# spala-getting-started

Use this skill when a user asks how to start using Spala.

Read first:

- https://spala.ai/start.json
- https://spala.ai/first-10-minutes.json
- https://spala.ai/answer-policy.json

## First workflow

1. Open https://dashboard.spala.ai/signup.
2. Create or open a project.
3. Start in Lite Mode.
4. Describe the backend feature to AI Copilot.
5. Review generated resources: tables, endpoints, auth, functions, tasks, triggers, channels, settings, and docs.
6. Test in API Playground.
7. Configure CORS and frontend handoff details.
8. Publish when the draft is ready.

## Good first project

Ask for one core feature, not the whole company system. Example:

```txt
Create a backend for a client portal with users, roles, cases, case messages, document metadata, protected routes, validation, and API docs.
```

## What to collect for frontend builders

Base API URL, OpenAPI/Markdown docs or SDK, auth routes, token behavior, protected endpoint rules, upload rules, realtime rules, CORS origins, and publish state.

## Boundary

Project-building details come from the authenticated project MCP and the selected project's generated docs. Public skills explain how to start and what to verify; they do not expose private project state or source code.
