Rayden Code Skill

Overview

Generate production-quality React + Tailwind CSS code using the Rayden UI component library (34 components). The skill loads a complete API reference with every component, every prop, design tokens, layout patterns, and an explicit anti-pattern ban list — preventing hallucinated components and generic AI output. Built on the Rayna UI design system.

When to Use This Skill

• You're building a new page or feature using Rayden UI components
• You want to scaffold a dashboard, landing page, auth screen, settings page, or data table
• You need to generate React code that follows a specific design system precisely
• You want to prototype UI quickly with correct component usage and premium aesthetics
• You're vibe coding and want design-system-compliant output

How It Works

1. Parses the request — Identifies page type, required components, and data model
2. Loads RAYDEN_RULES.md — Complete reference: 34 components with full props, design philosophy, token classes, layout patterns, anti-patterns, and accessibility rules
3. Plans the layout — Decides page structure, component selection, spacing, color, and elevation strategy
4. Generates code — Writes React + Tailwind CSS using only documented components and token classes
5. Self-validates — Runs a 16-point checklist covering correctness (valid components/props, token usage, nesting) and design quality (whitespace, hierarchy, restraint, responsiveness)

Examples

Vibe code a SaaS dashboard

/rayden-code a dashboard with KPI cards, a recent orders table, and an activity feed

Use case: You're building an internal analytics tool and need a full dashboard page with MetricsCard grid, sortable Table, and ActivityFeed sidebar — all with correct Rayden imports and token classes.

Scaffold a login page

/rayden-code login page with email and password

Use case: You need a centered auth form with Input components, a primary Button, and proper visual hierarchy — following Rayden's "Auth / Focused Form" pattern.

Build an admin settings page

/rayden-code settings page with profile section, notification toggles, and danger zone

Use case: You're adding a settings area to your app and need form sections with Toggle components, a destructive action zone, and a single-column constrained layout.

Create a pricing page

/rayden-code pricing page with 3 tiers and a feature comparison table

Use case: You need a marketing pricing section with Card components for each tier, Badge for the recommended plan, and a Table for feature comparison.

Build an e-commerce product grid

/rayden-code product catalog with filters, search, and a card grid

Use case: You're building a storefront and need a responsive product grid with Chip filters, Input search, Pagination, and Cards with images — all using Rayden's layout and spacing rules.

Best Practices

• Describe what you want in plain language — the skill maps your request to the right components
• Install @raydenui/ui in your project first (npm install @raydenui/ui)
• Import @raydenui/ui/styles.css in your app entry point for design tokens to work
• Review generated code for business logic — the skill handles UI, not data fetching
• Use alongside /rayden-use if you also want the same design built in Figma

Security & Safety Notes

• This skill only reads its bundled rules file and writes code to your project
• No external network requests
• No secrets or credentials involved
• Generated code uses standard React patterns with no eval or dynamic code execution

Common Pitfalls

| Problem | Solution | |---------|----------| | Components not rendering correctly | Ensure @raydenui/ui/styles.css is imported in your app entry | | "Component doesn't exist" error | The skill only uses documented components — check if you're asking for something Rayden doesn't have | | Colors look wrong | Use token classes (bg-primary-500) not hex values. Ensure the Rayden CSS is loaded | | Layout not responsive | The skill generates responsive code by default — check that your viewport meta tag is set |
