Umbraco Property Action
This one generates Property Actions for Umbraco's backoffice, those little buttons that appear next to property labels when you want to add secondary functionality without touching the property editor itself. You'd use it for stuff like clearing values, transforming text, or opening pickers as shortcuts. The skill fetches current docs from Umbraco's site and generates both the manifest and action class. What's nice is the examples cover common patterns like reading property context, opening modals, and targeting specific editors versus all of them. It's straightforward scaffolding for a feature that's easy to overthink if you're doing it manually.

Umbraco Property Action
What is it?
Property Actions are buttons that appear next to property labels in the backoffice, providing secondary functionality for property editors. They expand to show available actions when clicked. Property Actions let you add auxiliary features to existing property editors without modifying the editors themselves - useful for shortcuts, transformations, or context-specific operations.
