1. Identify the topic from the user's request:

- Engine overview/了解引擎 → examples/getting-started/about-engine.md

- Quick start/快速上手 → examples/getting-started/quick-start.md

- Installation/安装配置 → examples/getting-started/installation.md

- Node and Scene/节点和场景 → examples/core/node-scene.md

- Sprite/精灵 → examples/core/sprite.md

- Texture/纹理 → examples/core/texture.md

- Animation/动画 → examples/core/animation.md

- Action/动作 → examples/core/action.md

- Label/标签 → examples/core/label.md

- Scene management/场景管理 → examples/core/scene.md

- Input handling/输入处理 → examples/core/input.md

- Event system/事件系统 → examples/core/event.md

- Physics/物理引擎 → examples/advanced/physics.md

- Rendering/渲染 → examples/advanced/rendering.md

- Shaders/着色器 → examples/advanced/shader.md

- Particle system/粒子系统 → examples/advanced/particle.md

- Build system/构建系统 → examples/tools/build-system.md

- Platform deployment/平台部署 → examples/tools/deployment.md

1. Load the appropriate example file from the examples/ directory:

- examples/getting-started/about-engine.md - Engine overview and features

- examples/getting-started/quick-start.md - Create first project

- examples/getting-started/installation.md - Environment setup

- examples/core/node-scene.md - Node and Scene concepts

- examples/core/sprite.md - Sprite creation and manipulation

- examples/core/texture.md - Texture loading and management

- examples/core/animation.md - Animation system

- examples/core/action.md - Action system and sequences

- examples/core/label.md - Label and text rendering

- examples/core/scene.md - Scene management and transitions

- examples/core/input.md - Touch, mouse, and keyboard input

- examples/core/event.md - Event system and listeners

- examples/advanced/physics.md - Physics engine integration

- examples/advanced/rendering.md - Rendering pipeline

- examples/advanced/shader.md - Custom shaders

- examples/advanced/particle.md - Particle effects

- examples/tools/build-system.md - CMake and build configuration

- examples/tools/deployment.md - Platform-specific deployment

1. Follow the specific instructions in that example file for syntax, structure, and best practices

Each example file contains:

- Instructions: Overview and usage guidelines

- Syntax: API syntax and parameters

- Examples: Complete code examples with explanations

- Reference: Links to official documentation

1. Generate C++ code following Cocos2d-x v4 conventions:

- Use USING_NS_CC; for namespace

- Use CREATE_FUNC() macro for create functions

- Follow Cocos2d-x naming conventions

- Include proper error handling

- Use smart pointers where appropriate

1. Reference the official documentation:

- Official manual: https://docs.cocos.com/cocos2d-x/v4/manual/zh/

- API reference: Check api/ directory for detailed API documentation

- Examples: Check examples/ directory for code examples

1. Use templates when creating new projects:

- templates/project-structure.md - Standard project structure

- templates/cmake-config.md - CMake configuration examples

Doc mapping (one-to-one with official documentation)

• See examples and API files → https://docs.cocos.com/cocos2d-x/v4/manual/zh/

Node System

• Node: Base class for all display objects
• Scene: Root node of the scene graph
• Sprite: Image display node
• Label: Text display node
• Node hierarchy: Parent-child relationships

Coordinate System

• Origin at bottom-left (OpenGL style)
• Anchor point for positioning
• Local and world coordinates

Action System

• Action: Base class for node transformations
• Sequence: Chain multiple actions
• Spawn: Run actions simultaneously
• Repeat: Repeat actions multiple times
• Ease: Apply easing functions

Scene Management

• Scene transitions
• Scene lifecycle (onEnter, onExit)
• Director for scene management

Input Handling

• Touch events (single and multi-touch)
• Mouse events
• Keyboard events
• Event dispatcher system

Cocos2d-x v4 supports:

• Desktop: Windows, macOS, Linux
• Mobile: Android, iOS
• Web: (via Cocos Creator)

• CMake: Primary build system
• Command-line tools: cocos command
• IDE support: Visual Studio, Xcode, Android Studio

For migrating from older versions:

• Check examples/migration/ for migration guides
• API changes and compatibility notes
• CMake migration from older build systems

• Official Documentation: https://docs.cocos.com/cocos2d-x/v4/manual/zh/
• API Reference: See api/ directory
• Examples: See examples/ directory
• Templates: See templates/ directory

1. Version: This skill covers Cocos2d-x v4 specifically
2. Language: C++ is the primary development language
3. Build System: CMake is required for building projects
4. Platform: Ensure platform-specific dependencies are installed
5. Examples: All code examples use C++ syntax
6. Memory Management: Cocos2d-x uses reference counting, be careful with retain/release cycles
7. Coordinate System: Uses OpenGL-style coordinates (origin at bottom-left)
8. Thread Safety: Most Cocos2d-x operations must be performed on the main thread
