What its author says it does
Copied from the file, not written here
Creates and maintains a plugin's global templates directory so the scaffolders produce consistent components. Use when adding a template, updating an existing one, or keeping templates in sync with the component shapes they scaffold.

Purpose
Curate the global templates/ directory the askit-build-* and askit-init-* skills consume, so generated components are consistent by construction (Standard sec 10.5). create adds a new template for a component type or artifact; maintain keeps an existing template in sync with the shape it scaffolds (a template that drifts from the current component contract produces non-conformant scaffolds). The inventory and the sync rule are in references/templates-inventory.md.
When to use
When adding a template, updating an existing one, or keeping the templates in sync with the component shapes they scaffold.
create mode
- Identify the component type or artifact lacking a template and the skill that will consume it.
- Author the template as a minimal, conformant skeleton with
REPLACE-placeholders for the parts the scaffolder fills. - Verify a scaffold built from it passes the relevant checks (a template MUST produce a conformant component).
maintain mode
- When a component contract changes (a new required frontmatter key, a renamed field), update every template that scaffolds that type so the next scaffold is conformant.
- Keep templates minimal: a skeleton, not a full example (samples live with their skill via
askit-build-samples).
Scope
Templates are the single source of scaffold shape: one place to fix, so a contract change does not have to be chased across every builder. The discipline is that a template stays conformant - the seed-plugin/ template, for instance, is asserted to pass the Bronze anatomy (tests/unit/init-anatomy.test.mjs). Templates hold skeletons; the eval-set and sample CONTENT a skill ships is authored by askit-build-samples.
