description	Use this skill when choosing RexBoard components, browsing the RexBoard component catalog, answering which RexBoard board/grid/chess helper to use, or routing a RexBoard request to the right specialized skill. Triggers on: RexBoard components, RexBoard catalog, which RexBoard, RexBoard API list, board-components, rexBoard factory list.

RexBoard Components Catalog

Use this skill as the component selection index for RexBoard. It should answer "Which RexBoard component should I use?" and then route to the correct specialized RexBoard skill for implementation details.

Use This First

For any RexBoard request:

1. Confirm the project has RexBoard setup. If not, use rexboard-setup-and-factory.
2. Identify the board-game intent: grid, board/chess, rendering, movement/pathfinding, matching, MiniBoard, visibility/routes, or map import.
3. Read references/component-catalog.md to choose the component and related skill.
4. Use the specialized skill for config details and recipes.

Routing

User asks for	Route to
Plugin install, this.rexBoard, factory names	rexboard-setup-and-factory
Quad/hex grids, tile/world conversion, directions	rexboard-grids-and-coordinates
Board model, chess placement, occupancy, input events	rexboard-board-and-chess
Shape/image/sprite chess, tile texture, tilemap visuals	rexboard-rendered-tiles-and-pieces
Animated movement, reachable areas, paths, blockers/costs	rexboard-movement-and-pathfinding
Symbol matching, match-3, group matching	rexboard-match-and-puzzle
Composite grouped pieces, drag/drop placement	rexboard-miniboard-and-composite
Field of view, line of sight, route traversal	rexboard-visibility-and-routes
Hexagon map helpers, tilemap import, generated coordinates	rexboard-map-generation-and-import

Reference

Read references/component-catalog.md for the complete compact selection table.

Selection Rules

• Use Board as the central data model for placement, occupancy, bounds, input, and board-level coordinate conversion.
• Use QuadGrid or HexagonGrid before board operations that need coordinates.
• Use plain Phaser game objects plus board.addChess(...) when rendering is custom.
• Use RexBoard Shape, Image, or Sprite when the object should be created directly at board tile coordinates.
• Use MoveTo for animated tile movement and PathFinder for planning.
• Use Match for symbols and patterns; it does not replace board occupancy.
• Use MiniBoard when multiple chess pieces move, rotate, mirror, or place as one composite.

Gotchas

• This skill is an index, not a config reference. Do not invent full configs from it alone.
• Do not trigger on generic board-game questions unless the user mentions RexBoard, rexBoard, board-components, or Rex plugin usage.
• Some behavior details are clearer in implementation than in .d.ts; for exact events and factory signatures, inspect plugins/board/<component>/Factory.js or the relevant source file.
• Keep helper/factory boundaries clear: factories are on this.rexBoard.add, helpers are on this.rexBoard.
