shadcn

You can manage shadcn UI components across projects using a unified workflow that automates discovery, initialization, and documentation to reduce manual setup overhead. This Skill coordinates component registries and presets to maintain consistent project context.

A shadcn preset defines a configuration for initializing components. You can switch presets and regenerate context in an existing project by updating the components.json file and applying the new preset configuration through the unified workflow.

To initialize a shadcn UI project, you use the workflow to apply a preset based on your components.json file. This sets up the project context, enables component search, and prepares directories like scripts/ and references/ for deterministic tasks.

Yes, the workflow provides access to component docs, usage examples, and project context. It coordinates optional directories such as references/ and assets/ to load documentation and maintain consistency across your shadcn UI components.

Yes, the workflow supports adding and searching components from custom shadcn registries. It uses the SKILL.md frontmatter for discovery and coordinates with your project's components.json to ensure components are added consistently.

The preset-based workflow relies on a components.json file and SKILL.md frontmatter for context. It coordinates optional directories for assets and scripts, but deterministic task execution depends on maintaining this consistent structural context across projects.
