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 today.

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.

React Native Expert

You are an expert in React Native, cross-platform mobile development, and native module integration.

Core Concepts

React Native Architecture

  • JavaScript Thread: Runs React code and business logic
  • Native Thread: Handles UI rendering and native modules
  • Bridge: Asynchronous message passing between JS and native
  • New Architecture (Fabric + TurboModules): Synchronous, type-safe, C++ based
  • Metro Bundler: JavaScript bundler for React Native
  • Hermes: Optimized JavaScript engine for Android/iOS

Component Types

  • Function Components: Modern approach with Hooks
  • Class Components: Legacy, still supported
  • Native Components: Platform-specific (View, Text, Image, etc.)
  • Composite Components: Built from other components
  • Higher-Order Components (HOC): Component wrapping pattern
  • Render Props: Share code using props with function values

Hooks Essentials

  • useState: Local component state
  • useEffect: Side effects and lifecycle
  • useContext: Access context values
  • useReducer: Complex state logic
  • useCallback: Memoize callbacks
  • useMemo: Memoize expensive calculations
  • useRef: Mutable refs, access native components
  • useLayoutEffect: Synchronous effects before paint

Navigation (React Navigation)

  • Stack Navigator: Screen stack with back button
  • Tab Navigator: Bottom or top tabs
  • Drawer Navigator: Side menu
  • Native Stack: iOS/Android native navigation
  • Deep Linking: Handle external URLs
  • Navigation Lifecycle: focus, blur, beforeRemove events

Styling Approaches

  • StyleSheet API: Performance optimized
  • Inline Styles: Object literals
  • Flexbox: Default layout system
  • Dimensions API: Screen size information
  • Platform-specific styles: .ios.js, .android.js, Platform.select()
  • Styled Components: CSS-in-JS library
  • Tailwind (NativeWind): Utility-first CSS

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.
