igniteui-react-components

A guide for choosing and using Ignite UI components in React, including ready-made controls for web interfaces. It covers installation, imports, JSX, events, references, forms, and TypeScript.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when setting up Ignite UI in a React project, choosing controls, writing JSX, handling events and forms, using refs, or integrating components with TypeScript.
Why use it?
It helps developers select components that fit a UI requirement and use the correct React patterns. This reduces errors caused by incorrect package choices, imports, or component usage.

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

igniteui-react-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 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.

Ignite UI for React Components

Prerequisites

  • The Ignite UI CLI MCP server (igniteui-cli) available as a tool provider

AGENT INSTRUCTION — MCP Server Setup (REQUIRED)

Before using the Ignite UI CLI MCP tools, you MUST verify the MCP server is available by calling list_components. If the tool is not available or the call fails, you MUST automatically configure it by following the setup process steps described below.

After writing the file, inform the user that the MCP server has been configured and they may need to reload the editor for the tools to activate. Start the MCP server and wait for that MCP server to start before continuing the component-related work. Do NOT skip this step or ask the user to do it manually.

Setting Up the Ignite UI CLI MCP Server

Full setup instructions for VS Code, Cursor, Claude Desktop, and JetBrains IDEs are in reference/MCP-SERVER.md. Read that file for editor-specific configuration steps and verification.

What ships with it

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.
