interaction-patterns

interaction-patterns is a skill for Claude Code from aneja5/forge-skills. It costs 54 tokens per session (1,445 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A set of shared rules for how people interact with interface elements, such as modals, bottom sheets, loading states, gestures, and destructive actions. It also covers keyboard behavior, scrolling, and touch-target sizes.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to decide interaction behavior before building features, including when to expand, navigate, confirm, undo, or show loading feedback.
Why use it?
It keeps interactions predictable across screens and devices instead of making each feature behave differently.

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

interaction-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 2mo 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.

Interaction Patterns

Overview

Define the canonical interaction for every UI primitive before features get built. Output is .forge/interaction-patterns.md — the decision tree for each interaction (expand vs navigate, modal vs bottom sheet, optimistic vs pessimistic UI, undo vs confirm), the tap-target minimums, the keyboard and scroll behavior, and the documented anti-patterns. Paired with design-system (which defines the look) and accessibility (which defines the floor).

When to Use

  • A new product or major feature is being designed and no interaction conventions exist
  • Mobile and desktop are drifting (centered modals on mobile, no swipe affordances)
  • Destructive actions have inconsistent UX (some have confirm, some have undo, some have neither)
  • A new component category is being introduced (e.g., first time adding command palette, drawer, popover)
  • Loading states are inconsistent (skeletons on one page, spinners on another)

When NOT to Use

  • A single interaction tweak inside one screen — that's incremental-implementation
  • Backend-only services
  • Accessibility-specific decisions (those go in accessibility)

Common Rationalizations

Thought Reality
"Desktop patterns work on mobile" Centered dialogs on mobile are unreachable with one thumb. Modal trap UX on a touchscreen is hostile.
"Users will figure it out" If it needs figuring out, it's broken. Every interaction that needs explanation costs a support ticket.
"We don't need loading states for fast operations" Fast on your dev machine is slow on a train in rural India. The user can't see your machine.
"Undo is too complex" Undo is cheaper than a confirmation dialog and faster than user anxiety. The only complex undo is the one nobody designed for.
"Swipe is obvious from native apps" Swipe with no visual affordance is a hidden feature. Discoverability requires a hint.
"Optimistic UI is risky" The risk is rollback messaging, not optimism. Pessimistic UI is a 300ms spinner every interaction.

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.
