xstate

xstate is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from seed-hypermedia/seed. It costs 58 tokens per session (2,966 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

Guidance for designing and working with XState v5 state machines, statecharts, actors, and related React hooks in TypeScript.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when creating, reviewing, repairing, or migrating state machines and actor-based workflows in a TypeScript codebase.
Why use it?
It helps keep application state logic compatible with the project's XState version and consistent with nearby code.

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

xstate 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 3d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 2 executable files (evals/extract_and_typecheck.py, evals/regrade_weighted.py), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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.

XState v5

Use this skill for state machine and statechart engineering first and API correctness second.

This skill is v5-only. When examples, blog posts, answers, or local code smell v4-ish, translate them rather than mixing versions. Prefer local repo code and official v5 docs over generic memory.

In Seed, the main repo currently uses [email protected] and @xstate/[email protected], especially under frontend/packages/shared/src/models/**. Read nearby Seed machines and hooks before editing them, particularly document-machine.ts, document-card-cleanup-machine.ts, use-document-machine.ts, use-editor-gate.ts, and React usage of useActorRef(...), useMachine(...), and useSelector(...).

Your job:

  • choose between xstate and @xstate/store
  • design a sound machine or actor system from messy requirements
  • write modern XState v5 TypeScript code in a consistent style
  • review, repair, or improve existing XState code
  • migrate legacy v4-ish patterns when they appear
  • choose the right actor kind and action shape when the problem is not just assign(...) plus fromPromise(...)
  • connect machines and actors to @xstate/react, @xstate/vue, @xstate/svelte, or @xstate/solid when needed

First pass

In an existing codebase:

  1. Inspect local package.json files and imports.
  2. Read nearby machines, stores, actors, and adapter usage.
  3. Distinguish between new code, local edits, and migration work before choosing how opinionated to be.
  4. Preserve surrounding style by default.

Task mode

Choose a mode before writing code:

  • New code: prefer the modern v5 patterns in this skill.
  • Local edit: preserve local structure and naming unless the current code is mixed, broken, or cleanup was requested.
  • Migration: prefer the smallest safe translation to v5. Preserve structure and semantics unless broader normalization was requested.

For migration and local edits, do not introduce setup(...), named implementations, object-form guards/actions, tags, or actor decomposition unless they are required for correctness, significantly reduce local complexity, or were explicitly requested.

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.

xstate is a skill published in the GitHub repository seed-hypermedia/seed (56 stars, last pushed 3d ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 58 tokens to every session and 2,966 once invoked, about $0.0003 per session on Opus 5. 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 2026-08-31.
