Automated safety checks
This skill passed all 6 checks. We read its files at one commit and looked for the things that make a skill dangerous to run — not for whether it works.
Declares what it does: passed
SKILL.md parses and declares a name and a description.
SKILL.md exists, its frontmatter parses, and it declares a name and a description.
No undeclared network calls: passed
Makes no network calls.
Every host the skill dials — from its scripts, its config endpoints or the commands it tells the agent to run — is either well-known package and API infrastructure or declared in its own frontmatter. Links in documentation are not counted.
No obfuscated payloads: passed
No encoded or obfuscated payloads.
No base64, hex or compressed blob is decoded and then executed, and no encoded shell commands.
No credential access: passed
Reads no keys, tokens, keychains or credential files.
Neither the code nor the SKILL.md instructions read SSH keys, cloud credentials, keychains, token stores, browser cookie databases or dotfiles that hold secrets.
No pipe-to-shell installers: passed
No pipe-to-shell or download-and-run installers.
No `curl … | sh` pattern, in the code or in the instructions, that runs code fetched at run time.

About this skill
What it does
This skill guides AI agents to correctly use Shadcn BaseUI components within React projects, preventing them from suggesting patterns associated with Radix UI. It focuses on ensuring code adheres to Base UI's specific conventions, particularly regarding slot patterns and prop usage. The skill is designed for rapid prototyping and building accessible web applications using the pre-designed components provided by Shadcn BaseUI.
When to use it
- When working on a project that utilizes Shadcn BaseUI components.
- To ensure generated code uses the correct rendering patterns (render props instead of
asChild). - When implementing Accordion components, especially when dealing with single or multiple selection modes.
- When wrapping non-button elements like links within a Button component.
Key capabilities
- Slot Pattern Enforcement: Prioritizes render prop usage over the
asChildpattern for trigger/wrapper components (DialogTrigger, PopoverTrigger, etc.). - Accordion Prop Guidance: Provides correct examples and guidance on using Accordion props, including handling
defaultValuein single and multi-mode scenarios. - Button Native Behavior: Instructs agents to use
nativeButton={false}when rendering a Button as a non-button element (e.g., wrapping a<Link>). - Project Verification: Requires verification that the project is using Base UI by checking for components with a style field starting with "base-" in
components.json.
Example prompts
- "Generate a DialogTrigger component wrapped in a Button."
- "Create an Accordion component with multiple open items, initialized to 'item-1' and 'item-2'."
- "Show me how to wrap a Next.js Link inside a Button using Shadcn BaseUI."
Tips & gotchas
- Critical Verification: Before generating any code, the AI agent must verify that it is working with a Base UI project by inspecting
components.jsonand confirming the style field starts with "base-". If not, this skill will produce incorrect results. - Dependency Requirement: Ensure the
@base-ui/reactpackage is installed in your project. - Render Prop Focus: Always prioritize using render props instead of
asChildfor trigger components.
