Provides the complete migration pattern for React legacy context API (contextTypes, childContextTypes, getChildContext) to the modern createContext API.

What this skill can do

Install

Paste this into your terminal. It downloads exactly the version we scanned, not whatever is newest.

if [ -e ~/.agents/skills/'react18-legacy-context' ] || [ -L ~/.agents/skills/'react18-legacy-context' ]; then echo 'A skill folder named react18-legacy-context already exists — not replacing it' >&2; false; else d=$(mktemp -d) && git clone --quiet --filter=blob:none --no-checkout 'https://github.com/github/awesome-copilot' "$d" && git -C "$d" checkout --quiet '227949a7542a55d2155c00e7cdb998d9a0fee4f3' -- 'skills/react18-legacy-context' && mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills && cp -R "$d"/'skills/react18-legacy-context' ~/.agents/skills/'react18-legacy-context' && rm -rf "$d"; fi

Codex reads ~/.agents/skills directly. For Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, Gemini CLI, Antigravity or OpenCode, also link it. For Claude Code: ln -s ~/.agents/skills/'react18-legacy-context' ~/.claude/skills/'react18-legacy-context' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
