What it does
This is a set of written instructions that makes the AI agent respond like an experienced React developer. Once installed, when you ask for React help, the agent follows guidance on choosing between hooks like useState and useReducer, when to use Server Components versus client components, how to avoid common bugs such as stale closures or conditional hooks, and when memoization actually helps performance. It only changes how the agent reasons and writes code; it does not run anything by itself.
Great for
- Developers building or refactoring React or Next.js App Router applications
- Teams wanting consistent React conventions in AI-generated code
- People debugging re-render, stale state, or useEffect issues
Skip it if
- Non-React front-end work such as Vue, Svelte, or plain HTML, where the guidance does not apply
- Beginners who need a full tutorial, since the file is brief reference guidance rather than step-by-step teaching
- Projects that must follow a different team style guide, since the agent may conflict with local conventions unless told otherwise
Try asking
- “Refactor this component to remove the useEffect that syncs derived state”
- “Why is my React list re-rendering on every keystroke? Suggest fixes”
- “Should this form use controlled inputs or uncontrolled refs?”
- “Create a useDebounce custom hook and show how to use it in a search box”

Ask for the task
No special command needed — the agent reads the skill's description and loads it when your request matches. Try one of the prompts above.
Get better results
- Paste your actual component code and the symptom you see, so the agent can apply the rules to your specific case.
- Say which React version and framework you use (for example Next.js App Router), since guidance on Server Components depends on it.
- Ask the agent to explain its reasoning for memoization choices, and verify with React DevTools profiling as the skill itself recommends.
