vue-inspect

vue-inspect is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from scott-fryxell/brayness. It costs 68 tokens per session (758 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A browser-based inspector for reading the live state of Vue 3 components, including values held by the Composition API. Vue is a JavaScript framework for building user interfaces.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to check a component’s current ref value, read its setup state, or walk through the Vue component tree.
Why use it?
It lets developers inspect component values without installing a browser Devtools extension or adding console.log calls.

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

vue-inspect 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 12d 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 — 64 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

vue-inspect

Vue 3 exposes its whole runtime state on plain DOM nodes and component instances - no extension required. This skill is a set of copy-pasteable eval snippets (run via agent-browser eval "(() => { ... })()") that walk that internal state to answer "what does this component actually think its data is right now."

It exists because agent-browser has native React Devtools integration (--enable react-devtools + react tree/react inspect/react renders) but nothing built in for Vue. These snippets close that gap using Vue 3's own internals directly.

When to use

  • Runtime-dependent state: what a ref/prop/computed actually is right now (mid-animation, post-interaction), what's actually mounted, whether a component exists in the rendered tree at all.
  • Not for static reads - prop definitions and template markup live in the source file; go read it instead.

Quick start

Confirm the page is a Vue 3 app and get the version:

agent-browser eval "document.querySelector('#app').__vue_app__.version"

If #app isn't the mount point, find it: Vue attaches __vue_app__ to whatever element was passed to app.mount(...). document.querySelector('[data-v-app]') or inspecting the root of the visible DOM tree usually finds it if the id differs.

Full reference snippets (tree walker, name-finder, state reader) live in references/api-surface.md - copy them directly into an eval call.

The one gotcha that will cost you time

setupState auto-unwraps top-level refs. setup.some_ref is the raw value (0, false, {...}), not a ref object - setup.some_ref?.value silently returns undefined. Check typeof setup.some_ref before assuming you need .value. Full explanation in references/troubleshooting-workarounds.md.

Files

  • references/api-surface.md - the internal properties (__vue_app__, subTree, setupState, type.name) and the three core snippets (tree walker, name-finder, state reader).
  • references/common-use-cases.md - worked examples: reading a ref, finding a v-for instance, checking props, confirming mount/unmount, reading provide/inject, catching a mid-animation state.
  • references/troubleshooting-workarounds.md - known failure modes (ref unwrapping, functional components, Teleport/Suspense/KeepAlive, multiple apps, Vue 2 differences, prod build name-mangling) with fixes.

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.
