What it does

Create Table Hook is an agent skill from octanejs/octane. Build reusable React table infrastructure with createTableHook, useAppTable, createAppColumnHelper, shared features/defaults, component registries, AppTable/AppCell/AppHeader wrappers, and typed context hooks. Load for recurring application table conventions, scoped contexts, HMR cycles, or table prop drilling.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.4k 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 Development. It works with React. The repository describes itself as: React’s programming model, compiled. The successor to Inferno. The licence is MIT.

Example prompts

“/create-table-hook”

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 35eb3c7. 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
Hosts in commands or code, which the agent is likely to contact:
- github.com
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

Create Table Hook loads about 1.4k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 83 tokens; SKILL.md has 293 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it: ~83
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches: ~1.4k

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.

This skill builds on @tanstack/table-core#core, getting-started, and table-state. Use a factory when multiple tables share real conventions; use standalone useTable for a one-off.

Setup

tsx

import {
  createTableHook,
  rowSelectionFeature,
  tableFeatures,
} from '@tanstack/react-table'

export const { createAppColumnHelper, useAppTable, useTableContext } =
  createTableHook({
    features: tableFeatures({ rowSelectionFeature }),
    getRowId: (row: { id: string }) => row.id,
  })

Keep this factory in an infrastructure module. It binds feature types and defaults once while each useAppTable call still supplies its own data, columns, state, and initial state.

Core Patterns

Infer columns through the bound helper

tsx

type Person = { id: string; name: string }
const helper = createAppColumnHelper<Person>()
const columns = helper.columns([helper.accessor('name', { header: 'Name' })])

function People({ data }: { data: Person[] }) {
  const table = useAppTable({ data, columns })
  return (
    <table.AppTable>
      <div>{table.getRowModel().rows.length}</div>
    </table.AppTable>
  )
}

AppTable takes ordinary JSX children when it has no selector. Function children are only valid with a selector:

tsx

<table.AppTable selector={(state) => state.rowSelection}>
  {(rowSelection) => <output>{Object.keys(rowSelection).length}</output>}
</table.AppTable>

Read registered context instead of drilling props

tsx

function RowCount() {
  const table = useTableContext()
  return <output>{table.getRowModel().rows.length}</output>
}

Isolate genuinely nested table setups

The default module-scoped contexts are HMR-stable, and normal provider scoping already isolates sibling tables. Separate createTableHook calls still use those shared default contexts, so nested providers can silently resolve a consumer to the inner table. Create scoped contexts only when different table setups are nested:

tsx

import {
  createTableHook,
  createTableHookContexts,
  rowSelectionFeature,
  tableFeatures,
} from '@tanstack/react-table'

const features = tableFeatures({ rowSelectionFeature })
const { tableContext, cellContext, headerContext } =
  createTableHookContexts<typeof features>()

export const app = createTableHook({
  features,
  tableContext,
  cellContext,
  headerContext,
})

Prefer context hooks returned by createTableHook; they include the registered component maps in their types. Hooks returned directly by createTableHookContexts know only TFeatures and are useful from modules that cannot import the completed factory.

Common Mistakes

MEDIUM Factory for a one-off table

Wrong:

tsx

const { useAppTable } = createTableHook({ features: tableFeatures({}) })

Correct:

tsx

const table = useTable({ features: tableFeatures({}), columns, data })

A factory adds an app-wide abstraction; standalone construction is clearer without shared conventions.

Source: docs/framework/react/guide/composable-tables.md

HIGH Creating the factory during render

Wrong:

tsx

function People() {
  const app = createTableHook({ features })
  const table = app.useAppTable({ data, columns })
  return (
    <table.AppTable>
      <div />
    </table.AppTable>
  )
}

Correct:

tsx

const app = createTableHook({ features })
function People() {
  const table = app.useAppTable({ data, columns })
  return (
    <table.AppTable>
      <div />
    </table.AppTable>
  )
}

Creating a new factory closure during render makes hook configuration and component registries unstable. Keep the factory and its bound hook identity at module scope.

Source: packages/react-table/src/createTableHook.tsx

HIGH Closing a circular HMR import

Wrong:

tsx

// table.ts imports RowCount; RowCount.tsx imports useTableContext from table.ts
export const app = createTableHook({ features, tableComponents: { RowCount } })

Correct:

tsx

// components.tsx receives the exported hook through a cycle-free module boundary
export const app = createTableHook({ features })

Keep the factory dependency graph acyclic or inject components from a separate composition root; circular registries can break Vite HMR.

Source: https://github.com/TanStack/table/issues/6348

API Discovery

Inspect node_modules/@tanstack/react-table/dist/createTableHook.d.ts and createTableHookContexts.d.ts for the exact returned helpers, component registries, wrapper props, and scoped context types.
