What it does

Buzzform is an agent skill from buildnbuzz/buzzform. Use when working with BuzzForm schema-driven forms, @buildnbuzz/form-core, @buildnbuzz/form-react, or any related APIs like defineSchema, InferType, FormProvider, useDataField, useLayoutField, RenderFields, extractDefaults, registry-based rendering, validation, conditions, or dynamic behavior. Also use for migration from deprecated @buildnbuzz/buzzform. Activate this skill whenever the user mentions BuzzForm, form schemas, form registries, TanStack Form integration with BuzzForm, conditional fields…

Its SKILL.md is about 1.5k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 13 other files, including reference files (for example `evals/evals.json`, `evals/trigger_eval.json` and `examples/onboarding.test.ts`).

It sits in Frontend & Design, covering Forms and validation and React components. It works with React, Zod, TanStack and shadcn/ui. The repository describes itself as: BuzzForm: A simple, customizable React form library for shadcn/ui and Next.js. Declare fields once, fully control rendering, and get live validation + server actions with minimal… The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Working with BuzzForm schema-driven forms
  • @buildnbuzz/form-core
  • @buildnbuzz/form-react
  • Any related APIs like defineSchema

Example prompts

  • “t say”
  • “explicitly, use this skill if they”
  • “/buzzform”

Requirements

  • Node.js

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit dd172be. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Ships script files (TypeScript), which the agent can run.

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • pnpm
    • npx

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    Hosts in commands or code, which the agent is likely to contact:

    • form.buildnbuzz.com
    • countriesnow.space

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Buzzform loads about 1.5k tokens when it runs, and up to ~1.9k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 223 tokens; SKILL.md has 218 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~223
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.5k
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~1.9k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

description
Use when working with BuzzForm schema-driven forms, `@buildnbuzz/form-core`, `@buildnbuzz/form-react`, or any related APIs like `defineSchema`, `InferType`, `FormProvider`, `useDataField`, `useLayoutField`, `RenderFields`, `extractDefaults`, registry-based rendering, validation, conditions, or dynamic behavior. Also use for migration from deprecated `@buildnbuzz/buzzform`. Activate this skill whenever the user mentions BuzzForm, form schemas, form registries, TanStack Form integration with BuzzForm, conditional fields, `$data`/`$context` dynamic values, or field type configuration. Even if the user doesn't say "BuzzForm" explicitly, use this skill if they're working in a project that imports from `@buildnbuzz/*` packages. Do NOT trigger for raw TanStack Form usage without BuzzForm, drag-and-drop form builders, or other form libraries like Formik, React Hook Form, or Zod.

BuzzForm

Use @buildnbuzz/form-react. The old @buildnbuzz/buzzform package is deprecated.

Quick Start

Install

bash
pnpm add @buildnbuzz/form-react
npx shadcn@latest add @buzzform/all

Add "@buzzform": "https://form.buildnbuzz.com/r/{name}.json" to registries in components.json first.

Provider setup (recommended — app root)

tsx
import { FormProvider } from "@buildnbuzz/form-react";
import { registry } from "@/components/buzzform/registry";

// In layout.tsx
<FormProvider registries={{ fields: registry }}>{children}</FormProvider>;

Define schema + render form

tsx
import { defineSchema, type InferType } from "@buildnbuzz/form-react";
import {
  Form,
  FormContent,
  FormFields,
  FormSubmit,
} from "@/components/buzzform/form";

const schema = defineSchema({
  fields: [
    {
      type: "text",
      name: "name",
      label: (
        <span className="flex items-center gap-1.5">
          Name
          <Tooltip>
            <TooltipTrigger render={<InfoIcon className="size-4" />} />
            <TooltipContent>Your full legal name.</TooltipContent>
          </Tooltip>
        </span>
      ),
      required: true,
    },
    { type: "email", name: "email", label: "Email", required: true },
  ],
});

type FormData = InferType<typeof schema.fields>;

export function ContactForm() {
  return (
    <Form
      schema={schema}
      onSubmit={({ value }) => console.log(value as FormData)}
    >
      <FormContent>
        <FormFields />
        <FormSubmit>Submit</FormSubmit>
      </FormContent>
    </Form>
  );
}

Key Concepts

  • Use defineSchema from @buildnbuzz/form-react (NOT @buildnbuzz/form-core) to enable ReactNode (JSX) in labels/descriptions.
  • Unified Expressions (Expr<T>): Unified system for all dynamic field properties (label, disabled, condition, etc.).
    • $data / $context / $args: JSON Pointer paths (starts with /).
    • $text: String interpolation (e.g., { $text: "Hello ${/name}" }, supports ${/args/min}).
    • $when: Ternary logic (e.g., { $when: condition, $then: a, $else: b }).
    • $fn: Registry calls (e.g., { $fn: "calc", args: { x: 1 } }).
  • FormRegistries: Unify components (fields), validators, and functions (fns) into one object on FormProvider or Form.
  • Preference Rule: Prioritize registry functions ($fn) over inline functions (ctx) => T for complex logic to maintain JSON serializability. Use inline functions only if explicitly requested.
  • Inference: InferType for primitive: true arrays produces flat arrays (string[]) if the child name is empty or omitted.
  • condition unmounts the field; hidden hides UI but keeps data/validation.
  • Option Resolvers enable async option loading. Reference via { resolver: "key" } in options.

Imports

ts

  defineSchema,
  type InferType,

  FormFields,
  FormActions,
  FormSubmit,
  FormReset,

} from "@/components/buzzform/form";
import { registry } from "@/components/buzzform/registry";

Read These When Needed

  • Complete example with every feature: examples/onboarding.ts (tested in examples/onboarding.test.ts)
  • Cascading dropdowns with async options: registry/shadcn/examples/country-state-form.tsx
  • Schema & field types: rules/schema.md
  • Validation: rules/validation.md
  • Dynamic behavior ($data, $context, conditions): rules/dynamic.md
  • Rendering & custom fields: rules/rendering.md
  • Migration from deprecated package: references/migration.md

Option Resolver Quick Example

tsx
const resolvers = defineOptionResolvers({
  listCountries: async () => {
    const res = await fetch("https://countriesnow.space/api/v0.1/countries");
    const json = await res.json();
    return json.data.map((c: { country: string }) => ({
      label: c.country,
      value: c.country,
    }));
  },
  listStates: async ({ data }) => {
    if (!data.country) return [];
    const res = await fetch(`/api/states?country=${data.country}`);
    const json = await res.json();
    return json.states.map((s: { name: string }) => ({
      label: s.name,
      value: s.name,
    }));
  },
});

const schema = defineSchema({
  fields: [
    { type: "select", name: "country", options: { resolver: "listCountries" } },
    {
      type: "select",
      name: "state",
      options: { resolver: "listStates" },
      dependencies: ["/country"], // auto re-fetches + clears value
    },
  ],
});

<Form schema={schema} optionResolvers={resolvers}>
  <FormContent>
    <FormFields />
    <FormSubmit />
  </FormContent>
</Form>;
