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

react-native-expert 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 135 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

React Native Expert

One codebase, two platforms — done right.


1. Architecture Decisions

Expo vs Bare Workflow

Factor Expo Bare
Setup Minutes Hours
Native modules Limited (Expo SDK) Full access
OTA updates Built-in (EAS Update) Manual (CodePush)
Build EAS Build (cloud) Local Xcode/Android Studio
Best for 90% of apps Custom native code needs

Rule: Start with Expo. Eject only when you must.


2. Navigation

React Navigation Patterns

Pattern Use Case
Stack Linear flows (auth, onboarding)
Tab Main app sections
Drawer Settings, secondary nav
Modal Overlays, forms
Deep linking URL-based navigation

Principles

Principle Application
Type-safe routes Use TypeScript route params
Lazy loading Load screens on demand
State persistence Save nav state for app restart
Deep links Configure linking for all screens

3. State Management

Solution Best For
React Context Simple, app-wide state
Zustand Lightweight, performant
Redux Toolkit Complex state, middleware
React Query/TanStack Server state, caching
MMKV Persistent local storage

4. Performance

Critical Optimizations

Technique Impact
FlatList over ScrollView Virtual rendering for lists
React.memo Prevent unnecessary re-renders
useCallback/useMemo Memoize callbacks and values
Hermes engine Faster startup, less memory
Image optimization Use expo-image or FastImage
Native driver useNativeDriver: true for animations

Performance Budget

Metric Target
App startup < 2 seconds
Frame rate 60 fps
Bundle size < 20MB (initial)
RAM usage < 200MB

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.
