OpenTUI Platform Skill

Install and use the Skill

1. Install the Skill

   Install the upstream Skill with its framework and concept reference files.

   npx skills add msmps/opentui-skill --skill opentui

2. Describe the terminal interface

   Specify the desired framework, interactions and target terminal environment.

   Create an OpenTUI React dashboard with a list, detail pane and keyboard navigation. Explain how to test the interaction.

About this Skill

Choose an OpenTUI framework and use task-specific references to build components, layout and keyboard interactions for terminal applications.

Why we picked it

Routes terminal UI tasks to references for components, layout, keyboard input, animation and testing.

What it helps with

• Build a terminal dashboard with React or Solid and keyboard navigation.
• Find reference patterns for OpenTUI layout, input handling or test rendering.

Scope and limitations

The Skill supplies reference guidance; OpenTUI itself and any selected framework must be installed in the target project. The upstream README records the framework revision on which its references are based.

The documentation also describes optional debugging features that can record raw terminal input. Review their configuration before enabling them.

Before you use it

• A coding agent that can read the bundled references and an OpenTUI project. The upstream README lists Bun or Node.js 26.4.0+ with experimental FFI for the native renderer; check the current OpenTUI documentation for platform and build requirements.
