epf-init — Claude Code skill: what it does, how to install
Scaffolds XML source files and directory structure for a new 1C external data processor. Helpful when starting an EPF project from scratch.
/plugin marketplace add Nikolay-Shirokov/cc-1c-skills
/plugin install 1c-skills@cc-1c-skillsWhat epf-init does
The skill generates an empty 1C external data processor structure in XML format, setting up the metadata root file and project folders. It accepts names in Latin or Cyrillic characters, a synonym, an output folder, and the metadata export format version. If omitted, files go into the src folder with format version 2.17.
Under the hood, it executes the scripts/init.ps1 PowerShell script, so powershell.exe must be accessible in your environment. Default version 2.17 targets 1C:Enterprise 8.3.24 and above. Specifying older formats like 2.16 for 8.3.23 triggers a warning because older runtimes were not verified. Once initialized, the source tree is ready for commands like /form-add or /epf-build.
What it helps with
- Scaffold XML source tree for a fresh 1C external data processor
- Configure root metadata with custom name and synonym
- Target the appropriate export format version for the 1C platform runtime
Example prompts for the agent
- /epf-init DataImport "Import from Excel"
- /epf-init ExportOrders "Export Orders" src 2.18

# /epf-init — Создание новой обработки
Генерирует минимальный набор XML-исходников для внешней обработки 1С: корневой файл метаданных и каталог обработки.
## Usage
```
/epf-init <Name> [Synonym] [SrcDir] [FormatVersion]
```
| Параметр | Обязательный | По умолчанию | Описание |
|---------------|:------------:|--------------|------------------------------------------------|
| Name | да | — | Имя обработки (латиница/кириллица) |
| Synonym | нет | = Name | Синоним (отображаемое имя) |
| SrcDir | нет | `src` | Каталог исходников относительно CWD |
| FormatVersion | нет | `2.17` | Версия формата выгрузки — см. ниже |
`FormatVersion` — **не выше** версии формата платформы, на которой объект будут собирать и открывать:
8.3.24 — `2.17`, 8.3.25 — `2.18`, 8.3.26 — `2.19`, 8.3.27 — `2.20`, 8.5 — `2.21`. Ниже брать можно:
платформа читает свой формат и любой более старый, поэтому дефолт `2.17` подходит для всей линейки
8.3.24 и выше. Для более старых платформ счёт идёт так же, по одной версии на релиз (8.3.23 — `2.16`),
но на них навыки не проверялись — такое значение принимается с предупреждением.
## Команда
```powershell
powershell.exe -NoProfile -File "${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/scripts/init.ps1" -Name "<Name>" [-Synonym "<Synonym>"] [-SrcDir "<SrcDir>"] [-FormatVersion "<версия>"]
```
## Дальнейшие шаги
- Добавить форму: `/form-add`
- Добавить макет: `/template-add`
- Добавить справку: `/help-add`
- Собрать EPF: `/epf-build`
