sw6-skills

Community-maintained Claude skill files for Shopware 6 client project development.

What is this?

Each SKILL.md file is a structured instruction set that Claude reads before tackling a task. They encode accumulated best practices, gotchas, and patterns for Shopware 6 and its common ecosystem tools.

These skills are for developing client projects with Shopware 6 — not for contributing to Shopware 6 core itself.

Structure

skills/
├── shopware6/         # Core SW6: plugins, DAL, entities, events, CLI, search, storefront, API
└── ddev/              # DDEV local development: config, services, hot-reload, commands

Usage

Install as a Claude Code plugin (recommended)

This repo ships as a Claude Code plugin marketplace (.claude-plugin/marketplace.json), so you can install it straight from GitHub:

/plugin marketplace add vanWittlaer/sw6-skills
/plugin install sw6-skills@sw6-skills

The first command registers this repo as a marketplace; the second installs the sw6-skills plugin from it. After install, the shopware6 and ddev skills are available to Claude Code automatically — no CLAUDE.md wiring needed.

To update later:

/plugin marketplace update sw6-skills

To remove:

/plugin uninstall sw6-skills@sw6-skills
/plugin marketplace remove sw6-skills

Claude Code (manual, without the plugin)

Place skill files where Claude Code can read them directly, or reference them in your project's CLAUDE.md:

For Shopware 6 tasks, read and follow: skills/shopware6/SKILL.md
For DDEV tasks, read and follow: skills/ddev/SKILL.md

claude.ai custom instructions

Add to your custom instructions:

"For any Shopware 6 task, first fetch and follow: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/vanWittlaer/sw6-skills/main/skills/shopware6/SKILL.md"

API / Claude for Teams

Paste the skill content directly into the system prompt for project conversations.

Contributing

PRs welcome. Keep skills factual, concise, and example-driven. Avoid opinion where Shopware's own docs are authoritative — link instead.
