# Execute Shell Commands in Magento Environment

This utility skill detects the Magento development environment and provides the appropriate command wrapper for executing shell commands.

## Usage

Other skills should reference this skill when they need to execute commands in the Magento environment. The detected wrapper ensures commands run in the correct context (container or local).

## Step 1: Detect Environment

**Important:** Execute this script from the Magento project root directory, or provide the path as an argument.

Run this detection once at the start of any skill that needs to execute shell commands:

```bash
<skill_path>/scripts/detect_env.sh [magento_root_path]
```

Where `<skill_path>` is the directory containing this SKILL.md file (e.g., `.claude/skills/hyva-exec-shell-cmd`).

The optional `magento_root_path` argument specifies the Magento installation directory. If omitted, the script uses the current working directory.

Output: `warden`, `docker-magento`, `ddev`, or `local`

## Step 2: Apply Command Wrapper

Based on detected environment, wrap commands as follows:

| Environment | Command Wrapper | Description |
|-------------|-----------------|-------------|
| Warden | `warden env exec -T php-fpm bash -c "<command>"` | Docker environment managed by Warden |
| docker-magento | `bin/clinotty bash -c "<command>"` | Mark Shust's docker-magento setup |
| DDEV | `ddev exec <command>` | DDEV containerized environment |
| Local | Run `<command>` directly | Native environment without containers |

## Examples

### Single command

```bash
# Warden
warden env exec -T php-fpm bash -c "bin/magento cache:clean"

# docker-magento
bin/clinotty bash -c "bin/magento cache:clean"

# DDEV
ddev exec bin/magento cache:clean

# Local
bin/magento cache:clean
```

### Command with directory change

```bash
# Warden
warden env exec -T php-fpm bash -c "cd vendor/hyva-themes/magento2-default-theme/web/tailwind && npm run build"

# docker-magento
bin/clinotty bash -c "cd vendor/hyva-themes/magento2-default-theme/web/tailwind && npm run build"

# DDEV
ddev exec bash -c "vendor/hyva-themes/magento2-default-theme/web/tailwind && npm run build"

# Local
cd vendor/hyva-themes/magento2-default-theme/web/tailwind && npm run build
```

## Commands That Do NOT Require Wrapping

Some commands run on the host system and should NOT be wrapped:

- `composer` commands (runs on host, not in container)
- `git` commands
- File operations on the host filesystem (`ls`, `find`, `cp` for files accessible from host)
- `warden` CLI commands
- `ddev` CLI commands

## Integration Pattern

Skills that need to execute commands should:

1. Reference this skill: "Use the `hyva-exec-shell-cmd` skill to determine the command wrapper"
2. Detect environment once using Step 1
3. Store the wrapper pattern for use throughout the skill
4. Apply the wrapper to all container commands per Step 2
