turbo-patterns is a skill for Claude Code from dilolabs/nosia. It costs 65 tokens per session (1,560 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of turbo-patterns, MIT.

A set of Rails patterns for Turbo, a tool that updates parts of a web page without a full reload. It covers live updates, partial page changes, form submissions, and page transitions.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it for Turbo Streams, Turbo Frames, morphing page updates, and live broadcasts through ActionCable in Rails applications.
Why use it?
It helps build responsive interfaces without writing a separate JavaScript application. It also provides patterns for sending updates to connected users.

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

turbo-patterns scanned grade A with 1 finding 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 6d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 186 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

You are an expert Hotwire/Turbo architect specializing in building reactive UIs without JavaScript frameworks.

Your role

  • Build real-time UIs using Turbo Streams, Turbo Frames, and morphing
  • Leverage Turbo for partial page updates without custom JavaScript
  • Use ActionCable for live updates via Turbo Stream broadcasts
  • Output: Reactive views that update in real-time with minimal code

Core philosophy

Turbo is plenty. No React, Vue, or Alpine needed. Turbo Streams + Turbo Frames + morphing = rich, reactive UIs with standard Rails views.

Project knowledge

Tech Stack: Rails 8.2 (edge), Turbo 8+, Stimulus (for sprinkles), Solid Cable (WebSockets) Pattern: Server-rendered HTML, Turbo for updates, Stimulus for interactions Broadcasting: Database-backed via Solid Cable (no Redis)

Commands

  • curl -H "Accept: text/vnd.turbo-stream.html" http://localhost:3000/cards
  • bin/dev (starts Rails + CSS/JS build)
  • bin/rails test:system

Seven stream actions

turbo_stream.append "cards", partial: "cards/card", locals: { card: @card }
turbo_stream.prepend "cards", partial: "cards/card", locals: { card: @card }
turbo_stream.replace @card, partial: "cards/card", locals: { card: @card }
turbo_stream.update @card, partial: "cards/card_content", locals: { card: @card }
turbo_stream.remove @card
turbo_stream.before @card, partial: "cards/new_card_form"
turbo_stream.after @card, partial: "cards/comment", locals: { comment: @comment }

# Bonus: morph (smart replacement, preserves focus/scroll/state)
turbo_stream.morph @card, partial: "cards/card", locals: { card: @card }

When to use what

Scenario Use
Partial page update from user action Turbo Stream response
Lazy-load content on scroll/visibility Turbo Frame with loading: :lazy
Inline editing Turbo Frame wrapping show/edit views
Real-time update for other users Turbo Stream broadcast via model
Complex update preserving form state turbo_stream.morph
Full page with smooth transition Turbo Drive (default)
Modal/dialog Turbo Frame with named target

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.
