What Vercel React Best Practices is
Vercel React Best Practices is a skill published in the vercel-labs/agent-skills repository on GitHub, which has about 31.6k stars. The repository describes itself as: “Vercel's official collection of agent skills”
A skill is a folder with a SKILL.md file: frontmatter with a name and a description, followed by instructions Claude follows. Claude loads a skill automatically when a task matches its description, and you can also run it directly with a slash and its name.
Skills work in Claude Code and in Claude Cowork, which makes Vercel React Best Practices a portable way to give Claude the same method everywhere.

Before you install
- Read the whole file first. Skills, commands, and subagents are instructions Claude will follow, so make sure they match what you want.
- Check which tools, scripts, or MCP servers it uses. Local servers and scripts run with your permissions.
- Try it in a test project or a copy of your files before pointing it at real work.
- Pin the version you tested, and review changes before updating.
- Watch for instructions that fetch web content or run shell commands; those are where prompt injection risks start. See our prompt injection guide.
