Svelte is an agent skill from Mindrally/skills. Modern Svelte 5 and SvelteKit development covering runes-based reactivity, snippets, SSR/SSG, and state management, including migration notes from legacy Svelte 4 syntax. Use when writing or reviewing Svelte components, deciding between runes and legacy reactive statements, building SvelteKit routes and load functions, or migrating a Svelte 4 codebase to Svelte 5.
Its SKILL.md is about 1.2k 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 State management. It works with Svelte and SvelteKit. The repository describes itself as: 265+ Claude Code skills for every major framework and language. Install with: npx skills add Mindrally/skills. The licence is Apache-2.0.
4 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 7682ca7. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
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.
No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are svelte).
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
No URLs in SKILL.md.
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Svelte loads about 1.2k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 93 tokens; SKILL.md has 477 words of instructions outside code blocks.
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.
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.

.claude/skills/svelte/SKILL.md (or your agent's skills folder).This skill covers Svelte and SvelteKit development with deep knowledge of SSR, SSG, and modern web patterns, including the Svelte 5 runes system and how it differs from legacy Svelte 4 reactivity.
Svelte 5 introduces runes — compiler-level primitives that make reactivity explicit, replacing Svelte 4's implicit let/$: reactivity.
$state for reactive state (replaces plain let bindings that needed reactivity)$derived for computed values (replaces $: computed = ...)$effect for side effects (replaces $: { ... } blocks)$props for component properties (replaces export let prop)$bindable for two-way bindable props (replaces implicit bind: support on exported props)$inspect during development to log reactive value changesimport { $state } from 'svelte'. Only import genuine utilities that still require it, such as tick, untrack, mount, or unmount.Svelte 4 (legacy reactivity):
<script>
let count = 0;
$: double = count * 2;
$: {
if (count > 10) alert('Too high!');
}
</script>
<button on:click={() => count++}>{count} / {double}</button>Svelte 5 (runes):
<script>
let count = $state(0);
let double = $derived(count * 2);
$effect(() => {
if (count > 10) alert('Too high!');
});
</script>
<button onclick={() => count++}>{count} / {double}</button>Key differences to apply when writing or reviewing components:
$state() marks reactive variables, $derived() replaces $: for computed values, $effect() replaces $: {} blocks for side effects.onclick={handler}) instead of Svelte-specific directives (on:click={handler}). There are no more event modifiers like |preventDefault; call e.preventDefault() inline instead: onclick={e => { e.preventDefault(); handler(e); }}.let { propName } = $props() instead of multiple export let propName declarations. Mark a prop bindable from the parent with $bindable().{#snippet name(params)}...{/snippet} and {@render name(args)} reduce duplication and are more composable than named slots. Existing <slot> usage still works but prefer snippets in new Svelte 5 code.When maintaining an existing Svelte 4 codebase, keep using export let, on:event, and $: reactive statements consistently within that codebase rather than mixing paradigms — full-file migrations to runes should be deliberate, not incidental.

Svelte is an agent skill from Mindrally/skills. Modern Svelte 5 and SvelteKit development covering runes-based reactivity, snippets, SSR/SSG, and state management, including migration notes from legacy Svelte 4 syntax.
Svelte fits situations like: reviewing Svelte components; deciding between runes and legacy reactive statements; building SvelteKit routes and load functions; migrating a Svelte 4 codebase to Svelte 5.
Run `npx skills add Mindrally/skills --skill svelte -a claude-code`. Or copy the skill folder (svelte in Mindrally/skills) into .claude/skills/svelte in your project. Claude Code loads it when a task matches its description.
Run `npx skills add Mindrally/skills --skill svelte -a codex`. Or copy the skill folder (svelte in Mindrally/skills) into .agents/skills/svelte in your project. Codex loads it when a task matches its description.
Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot and OpenCode also load SKILL.md folders. With the skills CLI, run `npx skills add Mindrally/skills --skill svelte -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/svelte, .gemini/skills/svelte, .github/skills/svelte and .opencode/skills/svelte in your project.
SKILL.md names no scripts, command-line tools or credentials: Svelte is instructions for the agent only.
SKILL.md contains no URLs. Any network use would come from the scripts or tools the agent runs. This is read from the text; nothing was executed.
Our automated static check of SKILL.md found no risky patterns, such as piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files or hidden Unicode. It is not a guarantee. Review the folder before installing.
Svelte is published under the Apache-2.0 licence (the repository's licence). It allows redistribution, so the full SKILL.md is shown on this page.
About 1.2k tokens (SKILL.md is roughly 4.8k characters). Agents keep only the skill's name and description in context until a task matches; then they load SKILL.md in full.
Skills that share tags, products or a category with Svelte: Svelte Core Best Practices (rilldata/rill, 2.9k stars), GSAP in Vue, Nuxt and Svelte (greensock/gsap-skills, 16k stars), Svelte Code Writer (kampsy/ui, 288 stars) and Kampsy UI (kampsy/ui, 288 stars). The comparison table on this page puts their stars, adoption, token cost, safety result and licence side by side.
