#+TITLE: SKILL: Project Foundry Agent (Universal Literate Note)
#+STARTUP: content
#+FILETAGS: :foundry:scaffolding:system:psf:

* Overview
The *Project Foundry Agent* is responsible for the physical instantiation of new projects. It automates directory creation, version control initialization, and GTD integration, ensuring every new project adheres to PSF mandates.

* Phase A: Demand (PRD)
:PROPERTIES:
:STATUS: FROZEN
:END:

** 1. Purpose
Define automated project instantiation behaviors for the PSF.

** 2. User Needs
- *Workspace Scaffolding:* Create standard `src/`, `tests/`, `docs/` layout and boilerplate files.
- *Version Control:* Initialize Git in new project directories.
- *GTD Integration:* Automatically append projects and initial tasks to `gtd.org`.
- *Safety:* Prevent overwriting existing projects and log all actions.

** 3. Success Criteria
*** TODO Structural Compliance
*** TODO GTD Linkage Verification
*** TODO Idempotency Check


* Phase B: Blueprint (PROTOCOL)

:STATUS: SIGNED

** 1. Architectural Intent
The Project Foundry Agent will be implemented as a command-line tool callable with a project name and optional parameters (e.g., programming language). It will leverage existing system tools (e.g., `mkdir`, `git`, `emacsclient`) to perform its tasks. Error handling and logging will be crucial.  It should be idempotent, meaning that re-running the agent on the same project should not cause errors or duplication.

** 2. Semantic Interfaces (Lisp Signatures)

*** `foundry-create-project`
    - Purpose:  Top-level function to create a new project.
    - Signature: `(foundry-create-project project-name &key language git gtd)`
    - Arguments:
      - `project-name`:  String, the name of the project (and base directory).
      - `language`: Keyword, the programming language paradigm of the project (e.g., `:python`, `:lisp`, `:javascript`). Influences boilerplate content. Defaults to `:generic`.
      - `git`: Boolean, whether to initialize a Git repository (default: `t`).
      - `gtd`: Boolean, whether to add the project to the GTD system (default: `t`).
    - Returns:  Symbol, `:success` if the project was created successfully, `:failure` otherwise.
    - Side Effects: Creates directories, files, a git repo (optionally), and modifies the GTD system (optionally).

*** `foundry-create-directories`
    - Purpose: Creates the standard project directory structure.
    - Signature: `(foundry-create-directories project-path)`
    - Arguments:
      - `project-path`: String, the absolute path to the project directory.
    - Returns: Boolean, `t` if successful, `nil` otherwise.
    - Side Effects: Creates `src`, `tests`, and `docs` directories.

*** `foundry-create-boilerplate-files`
    - Purpose: Creates boilerplate files based on the project language.
    - Signature: `(foundry-create-boilerplate-files project-path language)`
    - Arguments:
      - `project-path`: String, the absolute path to the project directory.
      - `language`: Keyword, the programming language of the project.
    - Returns:  Boolean, `t` if successful, `nil` otherwise.
    - Side Effects: Creates initial files (e.g., `README.md`, `main.py`, `index.html`).

*** `foundry-initialize-git`
    - Purpose: Initializes a Git repository in the project directory.
    - Signature: `(foundry-initialize-git project-path)`
    - Arguments:
      - `project-path`: String, the absolute path to the project directory.
    - Returns: Boolean, `t` if successful, `nil` otherwise.
    - Side Effects: Executes `git init` in the project directory.

*** `foundry-add-to-gtd`
    - Purpose: Adds the project and initial tasks to the GTD system.
    - Signature: `(foundry-add-to-gtd project-name)`
    - Arguments:
      - `project-name`: String, the name of the project.
    - Returns: Boolean, `t` if successful, `nil` otherwise.
    - Side Effects: Appends to `gtd.org` using `emacsclient`.
