If TEL_PROMPTED is no: Before starting the skill workflow, ask the user about telemetry. Use AskUserQuestion:

Help superstack get better! We track which skills get used and how long they take —

no code, no file paths, no PII. Change anytime in ~/.superstack/config.json.

Options:

• A) Sure, help superstack improve (anonymous)
• B) No thanks

If A: run this bash:

echo '{"telemetryTier":"anonymous"}' > ~/.superstack/config.json
_TEL_TIER="anonymous"
touch ~/.superstack/.telemetry-prompted

If B: run this bash:

echo '{"telemetryTier":"off"}' > ~/.superstack/config.json
_TEL_TIER="off"
touch ~/.superstack/.telemetry-prompted

This only happens once. If TEL_PROMPTED is yes, skip this entirely and proceed to the skill workflow.

Build with Claude

Overview

Guide the user through implementing their Solana MVP feature by feature. Break the work into small, testable increments. Use installed skills and MCPs to accelerate development. Keep the user shipping, not stuck.

Workflow

1. Check for .superstack/build-context.md. If found, use the stack and architecture decisions. If not, ask what they've set up and what they want to build. Write .superstack/build-context.md with the context gathered so future skills can use it.
2. Read references/skill-mcp-usage-guide.md to understand what tools are available BEFORE building.
3. Read references/dev-environment-setup.md to ensure the dev environment is ready.
4. Read references/solana-dev-patterns.md for implementation patterns.
5. Break the MVP into 3-5 milestones, each shippable in 1-2 hours.
6. For each milestone:

a. Explain what we're building and why b. Write the code (use installed skills for domain guidance) c. Test it (devnet first, always) d. Verify it works before moving on

1. When stuck, consult references/error-recovery-guide.md.
2. After MVP is complete, run through references/testing-checklist.md.

Prior Context (Optional — never block on this)

If .superstack/build-context.md exists, use the stack and architecture decisions. If it doesn't exist, proceed immediately — ask the user what they've set up and what they want to build. Do NOT redirect to scaffold-project or any other command.

Non-Negotiables

• Never block on missing context files. Always proceed by asking the user directly.
• Never write more than 1 milestone of code before testing. Ship small, verify often.
• Always test on devnet before suggesting mainnet.
• If the user is stuck for more than 2 attempts at the same problem, step back and try a different approach.
• Use the installed skills and MCPs — they exist to help. Don't reinvent what a skill already provides.
• Keep explanations short. The user is here to build, not read essays.
• Optionally update .superstack/build-context.md as milestones are completed.

Phase Handoff

This skill is Phase 2 (Build) in the Idea → Build → Launch journey.

Reads: .superstack/build-context.md (from scaffold-project) Writes/Updates: .superstack/build-context.md (creates if missing) with:

• build_status.milestones: array of completed milestones
• build_status.mvp_complete: boolean
• build_status.tests_passing: boolean
• build_status.devnet_deployed: boolean
• build_status.program_id: string (if applicable)

When MVP is complete and tests pass, tell the user to proceed to review-and-iterate for security audit and production readiness check.

When updating build-context.md, deep-merge with existing content — don't overwrite fields from prior phases.

See ../../data/specs/phase-handoff.md for the full JSON contract.

Quick Start

# Verify dev environment
solana --version       # 3.x (Agave)
anchor --version       # >= 1.0.0
node --version         # >= 20
 
# Start local validator for testing
solana-test-validator   # Or: surfpool --fork devnet (for real account data)
 
# Build and test
anchor build && anchor test
 
# Deploy to devnet when ready
anchor deploy --provider.cluster devnet

Decision Points

• Which RPC for development? Use devnet public or Helius free.
• Which wallet for testing? Use file keypair: solana-keygen new --outfile test-wallet.json
• When to move from local to devnet? After all unit tests pass locally. Devnet for integration tests.
• Surfpool vs solana-test-validator? Use Surfpool when you need real mainnet account state (DeFi, existing programs). Use test-validator for isolated testing.
• Full runbook: See ../../data/guides/rpc-wallet-guide.md

Telemetry (run last)

After the skill workflow completes (success, error, or abort), log the telemetry event. Determine the outcome from the workflow result: success if completed normally, error if it failed, abort if the user interrupted.

Run this bash:

_TEL_END=$(date +%s)
_TEL_DUR=$(( _TEL_END - ${_TEL_START:-$_TEL_END} ))
_TEL_TIER=$(cat ~/.superstack/config.json 2>/dev/null | grep -o '"telemetryTier": *"[^"]*"' | head -1 | sed 's/.*"telemetryTier": *"//;s/"$//' || echo "anonymous")
if [ "$_TEL_TIER" != "off" ]; then
echo '{"skill":"build-with-claude","phase":"build","event":"completed","outcome":"OUTCOME","duration_s":"'"$_TEL_DUR"'","session":"'"$_SESSION_ID"'","ts":"'$(date -u +%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%SZ)'","platform":"'$(uname -s)-$(uname -m)'"}' >> ~/.superstack/telemetry.jsonl 2>/dev/null || true
true
fi

Replace OUTCOME with success/error/abort based on the workflow result.
