expo

expo is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from ericrisco/rsc-harness. It costs 79 tokens per session (2,964 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A guide to shipping React Native mobile apps with Expo, a toolchain for building, configuring, updating, and submitting apps.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it for cloud builds, app-store submissions, over-the-air JavaScript updates, build profiles, update channels, native configuration plugins, and SDK upgrades.
Why use it?
It organizes native settings and release work without requiring every change to be made directly in Xcode or Gradle projects. It also helps prevent updates from failing to reach the right app version.

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

expo 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 4d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (scripts/verify.sh), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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.

Expo & EAS: shipping React Native

Hand-off — the app vs its motion. This skill owns the Expo platform: router, config plugins, EAS, native modules, store builds. Animation and gestures — Reanimated worklets, the UI runtime, sheets, screen transitions, press feedback, haptics, motion that stutters on a real device — are ../motion-craft/SKILL.md's.

What this skill owns

Expo is the toolchain and EAS cloud platform layered on React Native: cloud builds, store submission, over-the-air JS updates, and native configuration declared in JavaScript instead of hand-edited Xcode/Gradle projects. This skill owns the shipping pipeline and native-config-via-JS.

The verb rule of thumb: if the verb is build / submit / update / prebuild / plugin / EAS / channel / runtime-version, you are in expo. If it is render / navigate / animate / bridge / write a native module, route to react-native. Other exits: web React/hooks/state → react, a Dart app → flutter, native-only Swift/Kotlin → swift-ios/kotlin-android, a desktop wrapper → tauri/electron, CI unrelated to EAS → github-actions.

Current stable as of 2026-06-02: Expo SDK 55 — React Native 0.83.1, React 19.2.0, shipped 2026-02-25. SDK 56 is in beta (beta opened 2026-05-06, ~2-week window; RN 0.85.2, React 19.2.3) — upcoming, not yet shipped stable. Both run exclusively on the New Architecture; the Legacy Architecture was removed in SDK 55.

Decision rules

Situation Do this Why / not that
New app, want config-as-JS managed + prebuild (CNG) — no committed ios//android/ native dirs are regenerable artifacts; hand-edits get blown away
You truly need to hand-edit native code long-term bare (commit ios//android/) last resort; you lose prebuild --clean upgrades
Quick demo, only Expo-SDK modules Expo Go zero build, but custom native deps will crash
Any custom native dependency or plugin dev build (developmentClient: true) Expo Go cannot load arbitrary native code
Runtime version, picking a policy fingerprint (auto-bumps on native change) safest default; prevents serving JS to an incompatible binary
Runtime tied to your release version appVersion simpler, but you must remember to bump it on native changes

What ships with it

5 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.

expo is a skill published in the GitHub repository ericrisco/rsc-harness (70 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed MIT. It adds 79 tokens to every session and 2,964 once invoked, about $0.0004 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-09-03.
