// Suite of tools for creating elaborate, multi-component claude.ai HTML artifacts using modern frontend web technologies (React, Tailwind CSS, shadcn/ui). Use for complex artifacts requiring state management, routing, or shadcn/ui components - not for simple single-file HTML/JSX artifacts.
Answer questions about the AI SDK and help build AI-powered features. Use when developers: (1) Ask about AI SDK functions like generateText, streamText, ToolLoopAgent, or tools, (2) Want to build AI agents, chatbots, or text generation features, (3) Have questions about AI providers (OpenAI, Anthropic, etc.), streaming, tool calling, or structured output.
Create distinctive, production-grade frontend interfaces with high design quality. Use this skill when the user asks to build web components, pages, artifacts, posters, or applications (examples include websites, landing pages, dashboards, React components, HTML/CSS layouts, or when styling/beautifying any web UI). Generates creative, polished code and UI design that avoids generic AI aesthetics.
Design a PostgreSQL-specific schema. Covers best-practices, data types, indexing, constraints, performance patterns, and advanced features
BuildingAI monorepo project structure and architecture guide. Use when AI needs to understand project organization, locate files, understand package relationships, find where specific functionality is implemented, or navigate the codebase structure. Essential for any development task that requires understanding the project layout, import patterns, module organization, or cross-package dependencies.
Guide for creating effective skills. This skill should be used when users want to create a new skill (or update an existing skill) that extends Claude's capabilities with specialized knowledge, workflows, or tool integrations.
Create and manage Claude Code skills following Anthropic best practices. Use when creating new skills, modifying skill-rules.json, understanding trigger patterns, working with hooks, debugging skill activation, or implementing progressive disclosure. Covers skill structure, YAML frontmatter, trigger types (keywords, intent patterns, file paths, content patterns), enforcement levels (block, suggest, warn), hook mechanisms (UserPromptSubmit, PreToolUse), session tracking, and the 500-line rule.

To build powerful frontend claude.ai artifacts, follow these steps:
scripts/init-artifact.shscripts/bundle-artifact.shStack: React 18 + TypeScript + Vite + Parcel (bundling) + Tailwind CSS + shadcn/ui
VERY IMPORTANT: To avoid what is often referred to as "AI slop", avoid using excessive centered layouts, purple gradients, uniform rounded corners, and Inter font.
Run the initialization script to create a new React project:
bash scripts/init-artifact.sh <project-name>
cd <project-name>
This creates a fully configured project with:
@buildingai/ui/) configuredTo build the artifact, edit the generated files. See Common Development Tasks below for guidance.
To bundle the React app into a single HTML artifact:
bash scripts/bundle-artifact.sh
This creates bundle.html - a self-contained artifact with all JavaScript, CSS, and dependencies
inlined. This file can be directly shared in Claude conversations as an artifact.
Requirements: Your project must have an index.html in the root directory.
What the script does:
.parcelrc config with path alias supportFinally, share the bundled HTML file in conversation with the user so they can view it as an artifact.
Note: This is a completely optional step. Only perform if necessary or requested.
To test/visualize the artifact, use available tools (including other Skills or built-in tools like Playwright or Puppeteer). In general, avoid testing the artifact upfront as it adds latency between the request and when the finished artifact can be seen. Test later, after presenting the artifact, if requested or if issues arise.
