Scaffold AI-development-ready FastAPI projects: pinned upstream template plus Claude Code skills, MCP config, and design docs

dev-ready

Scaffold a production-grade, AI-development-ready FastAPI + React project in one command:

uvx dev-ready init my-app

The upstream template is pinned to a CI-verified commit (never an untested "latest"), and generation is all-or-nothing — if any step fails, your target directory is never touched.

What you get

A generated project based on fastapi/full-stack-fastapi-template (FastAPI, React, SQLModel, PostgreSQL, Docker Compose), plus an AI tooling overlay so it works well with coding agents out of the box:

• CLAUDE.md — project instructions for Claude Code
• Claude Code skills (e.g. project orientation)
• MCP server configuration (mcp.json)
• Design-doc templates (architecture.md, requirements.md)

Requirements

• Python >= 3.12
• uv (for uvx), or install with pip install dev-ready
• Network access to github.com (to fetch the pinned template snapshot)
• Docker is not required to generate a project — only to run the generated one

Usage

# Interactive: prompts for anything not given on the command line
uvx dev-ready init

# Non-interactive: accept all defaults, no prompts
uvx dev-ready init my-app --yes

# Options
uvx dev-ready init my-app \
  --dir path/to/target \  # default: ./my-app
  --no-skills \           # skip the Claude Code skills overlay
  --no-mcp \              # skip the MCP configuration overlay
  --no-docs               # skip the design-doc templates

Then follow the printed next steps (typically docker compose watch inside the generated project).

Exit codes: 0 success; 1 unexpected error or user abort; 2 argument error; 3 network/fetch failure; 4 target directory conflict; 5 structural verification failure.

How it works

The CLI ships with a lockfile (manifest.json) pinning the upstream template commit. Generation fetches that exact snapshot, applies the overlay with variable substitution, verifies the result structurally — all inside a staging directory — and only then moves it into the target. The pin is kept current by a weekly CI job that opens bump PRs, each validated by actually generating and booting a project with Docker Compose.
