Summary

Adds a solutions-assisted CodeRabbit onboarding suite:

  • /onboard — evidence-backed readiness, exact admin handoffs, and optional first-review proof.
  • /config — Standard CLI setup or a patient Detailed proposal through CLI inspect, validation, dry-run, base-hash checking, and apply.
  • /connect — permission-aware Jira/Linear, MCP, linked-repository, and reporting setup without handling credentials or pretending YAML proves connection health.

All three skills are thin skins over the CodeRabbit CLI and backend. They do not create pull requests, edit YAML directly, copy schema/default logic, mutate dashboard state without approval, or invent remote state the product cannot verify.

Assisted distribution boundary

These are intentionally not part of the default skill package:

  • They live under solutions/, outside the conventional skills/ package root used by npx skills, native plugins, and coderabbit skills release extraction.
  • Their OpenAI metadata disables implicit invocation.
  • Their skill metadata marks them internal as defense in depth.
  • /solutions/ export-ignore excludes them from tagged release archives.
  • The release workflow asserts that the default skills/ bundle remains exactly autofix and code-review.
  • Root README and plugin manifests do not advertise or bundle them.

An intentional assisted engagement can install one from its exact tree URL and exact skill name; the commands live only in the maintainer-facing distribution inventory.

Safety contract

  • Unknown product, integration, permission, billing, and repository-access state stays Unknown and becomes an explicit human handoff.
  • File writes, browser authorization, review submission, integration changes, test deliveries, and admin changes require approval.
  • Secrets and OAuth/API credentials stay in official browser/provider flows.
  • /config lets the local guided CLI create a first sparse file before Detailed mode proposes broader changes.
  • /connect distinguishes live connection state from repository usage settings.
  • /onboard never creates a synthetic change, branch, commit, or pull request to prove setup.

References

Scope reduction (2026-09-08)

  • Central-config discovery is removed from CLI onboarding; no reviewer/backend deployment is needed for local configuration.
  • Standard creates a small Balanced configuration; Detailed builds on guided local creation. Existing settings remain intact.
  • Config and connect instructions no longer request central detection. Config uses the config-local version probe without an authentication prerequisite.
  • Updated config/connect skill validators and both distribution tests pass. The suite remains opt-in and unbundled.

Earlier acceptance (2026-09-07; previous candidate)

  • Candidate capability gate requires config protocol v1; no assumption that latest stable supports it.
  • First-file generation stays in the guided CLI. Detailed mode only applies against an inspected writable YAML and its exact base hash.
  • Standard and Detailed agent-executed instructions passed with the real compiled candidate and live public schema, including cancellation, unchanged dry-run, stale-hash refusal, and preservation of comments/unrelated settings.
  • Standalone connect follows the same first-file guard; onboard requires schema validation before reporting configuration Ready.
  • Three skill validators and two executable packaging/archive tests pass. Ordinary local Skills CLI listing, including --all, exposes only autofix and code-review; each explicit solution path exposes only its named skill.
  • Host slash-command UI registration and live central discovery are not established by these tests.
  • Keep draft until the required CLI release; exact-path candidate use remains opt-in.

Earlier validation

  • quick_validate.py solutions/onboard — PASS.
  • quick_validate.py solutions/config — PASS.
  • quick_validate.py solutions/connect — PASS.
  • jq empty .claude-plugin/plugin.json .cursor-plugin/plugin.json gemini-extension.json plugin.json — PASS.
  • coderabbit config validate .coderabbit.yaml — PASS against the current official schema.
  • git diff --check — PASS.
  • npx --yes skills add . --list — PASS; lists only autofix and code-review.
  • Exact-path list checks — PASS; each subtree exposes exactly its named skill.
  • Isolated exact-path /config install — PASS; SKILL.md, OpenAI metadata, and Detailed reference copied.
  • Staged-tree release archive inspection — PASS; contains skills/autofix and skills/code-review, with no solutions/ entries.
  • Fresh-context forward tests — PASS; /onboard and /connect produced honest handoffs under no-write/no-auth constraints, and /config refused to bypass an older CLI missing the required protocol.

Schema-wide Detailed configuration (2026-09-08)

  • Agent Detailed now reads the complete live schema, including nested fields and alternative forms, and accounts for each field as Configure, Keep, Skip or a discussed/deferred choice. The conversational section list does not cap supported settings.
  • The agent discovers guideline documents and actual file matches, discusses standing requirements with the user, and distinguishes guideline mappings, filters and path instructions. It covers review automation, tools, pre/post-merge behavior, finishing touches, chat, knowledge-base settings, code generation and issue enrichment.
  • Standard and the human-driven CLI wizard are unchanged. The CLI remains the validator/writer; no central lookup or Mono/backend/infrastructure changes are added.
  • A no-change Detailed pass validates and re-inspects the active file without a redundant approval or apply. Fresh creation still requires the guided baseline approval.

Validation for commit d00438b:

  • Two independent native macOS skill forward tests passed against the existing config candidate: a mixed-language repository with a changed proposal, and a fresh minimal notes repository.
  • Both coverage maps account for all 301 named property paths in the fetched live schema; no missing paths. This proves consideration, not runtime execution of every feature.
  • Mixed case: discovered scoped standards and matching paths, asked for tenant/release-branch intent, preserved team overrides/comments, validated and dry-ran through the CLI, then saved the exact approved bytes.
  • Minimal case: declined an unnecessary guideline rule and kept only the approved Balanced baseline. The initial redundant no-op approval was reproduced; the updated validate/re-inspect exit passed in the same continuation, not a separate cold-start run.
  • Config skill frontmatter validator, Markdown formatting and git diff --check pass. node --test solutions/tests/distribution.test.mjs passes both tests after commit; the suite remains outside default discovery and archives.
  • Restricted-network schema failures passed on public-schema-only retries with no partial writes. Hosted behavior and installed slash-command UI were not tested. Standalone CodeRabbit review was not run because no installed review CLI was available on PATH.

Release state

Keep this PR draft until the required guided configuration CLI is in an official release. The suite remains unbundled even after merge and is shared only by exact path for intentional assisted use.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features

    • Added opt-in /onboard, /config, and /connect skills for readiness checks, configuration guidance, and context integrations.
    • Added approval safeguards, validation steps, and verification workflows for sensitive actions.
  • Documentation

    • Added installation instructions, prerequisites, acceptance guidance, and failure-handling documentation for the optional skills.
    • Guidance now applies consistently across skills and solutions.
  • Release Improvements

    • Release builds now verify that only intended default skills are included.
    • Optional skills remain excluded from default discovery and release archives.

Route create, update, and validation requests through the official CLI so every host shares one guided implementation. Document the new config skill across supported distribution surfaces without duplicating YAML logic.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The PR adds onboard, config, and connect Solutions skills with agent metadata, operating rules, direct-install documentation, archive exclusions, path guidance, and release-bundle validation.

Changes

Solutions onboarding suite

Layer / File(s) Summary
Configuration workflow
solutions/config/...
Adds CLI-only configuration workflows with discovery, validation, approval, dry-run, reporting, and safety controls.
Connection planning workflow
solutions/connect/...
Adds scoped integration planning, read-only inspection, official authorization, verification requirements, and credential-handling restrictions.
Onboarding readiness workflow
solutions/onboard/...
Adds CLI preflight, authentication checks, readiness scoring, workflow routing, proof paths, and explicit approval requirements.
Distribution and release controls
DISTRIBUTION_CHANNELS.md, .github/workflows/release.yml, .gitattributes, .coderabbit.yaml, solutions/README.md, solutions/tests/*
Documents direct installation, excludes Solutions skills from default bundles and exported archives, expands path guidance, and validates the default skill set and release archives.

Priority: ⬇️ Low — Defer this opt-in onboarding skill suite because it stays outside default discovery and release archives, limiting its immediate product impact.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 440d2

Running either skill can unexpectedly switch the organization used by later CodeRabbit actions. Gate this command behind explicit approval before merge.

Full details: Agent Guidance Structure

Explanation

The pull request adds three skills, so the required structure checks apply. Each new SKILL.md uses metadata.internal: true (solutions/onboard/SKILL.md:5, solutions/config/SKILL.md:5, and solutions/connect/SKILL.md:5). YAML parses this value as a Boolean, but the Agent Skills specification requires metadata values to be strings. The public specification states that metadata is a map from string keys to string values. The changed files are absent from the base and therefore this is introduced by the pull request. The OpenAI agents/openai.yaml fields otherwise match the current host guidance, and the referenced detailed-discovery file exists.

Resolution

Change internal: true to internal: "true" in all three SKILL.md frontmatter blocks, or remove the non-portable internal metadata field and retain the host-specific invocation policy in agents/openai.yaml. Re-run the Agent Skills validator after the change.

Align prerequisites with the existing CLI contract.

These checks prove only that the binary runs and that help output exists. They do not prove authentication or the minimum supported CLI version. The current CLI exposes auth status and doctor checks for these concerns. (docs.coderabbit.ai)

Reuse the prerequisite gate from skills/code-review/SKILL.md, or document and test why configuration operations do not require it.

These lines present guided configuration as available. Lines 209-214 correctly mark config as release-gated, and DISTRIBUTION_CHANNELS.md Lines 11-12 mark it as not user-facing. The README therefore gives conflicting release guidance. The current official CLI reference documents cr config validate but does not document config --generate. (docs.coderabbit.ai)

Remove the active Quickstart and Usage triggers, or label all configuration instructions as unreleased until the required CLI commands are available.

🌐 Web query:

site:docs.coderabbit.ai/cli/reference CodeRabbit CLI --version config validate

💡 Result:

The CodeRabbit CLI uses the command cr config validate [file] to validate CodeRabbit YAML syntax and settings against the current official schema [1]. The specific command structure you inquired about, --version config validate, is not a valid syntax in the CodeRabbit CLI. Based on the official documentation, the primary command for configuration validation is cr config validate [1]. Additionally, you can check the current CLI version using the standard cr --version command (or cr version) if supported by your specific installation, or by running cr update to check for and install the latest version [1]. The CLI alias cr can be used interchangeably with coderabbit [1].

Use the root version probe before capability detection.

17-17: 📐 Maintainability & Code Quality

Run all five commands against the engagement-approved CLI candidate before publishing. Record its version, build provenance, exit codes, and any unavailable capability. Keep the candidate blocked if a command is unsupported.

solutions/config/SKILL.md (2)

23-23: Use the root-level version probe.

The previous finding remains valid. This line still runs coderabbit config --version before the capability check. The current CLI documentation uses coderabbit --version for the version probe and documents config validate [file]. Replace this command so the workflow does not fail before protocol detection.

No change needed.

The solution-level CLI prerequisite already requires coderabbit config validate --help and treats missing capabilities as a candidate blocker. The public CLI reference also documents config validate --agent.
