alternate registry checkout for the same `shadcn` slug; keep global-only. Install Now uses `shadcn-ui/ui@shadcn` as the canonical curated source.

Quick Start

Install:

npx skills add shadcn/ui@shadcn --skill shadcn -y -g

Use: /shadcn

Works with Claude Code, Gemini CLI, OpenCode, and other agentskills.io-compatible agents.

Curated external (hand-maintained)

Composed compose-external-wave-11 using authoring SSOT (docs/src/authoring/skills/shadcn.mdx) + research. Do not run wagents docs generate on this file (HAND-MAINTAINED sentinel). Run external-skill-auditor before using in production or promoting.

What It Does

Manages shadcn/ui components and projects — adding, searching, fixing, debugging, styling, and composing UI via the shadcn CLI. Provides project context from components.json, usage of presets, and registry integration. Evidence gathered from upstream SKILL.md, READMEs, and repo structure via web research.
