Skills

Copy the dependency rule and one layout into a project, then add Flutter UI, Serverpod generate, or the Talaria bootstrap.

clean-architectureskills

The book states the dependency rule. The Serverpod and Flutter courses build it three times. This page is how those rules move onto a new project.

Copy two rule files into the project's .cursor/rules/, then add the extras that match the stack. The files live in this repository under skills/.

Pick one layout

Copy dependency-rule.mdc and exactly one layout file. A second layout rule contradicts the first.

Layout	Rule	When
Layer-first	`layer-first.mdc`	The feature name repeats inside each layer, including the screen or the endpoint
Feature-first	`feature-first.mdc`	One folder holds every layer of a feature
Hybrid	`hybrid.mdc`	Domain and application stay shared. Screens or endpoints are sliced by feature

dependency-rule.mdc is the same in every layout. Inner code never imports outer code. The composition root is the only place that constructs a repository implementation.

From the root of the new project, with the layout you chose in LAYOUT (layer-first, feature-first, or hybrid):

bash

LAYOUT=hybrid
base=https://raw.githubusercontent.com/newtalaria/clean-architecture/main/skills
mkdir -p .cursor/rules
curl -fsSL "$base/rules/dependency-rule.mdc" -o .cursor/rules/dependency-rule.mdc
curl -fsSL "$base/rules/${LAYOUT}.mdc" -o ".cursor/rules/${LAYOUT}.mdc"

If this repository is already on disk, cp those two files into .cursor/rules/ instead of using curl.

Flutter UI

Copy flutter-ui.mdc when the app has a ui/ folder. Widgets there do not import Riverpod. A tile takes the values it draws. A page test uses ProviderScope. A tile test does not.

bash

base=https://raw.githubusercontent.com/newtalaria/clean-architecture/main/skills
curl -fsSL "$base/rules/flutter-ui.mdc" -o .cursor/rules/flutter-ui.mdc

Layer-first and feature-first Flutter apps keep the tile beside the page. Copy this rule when you add a shared ui/ folder, which is the hybrid layout.

Serverpod generate and migrate

Copy serverpod-generate-migrate into .cursor/skills/ when the project has .spy.yaml or .spy.yml files. The skill runs serverpod generate, and serverpod create-migration when a database model changed. Generated Dart is not hand-edited. The notes samples in examples/serverpod/ hand-write wire types so dart test needs no generator. Leave those packages without a generate step.

bash

base=https://raw.githubusercontent.com/newtalaria/clean-architecture/main/skills
mkdir -p .cursor/skills/serverpod-generate-migrate
curl -fsSL "$base/serverpod-generate-migrate/SKILL.md" \
  -o .cursor/skills/serverpod-generate-migrate/SKILL.md

Talaria on Flutter

Copy talaria-flutter-bootstrap into .cursor/skills/ when the Flutter app should report errors, screens, and HTTP. An empty TALARIA_API_KEY leaves the SDK off. Binding init and runApp share one zone. The Beamer location reports the screen. TalariaScreenCapture wraps the routed child.

bash

base=https://raw.githubusercontent.com/newtalaria/clean-architecture/main/skills
mkdir -p .cursor/skills/talaria-flutter-bootstrap
curl -fsSL "$base/talaria-flutter-bootstrap/SKILL.md" \
  -o .cursor/skills/talaria-flutter-bootstrap/SKILL.md

The worked example is examples/flutter/hybrid/lib/bootstrap/talaria_monitoring.dart.
