Cometchat React Native Placement

What it does

When your agent uses it

• Tasks that involve Cross-platform mobile apps
• Tasks that involve Design systems

Example prompts

• “/cometchat-react-native-placement”

Requirements

• Node.js
• Compatibility (from SKILL.md): React Native >=0.77; @cometchat/chat-uikit-react-native ^5.4.0; @react-navigation/native ^7

Workflow steps

6 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

1. 1Two headers — headerShown: false on any screen using CometChatMessageHeader.
2. 2Message screen inside the tab navigator — tab bar overlaps the composer.
3. 3Side panels ported from web — push a screen instead.
4. 4NavigationContainer outside the providers — screens mount unthemed.
5. 5Hand-rolled back buttons — use the navigator's; wire onBack to navigation.goBack().
6. 6CometChatIncomingCall inside one screen — calls then only arrive on that screen.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 911b108. 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

  Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

  • npm
  • npx

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

• Network

  No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use npm and npx, which can reach the network depending on how they are called.

  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.

• Compatibility

  React Native >=0.77; @cometchat/chat-uikit-react-native ^5.4.0; @react-navigation/native ^7

  From compatibility in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

Context cost

Cometchat React Native Placement loads about 1.9k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 99 tokens; SKILL.md has 713 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it

~99

When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches

~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

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

Where the CometChat React Native UI Kit v5 surfaces go in a real app — one screen per route on a stack navigator, tab-based layouts, growing from the core surface to the full app, and embedding chat in an existing screen. Triggers: add a chat tab React Native, chat screen navigation RN, react-navigation CometChat, embed chat in my RN app, full chat app layout.
