Ink TUI Wizard Skill

Build beautiful, interactive terminal wizard interfaces using Ink (React for CLIs).

Ink is the dominant Node.js TUI framework — used by Claude Code (Anthropic), Gemini CLI (Google), GitHub Copilot CLI, Cloudflare Wrangler, Shopify CLI, Prisma, and many others.

When to use this skill

• Creating multi-step CLI installation or setup wizards
• Building reactive, session-driven terminal interfaces
• Adding real-time progress, spinners, or status displays to CLI tools
• Any Node.js/TypeScript CLI that needs more than sequential prompts

Core architecture

This skill follows a reactive session-driven pattern: the rendered screen is a pure function of session state. Business logic sets state through store setters. The router derives which screen should be active. Nobody imperatively pushes screens around.
