React table state
Before starting, run intent load @tanstack/table-core#table-state for shared ownership, initialization, updates, and resets. State repair does not require loading setup guidance.
Read reactive state
useTable selects all registered state by default. Its optional second-argument selector controls rerenders and the shape of table.state. table.atoms.<slice>.get() and table.store.state are current snapshots, not React subscriptions.
Use selected table.state in the owner render. For narrower boundaries, use table.Subscribe or useSelector from @tanstack/react-store. Without source, table.Subscribe selects from table.store; with source, it subscribes to that atom or store. Start with the default selector until render cost requires narrowing.
Control a slice
Keep features, columns, and data stable. Register the feature that owns the controlled slice. This example controls pagination without adding client row processing:
import { useState } from 'react'
import {
rowPaginationFeature,
tableFeatures,
useTable,
type PaginationState,
} from '@tanstack/react-table'
const features = tableFeatures({ rowPaginationFeature })
const columns = [{ accessorKey: 'name' }]
const data = [{ name: 'Ada' }]
export function PageControl() {
const [pagination, setPagination] = useState<PaginationState>({
pageIndex: 0,
pageSize: 20,
})
const table = useTable({
features,
columns,
data,
state: { pagination },
onPaginationChange: setPagination,
})
return (
<button onClick={() => table.setPageSize(50)}>
{table.state.pagination.pageSize} rows per page
</button>
)
}
The React setter accepts both a value and a functional updater. Supply the current state.pagination together with onPaginationChange; a callback alone does not keep the table synchronized.
For an externally owned atom, create it with useCreateAtom from @tanstack/react-store, pass it in atoms.<slice>, and subscribe with useSelector where other UI needs its value.
Reactive boundaries
For React Compiler memoized children, put Subscribe inside the component hiding builder-method reads or pass the selected value as a changing prop. An outer subscription that ignores its value cannot refresh a stable child. In core-typed cell/header contexts, import standalone Subscribe.
For external-atom examples, selector dependencies, or fine-grained boundaries and React Compiler problems, read reactivity details. If this task changes processing features, run intent load @tanstack/table-core#table-features and read the relevant feature references.
API discovery
Inspect node_modules/@tanstack/react-table/dist/useTable.d.ts and Subscribe.d.ts, plus the installed @tanstack/react-store declarations for atom hooks.
FAQ
What does the table-state skill do?
Read and control Table v9 state in react. Use for tracked reads, subscriptions, controlled slices, and framework-specific reactive boundaries.
How do I install table-state?
Run npx skills add https://github.com/tanstack/table --skill table-state in your project. The skills CLI detects the agents you use and copies the skill into the right folder. For Claude Code you can also place the skill folder at ~/.claude/skills/table-state/ (personal) or .claude/skills/table-state/ (project).
Which AI agents can use table-state?
Any agent that supports the open Agent Skills format (a folder with a SKILL.md file), including Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, GitHub Copilot, Gemini CLI, Windsurf, Cline, OpenCode and more.
Is table-state safe to install?
No partner security audit is available yet. Skills can run commands and scripts, so read the SKILL.md and any bundled files before installing.
