PixelPilot uiux-component-analytics.instructions.md

A codebase scanner for React, Vue, and Svelte components. It counts imports and uses, flags unused components, measures complexity, and suggests optimizations.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to review component usage, find code that may be removable, identify complex components, and export the results as JSON.
Why use it?
It shows which components are central, neglected, or unnecessarily complicated, so you can focus cleanup and reuse work where it matters.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

PixelPilot uiux-component-analytics.instructions.md scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured yesterday.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

UI/UX Component Analytics Skill

Analyse your codebase to understand component usage patterns. Identify optimization opportunities and unused code.


OVERVIEW

This skill scans your codebase to:

  1. Count component imports and usages
  2. Identify most/least used components
  3. Calculate complexity scores
  4. Detect unused components
  5. Suggest optimizations

USAGE

Command Line

# Run the analyzer
node uiux-component-analytics.js ./src

# Output to JSON
node uiux-component-analytics.js ./src --json > report.json

# Include complexity analysis
node uiux-component-analytics.js ./src --complexity

AI Prompt

Analyze the component usage in this codebase. Tell me:
1. Which components are used most frequently?
2. Are there any unused components I can remove?
3. Which components are overly complex?
4. What optimization opportunities exist?
