Install
Works with every agent the skills CLI supports.
npx skills add https://github.com/paulrberg/agent-skills --skill tailwind-css- 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 tailwind-css 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.
Tailwind CSS
Follow the installed Tailwind version and the repository's tokens, components, class-merging utility, CSS entrypoint, and nearby UI. They take precedence over this skill. Do not add packages, change integration, or migrate versions without a request and local need.
Routing
- Apply coding preferences only where the project is silent.
- For v4 configuration, migration, directives, or generated classes, use v4 rules and the matching official docs.
- Read tailwind-variants, tw-animate-css, or ESLint only when that integration exists locally or the request adds it.
Do not apply v4 syntax to an older installation. Preserve responsive, interaction, accessible, and dark-mode behavior. Do not redesign beyond the request.
Completion
Define the intended visual and state change. Reuse local conventions. Keep classes statically discoverable.
If source registration or generated mappings change, run the real Tailwind build and confirm the expected utilities. Run required repository checks and inspect the changed states at one representative viewport for a small style edit. Broaden to narrow/wide viewports, themes, and interactions when responsive rules or shared styling changed. When markup is transformed by JavaScript or a component library, inspect the final DOM too. Textual class review alone is insufficient. Repeat checks only when subsequent edits affect their evidence.
Finish with ### 🎨 Tailwind — ✅ styling updated (or ### 🎨 Tailwind — 🔎 inspected, no files written) and
code-check and rendered-inspection evidence. Use prose for one inspected state and a compact table for several. Add
### ⚠️ Remaining only when needed. Keep source UI copy and diagnostics undecorated.
