Develop and Automate 1C:Enterprise Solutions

1C Skills for Claude Code is a set of skills for AI agents, primarily Claude Code, covering the full development cycle on the 1C:Enterprise 8.3 platform - from creating configurations, extensions, external data processors and reports, through loading changes into an information base, updating, running, publishing on a web server (a portable Apache build), testing through the web client, and recording video instructions. The skills give the model ready abstractions over 1C's XML formats and the configurator CLI, so it works with the task itself rather than implementation details, and web testing gives it eyes and hands to interact with the 1C interface directly.

Its skill groups: external data processors (EPF, 7 skills) and external reports (ERF, 4 skills) for creating, building, disassembling and validating them from XML sources; universal operations for adding or removing templates, forms and help across any object type; spreadsheet documents (MXL, 4 skills) for analyzing, creating and compiling print-form templates; managed forms (6 skills) for creating, analyzing, generating, modifying and validating them; roles (3 skills) for analyzing role permissions and creating them from a JSON DSL; data composition schemas (СКД, 4 skills) for analyzing, generating from a JSON DSL, and precisely editing composition schemas; configuration metadata (5 skills covering 23 object types) for creating, analyzing, editing, removing and validating metadata objects; root configuration (4 skills) for the configuration's root files; extensions (CFE, 5 skills) for creating, borrowing, intercepting methods in, validating and analyzing extensions; subsystems (4 skills) and command interface (2 skills) for a configuration's subsystem structure and its CommandInterface.xml; XDTO packages (5 skills) for analyzing, creating from an XML schema, exporting to a schema, and editing XDTO packages; databases (13 skills) for creating databases, loading/unloading configurations, updating a database, pulling from Git, managing a configuration repository and managing extensions in a database; web publishing (4 skills) for publishing, checking status, stopping and removing a database's web publication via Apache; and web testing (/web-test) for navigating the 1C web client, interacting with forms/tables/reports, recording narrated video instructions with subtitles and TTS, and running an automated regression suite of tests and checks after changes. A small utility (/img-grid) overlays a grid on an image to work out column proportions.

Installing as a Claude Code plugin:

/plugin marketplace add https://github.com/Nikolay-Shirokov/cc-1c-skills
/plugin install 1c-skills@cc-1c-skills        # PowerShell (Windows)
/plugin install 1c-skills-py@cc-1c-skills     # Python (Linux/Mac or if PS unavailable)

Installation copies .claude/skills/ into a project root, installs as a Claude Code or OpenAI Codex plugin, or runs switch.py in copy mode (an independent copy, updated by re-running) or link mode (a directory junction or symlink so git pull propagates updates automatically - experimental, Claude-Code-only, and may misbehave with Node.js-based skills like /web-test, since Node can resolve __dirname through the junction to the source path rather than the project directory). A Python runtime (3.9+, pip install -r requirements.txt for lxml, Pillow and psutil) substitutes for the default PowerShell runtime on Linux/Mac or when PowerShell isn't available, with identical script parameters between the two - only the interpreter changes. Once installed, describing a task in natural language auto-activates the matching skill via its description field; slash commands like /epf-init remain available for precise, explicit control.

A full specification index documents 44 metadata object types and their XML formats: the EPF/ERF export XML structure, the managed-form (Form.xml) and built-in help (Help.xml) formats, the 1C configurator's batch-mode CLI commands (1cv8.exe DESIGNER/ENTERPRISE/CREATEINFOBASE), the spreadsheet-document (MXL) XML format and its JSON DSL for /mxl-compile//mxl-decompile, the form JSON DSL for /form-compile, the role (Rights.xml) XML format and its JSON DSL, the data composition schema (DCS) XML format (930 schemas analyzed) and its JSON DSL for /skd-compile, the root configuration (Configuration.xml, ConfigDumpInfo.xml) format, the subsystem and command-interface XML format, the configuration-extension export format, and the web-publication format (VRD, httpd.conf, wsap24.dll, portable Apache).

Use it for developing on the 1C:Enterprise 8.3 platform with an AI agent - creating or editing configurations, extensions, external processors/reports, forms, roles, data composition schemas or metadata, and for loading, updating, publishing or web-testing a 1C information base.

It is built for Windows: PowerShell 5.1+ is the default runtime, and a Python runtime (below) covers Linux/Mac or machines without PowerShell. Building or disassembling EPF/ERF files needs 1C:Enterprise 8.3 itself, although the XML-generation skills work without the platform installed, and /web-test needs Node.js 18+.

It drives the 1C configurator directly through 1cv8.exe's DESIGNER/ENTERPRISE/CREATEINFOBASE batch-mode commands and publishes over a portable Apache build (httpd.conf, wsap24.dll), and its /web-test skill drives the 1C web client through a Node.js-based browser interaction layer. The skills are built on the open Agent Skills standard and are compatible with 13 platforms beyond Claude Code - Cursor, OpenAI Codex, GitHub Copilot, Augment, Cline, Kilo Code, Kiro, Gemini CLI, OpenCode, Roo Code, Windsurf, Yandex Code Assistant and the generic Agent Skills target - each with its own PowerShell and Python-runtime branch, auto-rebuilt on every change, or buildable locally via scripts/switch.py <platform>.
