create-react-native-library

A setup tool for creating React Native libraries, either as standalone packages or as local modules inside an app. React Native lets JavaScript code build mobile interfaces and use native iOS or Android functionality.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to create a publishable library, add native functionality to an existing React Native app, wrap a native software development kit, or build native user-interface components.
Why use it?
It provides the starting project structure and directs the work to the appropriate implementation guidance for JavaScript libraries, native modules, and native views.

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

create-react-native-library 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.

Create React Native Library

Overview

Use this skill to scaffold a standalone React Native library or a local library inside an existing app, then continue with the correct implementation docs.

Examples:

  • JS-only library that may use other React Native libraries
  • Native modules that expose native functionality to JavaScript
  • Native UI components that render native views in React Native

Choose one flow first:

  • Use [scaffold-library.md][scaffold-library] when creating a new library that may be published to npm
  • Use [local-library.md][local-library] when exposing native functionality in a React Native app

When to Apply

Use this skill when:

  • Creating or working on a React Native library with create-react-native-library
  • Creating a native module or view in an existing app
  • Wrapping native SDKs and exposing them to React Native

Quick Reference

# Inspect current options before scaffolding
npx create-react-native-library@latest --help

# Scaffold a library with turbo modules and the Expo example app
npx create-react-native-library@latest awesome-library \
  --no-interactive \
  --yes \
  --description "A brief description of the library" \
  --type turbo-module \
  --languages kotlin-objc \
  --example expo

# Scaffold a local Turbo Module inside an existing app
cd MyApp
npx create-react-native-library@latest awesome-library \
  --local \
  --no-interactive \
  --yes \
  --description "A brief description of the library" \
  --type turbo-module \
  --languages kotlin-objc

What ships with it

3 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

Changes

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.
