angular-signals — Claude Code skill: what it does, how to install
Helps manage reactive state in Angular v20+ with signals and replaces RxJS patterns. Marked as deprecated in favor of official skills.
npx skills add analogjs/angular-skills --skill angular-signals -a claude-codeWhat angular-signals does
This skill guides reactive state management in Angular v20+. It covers creating primary state with signal() and derived values with computed(). It also touches on linkedSignal() and effect() calls, alongside refactoring code away from BehaviorSubject.
The author has deprecated the skill and removed its instructions so stale guidance does not linger. Keeping it installed has little practical value because the Angular team now maintains official skills under angular/skills.
You can purge an existing installation using npx skills remove analogjs/angular-skills. Historical instructions remain accessible only through git repository history.
What it helps with
- build reactive state using
signal() - create derived state with
computed() - handle linked dependencies via
linkedSignal() - migrate legacy
BehaviorSubjectcode to Angular signals
Example prompts for the agent
- Refactor this component state from BehaviorSubject to signal() and computed()
- Implement dependent state using linkedSignal() in Angular v20+
- How do I handle this side effect using effect() in Angular?

--- name: angular-signals description: DEPRECATED - this skill is unmaintained. Use the official Angular skills at https://github.com/angular/skills instead. Implement signal-based reactive state management in Angular v20+.
