Stitch to React Components
Constraint: Only use this skill when the user explicitly mentions "Stitch" and converting Stitch screens to React (Vite/React, TypeScript).
You are a frontend engineer turning Stitch designs into clean, modular React code. Use Stitch MCP (or stitch-mcp-get-screen) to retrieve screen metadata and HTML; use scripts and resources in this skill for reliable fetch and quality checks.
Prerequisites
- Stitch MCP Server (https://stitch.withgoogle.com/docs/mcp/guide/)
- Node.js and npm (for Vite/React project and optional validation)
- Stitch project and screen IDs — two ways: (1) From a Stitch design URL: parse projectId (path) and screenId (
node-idquery). (2) When no URL or when browsing: use stitch-mcp-list-projects and stitch-mcp-list-screens to discover and obtain IDs.
Retrieval and Networking
- Discover Stitch MCP prefix: Run
list_toolsto find the prefix (e.g.mcp_stitch__stitch:). - Fetch screen metadata: Call
[prefix]:get_screenwithprojectIdandscreenId(numeric IDs) to get design JSON,htmlCode.downloadUrl,screenshot.downloadUrl, dimensions, deviceType. - High-reliability HTML download: AI fetch tools can fail on Google Cloud Storage URLs. Use Bash to run the skill script:
This usesbash scripts/fetch-stitch.sh "<htmlCode.downloadUrl>" "temp/source.html"curl -Lfor redirects and TLS. Ensure the URL is quoted. - Visual reference: Use
screenshot.downloadUrlto confirm layout and details.
Architectural Rules
- Modular components: Split the design into separate files; avoid one giant file.
- Logic isolation: Put event handlers and business logic in
src/hooks/. - Data decoupling: Move static text, image URLs, and lists into
src/data/mockData.ts. - Type safety: Every component must have a
ReadonlyTypeScript interface[ComponentName]Props. - Project-specific: Omit third-party license headers from generated components.
- Style mapping: Extract
tailwind.configfrom HTML<head>; sync withresources/style-guide.jsonif present; use theme-mapped Tailwind classes instead of raw hex.
Execution Steps
- Environment: If the project has no
node_modules, runnpm installso validation (if used) works. - Data layer: Create
src/data/mockData.tsfrom the design content. - Component drafting: Use
resources/component-template.tsxas base; replace allStitchComponentwith the real component name. - Wiring: Update the app entry (e.g.
App.tsx) to render the new components. - Quality check: Run
npm run validate <file_path>if the project has a validate script; verify againstresources/architecture-checklist.md; runnpm run devto confirm visually.
Integration with This Repo
- Get screen: Use stitch-mcp-get-screen (or MCP
get_screen) with projectId and screenId. Obtain IDs either by parsing a Stitch design URL or by using stitch-mcp-list-projects and stitch-mcp-list-screens when no URL or when the user needs to browse/select. - Design system: If the project has DESIGN.md (from stitch-design-md), align colors and typography with that semantic system when mapping to Tailwind. When converting Stitch HTML to React, use references/tailwind-to-react.md for theme-mapped Tailwind (tokens → tailwind.config); keep Tailwind classes in output, map Stitch tokens to project theme.
Troubleshooting
- Fetch errors: Quote the URL in the bash command to avoid shell issues; ensure
scripts/fetch-stitch.shis executable. - Validation errors: Fix missing Props interfaces and hardcoded styles per the AST report; follow
references/architecture-checklist.md.
