stream-react-native

Builds, integrates, migrates, and audits Stream Chat, Stream Video, and Stream Feeds in React Native CLI and Expo apps. Use when scaffolding a new RN/Expo Chat, Video, or Feeds app, adding Stream to an existing RN app, upgrading a Stream SDK version (stream-chat-react-native v8 to v9, Feeds v2 to v3), migrating from Sendbird (@sendbird/chat, @sendbird/uikit-react-native), answering RN/Expo SDK how-to questions, or customizing Stream RN UI. Triggers on React Native, Expo, Expo Router, stream-chat-react-native, stream-chat-expo, @stream-io/video-react-native-sdk, @stream-io/feeds-react-native-sdk, channel list, message list, MessageComposer, threads, attachment picker, audio messages, offline support, push notifications, video call, livestream, audio room, ringing, CallContent, ParticipantView, activity/timeline/notification feed, useCreateFeedsClient, StreamFeeds, comments, reactions, follows, and theming. React Native and Expo only - not web React (use stream-react), not Moderation review UI.

Content

Reviews the quality of instructions and guidance provided to agents. Good implementation is clear, handles edge cases, and produces reliable results.

The body is a well-structured router with excellent workflow sequencing, explicit validation/feedback gates, and clean one-level-deep progressive disclosure. It is mostly lean and actionable, with only minor verbosity in the front-loaded styling-traps block.

Suggestions

Trim the inline "Styling-depth traps" block (lines 215-224) to a short bullet list, since the full detail is already in references/design-matching.md — this would tighten conciseness without losing the front-load.

Consider one short executable example per product (e.g. a minimal provider-mount snippet) in the Track D section so the entrypoint is copy-paste ready for the common bootstrap case, not only for detection.

Dimension	Reasoning	Score
Conciseness	The body is dense and assumes Claude's competence (no concept-explaining padding), but the front-loaded "Styling-depth traps" block (lines 215-224) is long and duplicates detail already promised in design-matching.md, so a few tokens could be trimmed.	4 / 5
Actionability	Provides one fully executable bash probe (Project signals) and concrete command references (npm view, npx expo install, etc.), but the actual build/integrate code is delegated to referenced files — appropriate for a router, leaving minor gaps in the entrypoint itself.	4 / 5
Workflow Clarity	Clear Step 0 → 0.5 → Project signals → per-track phase tables (A1-A5, M1-M5, S0-S6) with explicit validation gates (M4 tsc→Metro→native→simulator; S5 gates in order) and feedback loops ("hard gate on failure → stream-docs → stop and ask").	5 / 5
Progressive Disclosure	Router overview points one level deep to verified references/*.md files (CHAT/VIDEO/FEEDS-REACT-NATIVE.md + blueprints, DOCS.md, SIMULATOR-VERIFICATION.md) and root module files via a module-map table and reference-layout section — well-signaled and easy to navigate.	5 / 5

Description

100%Weight 40%Scale 1-5

Based on the skill's description, can an agent find and select it at the right time? Clear, specific descriptions lead to better discovery.

The description is a strong, third-person statement that names concrete actions, gives an explicit "Use when" clause with concrete triggers, enumerates comprehensive natural keywords, and draws a clear boundary against sibling skills. Every dimension lands at the top anchor.

Dimension	Reasoning	Score
Specificity	Names four concrete actions ("Builds, integrates, migrates, and audits") across three named products (Chat, Video, Feeds) in two runtimes (RN CLI, Expo) — comprehensive coverage matching the score-5 anchor.	5 / 5
Completeness	Explicitly answers what ("Builds, integrates, migrates, and audits Stream Chat, Stream Video, and Stream Feeds...") and when ("Use when scaffolding... adding... upgrading... migrating from Sendbird... answering... or customizing...") with concrete trigger phrases.	5 / 5
Trigger Term Quality	The "Triggers on" clause lists package names, component/hook names, and natural feature phrases ("video call", "livestream", "channel list", "push notifications") plus synonyms ("activity/timeline/notification feed"), giving comprehensive natural-term coverage.	5 / 5
Distinctiveness Conflict Risk	Clear niche (Stream Chat/Video/Feeds in React Native/Expo only) with an explicit boundary ("not web React (use stream-react), not Moderation review UI"), minimizing conflict with sibling skills.	5 / 5
