# Hotwire Turbo Drive, Frames & Streams Architecture

Implements Hotwire Turbo: Turbo Drive for accelerated link clicks, Turbo Frames for scoped partial page updates (<turbo-frame>), and Turbo Streams (<turbo-stream action='append'>) over WebSockets/SSE.

## When to Invoke
Invoke this skill whenever you need to:
- configure turbo frames
- turbo stream append html
- hotwire turbo drive

## Execution SOP & Rules
1. Include @hotwired/turbo in application bundle.
2. Wrap independent widgets: <turbo-frame id='comments_list'><a href='...'>Next</a></turbo-frame>.
3. Return stream responses with Content-Type: text/vnd.turbo-stream.html.
4. Emit stream actions: <turbo-stream action='append' target='messages'><template><div .../></template></turbo-stream>.

## Verification Checklist
- Run local linting, syntax validation, and type-checks before reporting completion.
- Ensure all created or modified files adhere to workspace boundaries and avoid uncommitted secrets.
- Verify tests or build commands exit cleanly with return code 0.
