Trigger: When working inside ui/ on Prowler-specific conventions (shadcn vs HeroUI legacy, folder placement, actions/adapters, shared types/hooks/lib).

## Related Generic Skills
- `typescript` - Const types, flat interfaces

- `nextjs-15` - App Router, Server Actions
- `tailwind-4` - cn() utility, styling rules
- `zod-4` - Schema validation
- `zustand-5` - State management
- `ai-sdk-5` - Chat/AI features
- `playwright` - E2E testing (see also `prowler-test-ui`)
## Tech Stack (Versions)
```
Next.js 15.5.9 | React 19.2.2 | Tailwind 4.1.13 | shadcn/ui
Zod 4.1.11 | React Hook Form 7.62.0 | Zustand 5.0.8
NextAuth 5.0.0-beta.30 | Recharts 2.15.4
HeroUI 2.8.4 (LEGACY - do not add new components)
```
## CRITICAL: Component Library Rule
- **ALWAYS**: Use `shadcn/ui` + Tailwind (`components/shadcn/`)
- **NEVER**: Add new HeroUI components (`components/ui/` is legacy only)
## DECISION TREES
### Component Placement
```
New feature UI? → shadcn/ui + Tailwind
Existing HeroUI feature? → Keep HeroUI (don't mix)
Used 1 feature? → features/{feature}/components/
Used 2+ features? → components/shared/
Needs state/hooks? → "use client"
Server component? → No directive needed
```
### Code Location
```
Server action → actions/{feature}/{feature}.ts
Data transform → actions/{feature}/{feature}.adapter.ts
Types (shared 2+) → types/{domain}.ts
Types (local 1) → {feature}/types.ts
Utils (shared 2+) → lib/
Utils (local 1) → {feature}/utils/
Hooks (shared 2+) → hooks/
Hooks (local 1) → {feature}/hooks.ts
shadcn components → components/shadcn/
HeroUI components → components/ui/ (LEGACY)
```
### Styling Decision
```
Tailwind class exists? → className
Dynamic value? → style prop
Conditional styles? → cn()
Static only? → className (no cn())
Recharts/library? → CHART_COLORS constant + var()
```
### Scope Rule (ABSOLUTE)
- Used 2+ places → `lib/` or `types/` or `hooks/` (components go in `components/{domain}/`)
- Used 1 place → keep local in feature directory
- **This determines ALL folder structure decisions**

```
## Recharts (Special Case)
For Recharts props that don't accept className:
```typescript
const CHART_COLORS = {
primary: "var(--color-primary)",
secondary: "var(--color-secondary)",
text: "var(--color-text)",
gridLine: "var(--color-border)",
};
// Only use var() for library props, NEVER in className
<XAxis tick={{ fill: CHART_COLORS.text }} />
<CartesianGrid stroke={CHART_COLORS.gridLine} />
```
## Form + Validation Pattern
```typescript
"use client";
import { useForm } from "react-hook-form";
import { zodResolver } from "@hookform/resolvers/zod";
import { z } from "zod";
const schema = z.object({
email: z.email(), // Zod 4 syntax
name: z.string().min(1),
});
type FormData = z.infer<typeof schema>;
export function MyForm() {
const { register, handleSubmit, formState: { errors } } = useForm<FormData>({
resolver: zodResolver(schema),
});
const onSubmit = async (data: FormData) => {
await serverAction(data);
};
return (
<form onSubmit={handleSubmit(onSubmit)}>
<input {...register("email")} />
{errors.email && <span>{errors.email.message}</span>}
<button type="submit">Submit</button>
</form>
);
}
```

This skill codifies Prowler UI conventions for building consistent, maintainable interfaces inside the ui/ folder. It enforces component placement, styling, shared types/hooks/lib decisions, and the shadcn vs HeroUI legacy rule to avoid mixing component libraries. Use it when authoring UI features, server actions, adapters, and shared utilities for the Prowler frontend.
It inspects where new components, hooks, types, actions, and utils should live and guides placement based on usage scope (single-use vs shared). It enforces using shadcn/ui + Tailwind for new components, preserves HeroUI only for legacy components, and applies Tailwind/cn()/style rules and Recharts color handling. It also maps form and validation patterns (React Hook Form + Zod) and server action/adapters conventions.
Can I add new HeroUI components?
No. HeroUI is legacy. New components must use shadcn/ui and live in components/shadcn/.
When should I create a shared hook or type?
If the code is used in two or more places, place hooks in hooks/ and types in types/. For single-use keep them local to the feature folder.
