Our review
This skill identifies source code components corresponding to UI screenshots or visual descriptions.
Strengths
- Precise matching through multiple visual signals (text, BEM, Material, layout, color, data shape).
- Automatic component indexing with incremental updates.
- Integration upstream of /scout to narrow search scope.
- Component dependency graph for architecture understanding.
Limitations
- Requires the component index to be up-to-date.
- Depends on screenshot quality (resolution, hidden elements).
- Only works for projects already configured with the expected folder structure.
Use this skill when a developer needs to quickly locate the source code of a UI element visible in a screenshot.
Do not use it for code modifications without a visual reference, or when the screenshot does not clearly show specific components.
Security analysis
SafeThe skill runs local Node.js scripts and uses Bash to generate a component index, then reads JSON and source files. It does not perform network operations, data exfiltration, or destructive actions. All tools are used within the user's own codebase for legitimate UI component discovery.

Examples
I have a screenshot of a login button with a Material Design style. Find the component responsible for it.Find the page component that renders the dashboard layout shown in this screenshot.Update the component index after recent edits to shared components.name: find-component description: >- [Frontend] Find source code components from UI screenshots or visual descriptions. Runs BEFORE /scout when screenshot is pasted with UI intent. Triggers on: find component, find this component, where is this code, where is this page, which component, locate component, find the source, what component is this, refresh component index, update component index, sync component index. Maps visual signals to source files with confidence scoring and Mermaid component graph. allowed-tools: Read, Grep, Glob, Bash, Task
Anti-Hallucination Requirement
Read: .claude/skills/shared/anti-hallucination-protocol.md
Read: references/confidence-scoring-guide.md
Every claimed match MUST have grep-verified evidence. HALT if confidence <85% — show candidates, never fabricate.
Workflow
Step 1: Load Component Index
# Full scan (rebuild entire index):
node .claude/skills/find-component/scripts/generate-component-index.cjs
# Incremental (only re-scan git-changed component files):
node .claude/skills/find-component/scripts/generate-component-index.cjs --git-changes
# Then read:
Read: docs/component-index.json
When to use which mode:
--git-changes— fast update after editing components (merges into existing index)- No flag — full rebuild when index missing, stale, or after major refactors
- Fallback: live grep if index unavailable
Step 2: Extract Visual Signals from Screenshot
Read: references/visual-signal-extraction.md
Read the screenshot. Extract 6 signal types (text, BEM, Material, layout, color, data shape). List each signal with what you ACTUALLY see — never infer.
Step 3: Bottom-Up Component Search
Read: references/component-matching-protocol.md
- Reusable components first — match signals against
platform-core/andlibs/components - Domain components — match against
shared/components/ - Page component — find parent that composes matched children
- If no reusable match → search page templates directly
Step 4: Score Confidence
Read: references/confidence-scoring-guide.md
- ≥85% (≥2 grep-verified signals) → report as confirmed match
- <85% → show top candidates with per-signal breakdown, ask user
Step 5: Build Component Relationship Graph
Output Mermaid diagram:
graph TD
A[PageComponent] --> B[ChildComponent1]
A --> C[ChildComponent2]
B --> D[SharedComponent]
Verify each edge by reading actual template HTML. Never infer from imports alone.
Step 6: Report
Output: matched components, file paths (TS/HTML/SCSS), confidence %, Mermaid graph, and any unresolved ambiguities.
Integration — Pre-Scout Activation (IMPORTANT)
When a screenshot is pasted with UI-related intent (fix, update, find, debug), this skill
runs BEFORE /scout in any workflow. It narrows the search scope so scout is targeted.
Auto-activation priority: /find-component → /scout → remaining workflow steps
Applies to: bugfix, feature, refactor, fix-ui, verification workflows.
Output (matched file paths + component graph) feeds directly into scout/investigate steps.
