Strict design and UX rules for React 19 + Next.js 16 (App Router) + Tailwind CSS 4.

  • Works in 6 steps: Navigation (CRITICAL) → Interaction Design (CRITICAL) → Accessibility (CRITICAL) → …

  • SKILL.md covers Stack Contract, When to Apply, Rule Categories by Priority and Quick Reference, plus 2 more sections
  • Instructions only: no scripts, shell commands, URLs or credentials in SKILL.md

What it does

Web Rules is an agent skill from pproenca/dot-skills. Strict design and UX rules for React 19 + Next.js 16 (App Router) + Tailwind CSS 4. Covers navigation, interaction design, accessibility, user feedback, UX patterns, and visual design. Use when designing, building, or reviewing any user-facing web feature on this stack. Trigger when the user asks to "build a settings page", "add a dialog", "design this form", "review for accessibility", "fix dark mode", or any Next.js App Router / React 19 / Tailwind UI task. Also trigger when the user says output "looks off"…

Its SKILL.md is about 1.9k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 40 other files, including reference files and assets (for example `assets/templates/_template.md`, `metadata.json` and `references/_sections.md`).

It sits in Frontend & Design, covering Accessibility, UI design and CSS and styling. It works with Tailwind CSS, React and Next.js. The repository describes itself as: A collection of AI agent skills following the Agent Skills open format. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Reviewing any user-facing web feature on this stack
  • The user asks to build a settings page
  • Design this form
  • Review for accessibility

Example prompts

  • “build a settings page”
  • “add a dialog”
  • “design this form”
  • “/web-rules”

Workflow steps

6 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. Navigation (CRITICAL)
  2. Interaction Design (CRITICAL)
  3. Accessibility (CRITICAL)
  4. User Feedback (HIGH)
  5. UX Patterns (HIGH)
  6. Visual Design (HIGH)

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit cf93c57. 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.

    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

Web Rules loads about 1.9k tokens when it runs, and up to ~34k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 145 tokens; SKILL.md has 668 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~145
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.9k
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~34k

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.

description
Strict design and UX rules for React 19 + Next.js 16 (App Router) + Tailwind CSS 4. Covers navigation, interaction design, accessibility, user feedback, UX patterns, and visual design. Use when designing, building, or reviewing any user-facing web feature on this stack. Trigger when the user asks to "build a settings page", "add a dialog", "design this form", "review for accessibility", "fix dark mode", or any Next.js App Router / React 19 / Tailwind UI task. Also trigger when the user says output "looks off", "isn't accessible", or "doesn't follow best practices."

React 19 + Next.js 16 + Tailwind CSS Best Practices

Comprehensive strict-rules reference for web apps built on React 19, the Next.js 16 App Router, and Tailwind CSS 4. Contains 34 rules across 6 categories. Each rule is stated as an Always/Never directive with a quantified impact, an incorrect example, and a correct example.

Stack Contract

All guidance assumes:

  • React 19 with Server Components by default; Client Components only when interactivity is required ('use client' at the top)
  • Next.js 16 App Router with app/ directory, layout.tsx, page.tsx, loading.tsx, error.tsx, not-found.tsx, parallel routes, intercepting routes
  • Server Actions for mutations ('use server') — never useEffect for data fetching
  • Tailwind CSS 4 with the @theme directive, dark: variant, container queries, and the standard 4pt spacing scale
  • lucide-react as the canonical icon system
  • No CSS-in-JS (no styled-components, no emotion) — Tailwind utility classes only, with cn() from clsx + tailwind-merge for conditional classes
  • shadcn/ui primitives (Radix-based) preferred for dialogs, popovers, dropdowns, tooltips, toasts

When to Apply

Reference these rules when:

  • Building any user-facing route, layout, or component
  • Reviewing PRs for design / UX / accessibility regressions
  • Choosing between modality types (dialog vs popover vs full-page)
  • Implementing forms with Server Actions and useFormState / useOptimistic
  • Configuring loading and error boundaries
  • Designing onboarding, permissions, or settings flows
  • Ensuring dark mode, focus management, and keyboard navigation work end-to-end

Quick Reference

1. Navigation (CRITICAL)
  • nav-primary - Use top nav (3-7 sections) or sidebar; never hamburger-only on desktop
  • nav-app-router - Use App Router layouts, parallel routes, and <Link> for all internal navigation
  • nav-page-actions - Place primary actions in the page header; never bury them in scroll
2. Interaction Design (CRITICAL)
Show full SKILL.md (288 more words)Show less
3. Accessibility (CRITICAL)
4. User Feedback (HIGH)
5. UX Patterns (HIGH)
  • ux-onboarding - Onboarding never exceeds 3 screens; always skippable
  • ux-permissions - Request browser permissions in-context, not on page load
  • ux-modality - Choose dialog / popover / full-page by content weight; never stack modals
  • ux-destructive-confirmation - Destructive actions require a typed confirmation OR an undo window
  • ux-data-entry - Use Server Actions + progressive enhancement; never disable submit while typing
  • ux-undo - Prefer undo over confirmation for everyday actions
  • ux-settings - Settings are autosaved on change; never gated behind a Save button
6. Visual Design (HIGH)
  • vis-dark-mode - Use CSS custom properties + dark: variant; never hardcode text-black/bg-white
  • vis-icon-system - Use lucide-react with 1.5px stroke and size-4/size-5 standard sizes
  • vis-spacing - Use the Tailwind 4 pt scale and container queries; never use ad-hoc px margins

With the skills CLI, run `npx skills add pproenca/dot-skills --skill web-rules -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/web-rules, .gemini/skills/web-rules, .github/skills/web-rules and .opencode/skills/web-rules in your project.

What does Web Rules need to run?

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

Does Web Rules access the network?

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.

Is Web Rules safe to install?

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.

What licence does Web Rules use?

Web Rules is published under the MIT licence (the repository's licence). It allows redistribution, so the full SKILL.md is shown on this page.

How many tokens does Web Rules use?

About 1.9k tokens (SKILL.md is roughly 7.5k characters). Agents keep only the skill's name and description in context until a task matches; then they load SKILL.md in full. Its references folder adds about 32k tokens, read only when the agent opens those files.
