What it does

React Component Patterns is an agent skill from HoangNguyen0403/agent-skills-standard. Build modern React component architecture with composition patterns. Use when designing reusable React components, applying composition patterns, or structuring component hierarchies.

Its SKILL.md is about 680 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 5 other files, including reference files (for example `evals/evals.json`, `references/REFERENCE.md` and `references/patterns.md`).

It sits in Frontend & Design, covering React components and Design patterns. It works with React. The repository describes itself as: A collection of Agent Skills Standard and Best Practice for Programming Languages, Frameworks that help our AI Agent follow best practies on frameworks and programming laguages. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Designing reusable React components
  • Applying composition patterns
  • Structuring component hierarchies

Example prompts

  • “/react-component-patterns”

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 266fd75. 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 typescript).

    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

React Component Patterns loads about 676 tokens when it runs, and up to ~1.6k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 52 tokens; SKILL.md has 253 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~52
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~676
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~1.6k

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.

React Component Patterns

Priority: P0 (CRITICAL)

Implementation Guidelines

  • Architecture (default): Composition first — children/named slot props for layout, Compound Components (e.g., <Select><Select.Option /></Select>) via Context for implicit shared state within one UI unit. Reach for Higher-Order Components or classic Render Props (render={(data) => ...}) only when composition can't express it (e.g. wrapping a third-party class component) — hooks cover most cross-cutting concerns HOCs used to.
  • React 19: ref is a regular prop on function components — no forwardRef needed for new code. Use use(promise) / use(context) to read a promise or context conditionally in render instead of useContext + extra useEffect plumbing.
  • Components: Distinguish between Controlled (state from props) and Uncontrolled (local useRef state) components. Favor controlled for form validation.
  • Props: Use Explicit TS interfaces. Avoid Prop Drilling by leveraging Context API or Zustand for global/deeply nested state.
  • Boolean Props: Shorthand <Cmp isVisible /> vs isVisible={true}.
  • Conditionals: Ternary (Cond ? <A/> : <B/>) over && for rendering consistency (prevents 0 rendering).
  • Function Components: Only hooks. No classes. Small size (<250 lines). One component per file.
  • Exports: Named exports only. PascalCase naming.
tsx
function ThemedInput({ ref, ...props }: { ref?: React.Ref<HTMLInputElement> } & InputProps) {
  return <input ref={ref} className={useTheme().input} {...props} />;
}

Verify

  • Shared implicit state uses Compound Components + Context, not prop drilling.
  • ref passed as a plain prop (no forwardRef) on components targeting React 19.
  • HOC/classic render-props only where composition genuinely can't express the wrap.

Anti-Patterns

  • No Classes: Use hooks.
  • No Prop Drilling: Use Context/Zustand.
  • No Nested Definitions: Define components at top level.
  • No Index Keys: Use stable IDs.
  • No forwardRef on new React 19 code: Accept ref as a normal prop instead.
