## What it does

The skill sets an order of operations for Ant Design work: ask the offline `@ant-design/cli` about the API before touching component code. Component props come from `antd info <Component> --format json`, a working baseline from `antd demo`, theming and styling hooks from `antd token` and `antd semantic`. After edits, `antd lint <changed-path> --format json` runs on the changed path. Pin a project version with `--version <x.y.z>` or let the CLI read the local `node_modules`.

What's inside is rules, not tutorials. One root provider per app: `ConfigProvider` for CSR, plus `StyleProvider` under SSR. Theming walks from global tokens to component tokens, and broad `.ant-*` overrides are off the table. Separate sections cover Pro routing, menus and access control, CRUD schemas, and for X the message and tool schemas with streaming state.

The regression checklist is the practical part: stable `rowKey` on tables, local filtering disabled in `Select` when remote search is on, explicit controlled or uncontrolled mode for `Upload` with a retry path. The skill targets React 18-19 and TypeScript and sticks to documented APIs. If an `antd` command crashes or returns bad data, the agent prepares an `antd bug-cli` preview for confirmation instead of quietly routing around it.

## Install

### Claude Code (native platform)

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add ant-design/antd-skill --skill ant-design -a claude-code
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `~/.claude/skills/ant-design/SKILL.md` — Copy the whole skill folder; for one project use .claude/skills/ant-design/

### Codex

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add ant-design/antd-skill --skill ant-design -a codex
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.agents/skills/ant-design/SKILL.md` — For all projects use ~/.agents/skills/

### Cursor

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add ant-design/antd-skill --skill ant-design -a cursor
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.cursor/skills/ant-design/SKILL.md` — Cursor also reads .agents/skills/ and .claude/skills/

### GitHub Copilot

1. **GitHub CLI**
```bash
gh skill install ant-design/antd-skill ant-design
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.github/skills/ant-design/SKILL.md`

### Gemini CLI

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add ant-design/antd-skill --skill ant-design -a gemini-cli
```

2. **Platform CLI**
```bash
gemini skills install https://github.com/ant-design/antd-skill --path skills/ant-design
```

### Windsurf (Devin Desktop)

**Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.devin/skills/ant-design/SKILL.md` — The legacy .windsurf/skills/ path still works

### OpenCode

**Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add ant-design/antd-skill --skill ant-design -a opencode
```

### Claude.ai

**Claude.ai**
- Zip the folder and upload it in Settings → Capabilities → Skills

Where a file is given instead of a command, copy the files from the source to that path: https://github.com/ant-design/antd-skill/tree/HEAD/skills/ant-design/SKILL.md

## When to use it
- pick the right antd component for a screen
- theme through tokens instead of global CSS overrides
- build a table with sorting, filters and pagination
- wire routes, menus and access control in Ant Design Pro
- define streaming and tool rendering for a chat UI on Ant Design X

## Example prompts
- Look up the TreeSelect API with antd info and suggest a multi-select variant
- Build a profile edit form on antd 6 using theme tokens, then run antd lint on the changed files
- I need a chat with streamed replies — outline the message and tool schema for Ant Design X v2

# Ant Design

## S - Scope
- Target: `antd@^6` + React 18-19, with `ant-design-pro@^5` / `@ant-design/pro-components` and `@ant-design/x@^2` when needed.
- Tooling: `@ant-design/cli` for offline component metadata, demos, changelogs, migrations, linting, doctor checks, and usage analysis.
- Focus: decision guidance only; no end-user tutorials.
- Source policy: official docs only; no undocumented APIs or internal `.ant-*` coupling.

### Default assumptions
- Language: TypeScript.
- Styling: tokens first, then `classNames`/`styles`; avoid global overrides.
- Provider: one root `ConfigProvider` unless strict isolation is required.

### Mandatory rules
- Before writing or changing antd component code, query the component API first with `antd info <Component> --format json`. Do not rely on memory when the CLI can answer it offline.
- Always use `--format json` with `antd` CLI commands.
- If the project version matters, match it with `--version <x.y.z>` or let the CLI auto-detect from local `node_modules`.
- After changing antd code, run `antd lint <changed-path> --format json`.
- If an `antd` CLI command crashes, returns wrong data, or violates its documented behavior, prepare an `antd bug-cli` preview for user confirmation instead of silently working around it.
- For component questions, first map the component name to the official route slug `{components}` (lowercase kebab-case, e.g. `TreeSelect -> tree-select`, `Button -> button`), then request docs in this order (CN first, EN fallback):
  1. `https://ant.design/components/{components}-cn`
  2. `https://ant.design/components/{components}`
  - Examples: `tree-select-cn -> tree-select`, `button-cn -> button`.
- Use only documented antd/Pro/X APIs.
- Do not invent props/events/component names.
- Do not rely on internal DOM or `.ant-*` selectors.
- Theme priority: global tokens -> component tokens -> alias tokens.

## P - Process
### 1) Classify
- Identify layer: core antd, Pro, or X.
- Confirm version, rendering mode (CSR/SSR/streaming), data scale, and whether `@ant-design/cli` should be the primary lookup path.

### 2) Query authoritative sources
