Works with every agent the skills CLI supports.
npx skills add https://github.com/gentleman-programming/gentleman-skills --skill angular-architecture- 01
Install
Run the command in your project. The CLI asks which agents to install for.
- 02
Describe the task
Ask your agent for something this skill covers. It loads angular-architecture automatically when relevant.
- 03
Review the result
The agent follows the SKILL.md steps, scripts and references bundled with the skill.
SKILL.md
The instructions your agent reads when the skill is triggered.
The Scope Rule (REQUIRED)
"Scope determines structure" - Where a component lives depends on its usage.
| Usage | Placement |
|---|---|
| Used by 1 feature | features/[feature]/components/ |
| Used by 2+ features | features/shared/components/ |
Example
features/
shopping-cart/
shopping-cart.ts # Main component = feature name
components/
cart-item.ts # Used ONLY by shopping-cart
cart-summary.ts # Used ONLY by shopping-cart
checkout/
checkout.ts
components/
payment-form.ts # Used ONLY by checkout
shared/
components/
button.ts # Used by shopping-cart AND checkout
modal.ts # Used by multiple features
Project Structure
src/app/
features/
[feature-name]/
[feature-name].ts # Main component (same name as folder)
components/ # Feature-specific components
services/ # Feature-specific services
models/ # Feature-specific types
shared/ # ONLY for 2+ feature usage
components/
services/
pipes/
core/ # App-wide singletons
services/
interceptors/
guards/
app.ts
app.config.ts
routes.ts
main.ts
File Naming (REQUIRED)
No .component, .service, .model suffixes. The folder tells you what it is.
✅ user-profile.ts
❌ user-profile.component.ts
✅ cart.ts
❌ cart.service.ts
✅ user.ts
❌ user.model.ts
Style Guide
What We Follow (from official docs)
inject()over constructor injectionclassandstylebindings overngClass/ngStyleprotectedfor template-only membersreadonlyfor inputs, outputs, queries- Name handlers for action (
saveUser) not event (handleClick) - Keep lifecycle hooks simple - delegate to well-named methods
- One concept per file
@Component({...})
export class UserProfileComponent {
// 1. Injected dependencies
private readonly userService = inject(UserService);
// 2. Inputs/Outputs
readonly userId = input.required<string>();
readonly userSaved = output<User>();
// 3. Internal state
private readonly _loading = signal(false);
readonly loading = this._loading.asReadonly();
// 4. Computed
protected readonly displayName = computed(() => ...);
// 5. Methods
save(): void { ... }
}
What We Override
| Official Says | We Do | Why |
|---|---|---|
user-profile.component.ts | user-profile.ts | Redundant - folder tells context |
user.service.ts | user.ts | Same |
Commands
