react — Build and diagnose React applications

Why Install This Skill

React projects accumulate framework-specific failure modes: hooks that resynchronize unnecessarily, stale requests that overwrite newer data, routes that break under a subpath, and Vite environment values accidentally shipped to browsers. This skill gives your agent a focused operating loop for those problems.

After installation, your agent can inspect a React/Vite project safely, make component and state changes that fit its existing conventions, protect accessible interaction states, and verify the result with the project's own checks. It also includes a read-only doctor for quick diagnostics without installing dependencies or exposing environment values.

What You Get

Directory Purpose
SKILL.md React-specific implementation workflow, guardrails, handoffs, and verification steps
references/component-and-state.md Component boundaries, hooks, effects, async state, and forms
references/vite-diagnostics.md Vite environment, build, asset-base, and deployment diagnostics
scripts/react-doctor.py Bounded Python diagnostic with human-readable or JSON output
scripts/test_react_doctor.py Offline tests for diagnostic behavior and safety guarantees
evals/evals.json Six substantive output-quality cases for React and Vite work

Quick Start

python3 scripts/react-doctor.py --json .
python3 scripts/react-doctor.py .

The doctor reads project files only. It does not install packages, run scripts, contact the network, or print environment values.

Triggers

Load this skill when working with React, JSX/TSX, hooks, React Router, Vite React configuration, React component/state implementation, or React build failures. Use it for a focused project diagnosis before editing.

Requirements

  • Python 3.8+ for the bundled diagnostic and tests.
  • Node.js and the project's package manager for application builds and tests.
  • Existing React/Vite project files; no API key is required.
  • Use frontend-engineering for framework-agnostic frontend architecture, playwright for browser automation, and web-accessibility for dedicated accessibility audits.
