## What it does

This skill guides coding agents through packaging React components for Webflow Designer. It verifies the local Webflow CLI setup, identifies the package manager from lock files, and configures `webflow.json` with your component glob pattern.

Before any code reaches the workspace, the skill runs your build and triggers `webflow library bundle`. It inspects dependencies and verifies that the output bundle stays under the 2MB size limit.

Actual deployment happens via `webflow library share`. The CLI will open a browser window on the first run for workspace authentication, saving `WEBFLOW_WORKSPACE_ID` and `WEBFLOW_WORKSPACE_API_TOKEN` to your `.env` file.

## Install

### Claude Code (native platform)

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add webflow/webflow-skills --skill webflow-cli:code-component -a claude-code
```
```bash
npx skills add webflow/webflow-skills --skill code-component-command -a claude-code
```

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

### Codex

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add webflow/webflow-skills --skill code-component-command -a codex
```

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

### Cursor

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add webflow/webflow-skills --skill code-component-command -a cursor
```

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

### GitHub Copilot

1. **GitHub CLI**
```bash
gh skill install webflow/webflow-skills code-component-command
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.github/skills/code-component-command/SKILL.md`

### Gemini CLI

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add webflow/webflow-skills --skill code-component-command -a gemini-cli
```

2. **Platform CLI**
```bash
gemini skills install https://github.com/webflow/webflow-skills --path plugins/webflow-skills/skills/code-component-command
```

### Windsurf (Devin Desktop)

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

### OpenCode

**Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add webflow/webflow-skills --skill code-component-command -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/webflow/webflow-skills/tree/HEAD/plugins/webflow-skills/skills/code-component-command/SKILL.md

## When to use it
- configure `webflow.json` for React component libraries
- verify component bundle size against the 2MB limit
- deploy React code components to Webflow Designer
- authenticate Webflow workspaces via Webflow CLI

## Example prompts
- Configure my React project for Webflow code components
- Run webflow library bundle and check my bundle size
- Deploy our component library to the Webflow workspace

name: webflow-cli:code-component
description: Create and deploy reusable React components for Webflow Designer. Configure existing React projects with webflow.json, build and bundle code, validate output, and deploy to workspace using library share. Use when building custom components for designers.
---

# Code Component

Create, build, and deploy React components to Webflow Designer with comprehensive validation and deployment verification.

## Important Note

**ALWAYS use Bash tool for all Webflow CLI operations:**
- Execute `webflow` CLI commands via Bash tool
- Use Read tool to examine generated files (never modify)
- Use Glob tool to discover project files
- Verify CLI installation: `webflow --version`
- Check authentication: On first `webflow library share`, workspace authentication happens automatically
- DO NOT use Webflow MCP tools for CLI workflows
- All CLI commands require proper descriptions (not context parameters)

**Package Manager Detection:**
- Check for lock files: `package-lock.json` (npm), `pnpm-lock.yaml` (pnpm), `yarn.lock` (yarn)
- If no lock file found, ask user which package manager to use (npm/pnpm/yarn)
- Use detected package manager for all install/build commands

## Instructions

### Phase 1: Environment Verification
1. **Verify CLI installed**: Run `webflow --version` to confirm CLI is installed
2. **Check project state**: Determine if user has existing React project or needs guidance
3. **Identify workspace**: Explain that workspace authentication happens on first share
4. **Review configuration**: Check if webflow.json exists with library configuration

### Phase 2: Project Configuration
5. **Ask operation type**: Clarify what user wants to do:
   - Configure existing React project for Code Components
   - Add components to already-configured project
   - Build and share existing library
6. **Configure webflow.json**: Add library configuration to webflow.json:
   - Library name (appears in Webflow Designer)
   - Components glob pattern (e.g., `./src/**/*.webflow.tsx`)
   - Optional bundleConfig for custom webpack
7. **Read configuration files**: Use Read tool to show:
   - `webflow.json` - Library configuration
   - `package.json` - Dependencies and scripts
   - Component file structure
8. **Verify dependencies**: Ensure React is installed and build scripts exist

### Phase 3: Build & Bundle Validation
9. **Run build**: Execute user's build command (e.g., `npm run build`, `yarn build`)
10. **Validate build output**: Check for build errors or warnings
11. **Run bundle command**: Execute `webflow library bundle` for local validation
12. **Analyze bundle**:
    - Bundle size (should be < 2MB)
    - Dependencies included
    - Output location (default: `./dist`)
    - Validation warnings
13. **Preview bundle details**: Show bundle summary with validation status
```
