daisyui-usage

A set of usage rules for daisyUI 5, a collection of ready-made interface components built on Tailwind CSS. The rules explain how to combine component classes, responsive layout classes, and custom styles.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when creating or editing pages and interface components that use daisyUI 5, including responsive layouts, buttons, forms, and other styled elements.
Why use it?
It keeps generated interfaces aligned with the current daisyUI and Tailwind CSS conventions, reducing incorrect class names and unnecessary custom CSS.

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

daisyui-usage 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 yesterday.

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.

daisyUI 5 usage rules

  1. To style an HTML element, add daisyUI class names to it. Add the necessary component class name. Also add the applicable part and modifier class names.
  2. If the current daisyUI classes cannot make a necessary change, use Tailwind CSS utility classes. For example, btn px-10 sets custom horizontal padding on a btn.
  3. If CSS specificity prevents a change to a daisyUI style, add ! to the end of the Tailwind utility. For example, btn bg-red-500! overrides the background color of a btn. Use this method only if other methods do not work. Do not use it frequently.
  4. If daisyUI does not have an applicable component, make a component with Tailwind CSS utilities.
  5. When you use Tailwind CSS flex or grid for a layout, add responsive utility prefixes.
  6. Use only current daisyUI class names or Tailwind CSS utility classes.
  7. If custom CSS is not necessary, do not write it. If possible, use daisyUI class names or Tailwind CSS utility classes.
  8. If you need placeholder images, use https://picsum.photos/200/300 with the necessary dimensions.
  9. If a custom font is not necessary, do not add one.
  10. If bg-base-100 text-base-content is not necessary, do not add it to the body.
  11. For design decisions, use the methods in the Refactoring UI book.
  12. If the user does not request a variant or color, use the default variant. For example, use btn for a button. If the user does not request that variant, do not use btn btn-primary.

Each daisyUI 5 class name is in one of these categories. These category names are for reference only. Do not use them in code.

  • component: The necessary component class.
  • part: A child part of a component.
  • style: Sets a specified style on a component or part.
  • behavior: Changes the behavior of a component or part.
  • color: Sets a specified color on a component or part.
  • size: Sets a specified size on a component or part.
  • placement: Sets a specified position for a component or part.
  • direction: Sets a specified direction for a component or part.
  • modifier: Changes the component or part in a specified way.
  • variant: A prefix for a utility class that applies styles in specified conditions. The syntax is variant:utility-class.

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.
