What it does

Extend Prop Types is an agent skill from elementor/elementor. External: Add or extend a prop type from a third-party plugin. Description also covers transformers for render/import/export. PHP PropType, createPropUtils, atomic-widgets hooks.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.7k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It works with PHP. The repository describes itself as: The most advanced frontend drag & drop page builder. Create high-end, pixel perfect websites at record speeds. Any theme, any page, any design. The licence is GPL-3.0.

Example prompts

  • “/extend-prop-types”

Workflow steps

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

  1. Start with the prop type — storage shape, validation, JSON Schema (to_json_schema()). Add a transformer only when render/import/export…
  2. PHP prop type — extend a base from Elementor\Modules\AtomicWidgets\PropTypes\Base\ (Plain_Prop_Type, Object_Prop_Type, Array_Prop_Type)…
  3. Wire schema — pick one scope
  4. Register transformers when needed (priority 20+ to override core defaults at 10)

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit dd32c13. 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

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are php).

    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

Extend Prop Types loads about 1.7k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 49 tokens; SKILL.md has 447 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~49
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.7k

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
External: Add or extend a prop type from a third-party plugin. Description also covers transformers for render/import/export. PHP Prop_Type, createPropUtils, atomic-widgets hooks.

Extend prop types

Scope: External — the full documented outcome is shippable from a 3rd-party plugin via elementor/atomic-widgets/* schema and {context}/transformers/register hooks plus your own TS prop utils; no Core changes required. Changing the global prop vocabulary (core prop-types/) is Core-only. Full split + disclaimer: skills-scope.md.

Implementation location

  • PHP: existing or new third-party plugin repository; plugin-owned prop types and transformers (e.g. MyPlugin\PropTypes\, MyPlugin\Transformers\).
  • Editor TS: plugin-owned package/bundle registered through add-editor-package; mirror patterns from @elementor/editor-props.
  • Do not modify Elementor Core. Global vocabulary lives in modules/atomic-widgets/prop-types/ and packages/packages/libs/editor-props/src/prop-types/ — reference only.
  • Runnable reference: examples/example-plugin/ (Badge_Prop_Type + settings transformer).

Prerequisites

Read first: fundamentals/prop-types.md, fundamentals/transformers.md, fundamentals/validation.md, atomic-widgets/hooks.md.

Checklist

  1. Start with the prop type — storage shape, validation, JSON Schema (to_json_schema()). Add a transformer only when render/import/export needs a different output from the stored shape.
  2. PHP prop type — extend a base from Elementor\Modules\AtomicWidgets\PropTypes\Base\ (Plain_Prop_Type, Object_Prop_Type, Array_Prop_Type); primitives from PropTypes\Primitives\ (e.g. String_Prop_Type); unions via PropTypes\Union_Prop_Type::make()->add_prop_type() (use Union_Prop_Type::create_from( $existing ) to widen a key that is not already a union — see extend-variables step 2 for the already-a-union case). Implement get_key(), define_shape() (objects), validate_value(), sanitize_value(). Object validate_value(): each shape key in $value is a nested PropValue ($field['value']), not a plain scalar — see Html_V3_Prop_Type. Example: docs/atomic-builder/examples/extend-prop-types.md.
  3. Wire schema — pick one scope
    • Widget-only: define_props_schema() on the widget class (preferred for type-specific props).
    • Global: filter elementor/atomic-widgets/props-schema (all elements).
    • Style keys: filter elementor/atomic-widgets/styles/schema — style-schema.md.
  4. Register transformers when needed (priority 20+ to override core defaults at 10):
php
add_action( 'elementor/atomic-widgets/settings/transformers/register', function ( $registry ) {
    $registry->register( 'my-type', new My_Settings_Transformer() ); // key must match $$type
}, 20 );

Hook receives ( Transformers_Registry $registry, Props_Resolver $resolver ).

Contexts: settings, styles, import, export, plain — hook pattern:

elementor/atomic-widgets/{context}/transformers/register

Note: plain is registered in Core (elementor/atomic-widgets/plain/transformers/register in modules/atomic-widgets/module.php) alongside settings, styles, import, and export — valid even though hooks.md omits it from its list.

  1. TypeScript mirror (when editor validation/UI needs it) — createPropUtils() + propTypeToJsonSchema() in your editor package init(). There is no global editor registry like registerVariableType — unlike variables, general prop types rely on custom controls (elementor/atomic-widgets/controls filter) and/or your package exports.
  2. If this prop type is used in styles — legacy CSS import also needs internal-extend-css-converter (Internal; no public discovery hook). Style schema + transformer alone do not cover import.
  3. Editor controls — match control to prop shape (e.g. Select_Control for enums); filter elementor/atomic-widgets/controls when built-ins are insufficient.
  4. MCP — filter elementor/atomic-widgets/llm-json-schema to post-process single-prop JSON Schema.
  5. Verify — PropValue { $$type, value }; transformer receives inner payload; chained transform depth ≤ 3; disabled: true → null.

Object prop type skeleton

php
use Elementor\Modules\AtomicWidgets\PropTypes\Base\Object_Prop_Type;
use Elementor\Modules\AtomicWidgets\PropTypes\Primitives\String_Prop_Type;

class My_Object_Prop_Type extends Object_Prop_Type {
    public static function get_key(): string {
        return 'my-object';
    }

    protected function define_shape(): array {
        return [
            'label' => String_Prop_Type::make(),
        ];
    }

    protected function validate_value( $value ): bool {
        // Each $value['label'] is ['$$type' => 'string', 'value' => '...'] — not a bare string.
        return parent::validate_value( $value );
    }
}

Transformer skeleton

php
class My_Transformer extends \Elementor\Modules\AtomicWidgets\PropsResolver\Transformer_Base {
    public function transform( $value, \Elementor\Modules\AtomicWidgets\PropsResolver\Props_Resolver_Context $context ) {
        return +$value['size'] . $value['unit']; // inner PropValue payload, not full envelope
    }
}

External implementation path

  • Own PHP classes in the plugin; hook elementor/atomic-widgets/* filters/actions.
  • Own TS prop utils in editor package; plain-value resolvers: elementor/atomic-widgets/settings-resolvers/register.

Core reference paths (do not edit)

  • Global vocabulary → modules/atomic-widgets/prop-types/ + packages/packages/libs/editor-props/src/prop-types/.
  • Union wrapping: Prop_Types_Schema_Extender (dynamic tags, variables).
