What it does
Polylith Base Creation is an agent skill from DavidVujic/python-polylith. Create a Polylith base with poly create base — the entry point of a deployable application (HTTP API, CLI, message-queue consumer, AWS Lambda handler, GCP Cloud Function, scheduled job). Use when the user wants to add a service, API, endpoint, handler, or any new entry point to a Polylith workspace.
Its SKILL.md is about 760 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.
It sits in Backend & APIs, covering REST APIs, Event-driven systems and Background jobs. It works with AWS Lambda and Google Cloud. The repository describes itself as: Tooling support for the Polylith Architecture in Python. The licence is MIT.
When your agent uses it
- The user wants to add a service
- Any new entry point to a Polylith workspace
Example prompts
- “/polylith-base-creation”
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit a7a80f2. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Tool permissions
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:
uvpoetry
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use uv, which can reach the network depending on how they are called.
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Credentials
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Context cost
Polylith Base Creation loads about 757 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 81 tokens; SKILL.md has 275 words of instructions outside code blocks.
Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.
Safety
Auto-check passed
The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.
Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

- description
- Create a Polylith base with `poly create base` — the entry point of a deployable application (HTTP API, CLI, message-queue consumer, AWS Lambda handler, GCP Cloud Function, scheduled job). Use when the user wants to add a service, API, endpoint, handler, or any new entry point to a Polylith workspace.
Base Creation Skill
💡 Terminology: this skill uses Polylith terms like brick, base, namespace, and theme. If they're unfamiliar, load
polylith-conceptsfirst.
Quick command
uv run poly create base --name apiCommand prefix: If you do not know the package manager, list lock files with ls uv.lock poetry.lock pdm.lock 2>/dev/null (a pyproject.toml is always present, so it tells you nothing on its own). Use uv run poly (uv), poetry poly (poetry), pdm run poly (pdm), hatch run poly (hatch), or poly (activated venv). Examples below use uv run.
A base is the entry point of a deployable application. For non-entry-point reusable code (business logic, capabilities), use
polylith-component-creationinstead.
Command reference
| Option | Required | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
--name | yes | — | Name of the base (also the package name). |
--description | no | "" | Optional human-readable description. |
What gets created (loose theme)
bases/<namespace>/api/
├── __init__.py # Public interface — empty; add re-exports here
└── core.py # Implementation — empty; user fills it inIf [tool.polylith.test].enabled = true in workspace.toml, the CLI also creates test/bases/<namespace>/api/test_core.py.
For the tdd theme layout (bases/api/{src,test}/<namespace>/api/...), load the polylith-workspace-setup skill.
Examples
# Minimal
uv run poly create base --name api
# With description
uv run poly create base --name consumer --description "Kafka order consumer"Notes for the agent
core.pyis empty boilerplate — there is no FastAPI/Typer/Lambda scaffolding. Fill it in manually after creation if asked.__init__.pyis also empty. By Polylith convention it should re-export the brick's public symbols, so consumers importfrom <namespace>.api import …rather than reaching intocore.py.- A new base is not wired into any project. To wire it: load
polylith-syncand runpoly sync, or runpoly create project(the interactive prompt will offer to attach the base). - The same command works for both
looseandtddthemes — the CLI reads[tool.polylith.structure].themefromworkspace.toml.
Verification
After creation, verify the base exists using your file tools (e.g., check bases/<namespace>/<name>/__init__.py). Then, you will likely need to populate core.py and __init__.py using your file writing tools since they are created empty.
