fix-deprecated-controls

A repair guide for outdated SAP UI5 controls, classes, interfaces, types, and properties. SAP UI5 is a JavaScript framework for building enterprise web applications.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to replace deprecated UI5 classes, interfaces, types, or properties with their supported alternatives.
Why use it?
It helps address UI5 linter warnings where an old API must be replaced or removed rather than changed automatically.

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

fix-deprecated-controls 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 2d 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.

Fix Deprecated Controls, Classes, Interfaces, and Types

This skill fixes deprecated control/class/interface/type issues that the UI5 linter detects but cannot auto-fix because they require understanding the specific replacement APIs.

Linter Rules Handled

Rule ID Message Pattern This Skill's Action
no-deprecated-api Use of deprecated class '...' Replace with new class
no-deprecated-api Use of deprecated interface '...' Replace with new interface
no-deprecated-api Use of deprecated type '...' Replace with new type
no-deprecated-api Use of deprecated property '...' Remove or replace property
no-deprecated-api Use of deprecated property '...' of class '...' Replace with new property/API

When to Use

Apply this skill when you see linter output like:

MyController.js:15:5 error Use of deprecated class 'sap.ui.commons.Button'  no-deprecated-api
MyController.js:20:5 error Use of deprecated property 'blocked' of class 'sap.m.Button'  no-deprecated-api
MyView.view.xml:10:5 error Use of deprecated class 'sap.m.DateTimeInput'  no-deprecated-api
Component.js:25:5 error Use of deprecated interface 'sap.ui.core.IFormContent'  no-deprecated-api

Getting Replacement Information

Run the linter with --details flag to get links to API documentation with replacement guidance:

npx @ui5/linter --details

Use the UI5 MCP Server's get_api_reference tool to check deprecation status and find replacements:

  • Query: sap.ui.commons.Button or sap.m.Button#blocked

Fix Strategy

1. Deprecated Class in new Expression

Problem: Using a deprecated control class.

// Before - triggers no-deprecated-api
sap.ui.define([
    "sap/ui/core/mvc/Controller",
    "sap/ui/commons/Button"  // Deprecated library!
], function(Controller, Button) {
    "use strict";

    return Controller.extend("my.app.controller.Main", {
        onInit: function() {
            var oButton = new Button({
                text: "Click me"
            });
        }
    });
});

What ships with it

1 file beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

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.
