Defold Core

gamedev-skills/defold-core

Build and debug the core of a Defold game in Lua: game.project settings, collections, game objects and components, script lifecycle and self state, go.property, input focus and bindings, URLs and message passing, factories, collection factories and collection proxies, plus building and smoke-running with Bob.

What it changes

One test taskIn `game.project`, under the `[input]` section, we are linking our keybindings file `/input/controls.input_binding`. Bob throws an error stating it cannot find the file when compiling. What exact key-value line belongs in `game.project`?

Checks it passed that the model alone missed: 4

Specifies game_binding = /input/controls.input_bindingc with the compiled c extension.
Specifies inspecting logs specifically for ERROR:SCRIPT: or ERROR:GAMEOBJECT: indicators during runtime validation.
Explains that source paths under game.project bootstrap and input require an added trailing c in the file extension.

Your framework

Claude Code docs

No account or Python needed. Claude Code picks it up in its next session.

Save it into your project

curl -fsSL --create-dirs -o .claude/skills/gamedev-skills-defold-core/SKILL.md https://app.decimal.ai/s/gamedev-skills-defold-core/SKILL.md

Keep it pinned and updatable

pip install "decimalai>=0.15"
decimalai skills add gamedev-skills-defold-core
claude --plugin-dir "$(git rev-parse --show-toplevel)/.agents"

This gets SKILL.md only. The skill's 3 other files are not included. The other two ways bring them.

Type these in a Claude Code session. No account or API key. It writes the skill and any files it bundles, and asks first when its safety rating isn't Passed.

Add the DecimalAI plugin, once

/plugin marketplace add decimal-labs/decimalai-claude-plugins
/plugin install decimalai@decimalai

Install this skill

/decimalai:install gamedev-skills-defold-core

The plugin needs python3 and curl on your machine.

No tools at all. Claude Code picks it up in its next session.

Claude Agent SDK docs

agent_config() hands your agent the skill. With no DecimalAI key it reads your project's files and sends nothing. Needs SDK 0.27 or newer.

Install

pip install "decimalai[claude-agent-sdk]"
decimalai skills add gamedev-skills-defold-core

Add it to your agent

Prefer its own loader? ClaudeAgentOptions(plugins=[skills_plugin()], skills="all") reads the same folder. Use one or the other: a skill delivered both ways reaches the prompt twice.

The same install from Python, for a notebook or a setup script. agent_config() hands your agent the skill. With no DecimalAI key it reads your project's files and sends nothing. Needs SDK 0.27 or newer.

Google ADK docs

agent_config() hands your agent the skill. With no DecimalAI key it reads your project's files and sends nothing. Needs SDK 0.27 or newer.

Install

pip install "decimalai[adk]"
decimalai skills add gamedev-skills-defold-core

Add it to your agent

from decimalai.adk import DecimalAIPlugin, agent_config
from google.adk.agents import LlmAgent

# With no DECIMAL_API_KEY this reads the skills your project lists, from disk.
support = agent_config("support", fallback="You are a helpful agent.")

agent = LlmAgent(
    name="support",          # ADK needs a Python identifier
    model="gemini-3.5-flash",
    instruction=support.instruction,  # your prompt, then the skill list
    tools=[*support.tools],           # your tools, then load_skill
)
# DecimalAIPlugin makes each invocation of runners built from this App one trace.
app = App(name="support", root_agent=agent, plugins=[DecimalAIPlugin()])

Prefer ADK's own loader? SkillToolset(skills=decimalai.adk.skills(), ...) reads the same folder. Use one or the other: a skill delivered both ways reaches the prompt twice.

Install

pip install "decimalai[adk]"

Now try it

Give your agent this task. In testing, the model failed it without the skill and passed it with the skill.

In `game.project`, under the `[input]` section, we are linking our keybindings file `/input/controls.input_binding`. Bob throws an error stating it cannot find the file when compiling. What exact key-value line belongs in `game.project`?

What to look for

Specifies game_binding = /input/controls.input_bindingc with the compiled c extension.

The instructions your model reads when the skill loads.

Defold Core

Structure, wire and verify a Defold game: editor resource files, the Lua script lifecycle, addressing and messages, runtime spawning and world loading, and a Bob build-and-run check. Examples target Defold 1.14.0; they were built with Bob 1.14.0 and run on the 1.14.0 headless engine. An existing project keeps its Defold version (see Version).

When to use

Use when adding or fixing game objects, collections, scripts, input, messages, spawning or level loading in a Defold project (game.project in the root, .collection, .go, .script, .gui_script files), or when Bob reports a missing resource.

When not to use: plain Lua or LÖVE projects (love2d-core); GUI layout, sprites, tilemaps and physics depth beyond the pointers in the references; engine-agnostic design handled by the related skills below.

Workflow

Inspect first. Read game.project ([bootstrap] main_collection, [input] game_binding, [project] dependencies), the main collection, and the scripts near the request. Follow the project's folder layout, id naming and message names; do not reorganize. Note which Defold/Bob version CI or the team uses.
Edit the right file type. Game objects (.go) hold components; collections (.collection) place game objects and other collections; logic goes in .script (game objects), .gui_script (GUI) or shared .lua modules. Editor files are protobuf text: keep their structure, and copy shapes from references/file-formats.md instead of guessing fields.
Check references. Run python scripts/check_defold_project.py <project-dir> (path relative to this skill folder; Python 3.10+, no Defold install needed). Fix every ERROR (missing or wrong-case /paths, a game.project path without the compiled c suffix, a require whose file does not exist). Warnings cover files nothing uses yet, unfetched library dependencies and runtime-loaded files. Re-run until it exits 0.
Build with Bob. java -jar bob.jar --root . --variant headless --archive resolve build needs JDK 25 and a bob.jar matching the project's Defold version. Exit 1 plus an ERROR: line means a broken reference or a Lua syntax error (with file and line); references/file-formats.md shows how to trace an error that names a generated file.
Run it. A build does not prove the game works. Run a headless bundle under a timeout (references/build-and-run.md) and read the log: ERROR:SCRIPT: lines are Lua runtime errors, ERROR:GAMEOBJECT: lines bad addresses or socket clashes. Require a line your
