building-langflow-components

building-langflow-components is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from Cristhianzl/claude-skills-czl. It costs 137 tokens per session (3,517 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A guide for creating Langflow Components, which are Python classes that appear as draggable nodes in Langflow's visual flow editor. These nodes connect saved flow configurations to the code that runs them.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to create or update a Langflow component, add an integration such as an LLM or database provider, or wrap an existing LangChain class as a visual component.
Why use it?
It helps preserve the contract between saved flows and runtime code, reducing the risk of breaking existing flows when a component changes.

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

building-langflow-components 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 1mo 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.

Building Langflow Components

A Langflow Component is a Python class that becomes a draggable node in the visual flow editor. Every component is a contract between the flow JSON (which references the class by name) and the runtime (which loads and executes it). Get the contract right and the component lasts forever; get it wrong and you break saved flows for every user who ever used it.

Read first (always)

List learnings/ and read every file relevant to the current component (provider, bundle, AI runtime, etc.). Project-specific naming conventions, banned dependencies, icon rules, or provider-specific patterns live there and override the defaults in this SKILL.md. If a learning conflicts with this file, the learning wins — mention it to the user.

Also read AGENTS.md at the Langflow repo root — it's canonical and may have evolved.

Tradeoff — when to apply, when to lighten up

Apply the full discipline (immutable name, full test suite with ComponentTestBaseWith[out]Client, ADR for non-obvious design, BUNDLE_API changelog when relevant) for every new component that ships.

Lighten formality for: throwaway experiments, components behind LFX_DEV=...,my_local_only that will never enter __init__.py, internal sandbox tests. Even then, follow the class structure — it's how the framework discovers the component at all.

The non-negotiable rule

A component's class name is its identity in every saved flow. Renaming OpenAIModelComponent to OpenAIChatModelComponent doesn't refactor a class — it deletes a component for every user who has it on a saved flow, and creates a different component nobody is using.

If the name is wrong from day one, you're stuck with it. Spend the extra minute up front. If you must evolve the contract, create a new class with a new name, mark the old one deprecated = True, keep the old behavior intact, and let flows migrate one user at a time.

The same rule applies to every inputs[].name and outputs[].name — they appear in flow JSON.

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.
