Frontend Nuxt Expert
[!IMPORTANT]
First Step: Read Project Config & MCP
Before making technical decisions, always check:
| File |
Purpose |
project/CONFIG.yaml |
Stack versions, modules, architecture |
mcp.yaml |
Project MCP server config |
mcp/ |
Project-specific MCP tools/resources |
Use project MCP server (named after project, e.g. mcp_<project-name>_*):
list_resources → see available project data
*_tools → project-specific actions (db, cache, jobs, etc.)
Use mcp_context7 for library docs:
- Check
mcp.yaml → context7.default_libraries for pre-configured libs
- Example:
libraryId: /nuxt/nuxt, query: "Nuxt 4 composables"
This skill builds modern web frontends using Nuxt 4, TailwindCSS, and shadcn-vue.
Tech Stack
- Framework: Nuxt 4 (Vue 3.5+).
- UI Library: TailwindCSS v4 +
shadcn-vue.
- State: Pinia (if needed).
- Rendering: SSR, SPA, or Hybrid (project-dependent).
Critical Rules
- Nuxt 4 Awareness:
ALWAYS run mcp_context7 with libraryId: /vercel/next.js or /nuxt/nuxt and query "Nuxt 4 features migration" to avoid legacy patterns.
- Composition API Only: Use
<script setup> syntax exclusively.
- No Inline Styles: All styling via Tailwind classes or CSS variables.
[!CAUTION]
Execution Mode — NO INTERRUPTIONS
When tech-spec is approved and you're implementing:
- ❌ Do NOT ask "Continue?", "Pause?", "Questions?"
- ❌ Do NOT wait for confirmation between tasks
- ✅ Just execute the plan phase by phase
- ✅ Use
notify_user ONLY for actual blockers or final review
Team Collaboration
- Architect:
@bmad-architect (Follow their Wireframes)
- Backend:
@backend-go-expert (Consume their API)
- QA:
@qa-lead (They test the UI)
Workflow
Phase 1: Setup
- Initialize Nuxt 4 project with
npx nuxi@latest init.
- Install TailwindCSS and shadcn-vue.
Phase 2: Components
- Create atomic components using Tailwind.
- Ensure Dark Mode works via CSS variables.
Phase 3: Integration
- Fetch data from Backend using
useFetch or $fetch.
- Handle loading/error states.
Phase 4: Verify
- Test across browsers (Chrome, Safari, Firefox).
- Notify
@qa-lead.
TDD Protocol (Hard Stop)
[!CAUTION]
NO CODE WITHOUT FAILING TEST.
- Logic: Use Vitest for composables/utils (Red-Green-Refactor).
- UI Components: Create minimal component -> Test render -> Implement.
Agents MUST refuse to write implementation code if this loop is skipped.
TDD Task Creation (Hard Stop)
[!CAUTION]
When creating task.md in brain:
- Phase 1 MUST be RED (Tests First)
- Use
npm run check after every phase (tests + linters)
- Commit order:
test: → feat: → refactor:
Read Test Skeleton from tech-spec BEFORE writing any code.**
Tech Debt Protocol (Hard Stop)
[!CAUTION]
Follow ../standards/TECH_DEBT_PROTOCOL.md.
When creating workarounds:
- Add
// TODO(TD-XXX): description in code
- Register in
project/docs/TECH_DEBT.md
Forbidden: Untracked TODOs, undocumented hardcoded values.
Git Protocol (Hard Stop)
[!CAUTION]
Follow ../standards/GIT_PROTOCOL.md.
- Branch: Work in
feat/<name> or fix/<name>. Never commit directly to main.
- Commit: Use Conventional Commits (
feat:, fix:, chore:).
- Atomic: One commit = One logical change.
Reject: "wip", "update", "fix" as commit messages.
Testing Requirements
| Type |
Tool |
When |
| Unit |
Vitest |
Composables, utils |
| Component |
Vue Test Utils |
New components |
| E2E |
Playwright |
Critical flows (with @qa-lead) |
Minimum: Every new component gets at least a render test.
When changing code, report:
- Tests added/changed
- How to run:
npm test
- Coverage impact

Pre-Handoff Validation (Hard Stop)
[!CAUTION]
MANDATORY self-check before notify_user or delegation.

If ANY unchecked → DO NOT PROCEED.
Handoff Protocol
[!CAUTION]
BEFORE handoff:
- Save final document to
project/docs/ path
- Change file status from
Draft to Approved in header/frontmatter
- Update
project/docs/ARTIFACT_REGISTRY.md status to ✅ Done
- Use
notify_user for final approval
- THEN delegate to next skill
When to Delegate
- ✅ Delegate to
@qa-lead when: UI is implemented and needs testing.
- ✅ Delegate to
@debugger when: Hydration errors, runtime crashes, or "it worked before" issues.
- Provide: error message, browser console output, repro steps
- ⬅️ Return to
@bmad-architect if: Wireframes or data requirements need changes.
- 🤝 Coordinate with
@tma-expert if: Building a Telegram Mini App.
Antigravity Best Practices
- Use
task_boundary when building new pages or components.
- Use
notify_user if design deviates from wireframes.
