Preserve React 18 concurrent patterns and adopt React 19 APIs (useTransition, useDeferredValue, Suspense, use(), useOptimistic, Actions) during migration.

React 19 introduced new APIs that complement the migration work. This skill covers two concerns:
These patterns exist in React 18 codebases and must not be accidentally removed or broken:
If the R18 orchestra already ran, ReactDOM.render → createRoot is done. Verify it's correct:
// CORRECT React 19 root (same as React 18):
import { createRoot } from 'react-dom/client';
const root = createRoot(document.getElementById('root'));
root.render(
<React.StrictMode>
<App />
</React.StrictMode>
);
useTransition from React 18 works identically in React 19. Do not touch these patterns during migration:
// React 18 useTransition unchanged in React 19:
const [isPending, startTransition] = useTransition();
function handleClick() {
startTransition(() => {
setFilteredResults(computeExpensiveFilter(input));
});
}
// React 18 useDeferredValue unchanged in React 19:
const deferredQuery = useDeferredValue(query);
// React 18 Suspense with lazy unchanged in React 19:
const LazyComponent = React.lazy(() => import('./LazyComponent'));
function App() {
return (
<Suspense fallback={<Spinner />}>
<LazyComponent />
</Suspense>
);
}
These are worth adopting in a post-migration cleanup sprint. Do not introduce these DURING the migration stabilize first.
For full patterns on each new API, read:
references/react19-use.md the use() hook for promises and contextreferences/react19-actions.md Actions, useActionState, useFormStatus, useOptimisticreferences/react19-suspense.md Suspense for data fetching (the new pattern)During the React 19 migration itself, these concurrent-mode patterns must be left completely untouched:
# Verify nothing touched these during migration:
grep -rn "useTransition\|useDeferredValue\|Suspense\|startTransition" \
src/ --include="*.js" --include="*.jsx" | grep -v "\.test\."
If the migrator touched any of these files, review the changes the migration should only have modified React API surface (forwardRef, defaultProps, etc.), never concurrent mode logic.

End-to-end skill for building, testing, linting, versioning, and publishing a production-grade Python library to PyPI. Covers all four build backends (setuptools+setuptools_scm, hatchling, flit, poetry), PEP 440 versioning, semantic versioning, dynamic git-tag versioning, OOP/SOLID design, type hints (PEP 484/526/544/561), Trusted Publishing (OIDC), and the full PyPA packaging flow. Use for: creating Python packages, pip-installable SDKs, CLI tools, framework plugins, pyproject.toml setup, py.typed, setuptools_scm, semver, mypy, pre-commit, GitHub Actions CI/CD, or PyPI publishing.
tools
Audit MCP (Model Context Protocol) server configurations for security issues. Use this skill when: - Reviewing .mcp.json files for security risks - Checking MCP server args for hardcoded secrets or shell injection patterns - Validating that MCP servers use pinned versions (not @latest) - Detecting unpinned dependencies in MCP server configurations - Auditing which MCP servers a project registers and whether they're on an approved list - Checking for environment variable usage vs. hardcoded credentials in MCP configs - Any request like "is my MCP config secure?", "audit my MCP servers", or "check .mcp.json" keywords: [mcp, security, audit, secrets, shell-injection, supply-chain, governance]

Enable code intelligence (go-to-definition, find-references, hover, type info) for any programming language by installing and configuring an LSP server for Copilot CLI. Detects the OS, installs the right server, and generates the JSON configuration (user-level or repo-level). Use when you need deeper code understanding and no LSP server is configured, or when the user asks to set up, install, or configure an LSP server.

Use this skill whenever the user wants to build scroll animations, scroll effects, parallax, scroll-triggered reveals, pinned sections, horizontal scroll, text animations, or any motion tied to scroll position — in vanilla JS, React, or Next.js. Covers GSAP ScrollTrigger (pinning, scrubbing, snapping, timelines, horizontal scroll, ScrollSmoother, matchMedia) and Framer Motion / Motion v12 (useScroll, useTransform, useSpring, whileInView, variants). Use this skill even if the user just says "animate on scroll", "fade in as I scroll", "make it scroll like Apple", "parallax effect", "sticky section", "scroll progress bar", or "entrance animation". Also triggers for Copilot prompt patterns for GSAP or Framer Motion code generation. Pairs with the premium-frontend-ui skill for creative philosophy and design-level polish.
