## What it does

The skill executes `scripts/form-edit.ps1` via PowerShell to patch a target `Form.xml` using a JSON file. Elements preserve their `id` values during moves and edits. Because identifiers remain untouched, event handlers and form module references stay functional.

A single JSON payload can add, relocate, update, or delete interface elements, form attributes, commands, and properties. The `set` operation handles properties such as visibility or titles. It cannot change an element's type, data path, or button command binding; those require removing and recreating the element.

Event handlers are not written to `Module.bsl`. You need to add handler procedure bodies in the BSL module manually.

## Install

### Claude Code (native platform)

1. **Plugin marketplace**

This installs the whole 1c-skills plugin with all its skills

2. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add Nikolay-Shirokov/cc-1c-skills --skill form-edit -a claude-code
```

3. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `~/.claude/skills/form-edit/SKILL.md` — Copy the whole skill folder; for one project use .claude/skills/form-edit/

### Codex

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add Nikolay-Shirokov/cc-1c-skills --skill form-edit -a codex
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.agents/skills/form-edit/SKILL.md` — For all projects use ~/.agents/skills/

### Cursor

**Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.cursor/skills/form-edit/SKILL.md` — Cursor also reads .agents/skills/ and .claude/skills/

### GitHub Copilot

1. **GitHub CLI**

Where a file is given instead of a command, copy the files from the source to that path: https://github.com/Nikolay-Shirokov/cc-1c-skills/tree/HEAD/.claude/skills/form-edit/SKILL.md

## When to use it
- modify attributes and fields in an existing `Form.xml`
- move UI elements into new groups without resetting IDs
- delete obsolete form commands along with their associated buttons
- update visibility or title properties via JSON definitions

## Example prompts
- /form-edit ./Documents/Invoice/Forms/ItemForm/Ext/Form.xml ./patch.json
- Apply the UI layout changes from form-diff.json to Form.xml using /form-edit
- Update button actions and form properties in Form.xml via /form-edit with changes.json

# /form-edit — Правка формы

Точечно меняет существующий `Form.xml` по описанию правок в JSON; остальное в файле не трогает. Перенесённый или изменённый элемент сохраняет свой id — обработчики и обращения из модуля продолжают работать.

## Команда

| Параметр  | Обязательный | Описание                       |
|-----------|:------------:|--------------------------------|
| FormPath  | да           | Путь к существующему Form.xml  |
| JsonPath  | да           | Путь к JSON с описанием правок |

```powershell
powershell.exe -NoProfile -File "${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/scripts/form-edit.ps1" -FormPath "<путь>" -JsonPath "<путь>"
```

## Что можно править

| Ключ | Правка |
|------|--------|
| `elements` | Элементы: добавить, перенести, изменить, удалить — список операций, по порядку |
| `attributes` | Реквизиты: добавить; `{ "remove": "Имя" }` — удалить |
| `commands` | Команды: добавить; `{ "remove": "Имя" }` — удалить |
| `parameters` | Параметры формы: добавить; `{ "remove": "Имя" }` — удалить |
| `title` | Заголовок формы (строка или `{ru, en}`); `null` — убрать |
| `properties` | Свойства формы: `{ "windowOpeningMode": "LockOwnerWindow" }`; `null` у свойства — убрать (`references/form-properties.md`) |
| `events` | Обработчики событий формы: `{ "OnOpen": "ПриОткрытии" }` |
| `excludedCommands` | Исключить стандартные команды: `["Copy"]`; вернуть: `{ "remove": ["Copy"] }` |
| `conditionalAppearance` | Добавить правила условного оформления (`references/appearance.md`) |
| `commandInterface` | Добавить команды в панели формы (`references/command-interface.md`) |

Все ключи необязательны, в одной правке можно сочетать любые. Имена элементов, реквизитов и команд — из `/form-info`. Процедуры обработчиков в модуле формы не создаются — их добавляют в `Module.bsl` отдельно.
