What it does

Tanstack Virtual is an agent skill from udecode/plate. Headless UI for virtualizing large element lists at 60FPS in TS/JS, React, Vue, Solid, Svelte, Lit & Angular.

Its SKILL.md is about 2.8k 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 Frontend & Design, covering Design systems. It works with TanStack, React, Angular and Svelte. The repository describes itself as: Rich-text editor with AI and shadcn/ui.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve Design systems

Example prompts

  • “/tanstack-virtual”

Requirements

  • Node.js

Workflow steps

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

  1. Overestimate estimateSize - prevents scroll jumps (items shrinking causes issues)
  2. Increase overscan (3-5) to reduce blank flashing during fast scrolling
  3. Use transform: translateY() over top for GPU-composited positioning
  4. Add data-index attribute when using measureElement for dynamic sizing
  5. Don't set fixed height on dynamically measured items
  6. Use getItemKey for stable keys when items can reorder
  7. Use gap option instead of margins (margins interfere with measurement)
  8. Use paddingStart/End instead of CSS padding on the container
  9. Use enabled: false to pause when the list is hidden
  10. Memoize callbacks (estimateSize, getItemKey, rangeExtractor)
  11. Use will-change: transform CSS on items for GPU acceleration

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit a860762. 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:

    • npm

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use npm, which can reach the network depending on how they are called.

    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

Tanstack Virtual loads about 2.8k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 32 tokens; SKILL.md has 392 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~32
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~2.8k

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.

SKILL.md

Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 392 words (~2,761 tokens).

“TanStack Virtual provides virtualization logic for rendering only visible items in large lists, grids, and tables. It calculates which items are in the viewport and positions them with absolute positioning, keeping DOM node count minimal regardless of dataset size.”
