## What it does

The skill wires Nuxt UI v4.6+ into your agent for Nuxt v4.0.0 projects. That means 125+ accessible components built on Tailwind CSS v4 and Reka UI, with dark mode and theming. Reference files cover the categories: 10 dashboard components, 8 chat components on AI SDK v5, 6 editor components on TipTap, 16 page layout components. It also ships the official Nuxt UI MCP server for live component data.

Nuxt is not the only target. Plain Vue apps on Vite, Inertia and SSR work through the Vite plugin. React, Nuxt 3 and Tailwind CSS v3 are out of scope, so on those stacks the skill won't help. You can scaffold from a template instead of wiring things by hand: `npm create nuxt@latest -- -t ui/dashboard`, or `-t ui/chat`, `-t ui/landing`, `-t ui/saas`.

The README has a secure installation section. UI packages touch your CSS and component tree, so the author advises blocking post-install scripts with `npm config set ignore-scripts true`, waiting 7 days before adopting a new version, and scoring packages with `socket package score npm <pkg>`. For the full setup — Socket CLI, cooldown, lockfile validation, CI enforcement — load the `dependency-upgrade` skill.

## Quick Start

```bash
bunx nuxi init my-app && cd my-app
bun add @nuxt/ui tailwindcss
```

```typescript
// nuxt.config.ts
export default defineNuxtConfig({
  modules: ['@nuxt/ui'],
  css: ['~/assets/css/main.css']
})
```

```css
/* assets/css/main.css */
@import "tailwindcss";
@import "@nuxt/ui";
```

```vue
<!-- app.vue -->
<template><UApp><NuxtPage /></UApp></template>
```

**Or use a template**:
```bash
npm create nuxt@latest -- -t ui             # Starter
npm create nuxt@latest -- -t ui/dashboard    # Dashboard
npm create nuxt@latest -- -t ui/chat         # AI Chat
npm create nuxt@latest -- -t ui/landing      # Landing page
npm create nuxt@latest -- -t ui/saas         # SaaS
npm create nuxt@latest -- -t ui/docs         # Documentation
npm create nuxt@latest -- -t ui/portfolio    # Portfolio

```

**Commands available**: `/nuxt-ui-v4:setup`, `/nuxt-ui:migrate`, `/nuxt-ui:theme`, `/nuxt-ui:component`

## Secure Installation

UI packages modify CSS and component trees — verify before allowing into your project. Follow supply chain security best practices:

- **Block post-install scripts** — `npm config set ignore-scripts true` (or Bun: disabled by default)
