## What it does

The skill activates before any edit under `uiBundles/*/src/` or the bundle's `index.html` when the look and feel of an existing app changes. It carries project conventions: the `appLayout.tsx` shell, shadcn/ui components, Tailwind CSS, Salesforce base-path routing, and module restrictions. Skip it and the agent reaches for familiar imports and breaks routing.

Two checks come first. `node scripts/resolve-ui-bundle.mjs [project-root]` reads `sfdx-project.json` and prints the bundle directory. Then `node scripts/check-preconditions.mjs <bundle-dir>` confirms the bundle has `src/appLayout.tsx`, `src/routes.tsx`, and `src/components/ui/`. Run every `npm`, lint, build, and dev command from inside that bundle directory, never from the project root.

With several bundles present the resolve script prints candidates and the skill stops until you name the app. On an unscaffolded bundle it also stops and points to `experience-ui-bundle-app-coordinate`. The skill expects `node` 18.0.0 or newer, `npm` and `npx` from 8.0.0, and `python3` from 3.10.0.

## Requirements
- Works with: Salesforce

## Install

### Claude Code (native platform)

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add forcedotcom/sf-skills --skill experience-ui-bundle-frontend-generate -a claude-code
```

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

### Codex

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add forcedotcom/sf-skills --skill experience-ui-bundle-frontend-generate -a codex
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.agents/skills/experience-ui-bundle-frontend-generate/SKILL.md` — For all projects use ~/.agents/skills/

### Cursor

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add forcedotcom/sf-skills --skill experience-ui-bundle-frontend-generate -a cursor
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.cursor/skills/experience-ui-bundle-frontend-generate/SKILL.md` — Cursor also reads .agents/skills/ and .claude/skills/

### GitHub Copilot

1. **GitHub CLI**
```bash
gh skill install forcedotcom/sf-skills experience-ui-bundle-frontend-generate
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.github/skills/experience-ui-bundle-frontend-generate/SKILL.md`

### Gemini CLI

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add forcedotcom/sf-skills --skill experience-ui-bundle-frontend-generate -a gemini-cli
```

2. **Platform CLI**
```bash
gemini skills install https://github.com/forcedotcom/sf-skills --path skills/experience-ui-bundle-frontend-generate
```

### Windsurf (Devin Desktop)

**Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.devin/skills/experience-ui-bundle-frontend-generate/SKILL.md` — The legacy .windsurf/skills/ path still works

### OpenCode

**Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add forcedotcom/sf-skills --skill experience-ui-bundle-frontend-generate -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/forcedotcom/sf-skills/tree/HEAD/skills/experience-ui-bundle-frontend-generate/SKILL.md

## When to use it
- restyle an existing page inside a UI bundle
- add a routed page built from shadcn/ui components
- rename the app in the header and the browser tab title
- fix navigation and footer without breaking Salesforce base-path routing
- adopt a pre-built feature package instead of hand-writing it

## Example prompts
- change the background and font on the contacts page in uiBundles
- add a settings page with a shadcn/ui table
- rename the app — update the header and the title in index.html

description: "MUST activate before editing ANY file under uiBundles/*/src/ (or the bundle's index.html) for visual or UI changes to an EXISTING app — pages, components, sections, layout, styling, colors, fonts, navigation, animations, branding, or any look-and-feel change. Use this skill when modifying pages, components, layout, styling, navigation, or branding in an existing UI bundle app. Activate when the project contains appLayout.tsx, routes.tsx, src/pages/, src/components/, src/styles/global.css, or the bundle's index.html. This skill contains critical project-specific conventions (appLayout.tsx shell, shadcn/ui components, Tailwind CSS, Salesforce base-path routing, module restrictions) that override general knowledge. Without this skill, generated code will use wrong imports, break routing, or ignore project structure. Do NOT use when creating a new app from scratch or the bundle has not been scaffolded yet (use experience-ui-bundle-app-coordinate instead)."

# UI Bundle UI

## Resolve the Bundle Directory

**MUST** run `node scripts/resolve-ui-bundle.mjs [project-root]` before applying any rule below or writing any file — an ad-hoc `find`/`ls` is not a substitute; it does not enforce the exit-code gate below. Always invoke via `node` (never as a bare executable) so this works on Windows as well as macOS/Linux. It reads `sfdx-project.json`'s `packageDirectories[0].path` (does not assume `force-app` — the source path is configurable) and looks under `<sourceDir>/main/default/uiBundles/`:
