What it does

301 Frameworks Spring Boot Core is an agent skill from jabrena/plinth. Use when you need to review, improve, or build Spring Boot 4.0.x applications — including proper usage of @SpringBootApplication, component annotations (@Controller, @Service, @Repository), bean definition and scoping, configuration classes and @ConfigurationProperties (with @Validated), component scanning, conditional configuration and profiles, constructor injection, @Primary and @Qualifier for multiple beans of the same type, bean minimization, graceful shutdown, virtual threads, Jakarta EE namespace…

Its SKILL.md is about 990 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files, including reference files (for example `references/301-frameworks-spring-boot-core.md`).

It sits in Backend & APIs, covering Backend development and Scheduled and recurring tasks. It works with Spring Boot and Java. The repository describes itself as: Plinth is an AI-native engineering toolkit for modern Java enterprise SDLC, built around reusable Commands, Agents, Skills, and MCP Servers. The licence is Apache-2.0.

When your agent uses it

  • You need to review
  • Build Spring Boot 4.0.x applications — including proper usage of @SpringBootApplication
  • Component annotations (@Controller
  • Bean definition and scoping

Example prompts

  • “/301-frameworks-spring-boot-core”

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit dca88dc. 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:

    • mvn

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    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

301 Frameworks Spring Boot Core loads about 986 tokens when it runs, and up to ~13k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 228 tokens; SKILL.md has 350 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~228
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~986
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~13k

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.

Spring Boot Core Guidelines

Apply Spring Boot Core guidelines for annotations, bean management, configuration, and dependency injection.

What is covered in this Skill?

  • @SpringBootApplication and main application class
  • Component annotations: @RestController, @Service, @Repository
  • Bean definition, scoping, lifecycle
  • Configuration classes and @ConfigurationProperties (with @Validated for fail-fast startup)
  • Component scanning and package organization
  • Conditional configuration and profiles (@Profile, @ConditionalOn*)
  • Constructor dependency injection
  • @Primary and @Qualifier for disambiguation when multiple beans share a type
  • Bean minimization and composition
  • Graceful shutdown for in-flight work
  • Virtual threads on supported stacks for concurrency-bound workloads
  • Jakarta EE namespace consistency (jakarta.* preferred; avoid mixing legacy javax.annotation / javax.validation)
  • Scheduled tasks and background processing

Scope: Apply recommendations based on the reference rules and good/bad code examples.

Constraints

Before applying any Spring Boot changes, ensure the project compiles. If compilation fails, stop immediately. After applying improvements, run full verification.

  • MANDATORY: Run ./mvnw compile or mvn compile before applying any change
  • SAFETY: If compilation fails, stop immediately — compilation failure is a blocking condition
  • VERIFY: Run ./mvnw clean verify or mvn clean verify after applying improvements
  • BEFORE APPLYING: Read the reference for detailed rules, good/bad patterns, and constraints
  • EDGE CASE: If request scope is ambiguous, stop and ask a clarifying question before applying changes
  • EDGE CASE: If required inputs, files, or tooling are missing, report what is missing and ask whether to proceed with setup guidance

When to use this skill

  • Review Java code for Spring Boot application
  • Apply best practices for Spring Boot application in Java code
  • Improve Spring Boot configuration properties and beans
  • Review Spring Boot component scanning and profiles
  • Tune Spring Boot graceful shutdown or virtual threads

Workflow

  1. Read reference and assess project context

Read references/301-frameworks-spring-boot-core.md and inspect the current project setup before proposing changes.

  1. Gather scope and decide target improvements

Identify requested outcomes, constraints, and the minimum safe set of changes to apply.

  1. Apply framework-aligned changes

Implement or refactor configuration/code following the reference patterns and project conventions.

  1. Run verification and report results

Execute appropriate build/tests and summarize what changed, what was verified, and any follow-up actions.
