What it does

401 Frameworks Quarkus Core is an agent skill from jabrena/plinth. Use when building or reviewing core Quarkus applications with CDI beans and scopes, SmallRye Config and profiles, lifecycle, interceptors and events, virtual threads, and test-friendly design. This should trigger for requests such as Review Java code for Quarkus application structure and CDI; Apply best practices for Quarkus configuration and beans; Improve CDI interceptors, events, or programmatic injection in Quarkus; Add virtual-thread configuration or tune CDI lifecycle. ; Review Quarkus CDI bean lifecycle…

Its SKILL.md is about 890 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files, including reference files (for example `references/401-frameworks-quarkus-core.md`).

It works with 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

  • Reviewing core Quarkus applications with CDI beans and scopes
  • SmallRye Config and profiles
  • Interceptors and events
  • Virtual threads

Example prompts

  • “/401-frameworks-quarkus-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

401 Frameworks Quarkus Core loads about 887 tokens when it runs, and up to ~7.5k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 146 tokens; SKILL.md has 328 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~146
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~887
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~7.5k

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.

Quarkus Core Guidelines

Apply Quarkus core guidelines for CDI beans, configuration, profiles, and lifecycle.

What is covered in this Skill?

  • @QuarkusMain and application entry (when custom main is needed)
  • CDI scopes: @ApplicationScoped, @Singleton, @Dependent; bean disambiguation (@Default, @Alternative, @Named)
  • Constructor injection with @Inject
  • CDI interceptors (@Interceptor, @InterceptorBinding) for cross-cutting concerns
  • CDI events: @Observes StartupEvent / ShutdownEvent, @ObservesAsync for async dispatch
  • Programmatic injection with Instance<T> for dynamic bean selection
  • @ConfigMapping and structured configuration with Bean Validation (@Valid)
  • Profile-specific properties (%dev, %test, %prod) and @IfBuildProfile
  • Startup and shutdown observers (@Startup, @PreDestroy)
  • Virtual threads with @RunOnVirtualThread (Java 21+)
  • Native-image safety: @RegisterForReflection, @DisabledOnNativeImage

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

Constraints

Before applying any Quarkus 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
  • PREREQUISITE: Project must compile successfully before applying Quarkus core improvements
  • SAFETY: If compilation fails, stop immediately — compilation failure is a blocking condition
  • BLOCKING CONDITION: Compilation errors must be resolved by the user before proceeding
  • 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

When to use this skill

  • Review Java code for Quarkus application structure and CDI
  • Apply best practices for Quarkus configuration and beans
  • Improve CDI interceptors, events, or programmatic injection in Quarkus
  • Add virtual-thread configuration or tune CDI lifecycle
  • Review Quarkus CDI bean lifecycle and configuration

Workflow

  1. Read reference and assess project context

Read references/401-frameworks-quarkus-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.
