implement-frontend
Standards for implementing and reviewing React/TypeScript/Next.js features in codebases that use React Hook Form, Zod, React Query or Connect Query, and proto-generated API types. Use when building frontend forms, hooks/components, state flows, and type-safe UI mappings in this stack.

Install
Works with every agent the skills CLI supports.
npx skills add https://github.com/mblode/agent-skills --skill implement-frontend- 01
Install
Run the command in your project. The CLI asks which agents to install for.
- 02
Describe the task
Ask your agent for something this skill covers. It loads implement-frontend automatically when relevant.
- 03
Review the result
The agent follows the SKILL.md steps, scripts and references bundled with the skill.
SKILL.md
The instructions your agent reads when the skill is triggered.
Implement Frontend
Apply this skill when the repository already follows this stack:
- React + TypeScript + Next.js
- React Hook Form + Zod
- React Query or Connect Query
- Proto-generated API types (when present)
If local conventions differ, preserve existing project standards and apply only the transferable principles.
Core workflow
- Set ownership boundaries before editing.
- Keep render-only concerns in components.
- Keep fetching, mapping, and business rules in hooks.
- Keep server state in query cache, form state in RHF, and UI-only state in
useState.
- Implement with strict typing and explicit mappings.
- Avoid type escapes such as
any,as any, and ignore directives. - Map API models to UI models in mappers instead of casting.
- Avoid type escapes such as
- Verify reliability and UX before finishing.
- Cover loading, error, and empty states.
- Add cancellation and cleanup for async work when race conditions are possible.
- Preserve keyboard accessibility and focus behavior.
Non-negotiable checks
- Remove duplicate state and
useEffectsync loops. - Keep API calls and business logic out of render components.
- Invalidate or update only affected query keys.
- Use rollback-safe optimistic updates only.
- Remove
console.*,debugger, dead code, and unused imports.
Stack guardrails
- If the repo uses RHF + Zod, use
createZodResolver; avoidzodResolver(schema as any). - If using RHF, avoid putting the entire
formobject in dependency arrays. - Keep proto-to-UI transforms in a dedicated mapper file (for example
utils/proto-mappers.ts) when proto contracts are used.
References
- Use
react-patterns.mdfor forms, hooks, state ownership, query usage, and accessibility. - Use
typescript-patterns.mdfor type hygiene, proto typing, and code organization.
