Description
opentui is an agent skill from the anomalyco OpenTUI project that helps a coding agent build terminal user interfaces with OpenTUI. It covers the library's core, its frameworks, components, application APIs, testing, extensions, integrations, deployment and public API lookup. The skill points the agent to the canonical reference docs in the OpenTUI repository. Its layout defaults are written for a terminal rather than a browser: the agent should use the available columns and rows efficiently, avoid gaps between adjacent panels, skip unnecessary margins and padding, and prefer compact, information-dense layouts over website-style card spacing. Those rules help the output look right in a terminal, where space is limited. The skill is listed on skills.sh, where the page shows install counts, the repository's GitHub stars and security audit results, which all pass. To install it, run npx skills add https://github.com/anomalyco/opentui --skill opentui. It is intended for developers building a terminal application with OpenTUI who want an agent to follow the library's docs and layout conventions.…
