What it does

Bento UI is an agent skill from sickn33/agentic-awesome-skills. Web and App implementation guide for Bento UI. Trigger when user wants modular grid cards, Apple-like dashboard style, or sections arranged like a bento box.

Its SKILL.md is about 2.7k 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 Mobile, covering Cross-platform mobile apps. It works with Flutter. The repository describes itself as: AAS Core is the local, agent-first control plane for complete catalog discovery, agent-owned selection, stack validation, and planning, backed by 2,400+ agentic skills. Includes… The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • User wants modular grid cards
  • Apple-like dashboard style
  • Sections arranged like a bento box

Example prompts

  • “/bento-ui”

Workflow steps

3 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Strict Grid Structure: The entire UI is built on a responsive, multi-column grid (usually 3x3, 4x4, or irregular masonry).
  2. Rounded Compartments: Every distinct piece of content lives inside a card (compartment) with consistent, usually large, border-radius.
  3. Equal Spacing: The gap between compartments must be perfectly consistent everywhere.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 680176d. 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

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • sf

    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

Bento UI loads about 2.7k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 42 tokens; SKILL.md has 398 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~42
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~2.7k

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.

Bento UI

"Everything in its right place. A highly structured, modular grid of distinct compartments."

When to Use

Use this sub-style when the user's request matches the aesthetic described above. This is a child reference of the design-it skill and is not meant to be triggered directly.

Core Principles

  1. Strict Grid Structure: The entire UI is built on a responsive, multi-column grid (usually 3x3, 4x4, or irregular masonry).
  2. Rounded Compartments: Every distinct piece of content lives inside a card (compartment) with consistent, usually large, border-radius.
  3. Equal Spacing: The gap between compartments must be perfectly consistent everywhere.

Visual DNA

  • Colors: Highly adaptable, but looks incredibly premium with Minimalist Slate or Yacht Club. Often uses a slightly off-white or light gray background to make the white compartments pop.
  • Typography: Apple-esque (e.g., SF Pro, Inter). Headlines are usually bold and placed at the top-left or bottom-left of each compartment.
  • Visuals: Often relies on high-quality, edge-to-edge images or single, large 3D icons inside specific grid cells to break up text-heavy cards.

Web Implementation

  • CSS Grid is mandatory. Flexbox is too difficult to maintain the strict 2D structure.
  • CSS Example:
css
.bento-container {
  display: grid;
  grid-template-columns: repeat(4, 1fr);
  grid-auto-rows: 200px;
  gap: 24px;
  padding: 24px;
  background-color: var(--bg-primary); /* Slightly darker than cards */
}

.bento-card {
  background-color: #fff;
  border-radius: 32px; /* Very large border radius */
  padding: 32px;
  box-shadow: 0 4px 24px rgba(0,0,0,0.04);
  /* Optional: subtle 1px border for crispness */
  border: 1px solid rgba(0,0,0,0.05);
  
  display: flex;
  flex-direction: column;
  justify-content: space-between;
}

/* Creating spans for different bento sizes */
.bento-span-2 { grid-column: span 2; }
.bento-span-2-row { grid-row: span 2; }
.bento-large { grid-column: span 2; grid-row: span 2; }

App Implementation

SwiftUI
swift
struct BentoGrid: View {
    let columns = [
        GridItem(.flexible(), spacing: 16),
        GridItem(.flexible(), spacing: 16)
    ]
    
    var body: some View {
        ScrollView {
            LazyVGrid(columns: columns, spacing: 16) {
                // 2x1 Span (Full width)
                BentoCard(title: "Hero", color: .blue)
                    .frame(height: 180)
                
                // 1x1 Spans
                BentoCard(title: "Stats", color: .green)
                    .frame(height: 180)
                BentoCard(title: "Graph", color: .purple)
                    .frame(height: 180)
                
                // 1x2 Span (Tall)
                BentoCard(title: "Activity", color: .orange)
                    .frame(height: 376) // (180 * 2) + 16 spacing
                
                // 1x1 Spans next to the tall one
                VStack(spacing: 16) {
                    BentoCard(title: "A", color: .pink).frame(height: 180)
                    BentoCard(title: "B", color: .cyan).frame(height: 180)
                }
            }
            .padding(16)
        }
        .background(Color(.systemGroupedBackground))
    }
}

struct BentoCard: View {
    let title: String
    let color: Color
    var body: some View {
        RoundedRectangle(cornerRadius: 24)
            .fill(Color(.secondarySystemGroupedBackground))
            .overlay(
                Text(title).font(.headline).foregroundColor(color),
                alignment: .topLeading
            )
            .padding(16)
            // Soft bento shadow
            .shadow(color: .black.opacity(0.04), radius: 12, x: 0, y: 4)
    }
}
  • Use LazyVGrid for uniform grids.
  • For complex irregular bento layouts (like 1x2 spans), you often have to mix VStack and HStack inside the grid cells to fake the spans.
  • Maintain absolute consistency with cornerRadius (usually 24-32pt) and spacing (usually 16pt).

}
  • The flutter_staggered_grid_view package is practically mandatory for complex Bento grids in Flutter.
  • Use StaggeredGridTile.count to explicitly declare the crossAxis and mainAxis span of each compartment.
React Native
jsx
const BentoScreen = () => {
  return (
    <ScrollView

  • React Native lacks CSS Grid. You must manually compose the grid using flexDirection: 'row' and vertical stacks.
  • The gap property in React Native flexbox makes this significantly easier than using margins.
Jetpack Compose
kotlin
@Composable
fun BentoGrid() {
    Column(
        modifier = Modifier
            .fillMaxSize()
            .background(Color(0xFFF2F2F7))
            .verticalScroll(rememberScrollState())
            .padding(16.dp),
        verticalArrangement = Arrangement.spacedBy(16.dp)
    ) {
        // Full width
        BentoCard(title = "Hero", modifier = Modifier.fillMaxWidth().height(180.dp))
        
        // Two columns
        Row(horizontalArrangement = Arrangement.spacedBy(16.dp)) {
            BentoCard(title = "Stats", modifier = Modifier.weight(1f).height(180.dp))
            BentoCard(title = "Graph", modifier = Modifier.weight(1f).height(180.dp))
        }
        
        // Complex span: 1x2 left, two 1x1s right
        Row(horizontalArrangement = Arrangement.spacedBy(16.dp)) {
            BentoCard(title = "Activity", modifier = Modifier.weight(1f).height(376.dp))
            
            Column(
                modifier = Modifier.weight(1f),
                verticalArrangement = Arrangement.spacedBy(16.dp)
            ) {
                BentoCard(title = "A", modifier = Modifier.fillMaxWidth().height(180.dp))
                BentoCard(title = "B", modifier = Modifier.fillMaxWidth().height(180.dp))
            }
        }
    }
}

@Composable
fun BentoCard(title: String, modifier: Modifier = Modifier) {
    Card(
        modifier = modifier,
        shape = RoundedCornerShape(24.dp),
        colors = CardDefaults.cardColors(containerColor = Color.White),
        elevation = CardDefaults.cardElevation(defaultElevation = 2.dp)
    ) {
        Text(title, fontWeight = FontWeight.Bold, modifier = Modifier.padding(24.dp))
    }
}
  • While LazyVerticalGrid exists, for highly specific irregular bento layouts, manually building rows and columns with weight(1f) is often much more reliable.
  • Use Arrangement.spacedBy(16.dp) on both Columns and Rows to ensure mathematically perfect gutters.

Do's and Don'ts

  • DO: Mix sizes! A bento box is boring if every cell is 1x1. Use 2x1, 1x2, and 2x2 cells to create visual interest.
  • DON'T: Clutter the inside of a bento card. If it needs a lot of elements, break it into multiple cards.

Limitations

  • This is a styling reference and does not replace environment-specific validation, accessibility testing, or expert review.
  • Ensure appropriate contrast ratios and responsive behaviors are verified separately.
