customize-starter

A set of instructions for turning a React starter project—a prebuilt code template—into a named application. It identifies the files containing the template name and demo content.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when renaming a project, replacing the starter's example home page, updating environment and Docker settings, or creating the project's README.
Why use it?
It gives you a focused checklist for removing example material and updating project settings without searching the entire codebase.

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

customize-starter 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 75 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Customize Starter

Use this when a user is adapting this boilerplate into their own project. The files that contain starter/demo content are listed below, so there is no need to scan the whole repo. Edit only what the user asks for; confirm before deleting.

1. Rename the project

  • package.json - update name, version (reset to 0.1.0), and add a description.
  • index.html - update the <title>.
  • src/config/env.ts - the appName fallback defaults to 'React Boilerplate'; change it to the new project name.
  • .env.example (and the user's .env.development.local / .env.production.local) - set VITE_APP_NAME to the new project name.
  • docker-compose.yml - update image and container_name (currently react-boilerplate).
  • README.md - replace with the new project's README.

2. Remove the demo feature

The "home" feature is a placeholder example. To remove it:

  • Delete src/features/home/ (contains components/HomePage.tsx and components/__tests__/HomePage.test.tsx).
  • src/app/App.tsx - it renders <HomePage />; replace with the real root.
  • src/i18n/locales/en/common.json and src/i18n/locales/ar/common.json - remove the demo keys (home.*, actions.increment) and keep/add real ones. Keep keys in sync across every locale.

3. Set up analytics & monitoring

  • .env.development.local / .env.production.local - fill in the GA4 and Sentry values for the new project:
    • VITE_ANALYTICS_ENABLED=true, VITE_GA_MEASUREMENT_ID=G-…
    • VITE_SENTRY_ENABLED=true, VITE_SENTRY_DSN=https://…
    • Optionally set VITE_SENTRY_ENVIRONMENT, VITE_SENTRY_RELEASE, sample rates, and VITE_GA_DEBUG_MODE.
  • For Sentry source-map uploads in CI, set SENTRY_AUTH_TOKEN, SENTRY_ORG, and SENTRY_PROJECT as build-time secrets.
  • See the analytics-and-monitoring skill for usage patterns.

4. Optional cleanup

  • public/vite.svg - replace the favicon; update the <link rel="icon"> in index.html.
  • .cursor/skills/customize-starter/ - delete this skill once the project is set up (it only applies to the starter).

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.
