Agent Skill

Attaform ships an Agent Skill: a SKILL.md that teaches a coding assistant how to actually build a form, distilled from real Attaform apps into a short list of recipes and rules. Point an agent at it and the first form it writes reaches for useForm, binds with v-register, and submits through handleSubmit, no correction round needed.

Attaform hands your coding assistant the same map the humans get. Three artifacts, all kept honest by the build: this installable skill, a curated llms.txt index, and a full-text llms-full.txt dump. Left to guess, a low-context model reaches for whatever it assumes a form library looks like: the wrong import, a hand-rolled v-model, a write straight through values. The skill replaces that guess with the real shape. Where llms.txt is a reference an agent reads, the skill is guidance an agent follows while it writes.

It is built for progressive disclosure. The main file covers the common case end to end: the import surface, the build-a-form shape, the core rules, and short wizard and SSR summaries. It links five reference files an agent loads only when the task reaches their area, served alongside it under references/: wizards, errors, custom components, SSR, and validation. The lean main keeps the everyday case cheap, and the depth is one hop away when a form needs it.

Install it into your project

SKILL.md is the portable skill format, read natively by Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, OpenCode, and more, so one file serves every assistant. The skill travels inside the attaform package, so one command copies it into place. From your project root:

npx attaform skill

With no argument it places the skill next to whichever assistants your project already uses, reading .claude/, .cursor/, .codex/, and .agents/, and falls back to the vendor-neutral .agents/skills/ when it finds none. It prints where each copy lands. Aim it at a specific folder with a trailing path, for example npx attaform skill .cursor/skills.

Run it again after you upgrade Attaform to refresh the skill in place: because it ships inside the package, running it in a project that has Attaform installed copies that exact version's skill, with no separate download to drift out of sync.

The skill ships under skills/ in the package, the same layout the ecosystem's skill loaders scan node_modules for, so those tools discover it too. You can also place it by hand from node_modules/attaform/skills/attaform/:

cp -r node_modules/attaform/skills/attaform .agents/skills/

Assistant folders like .claude/ and .cursor/ are often gitignored, so commit the installed skill directory if you want your whole team to share it. Either way, the assistant loads the Attaform skill whenever it works on a form in your repo.

When to reach for it

Install the skill for an assistant working inside your codebase: every form it touches then follows the idioms without a reminder. For a one-off form in a chat window, the lighter llms.txt index is enough to paste; for a capable agent with room to spare, hand it the whole llms-full.txt manual. All three point the same direction: the schema is the form, v-register binds it, and handleSubmit ships it.
