SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill requires bash, python3, node.js, and includes scripts (resource) and references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This skill solves the problem of inconsistent, manual, or broken Storybook story creation by providing a standardized, agent-driven workflow that ensures stories are conformant, maintainable, and properly wired to the project's design system.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • CSF3 Story Authoring: Automatically generates conformant CSF3 stories for React components, covering only materially-different states to avoid Cartesian explosion.
  • Factory-Based Mocking: Scaffolds factories for components when three or more stories share a data shape, ensuring consistent and reusable mock data.
  • Automated Validation: Integrates a strict gate that validates stories against 13 deterministic checks, including proper imports, layout, and interaction testing.
  • Use Case: When you need to document a new UI component, use this skill to generate a story that includes a functional Controls panel, proper state coverage, and a CSS-check proof to ensure the component renders correctly within the Storybook preview.

Quick Start

Use the sb-stories skill to write a story for the Button component by following the guided prompts for state coverage and factory generation.

FAQPage Schema
How do I generate conformant CSF3 stories for React components?

To generate CSF3 stories for React components, you can use an automated workflow that analyzes component prop shapes and state requirements. This ensures stories are conformant, maintainable, and properly wired to your project's design system.

How do I avoid Cartesian explosion when writing Storybook stories?

Avoid Storybook story Cartesian explosion by authoring stories that cover only materially-different component states. This targeted state coverage prevents redundant combinations while ensuring comprehensive visual documentation.

Do I need Node.js to automate Storybook story creation?

Yes, automating Storybook story creation requires bash, python3, and Node.js. These dependencies are necessary to execute discovery scripts and validate story conformance against project-level design system tokens.

What is the best way to share mock data across multiple Storybook stories?

The best way to share mock data across Storybook stories is by scaffolding factories. When three or more stories share a data shape, factory-based mocking ensures consistent and reusable mock data structures.

How does automated validation work for Storybook CSF3 stories?

Automated validation for Storybook CSF3 stories works by integrating a strict gate that checks stories against 13 deterministic rules. This validation ensures proper imports, layout, interaction testing, and CSS-check proofs for component rendering.

Why does my Storybook component story fail design system token validation?

Storybook component stories fail design system token validation when they lack proper imports or fail strict conformance checks. Running automated validation scripts identifies these layout and interaction testing errors before Storybook integration.
