## When to use this skill
**CRITICAL PREREQUISITE:**
**You must ONLY use this skill when the user EXPLICITLY mentions "Stitch".**
**ALWAYS use this skill when:**
- The user wants to start a **new** design task or app idea **using Stitch**.
- The user asks to "create a Stitch project", "start a new app in Stitch".
- The user switches context to a completely different domain (e.g., from "Medical App" to "Gaming App") and needs a clean slate.
- You need to obtain a `projectId` before generating screens.
**Trigger phrases include:**
- "Create a new Stitch project" (创建新 Stitch 项目)
- "Start a new Stitch app" (开始一个新 Stitch 应用)
- "Initialize Stitch workspace" (初始化 Stitch 工作区)
## How to use this skill
1. **Analyze the User Request**: Extract a meaningful `title` for the project.
* *User*: "Design a cyberpunk blog." -> *Title*: "Cyberpunk Blog"
* *User*: "Make a login page." -> *Title*: "Login Page Project" (Generic)
2. **Call the MCP Tool**: Invoke `create_project` with the `title`.
* If your client namespaces MCP tools, call `mcp__<serverName>__create_project`.
3. **Handle the Output (CRITICAL)**:
* The tool returns a `name` field (e.g., `projects/123456`).
* **YOU MUST EXTRACT THE NUMERIC ID**.
* *Example*: `projects/123456` -> `123456`.
* Store **BOTH** the full name (`projects/123...`) and the numeric ID (`123...`) in your context.
* **Usage Rule**:
* Use **Numeric ID** (`123...`) for `generate_screen_from_text` and `get_screen`.
* Use **Full Name** (`projects/123...`) for `list_screens` and `get_project`.
## Best Practices
1. **Meaningful Titles**: Always try to infer a descriptive title. Avoid "Untitled Project".
2. **One Project per Domain**: Encourage users to keep related screens (Login, Home, Settings) in the same project. Only create a new project if the domain changes.
3. **Context Persistency**: Explicitly tell the user: "I've created project 'X' (ID: 123). I will use this for our design session."
