/configure:feature-flags
Check and configure feature flag infrastructure using the OpenFeature standard with pluggable providers.
When to Use This Skill
Use this skill when... Use another approach when...
Adding feature flag infrastructure to a new project Creating or editing individual flag definitions in YAML
Setting up OpenFeature SDK with a provider (GOFF, flagd, LaunchDarkly) Debugging why a specific flag evaluation returns unexpected values
Auditing existing feature flag configuration for completeness Writing application logic that consumes feature flags
Configuring relay proxy infrastructure (Docker, Kubernetes) Managing LaunchDarkly or Split dashboard settings
Adding feature flag test helpers and in-memory providers Configuring error tracking (/configure:sentry instead)

Parameters
Parse from $ARGUMENTS :
-
--check-only : Report compliance status without modifications
-
--fix : Apply all fixes automatically without prompting
-
--provider <provider> : Override provider detection (goff, flagd, launchdarkly, split)
Version Checking
CRITICAL: Before configuring feature flags, verify latest SDK and provider versions using WebSearch or WebFetch:
-
OpenFeature JS SDK: Check npm
-
OpenFeature Python SDK: Check PyPI
-
GO Feature Flag: Check GitHub releases
-
flagd: Check GitHub releases
Execution
Execute this feature flag configuration workflow:
Step 1: Detect project language and existing setup
Check for existing feature flag infrastructure:
Indicator Language Detected Provider
@openfeature/server-sdk in package.json Node.js OpenFeature (check for provider)
@openfeature/web-sdk in package.json Browser JS OpenFeature Web
@openfeature/react-sdk in package.json React OpenFeature React
openfeature-sdk in pyproject.toml Python OpenFeature Python
@openfeature/go-feature-flag-provider
Node.js GO Feature Flag
go-feature-flag-relay-proxy in docker-compose Any GO Feature Flag Relay
flagd in docker-compose/k8s Any flagd provider
Step 2: Analyze current state
Check for complete feature flag setup:
-
Verify OpenFeature SDK installed for project language
-
Check provider package installed
-
Verify provider initialized in application startup
-
Check evaluation context configuration
-
Check hooks configured (logging, telemetry)
-
For GOFF: verify flag configuration file exists, relay proxy configured
-
For flagd: verify container/service configured, gRPC/HTTP endpoints
Step 3: Generate compliance report
Print a formatted compliance report:
Feature Flag Compliance Report
Project: [name] Language: [detected] Provider: [detected or None]
OpenFeature SDK: [status per check] Provider Config: [status per check] Infrastructure: [status per check]
Overall: [X issues found] Recommendations: [list specific fixes]
If --check-only , stop here.
Step 4: Install SDK and configure provider (if --fix or user confirms)
Based on detected language, install and configure the OpenFeature SDK with the selected provider. Use code templates from REFERENCE.md.
-
Install OpenFeature SDK and provider packages
-
Create feature flag client wrapper module
-
Create evaluation context helper
-
Create middleware for HTTP frameworks (Express, FastAPI, etc.)
Step 5: Create flag configuration
Create flags.goff.yaml with example flags covering common patterns:
-
Simple boolean flag
-
Percentage rollout
-
Multi-variant flag (A/B test)
-
Environment-specific flag
-
User-specific override
-
Scheduled rollout
Use flag templates from REFERENCE.md.
Step 6: Configure infrastructure
-
Create docker-compose entry for relay proxy (local development)
-
Optionally create Kubernetes manifests for production
Step 7: Create test configuration
Create test file using in-memory provider for feature flag unit tests.
Step 8: Update standards tracking
Update .project-standards.yaml :
components: feature_flags: "2025.1" feature_flags_sdk: "openfeature" feature_flags_provider: "[goff|flagd|launchdarkly]"
Step 9: Print completion report
Print a summary of all changes made including SDK installed, provider configured, flag file created, and next steps (start relay, initialize in app, use flags in code).
For detailed code templates, flag configuration patterns, and infrastructure manifests, see REFERENCE.md.
Agentic Optimizations
Context Command
Quick compliance check /configure:feature-flags --check-only
Auto-fix with GOFF provider /configure:feature-flags --fix --provider goff
Validate flag config goff lint --file flags.goff.yaml
Check relay proxy health `curl -s http://localhost:1031/health
List configured flags `curl -s http://localhost:1031/v1/feature/flags
Check SDK installed (JS) `jq -r '.dependencies
Flags
Flag Description
--check-only
Report status without offering fixes
--fix
Apply all fixes automatically without prompting
--provider <provider>
Override provider detection (goff, flagd, launchdarkly, split)
Examples
Check compliance and offer fixes
/configure:feature-flags
Check only, no modifications
/configure:feature-flags --check-only
Auto-fix with GO Feature Flag provider
/configure:feature-flags --fix --provider goff
Configure for LaunchDarkly
/configure:feature-flags --fix --provider launchdarkly
Error Handling
-
No package manager found: Cannot install SDK, provide manual steps
-
Provider not supported: List supported providers, suggest alternatives
-
Relay proxy unreachable: Check Docker/K8s configuration
-
Invalid flag syntax: Validate with goff lint before deployment
