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

use-shadcn 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 2d 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.

What it actually says

Purpose

Build shadcn/ui components following monorepo structure and coding standards.

Steps

  1. Use MCP servers: Use shadcnui-official for single components/variants/canonical patterns, use shadcnui-jpisnice-react for full blocks/demos/page templates, only call MCP when unsure about implementation or encountering errors
  2. Install in @repo/ui: Install components in packages/ui/src/components/, ensure components.json points to @repo/ui/lib/utils and @repo/ui/components, follow existing component organization patterns
  3. Follow monorepo import patterns: Import from @repo/ui/components/* never directly from packages/ui, use @repo/ui/lib/utils for utilities like cn, import Radix primitives from @repo/ui/radix never directly from @radix-ui/react-*
  4. Apply coding standards: Follow TypeScript rules (interfaces, type inference, RORO pattern), use class-variance-authority (cva) for variants, apply mobile-first responsive design, follow linting rules (Biome + ESLint)
  5. Verify and test: Run pnpm lint:fix to ensure code quality, verify imports work correctly in consuming apps, test component functionality and responsiveness
  6. Surfaces, not only primitives: After the component is installed, reshape screens with /use-frontend — do not treat a new primitive as the whole UI job

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.
