AI coding skills

formzk ships a suite of Claude Code skills in the repo's skills/ folder. A skill is a small instruction package (SKILL.md + reference files) that an AI coding agent loads automatically when a task matches — so instead of guessing at formzk's API, the agent follows the same registry pattern, type augmentation, and gotchas documented on this site.

Every developer has different UI preferences, and the skills respect that: they detect your app's UI library and route accordingly — MUI apps get @formzk/mui, Tamagui apps get @formzk/tamagui, and everything else (Chakra, Ant Design, shadcn, your own design system) is guided to @formzk/core with custom-registered components.

The suite

Skill	What it does	Example prompt
formzk-implement	Builds forms with formzk in your app. Detects your UI kit from package.json, installs the right packages, sets up the provider, type augmentation, form, inputs, and verification.	"Add a signup form with email, password, and a terms checkbox using formzk"
formzk-custom-component	Wraps any React component to formzk's value/onChange contract, registers it, and augments ComponentPropsMap for typed usage.	"Make my StarRating component work inside a formzk form"
formzk-new-adapter	Scaffolds a new @formzk/<kit> adapter package inside the formzk monorepo, following the contributing checklist and the libs/mui anatomy.	"Scaffold a @formzk/chakra adapter"

If your UI kit has no official adapter, formzk-implement guides the agent to the core route — and points power users at CONTRIBUTING.md to upstream their wrappers as a new adapter (which formzk-new-adapter automates).

Installation

Copy the skill folders you want into your project's .claude/skills/ directory:

# per-project (recommended)
npx degit louiskhenghao/formzk/skills/formzk-implement .claude/skills/formzk-implement
npx degit louiskhenghao/formzk/skills/formzk-custom-component .claude/skills/formzk-custom-component

Or with a plain clone:

git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/louiskhenghao/formzk /tmp/formzk
cp -r /tmp/formzk/skills/formzk-implement .claude/skills/

To make a skill available in all your projects, copy it to ~/.claude/skills/ instead.

Then just ask your agent for a form — the skill triggers automatically:

Add a login form using formzk

Notes

• formzk-new-adapter is for working inside a clone of the formzk repo (contributing an adapter), not for app development. In the repo itself, all three skills are already active via .claude/skills/ symlinks.
• Each skill is self-contained — install only what you need.
• The skills use the standard SKILL.md format, so other AI agents that read that format can use them too.
