontend with no CloudBase backend, or self-hosted backends with no CloudBase dependency.
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add TencentCloudBase/CloudBase-AI-Toolkit --skill cloudbase-guidelines --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 TencentCloudBase/CloudBase-AI-Toolkit, a repository with 1,066 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.
