Skill instructions
Paperclip Dev This skill covers the day-to-day workflows for developing and operating a local Paperclip instance. It assumes you are working inside the Paperclip repo checkout with origin pointing to git@github.com:paperclipai/paperclip.git. OPEN SOURCE HYGIENE: This repository is public-facing. Treat anything you push to origin as publishable. Never commit or push secrets, API keys, tokens, private logs, PII, customer data, or machine-local configuration that should stay private. Keep git history tidy as well: avoid pushing throwaway branches, noisy checkpoint commits, or speculative work that does not need to be shared upstream. MANDATORY: Before running any CLI command, building, testing, or managing worktrees, you MUST read doc/DEVELOPING.md in the Paperclip repo. It is the canonical reference for all paperclipai CLI commands, their options, build/test workflows, database operations, worktree management, and diagnostics. Do NOT guess at flags or options — read the doc first. Quick
