R Package Development

Use this skill when working with R packages to ensure proper development workflows, testing patterns, and documentation standards.

Development Workflow

• Use radian with R as an alias so call R scripts using Rscript
• Do not run devtools::test with grep; read the whole output

Package Building and Management

# Load package for interactive development
devtools::load_all()

# Update documentation (REQUIRED before committing R changes)
devtools::document()
