# App Platform Skills — Router

## Overview

This skill routes DigitalOcean App Platform tasks to specialized sub-skills. Each sub-skill is optimized for a specific workflow, keeping context focused and responses precise.

**Philosophy**: These skills are opinionated playbooks, not documentation replicas. They make decisions for you (VPC by default, GitHub Actions for CI/CD, etc.) and only defer to docs for edge cases.

**Key Principle**: Skills contain only DO-specific knowledge the LLM doesn't have from training. Generic SQL, SDK patterns, and programming concepts are NOT duplicated here.

**Trust the AI**: The AI assistant should reason about the full workflow, chain skills together when needed, and adapt based on context (greenfield vs brownfield vs troubleshooting). Skills provide domain knowledge, not rigid scripts to follow blindly.

## Available Skills
