Setup Portless
Configure Portless for stable localhost URLs in development
What You Can Do
This skill detects your project structure, installs Portless globally, and configures your dev scripts to use stable named URLs instead of port numbers. It handles monorepo detection, suggests appropriate subdomain naming conventions, and updates your package.json automatically—saving you from manual configuration and port conflict headaches.
Features
checks Node.js 20+ and macOS/Linux compatibility before proceeding
reads package.json to identify framework, dev scripts, and monorepo structure (Turbo, Lerna, pnpm workspaces)
installs or verifies the Portless proxy daemon
suggests subdomain names based on project type and monorepo workspace structure
updates package.json scripts to wrap existing commands with portless routing
generates naming schemes for multi-package setups (api.projectname, web.projectname, etc.)
provides commands to start and manage the Portless proxy service
Example Output
Example 1: Single Next.js project
✓ Node.js 20.1.0 detected
✓ Platform: macOS (compatible)
✓ Project: my-app (Next.js)
✓ Portless installed globally
Suggested app name: my-app
Updated dev script: portless my-app next dev
=> URL: http://my-app.localhost:1355
Example 2: Monorepo (Turbo)
✓ Turbo monorepo detected (3 workspaces)
✓ Portless installed globally
Workspace routing plan:
- apps/web → portless web turbo dev
- apps/api → portless api turbo dev
- packages/docs → portless docs turbo dev
Updated root dev scripts for coordinated startup
What's Included
- setup-portless.md: the core instruction file with detection logic and configuration workflow
- Portless installation checklist: prerequisite verification steps and platform compatibility guide
- Package.json script templates: ready-to-use wrapped dev commands for single projects and monorepos
- Monorepo configuration framework: subdomain naming conventions and multi-workspace setup patterns
- Proxy daemon quick-start reference: commands to initialize and manage the Portless service
Who It's For
- Full-stack developers — streamline local dev environment routing across multiple services
- Monorepo maintainers — coordinate stable URLs across workspaces without port conflicts
- DevOps engineers — standardize naming conventions for development proxying across teams
- Next.js and Vite developers — eliminate port reassignment friction during development
- AI-assisted development — enable stable URL references for Claude and other AI agents in local testing
Best For
- Setting up new project dev environments with stable naming from the start
- Migrating existing projects from port-based localhost to named URL routing
- Configuring monorepo dev scripts across multiple workspaces simultaneously
- Resolving port conflicts in complex development setups with many services
- Establishing team-wide conventions for local development URL naming

You can input historical ticket volume data, agent availability, skill distributions, and cost constraints into Claude to systematically identify coverage gaps and generate optimized shift schedules. The skill surfaces non-obvious solutions like identifying when part-time coverage outperforms full-time hiring, pinpointing cross-training opportunities to improve flexibility, and calculating labor cost trade-offs for different scheduling scenarios—enabling you to make evidence-based decisions that balance operational efficiency with SLA compliance.

You can deploy Cloudflare Workers scripts, configure KV Storage and R2 buckets, manage DNS records, set up Pages deployments, and handle routing rules—all directly from Claude. The skill automatically validates your API credentials, extracts live deployment URLs, and surfaces clear error messages when configuration issues arise.

Set up continuous monitoring of specific directories or file types, then automatically trigger Claude prompts whenever files change. Perfect for real-time code validation, design-to-code synchronization, test generation, or configuration updates. Each changed file is processed through your custom prompt with full access to its contents.

You can design end-to-end outbound call campaigns from lead list strategy through performance monitoring. Claude helps you create compliant call scripts, validate against TCPA/FCC regulations, set realistic productivity targets that sustain agent morale, and implement KPI tracking systems that prove ROI to leadership. Transform campaign planning from guesswork into a data-driven iterative process.

Get comprehensive security and compliance analysis of your infrastructure-as-code across Terraform, CloudFormation, Kubernetes, and other IaC formats. Claude identifies security vulnerabilities, compliance gaps, performance inefficiencies, and cost optimizations while ensuring your infrastructure follows industry best practices and regulatory requirements.
You can generate complete, production-ready Kubernetes manifests from application requirements or audit existing YAML configurations for security vulnerabilities, resource efficiency, and reliability gaps. The skill applies industry best practices including CPU/memory limits, liveness and readiness probes, graceful rollout strategies, and least-privilege RBAC policies—eliminating common deployment pitfalls and accelerating your path to secure, scalable containerized applications.

You can transcribe audio and video files into accurate text with automatic speaker diarization (identifying who said what), support for 32+ languages, and detection of audio events like background noise or music. The skill accepts flexible parameters for output formatting, custom terminology, and speaker count optimization, making it ideal for podcasts, interviews, meetings, lectures, and multilingual content.

You can perform a complete audit of your project's environment variables to discover unused configurations, identify which services are integrated (Stripe, AWS, Supabase, etc.), and understand permission scopes. The skill maps exactly where each variable is used in your codebase, then optionally removes unused variables with automatic regression detection to prevent breaking changes.
