Use this skill when building RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation) systems with BoxLang AI: aiDocuments() for loading and chunking documents, aiEmbed() for embeddings, vector memory providers, ingesting documents into vector stores, and wiring RAG into agents.
Use this skill for CSRF (Cross-Site Request Forgery) protection in BoxLang web apps: CSRFGenerateToken(), CSRFVerifyToken(), CSRFHiddenField(), CSRFRotate(), token scoping with keys, auto-verification, token expiration, and boxlang.json configuration.
Use this skill when configuring AI models with aiModel(): selecting providers, setting default parameters, structured output schemas, working with the service BIF aiService(), and pre-configuring providers in module settings.

Use this skill when implementing memory in BoxLang AI: aiMemory() types (windowed, summary, session, file, cache, JDBC, vector), multi-tenant isolation with userId and conversationId, using memory with agents and pipelines, and choosing the right memory type.
Use this skill when building AI agents with aiAgent(): instructions, custom models, tools, skills (always-on and lazy), MCP servers, memory, fluent configuration, multi-agent hierarchies, streaming, and agent middleware.
Use this skill when creating, extracting, listing, or modifying ZIP archives in BoxLang using the bx:zip component: compressing directories or files, filtering entries, reading archive contents, downloading files as a ZIP, or building backup/restore workflows.

Use this skill for OWASP ESAPI encoding, decoding, and HTML sanitization in BoxLang: encodeFor(), encodeForHTML(), encodeForJavaScript(), encodeForSQL(), encodeForURL(), decodeFrom(), htmlSanitize() with AntiSamy, and context-aware output encoding to prevent XSS/injection.
Use this skill when writing, running, or debugging tests for BoxLang applications using TestBox: BDD-style describe/it specs, xUnit-style test classes, expectations (expect/toBe matchers), assertions ($assert), life-cycle methods (beforeAll/afterAll/beforeEach/afterEach/aroundEach), MockBox mocking (createMock/prepareMock/$()/$results()), mock data generation (mockData()), async testing, exception testing, focused/skipped specs, attaching files to specs (attach()), spec retries (it retries argument, retries annotation, --retries), rerunning failures with --failed, and running tests via the BoxLang CLI runner. For browser tests (BrowserSpec, BrowserTestCase) also load bx-playwright-testing.
