Composition patterns for building flexible, maintainable React components. Avoid boolean prop proliferation by using compound components, lifting state, and composing internals. These patterns make codebases easier for both humans and AI agents to work with as they scale. Reference these guidelines when: - architecture-avoid-boolean-props - Don't add boolean props to customize behavior; use composition - architecture-compound-components - Structure complex components with shared context - state-decouple-implementation - Provider is the only place that knows how state is managed - state-context-interface -…

We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent

1 rule. 1 is common, 0 are distinctive, and 0 are very specific to this project.

  • 1

    Common

    Most of the 29 edited versions we read keep these.

  • 0

    Distinctive

    This author's own choices. Worth a look.

  • 0

    Very specific

    Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.

  • Very specific
  1. Common:

    Read individual rule files for detailed explanations and code examples:

    line 73

“Common” is measured: kept by at least 6 in 10 of the 29 edited versions of this file we could read. “Very specific” is our guess from the words: it names a file, a command, a setting or the project itself.

Keep what fits and drop the rest. Your version, ready for your agents.

React Composition Patterns

Composition patterns for building flexible, maintainable React components. Avoid boolean prop proliferation by using compound components, lifting state, and composing internals. These patterns make codebases easier for both humans and AI agents to work with as they scale.

When to Apply

Reference these guidelines when:

  • Refactoring components with many boolean props
  • Building reusable component libraries
  • Designing flexible component APIs
  • Reviewing component architecture
  • Working with compound components or context providers

Rule Categories by Priority

PriorityCategoryImpactPrefix

2State ManagementMEDIUMstate-
3Implementation PatternsMEDIUMpatterns-
4React 19 APIsMEDIUMreact19-

Quick Reference

1. Component Architecture (HIGH)

  • architecture-avoid-boolean-props - Don't add boolean props to customize behavior; use composition
  • architecture-compound-components - Structure complex components with shared context

2. State Management (MEDIUM)

  • state-decouple-implementation - Provider is the only place that knows how state is managed
  • state-context-interface - Define generic interface with state, actions, meta for dependency injection
  • state-lift-state - Move state into provider components for sibling access

3. Implementation Patterns (MEDIUM)

  • patterns-explicit-variants - Create explicit variant components instead of boolean modes
  • patterns-children-over-render-props - Use children for composition instead of renderX props

4. React 19 APIs (MEDIUM)

⚠️ React 19+ only. Skip this section if using React 18 or earlier.

  • react19-no-forwardref - Don't use forwardRef; use use() instead of useContext()

How to Use

Read individual rule files for detailed explanations and code examples:

rules/architecture-avoid-boolean-props.md
rules/state-context-interface.md

Each rule file contains:

  • Brief explanation of why it matters
  • Incorrect code example with explanation
  • Correct code example with explanation
  • Additional context and references

Your trail

Files you open will collect here, so you can find them again.

Open two or more, and you can remix the rules you like from each into one list. Kept in this browser only.

Now do this for your own.

Bring your CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md or skills. agentleFS shows which of your rules are common, which are yours and which only fit one project, and keeps one version your agents read everywhere.
