MedReg Healthcare Platform Development

An Aider skill for developing the MedReg healthcare platform with National Health Information Exchange (NHIE) integration. Automatically loads project context, manages git workflows, and runs quality checks.

What This Skill Does

Instructions

When working on the MedReg platform, follow these steps:

1. **Context Loading**

- Always reference START_HERE.md for project overview

- Consult AGENTS.md for AI agent guidelines and project context

- Review 08_MVP_Build_Strategy.md for build priorities

- Check 02_NHIE_Integration_Technical_Specifications.md for integration requirements

2. **Development Workflow**

- Use GPT-4 or Claude for best code generation results

- Make incremental, focused changes aligned with MVP strategy

- Ensure all changes respect NHIE integration specifications

- Consider both backend (Java/Maven) and frontend (pnpm) impacts

3. **Code Quality**

- Run backend linting before commits: `mvn checkstyle:check`

- Run frontend linting before commits: `cd frontend && pnpm lint`

- Auto-linting is enabled; Aider will automatically check style

- Tests are available but not auto-run (manual: `mvn test`, `cd frontend && pnpm test`)

4. **Git Management**

- Commits are automatically created with descriptive messages

- All commits include co-authorship attribution to Aider

- Review commit messages to ensure they clearly describe healthcare-related changes

- Keep commits focused on single features or fixes

5. **Healthcare Compliance**

- Always consider patient data privacy and security

- Follow NHIE integration patterns as specified in technical docs

- Validate that changes don't break healthcare data flows

- Document any healthcare-specific logic or compliance requirements

Example Usage

```bash

Start Aider with this configuration

aider --config .aider.conf.yml

Example prompts:

"Add validation for patient registration form according to NHIE specs"

"Implement NHIE data synchronization endpoint with proper error handling"

"Add unit tests for the patient eligibility check service"

"Update frontend to display NHIE integration status"

```
