hono

Overview

A Claude Code skill for efficiently developing Hono web applications using the Hono CLI (@hono/cli). It provides a workflow centered on documentation search, API reference lookup, request testing without server startup, and bundle optimization for production deployment across multiple platforms.

Key Features

• Documentation Search - Search Hono APIs and features with hono search and view detailed docs with hono docs for specific paths like context, helpers, and middleware
• Server-Free Request Testing - Test endpoints using hono request which uses app.request() internally, requiring no HTTP server startup for GET, POST, and header-based requests
• Bundle Optimization - Optimize and bundle Hono applications with hono optimize for production, supporting minification and platform-specific targets like Cloudflare Workers and Deno
• Research-First Workflow - Encourages searching documentation before implementing unfamiliar APIs, then implementing, testing, and optimizing in sequence
• Middleware Discovery - Search for middleware usage patterns with hono search "middleware name" for proper integration guidance

Who is this for?

This skill is designed for developers building web applications with the Hono framework who want to leverage the Hono CLI for efficient development. It is particularly useful for those deploying Hono apps to edge platforms like Cloudflare Workers or Deno who need quick API lookups, server-free testing, and optimized production bundles.
