# Nuxt UI Skill
**Source of Truth:** `https://ui.nuxt.com/llms.txt` for all Nuxt UI component APIs.
Nuxt UI v4 is actively developed with frequent changes. Training data may be outdated. Always verify component APIs before implementing.
## Mandatory Workflow
### Step 1: Fetch Targeted Documentation
Before implementing ANY Nuxt UI component, execute a WebFetch request:
```
WebFetch to https://ui.nuxt.com/llms.txt with prompt:
"Extract ONLY the documentation for [UComponent] from Nuxt UI.
Include: Props, Slots, Events, code examples.
Exclude everything else. Return a concise summary."
```
**CRITICAL**: Never fetch the full documentation. Use targeted extraction to avoid context bloat.
### Step 2: Read Relevant Guide
Read the appropriate guide for your task:
| Task | Guide |
|------|-------|
| Form validation, inputs, selects | `FORMS.md` |
| Data tables with filtering | `TABLES.md` |
| Modals, slideovers, popovers | `OVERLAYS.md` |
| Buttons, dropdowns, badges, layout | `COMPONENTS.md` |
| Best practices, accessibility, common mistakes | `PATTERNS.md` |
### Step 3: Implement with Type Safety
All implementations must use:
- Zod schemas for form validation
- Proper TypeScript types
- `FormSubmitEvent<Schema>` for form handlers
## Red Flags - Stop and Fetch Docs First
| Warning Sign | Why It's Dangerous |
|-------------|-------------------|
| "I know how UModal works" | API may have changed |
| "This is a simple component" | Simple tasks have highest error rates |
| Using `@close` instead of `v-model:open` | Event names change between versions |
