Modern React component patterns with hooks and TypeScript. An agent skill from langchain-ai/skills-benchmarks.

  • Tasks that involve React components
  • SKILL.md covers Functional Components with Hooks, Custom Hooks and Component Composition
  • Instructions only: no scripts, shell commands, URLs or credentials in SKILL.md

What it does

React Components is an agent skill from langchain-ai/skills-benchmarks, published by the product's own GitHub organization. Modern React component patterns with hooks and TypeScript

Its SKILL.md is about 440 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Frontend & Design, covering React components. It works with TypeScript. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve React components

Example prompts

  • “/react-components”

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 9195f8c. 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 Components loads about 437 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 19 tokens; SKILL.md has 36 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~19
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~437

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

Build maintainable React components using modern patterns.

Functional Components with Hooks

Always prefer functional components over class components:

tsx
import { useState, useEffect, useCallback } from 'react';

interface UserProps {
  userId: string;
  onUpdate?: (user: User) => void;
}

export function UserProfile({ userId, onUpdate }: UserProps) {
  const [user, setUser] = useState<User | null>(null);
  const [loading, setLoading] = useState(true);

  useEffect(() => {
    fetchUser(userId).then(setUser).finally(() => setLoading(false));
  }, [userId]);

  const handleSave = useCallback(async (data: UserData) => {
    const updated = await updateUser(userId, data);
    setUser(updated);
    onUpdate?.(updated);
  }, [userId, onUpdate]);

  if (loading) return <Skeleton />;
  if (!user) return <NotFound />;

  return <UserForm user={user} onSave={handleSave} />;
}

Custom Hooks

Extract reusable logic into custom hooks:

tsx
function useAsync<T>(asyncFn: () => Promise<T>, deps: any[]) {
  const [state, setState] = useState<AsyncState<T>>({
    loading: true,
    error: null,
    data: null,
  });

  useEffect(() => {
    setState(s => ({ ...s, loading: true }));
    asyncFn()
      .then(data => setState({ loading: false, error: null, data }))
      .catch(error => setState({ loading: false, error, data: null }));
  }, deps);

  return state;
}

Component Composition

Use composition over prop drilling:

tsx
<Card>
  <Card.Header>Title</Card.Header>
  <Card.Body>{content}</Card.Body>
  <Card.Footer>
    <Button>Action</Button>
  </Card.Footer>
</Card>

Can I use React Components in Cursor, Gemini CLI or GitHub Copilot?

Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot and OpenCode also load SKILL.md folders. With the skills CLI, run `npx skills add langchain-ai/skills-benchmarks --skill react-components -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/react-components, .gemini/skills/react-components, .github/skills/react-components and .opencode/skills/react-components in your project.

What does React Components need to run?

SKILL.md names no scripts, command-line tools or credentials: React Components is instructions for the agent only.
