At a glance
Starts a new Twenty app project, first settling which Twenty instance it will sync to: an existing server you point at, or a disposable local one run through Docker.
- Works in 2 steps: Existing Twenty instance (default) — the… → Local instance with Docker (fallback) —…
- Starting a Twenty app, plugin or extension from scratch
- SKILL.md covers Why A Twenty Instance Is Needed, Choose A Twenty Instance, Scaffolding and After Scaffolding, plus 1 more section
- Calls yarn and npx; reaches docker.com
What it does
Use this when someone wants to begin a brand-new app, plugin, extension or integration for Twenty, an open-source CRM. Before scaffolding, the agent explains that a Twenty app is a package that extends a running Twenty instance, so its objects, views, front components and logic functions are synced to that instance to be registered, rendered and tested.
The default path asks for the URL of an existing instance, cloud or self-hosted, and the scaffolder signs in through OAuth there. Only when you have no instance does it start a disposable local server on port 2020 through Docker, which needs Docker Desktop installed and running. Other Twenty skills (develop-app, manage-app, publish-app, use-twenty-mcp) handle apps that already exist.
When your agent uses it
- Starting a Twenty app, plugin or extension from scratch
- Bootstrapping a CRM integration project for Twenty
- Choosing between an existing Twenty instance and a local Docker one
Example prompts
- “Scaffold a new Twenty app called invoice-sync.”
- “I want to build a CRM extension for our self-hosted Twenty; set up the project.”
- “Bootstrap a Twenty app for me. I don't have an instance yet, so use Docker.”
Requirements
- A Twenty instance URL, or Docker Desktop to run one locally
- OAuth sign-in to the Twenty instance
Workflow steps
2 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
- Existing Twenty instance (default) — the user provides the URL of a running Twenty server (self-hosted or cloud, e.g…
- Local instance with Docker (fallback) — only when the user has no Twenty instance available. The scaffolder starts a disposable local…
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 0d66dd1. 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:
yarnnpx
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
Hosts in commands or code, which the agent is likely to contact:
docker.com
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
Create a Twenty App loads about 1.6k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 18 tokens; SKILL.md has 917 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.
SKILL.md
Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 917 words (~1,624 tokens).
