mobile-react-native

mobile-react-native is a skill for Claude Code from lookatitude/guild. It costs 0 tokens per session (743 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A mobile development tool that writes React Native and Expo components in TypeScript. React Native lets one codebase target iOS and Android, while Expo provides tools for building those apps.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to build typed mobile screens and components, optimize lists and animations, and document any required iOS or Android modules.
Why use it?
It helps handle platform differences, performance limits, permissions, navigation behavior, and native code requirements explicitly.

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

mobile-react-native 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 2mo 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 — 45 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

mobile-react-native

The JS thread is a scarce resource, and every bridge hop is paid in frames.

What you do

Write RN / Expo that treats the bridge as the bottleneck it is. Keep renders pure and small, offload heavy work to native modules or worklets (Reanimated / Hermes), and handle platform differences explicitly rather than hoping one code path works.

  • Use TypeScript with strict mode; any is a last resort.
  • Prefer the New Architecture (TurboModules, Fabric) when the project already uses it; otherwise keep bridge calls batched and rare.
  • Animate on the UI thread via Reanimated worklets — not via setState loops.
  • Branch platform-specific behavior with Platform.select or .ios.tsx / .android.tsx, never with hidden conditionals.
  • List rendering: FlatList / FlashList with stable keys, getItemLayout, and virtualization; avoid ScrollView for long lists.
  • Handle permissions, back-button, safe-area, and keyboard behaviors per-platform explicitly.

Output shape

TypeScript source plus native-module notes:

  1. Component(s) — .tsx files, typed props, memoized where it pays off.
  2. Native modules — any platform code (Swift / Kotlin / Objective-C++), with integration steps.
  3. Platform file pairs — .ios.tsx / .android.tsx when divergence is real.
  4. Build notes — Expo config plugins or bare-workflow Gradle / Podfile changes.
  5. Tests — Jest + React Native Testing Library for logic, Detox / Maestro note for E2E if relevant.

Anti-patterns

  • Rendering on the JS thread when it should be a Reanimated worklet — drops frames.
  • Excessive bridge traffic — per-frame messages or large JSON blobs over the bridge.
  • Platform-specific bugs papered over with a silent if (Platform.OS === 'ios') buried in logic.
  • ScrollView containing hundreds of items — kills memory on low-end Android.
  • Inline anonymous components or un-memoized handlers inside hot lists.
  • any spreading through props — types lose meaning.

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.

mobile-react-native is a skill published in the GitHub repository lookatitude/guild (8 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed MIT. It costs nothing until one of its globs matches a file; then it loads 743 tokens. 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.
