At a glance

A skill your agent uses when reviewing slow initial loads caused by optional features.

  • Reviewing slow initial loads caused by optional features
  • SKILL.md covers Quick Reference, Check, Fix and Explain, plus 1 more section
  • Instructions only: no scripts, shell commands, URLs or credentials in SKILL.md

What it does

Import On Interaction is an agent skill from thedaviddias/Front-End-Checklist. Use when reviewing slow initial loads caused by optional features. Prioritize code that is expensive to download or execute and not required for the first viewport, first input, or core task completion.

Its SKILL.md is about 540 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files, including reference files (for example `references/rule.md`).

The repository describes itself as: 🗂 The essential checklist for modern web development, for humans and AI agents. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Reviewing slow initial loads caused by optional features

Example prompts

  • “/import-on-interaction”

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit e8d14d0. 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

    Links to these hosts (documentation or services it may open):

    • frontendchecklist.io

    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

Import On Interaction loads about 537 tokens when it runs, and up to ~1.4k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 56 tokens; SKILL.md has 235 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~56
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~537
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~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.

Load non-critical code on user interaction

Users should not pay the download, parse, and execution cost for features they may never use. Import-on-interaction shrinks initial JavaScript, reduces main-thread work during page load, and keeps the first view focused on content that matters immediately.

Quick Reference

  • Move non-essential code behind clicks, focus, hovers, or explicit user actions
  • Use dynamic import() so the code is absent from the initial route bundle
  • Show immediate UI feedback while the deferred chunk loads
  • Use this for chat widgets, editors, maps, filters, and export flows that are not needed on first paint

Check

Inspect this route or component for heavy modules, widgets, or third-party scripts that load on first render but are only needed after a user clicks, focuses, hovers, or opens a panel.

Fix

Move the non-critical dependency behind a user-triggered dynamic import(), add immediate loading feedback, and ensure the initial render still works without the deferred feature.

Explain

Explain import-on-interaction, why it improves initial performance, and which features are safe to defer until the user shows intent.

Code Review

Inspect event handlers, modal triggers, drawers, editors, maps, export actions, and third-party widgets. Flag code that is included in the initial bundle even though it is only needed after a user interaction, and verify the fix keeps the initial path lighter without degrading the triggered flow.
