What it does

Tailwindcss is an agent skill from nirholas/three.ws. Use when designing/implementing UI with Tailwind CSS (layout, typography, responsive, theming, component patterns). Includes quick recipes and conventions for clean, consistent web design.

Its SKILL.md is about 700 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 5 other files (for example `REFERENCES.md` and `demo/PROMPT.md`).

It sits in Frontend & Design, covering Theming and dark mode and Typography. It works with Tailwind CSS. The repository describes itself as: Open-source platform for 3D AI agents. Turn text or a photo into a rigged, animated GLB avatar, give it an LLM brain, memory and a wallet, and embed it anywhere with one web… The licence is Apache-2.0.

Workflow steps

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 238ef60. 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 html and javascript).
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

Tailwindcss loads about 702 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 50 tokens; SKILL.md has 198 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it: ~50
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches: ~702

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.

Tailwind CSS — Utility-first Styling Skill

When to use

Rapid UI building with consistent spacing/typography scales
Design systems where composition beats bespoke CSS
Component-driven apps (React/Vue/Svelte), marketing pages, prototypes → production

Key concepts & patterns

Utilities compose in HTML/JSX: class="flex gap-4 p-6 bg-zinc-950 text-white"
Responsive variants: sm: md: lg: xl: etc.
State variants: hover:, focus:, active:, disabled:, group-hover:, peer-checked:
Arbitrary values (use sparingly): w-[42rem], bg-[#0b1220], translate-y-[3px]
Dark mode patterns: dark: with class-based strategy
Extracting repeated patterns:
- Prefer components (JSX/Vue components) first
- Then @apply for small reusable patterns (avoid overuse)
Build pipeline:
- Tailwind scans “content” files for class names and generates CSS (zero-runtime)

Common pitfalls

Classes not generated in production
- Ensure content paths include all templates/components.
- Avoid building class names dynamically (e.g. "text-" + color) unless safelisted.
Overusing @apply and losing the utility-first benefits
Conflicting styles due to class order assumptions
Huge HTML class lists with no structure
- Use component composition; break into subcomponents; use clsx/cva when needed.

Quick recipes

1) A clean CTA button

html

<button class="inline-flex items-center justify-center rounded-xl px-5 py-3
               bg-indigo-600 text-white font-medium
               hover:bg-indigo-500 active:bg-indigo-700
               focus:outline-none focus:ring-2 focus:ring-indigo-400/60">
  Get started
</button>

2) Responsive hero layout

html

<section class="mx-auto max-w-6xl px-6 py-16">
  <div class="grid gap-10 lg:grid-cols-2 lg:items-center">
    <div>
      <h1 class="text-4xl font-semibold tracking-tight sm:text-5xl">
        Ship a beautiful site fast.
      </h1>
      <p class="mt-4 text-zinc-600">
        Tailwind helps you move quickly without fighting CSS.
      </p>
    </div>
    <div class="rounded-2xl border border-zinc-200 bg-white p-6 shadow-sm">
      <!-- media -->
    </div>
  </div>
</section>

3) Handling dynamic classnames safely

Prefer mapping:

const toneClass = {
  success: "bg-emerald-600",
  danger: "bg-rose-600",
  info: "bg-sky-600",
}[tone];

What to ask the user

Framework/build tool (Next/Vite/Remix/Webflow export)?
Do we need a design system (tokens, component library) or a one-off page?
Dark mode? RTL? accessibility constraints?
