opentui - SKILL.md Agent Skill

name: opentui description: Build terminal UIs with OpenTUI. Covers the core API, keymaps, React and Solid bindings, components, layout, keyboard input, plugins, and testing.

OpenTUI Skill

Canonical reference docs are authored once in sibling docs/**/*.mdx files.

Inside the OpenTUI repo, this skill root lives at packages/web/src/content/, so the same files are also visible at packages/web/src/content/docs/**/*.mdx.

Path invariant

/docs/<slug> maps to docs/<slug>.mdx relative to this skill root
in the repo, that same slug maps to packages/web/src/content/docs/<slug>.mdx

Reading order by area

Components: /docs/components/text, /docs/components/input
Layout: /docs/core-concepts/layout
Keyboard: /docs/core-concepts/keyboard

Quick routing by intent

Intent(s)	Start here
`getting-started`, `installation`, `quickstart`, `intro`	`docs/getting-started.mdx`
`core`, `renderer`, `terminal`, `scrollback`, `lifecycle`	`docs/core-concepts/renderer.mdx`
`keymap`, `keybindings`, `shortcuts`, `commands`, `leader`	`docs/keymap/overview.mdx`
`layout`, `flexbox`, `yoga`, `positioning`	`docs/core-concepts/layout.mdx`
`keyboard`, `input`, `keybindings`, `paste`, `focus`	`docs/core-concepts/keyboard.mdx`
`react`, `jsx`, `hooks`, `animation`, `testing`	`docs/bindings/react.mdx`
`solid`, `signals`, `jsx`, `hooks`, `animation`, `testing`	`docs/bindings/solid.mdx`
`plugins`, `plugin`, `slots`, `registry`, `extensions`	`docs/plugins/slots.mdx`
`text`, `styling`, `content`, `selection`	`docs/components/text.mdx`
`input`, `form`, `editing`, `focus`	`docs/components/input.mdx`
`env`, `environment`, `configuration`, `flags`	`docs/reference/env-vars.mdx`

For concrete component requests, jump straight to docs/components/<name>.mdx after the relevant entry page. For plugin implementation details, narrow from docs/plugins/slots.mdx into docs/plugins/core.mdx, docs/plugins/react.mdx, or docs/plugins/solid.mdx.

Working rules

Prefer the current entry pages first, then read narrower docs in the same section.
Read the sibling docs/**/*.mdx files directly instead of copying prose into this file.
Use stable /docs/... URLs when cross-referencing docs.
