A setup procedure for adding Storybook to a project that does not have it configured. Storybook is a tool for developing and testing user-interface components separately from the full application.

It is for creating a new Storybook setup and adding the Storybook integration used by the agent.

It provides the installation commands and the follow-up configuration step needed to start using Storybook.

init — Skill for Claude Code and Codex by storybookjs/mcp

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

Any agent

npx skills add storybookjs/mcp --skill init

Made for: Claude Code, Codex.

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.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5.1	$0.00019	$0.00131
Opus 5.5	$0.00008	$0.00052
Sonnet 5.5	$0.00004	$0.00026
Haiku 4.5	$0.00002	$0.00013

Security

Grade A, and why

init 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.

Origin

This is a copy

97% identical to storybook-init — 4 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.

What it actually says

Run npm create storybook@latest inside your project's root directory to install the latest version of Storybook. Use the matching package-manager command when appropriate, such as pnpm create storybook@latest or yarn create storybook.
After initialization succeeds, run npx storybook add @storybook/addon-mcp.
Invoke the $storybook:setup skill to help the user set up project-specific Storybook configuration, such as the .storybook/preview.ts file.

Changes

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.
