description: Create a new GitHub repo from instructa/astro-website-starter using gitpick, initialize git, and push to GitHub. Use when asked to spin up a new Astro static/SSR site starter from instructa/astro-website-starter, set repo visibility/owner, and then configure Alchemy.

Create New Static Website

Workflow

1) Collect inputs (ask first)
- Project folder name (for npx gitpick instructa/astro-website-starter <name>)
- GitHub owner/org + repo name
- Visibility: public or private
- Whether to push immediately after init (default: yes)

2) Scaffold from template
- From ~/projects, run:
- npx gitpick instructa/astro-website-starter <project-name>
- cd <project-name>
- If folder exists, ask to rename or delete (use trash).

3) Initialize git + create GitHub repo
- git init
- git add -A
- git commit -m "feat: init"
- gh repo create <owner>/<repo> --public|--private --source . --remote origin --push
- If user says no push: omit --push and inform them how to push later.

4) Alchemy config (ask after repo creation)
- Ask if they want to configure Alchemy now.
- If yes:
- cp .env.example .env
- Set ALCHEMY_PASSWORD in .env (ask for value or instruct user to set).
- pnpm exec alchemy login
- Confirm any Cloudflare/Alchemy prompts and ensure pnpm run dev works.

Notes

• Keep commands non-interactive when possible.
• Use gh for repo creation.
• Don’t delete without confirmation (use trash).
