Gpui Kit

What it does

When your agent uses it

• Setting up a gpui-kit app
• Using a component (Button
• Handling component state
• Window overlays

Example prompts

• “/gpui-kit”

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 8ab193e. 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

  Hosts in commands or code, which the agent is likely to contact:

  • gpui-kit.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

Gpui Kit loads about 5.6k tokens when it runs, and up to ~78k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 196 tokens; SKILL.md has 1,436 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it

~196

When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches

~5.6k

With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them

~78k

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

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

How to build desktop applications with GPUI Kit, the Rust framework published as the gpui-kit crate (GPUI plus gpui_kit::component, gpui_kit::base, gpui_kit::assets). Use when setting up a gpui-kit app, choosing or using a component (Button, Input, Select, Dialog, Sheet, Tabs, Sidebar, List, DataTable, Tree, Chart, etc.), handling component state, theming, or window overlays, and for GPUI mechanics: actions and keybindings, async tasks, contexts, custom elements, entities, events, focus, global state, layout and styling, ElementId, and tests including UI integration testing. Holds the normative Coding Guides: read them before any architecture, state-ownership, public API, naming, or testing decision. Pairs with the gpui-kit-design-guides skill for the Design Guides.

use gpui_kit::*;

gpui_kit::application()
    .with_assets(gpui_kit::assets::Assets)
    .run(|cx| {
        gpui_kit::init(cx);                       // first, before anything else
        gpui_kit::open_window(options, cx, |window, cx| {
            cx.new(|cx| AppView::new(window, cx))
        })
        .expect("failed to open window");
    });
