ui-patterns

ui-patterns is a cursor rule for Cursor from proSamik/starterkit-nextjs-aisdk-betterauth-polar. It costs 0 tokens per session (1,366 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of ui-patterns, MIT.

A project guide for consistent sign-up, login, verification-code, form, and feedback interfaces in React projects using TypeScript and Tailwind CSS.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when building or reviewing authentication screens, multi-step forms, OTP fields, form state, validation, and user feedback.
Why use it?
It reduces inconsistent form behavior and repeated decisions about state, validation, multi-step navigation, and resend-code timers.

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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

ui-patterns 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 8d ago.

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.

This is a copy

100% identical to ui-patterns — 0 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.

UI Patterns and Components Guide

Overview

This project follows consistent UI patterns for authentication flows, form handling, and user feedback. All components use modern React patterns with TypeScript and Tailwind CSS.

Form Components and Patterns

State Management

Uses custom hook src/hooks/use-object-state.ts:

const [formData, setFormData] = useObjectState({
  email: "",
  password: "",
  otp: ""
});

// Update specific fields
setFormData({ email: "[email protected]" });

Resend Cooldown Hook

Custom hook src/hooks/use-resend-cooldown.ts:

const {
  isOnCooldown,
  formatCooldownTime,
  startCooldown,
} = useResendCooldown();

// Usage in component
{isOnCooldown 
  ? `Resend in ${formatCooldownTime()}`
  : "Didn't receive the code? Resend"
}

Authentication UI Components

Multi-Step Forms

Pattern used in src/app/(auth)/sign-up/page.tsx:

  • Step-based navigation with progress indicators
  • Back button functionality with proper state management
  • Conditional rendering based on current step
  • Form validation at each step

OTP Input Fields

Standardized OTP input pattern:

<Input
  type="text"
  placeholder="000000"
  value={state.otp}
  onChange={(e) => setState({ 
    otp: e.target.value.replace(/\D/g, "").slice(0, 6) 
  })}
  maxLength={6}
  className="text-center text-lg tracking-widest"
/>

Loading States

Consistent loading pattern with Lucide icons:

<Button disabled={loading}>
  {loading && <Loader className="mr-2 h-4 w-4 animate-spin" />}
  Button Text
</Button>

Card Layout Pattern

Standard Auth Card

Used across all auth pages:

<Card className="w-full max-w-md">
  <CardHeader className="space-y-1">
    <CardTitle className="text-2xl font-bold tracking-tight">
      Page Title
    </CardTitle>
    <CardDescription>
      Page description
    </CardDescription>
  </CardHeader>
  <CardContent className="space-y-4">
    {/* Form content */}
  </CardContent>
</Card>

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
