Test it

Using "tailwind-v4-shadcn". Set up Tailwind v4 and shadcn/ui in a fresh Vite React project.

Expected outcome:

  • A setup checklist with package installs, Vite plugin configuration, shadcn config updates, and file templates.
  • A note to confirm package manager commands before execution.
  • Verification steps for semantic colors and dark mode.

Using "tailwind-v4-shadcn". bg-primary does not apply styles after upgrading to Tailwind v4.

Expected outcome:

  • Diagnosis that semantic utilities are missing because theme variables were not mapped.
  • Recommended CSS variable and @theme mapping changes.
  • A follow-up check for duplicate hsl wrapping and misplaced base layers.

Using "tailwind-v4-shadcn". Migrate a Tailwind v3 app that uses config-based colors and animation plugins.

Expected outcome:

  • A migration sequence that removes legacy config use, updates plugins, and moves theme tokens into CSS.
  • A risk list for visual regressions, PostCSS conflicts, and @apply usage.
  • A test plan covering light mode, dark mode, and shadcn components.

Security Audit

v4 โ€ข 7/5/2026 Open versioned report

Static analysis flagged many patterns, but review found documentation snippets, setup examples, source links, and normal configuration values. No prompt injection, malware intent, credential access, or data exfiltration behavior was found. The remaining operational risk is ordinary package installation and file changes when a user applies the setup guidance.

What You Can Build

Start a Vite React UI

Create a new Vite React project with Tailwind v4, shadcn/ui, path aliases, and dark mode support.

Fix Theme Problems

Resolve broken bg-primary utilities, duplicate base layers, dark mode failures, and animation import errors.

Migrate from Tailwind v3

Move theme settings from config files into CSS variables and update plugins for Tailwind v4.

Try These Prompts

Create a New Setup
Set up Tailwind v4 with shadcn/ui in my Vite React project. Use the skill templates and explain each file change before applying it.
Add to Existing Project
Review my existing Vite React project and add Tailwind v4 with shadcn/ui. Preserve current app code and list any conflicting files first.
Debug Theme Failures
Use the Tailwind v4 shadcn guidance to diagnose why my semantic colors or dark mode are not working. Show the likely cause and a fix plan.
Plan a v3 Migration
Audit my Tailwind v3 setup and create a migration plan for Tailwind v4 and shadcn/ui. Include risks, file changes, and verification steps.

Best Practices

  • Confirm the framework, package manager, and Tailwind version before applying setup steps.
  • Compare templates against existing files before replacing project configuration.
  • Test a shadcn component, semantic colors, and light or dark theme switching after changes.

Avoid

  • Do not use this skill unchanged for Tailwind v3, Next.js, or non-React projects.
  • Do not delete existing Tailwind config before checking for project-specific theme customizations.
  • Do not mix PostCSS setup and the Vite plugin unless the project requires both.
