Makefile Generation Skill

Generate a Makefile with standard development targets for Python, Rust, or TypeScript projects.

When To Use

  • Need a Makefile for a project without one
  • Want to update Makefile with new targets
  • Standardizing build automation across projects
  • Setting up development workflow commands
  • Creating language-specific build targets

When NOT To Use

  • Makefile already exists and is current
  • Project uses alternative build system exclusively (e.g., npm scripts only)
  • Complex custom build process that doesn't fit standard patterns
  • Use /attune:upgrade-project instead for updating existing Makefiles

Standard Targets

Python Makefile

Common targets:

  • help - Show available targets
  • install - Install dependencies with uv
  • lint - Run ruff linting
  • format - Format code with ruff
  • typecheck - Run mypy type checking
  • test - Run pytest
  • test-coverage - Run tests with coverage report
  • check-all - Run all quality checks
  • clean - Remove generated files and caches
  • build - Build distribution packages
  • publish - Publish to PyPI

Rust Makefile

Common targets:

  • help - Show available targets
  • fmt - Format with rustfmt
  • lint - Run clippy
  • check - Cargo check
  • test - Run tests
  • build - Build release binary
  • clean - Clean build artifacts

TypeScript Makefile

Common targets:

  • help - Show available targets
  • install - Install npm dependencies
  • lint - Run ESLint
  • format - Format with Prettier
  • typecheck - Run tsc type checking
  • test - Run Jest tests
  • build - Build for production
  • dev - Start development server

Workflow

1. Detect Language

# Check for language indicators
if [ -f "pyproject.toml" ]; then
    LANGUAGE="python"
elif [ -f "Cargo.toml" ]; then
    LANGUAGE="rust"
elif [ -f "package.json" ]; then
    LANGUAGE="typescript"
fi

Verification: Run the command with --help flag to verify availability.

2. Load Template

from pathlib import Path

template_path = Path("plugins/attune/templates") / language / "Makefile.template"

Verification: Run the command with --help flag to verify availability.

3. Collect Project Info

metadata = {
    "PROJECT_NAME": "my-project",
    "PROJECT_MODULE": "my_project",
    "PYTHON_VERSION": "3.10",
}

Verification: Run the command with --help flag to verify availability.

4. Render Template

from template_engine import TemplateEngine

engine = TemplateEngine(metadata)
engine.render_file(template_path, Path("Makefile"))

Verification: Run the command with --help flag to verify availability.

5. Verify

make help

Verification: Run make --dry-run to verify build configuration.

Customization

Users can add custom targets after the generated ones:

# ============================================================================
# CUSTOM TARGETS
# ============================================================================

deploy: build ## Deploy to production
	./scripts/deploy.sh

Verification: Run the command with --help flag to verify availability.

Unexpected behavior Enable verbose logging with --verbose flag
