Builds the visual layer of a holaOS dashboard app with TanStack Start and @holaboss/ui, starting from a bundled reference instead of a blank page.

  • Works in 2 steps: Copy the bundled reference. Don't… → Two style imports, not one.…
  • A holaOS app needs a dashboard, list view, kanban or calendar pane
  • SKILL.md covers When to use, The two non-negotiables, The shape catalog — pick one and Foundation — paste verbatim…, plus 11 more sections
  • Runs TypeScript scripts from its folder; calls bun, just and curl

What it does

The skill builds the src/client interface of a holaOS app once its data is already declared through the SDK. Its premise is that agents starting from a blank page produce generic dashboards, so the visual decisions are made in advance and the agent mostly supplies data and copy. It applies when someone asks for a dashboard, workspace pane, list view, kanban or calendar.

Two rules matter most. Copy the bundled reference in reference/messaging-dashboard/src/client rather than inventing a layout, and import two stylesheets, because @holaboss/ui/styles.css only includes utilities used inside the library, so the app needs its own Tailwind compile pass; a register-time lint rejects apps without it. The agent then picks one of five shapes by looking at the data: queue or feed (most apps), dense table, kanban, detail or form, and calendar week. The reference ships a header bar, connection pill, messages table and status badge, with sample data and routes.

Integration-only modules that use just the SDK skill, marketing landing pages and one-off static HTML reports are out of scope. The excerpt is cut off after the shape catalog.

When your agent uses it

  • A holaOS app needs a dashboard, list view, kanban or calendar pane
  • Choosing the right dashboard shape for an app's data
  • Adding a src/client interface to an app whose SDK resources are already wired

Example prompts

  • “Build the dashboard UI for my scheduled-posts app now that its SDK resources are declared.”
  • “Turn this CRM contact list into a dense table view in the app's client.”
  • “Make a kanban view for the ticket statuses.”

Requirements

  • A holaOS app with resources declared through the app-builder-sdk skill
  • TanStack Start and @holaboss/ui in the app

Workflow steps

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

  1. Copy the bundled reference. Don't invent. reference/messaging-dashboard/src/client/ is the canonical starting point. Three files below are…
  2. Two style imports, not one. @holaboss/ui/styles.css only bakes in utilities used inside the library. Every Tailwind class your src/client/…

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 4684714. 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:

    • bun
    • just
    • curl

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

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use curl, 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.

Context cost

Dashboard Builder for holaOS loads about 6.3k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 68 tokens; SKILL.md has 1,653 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~68
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~6.3k

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.

SKILL.md

Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 1,653 words (~6,335 tokens).

“The agent before you reliably produces ugly dashboards because it starts from a blank page and reaches for default shapes (single-column full-width cards, KPI strips that don't fit, sidebars that don't earn their space). This skill exists to bypass that…”
