What it does

Bevy Text is an agent skill from nolantait/bevy-starter. Reference for text rendering in Bevy — Text vs Text2d, styling, text spans, changing text at runtime, clicking text, and font rendering.

The repository describes itself as: A minimalist starter for bevy and rust. The licence is MIT.

Example prompts

“/bevy-text”

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit dd6f56b. 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 rust).
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

Bevy Text loads about 559 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 37 tokens; SKILL.md has 83 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it: ~37
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches: ~559

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.

Text vs Text2d

Component	Use case
`Text`	UI text (fixed position, in HUD/inventory)
`Text2d`	Scene text (floating damage, world-space labels)

Creating text

rust

// In scene
commands.spawn((
  Text2d::new("Hello"),
  TextFont::from(font_handle).with_font_size(FontSize::Px(60.0)),
  TextColor::WHITE,
  // `TextLayout::justify` only aligns the lines *within* the block of text.
  TextLayout::justify(Justify::Center),
  // Wrapping and truncation are controlled by `TextBounds`, not by the `Node`.
  TextBounds::new_horizontal(300.0),
  // `Anchor` controls where the text sits relative to its `Transform`.
  Anchor::TOP_LEFT,
  Text2dShadow::default(),
));

// In UI
commands.spawn((
  Node { position_type: PositionType::Absolute, bottom: px(5.0), right: px(5.0), ..default() },
  Text::new("Hello"),
  TextFont::from(font_handle),
));

Styling components

TextLayout — alignment, line break behavior
TextFont — font, font size (with_font_size(FontSize::Px(..)))
TextColor — color override
TextBounds — wrapping/truncation (not the Node)
Anchor — where text sits relative to its Transform (Text2d)
Text2dShadow — shadow rendering for Text2d

Multi-style text (TextSpan)

rust

commands.spawn((
  Text::new("Here is some text. But "),
  TextFont::from(regular_font),
  children![(
    TextSpan::new("this part is bold"),
    TextFont::from(bold_font),
  )],
));

Changing text at runtime

rust

fn update(mut texts: Query<&mut Text, With<ItemName>>) {
  for mut text in &mut texts {
    text.0 = "New text".to_string();
  }
}

Clicking text

rust

fn handle_click(event: On<Pointer<Click>>, mut query: Query<&mut Text2d>) {
  query.get_mut(event.entity).unwrap().0 = "Clicked!".to_string();
}

commands.spawn(Text2d::new("Click me")).observe(handle_click);

Font files

Supported: ttf, otf. Default font: Fira Mono. Load via AssetServer.

Bevy 0.19+ supports OpenType font features.
