What it does

Avalonia Layout Zafiro is an agent skill from davila7/claude-code-templates. Guidelines for modern Avalonia UI layout using Zafiro.Avalonia, emphasizing shared styles, generic components, and avoiding XAML redundancy.

Its SKILL.md is about 580 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 5 other files (for example `behaviors.md`, `components.md` and `containers.md`).

It works with Avalonia. The repository describes itself as: CLI tool for configuring and monitoring Claude Code. The licence is MIT.

Example prompts

  • “Use the avalonia-layout-zafiro skill to guideline for modern Avalonia UI layout using Zafiro.Avalonia, emphasizing shared styles, generic…”
  • “/avalonia-layout-zafiro”

Requirements

  • Pre-approved tools (allowed-tools): Read, Write, Edit, Glob, Grep

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 79182c5. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves these tools, so the agent can use them without asking each time:

    • Read
    • Write
    • Edit
    • Glob
    • Grep

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

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

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    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

Avalonia Layout Zafiro loads about 578 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 41 tokens; SKILL.md has 221 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~41
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~578

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.

Avalonia Layout with Zafiro.Avalonia

Master modern, clean, and maintainable Avalonia UI layouts. Focus on semantic containers, shared styles, and minimal XAML.

🎯 Selective Reading Rule

Read ONLY files relevant to the layout challenge!

📑 Content Map

FileDescriptionWhen to Read
themes.mdTheme organization and shared stylesSetting up or refining app themes
containers.mdSemantic containers (HeaderedContainer, EdgePanel, Card)Structuring views and layouts
icons.mdIcon usage with IconExtension and IconOptionsAdding and customizing icons
behaviors.mdXaml.Interaction.Behaviors and avoiding ConvertersImplementing complex interactions
components.mdGeneric components and avoiding nestingCreating reusable UI elements

For a real-world example, refer to the Angor project: /mnt/fast/Repos/angor/src/Angor/Avalonia/Angor.Avalonia.sln

✅ Checklist for Clean Layouts

  • Used semantic containers? (e.g., HeaderedContainer instead of Border with manual header)
  • Avoided redundant properties? Use shared styles in axaml files.
  • Minimized nesting? Flatten layouts using EdgePanel or generic components.
  • Icons via extension? Use {Icon fa-name} and IconOptions for styling.
  • Behaviors over code-behind? Use Interaction.Behaviors for UI-logic.
  • Avoided Converters? Prefer ViewModel properties or Behaviors unless necessary.

❌ Anti-Patterns

DON'T:

  • Use hardcoded colors or sizes (literals) in views.
  • Create deep nesting of Grid and StackPanel.
  • Repeat visual properties across multiple elements (use Styles).
  • Use IValueConverter for simple logic that belongs in the ViewModel.

DO:

  • Use DynamicResource for colors and brushes.
  • Extract repeated layouts into generic components.
  • Leverage Zafiro.Avalonia specific panels like EdgePanel for common UI patterns.
