integration
Integrate projects with TabzChrome terminals via Markdown links, HTML attributes, WebSocket, JS API, or Spawn API
What this skill does
# TabzChrome Integration
Help users integrate their projects with TabzChrome terminals.
## When to Use
- Creating project dashboards with terminal buttons in markdown
- Adding "Run in Terminal" buttons to web pages
- Creating CLI tools that queue commands to TabzChrome
- Building prompt libraries with fillable templates
- Programmatically spawning terminal tabs
## Integration Methods
| Method | Auth | Best For |
|--------|------|----------|
| Markdown `tabz:` links | None | Project dashboards, docs in file viewer |
| HTML `data-terminal-command` | None | Static buttons on web pages |
| WebSocket + websocat | File token | CLI/tmux workflows |
| WebSocket + JS | API token | Prompt libraries, web apps |
| POST /api/spawn | Token | Creating new terminal tabs |
## Quick Start
First, ask which integration the user needs:
```
questions:
- question: "Which TabzChrome integration methods do you need?"
header: "Integration"
multiSelect: true
options:
- label: "Markdown Links"
description: "tabz: protocol for project dashboards in file viewer"
- label: "HTML Buttons"
description: "data-terminal-command for 'Run in Terminal' buttons"
- label: "CLI/Scripts"
description: "WebSocket via websocat for shell scripts"
- label: "Web App JS"
description: "JavaScript WebSocket for prompt libraries"
- label: "Spawn API"
description: "POST /api/spawn to create new tabs"
```
Then provide the relevant reference:
| Selection | Reference |
|-----------|-----------|
| Markdown Links | `references/markdown-links.md` |
| HTML Buttons | `references/html-integration.md` |
| CLI/Scripts | `references/cli-websocket.md` |
| Web App JS | `references/javascript-api.md` |
| Spawn API | `references/spawn-api.md` |
## Authentication Summary
| Context | Method |
|---------|--------|
| CLI / Scripts | `TOKEN=$(cat /tmp/tabz-auth-token)` |
| Extension Settings | Click "API Token" → "Copy Token" |
| External web pages | User pastes token (stored in localStorage) |
## Architecture Overview

IncludedLightning Web Components with PICKLES methodology and 165-point scoring. Use this skill when the user creates or edits LWC components, builds wire service patterns, or writes Jest tests for LWC. TRIGGER when: user creates/edits LWC components, touches lwc/**/*.js, .html, .css, .js-meta.xml files, or asks about wire service, SLDS, or Jest LWC tests. DO NOT TRIGGER when: Apex classes (use generating-apex), Aura components, or Visualforce.

IncludedManage server state in React with TanStack Query v5. Set up queries with useQuery, mutations with useMutation, configure QueryClient caching strategies, implement optimistic updates, and handle infinite scroll with useInfiniteQuery. Use when: setting up data fetching in React projects, migrating from v4 to v5, or fixing object syntax required errors, query callbacks removed issues, cacheTime renamed to gcTime, isPending vs isLoading confusion, keepPreviousData removed problems.

IncludedProcess documents with Nutrient DWS. Use when the user wants to generate PDFs from HTML or URLs, convert Office/images/PDFs, assemble or split packets, OCR scans, extract text/tables/key-value pairs, redact PII, watermark, sign, fill forms, optimize PDFs, or produce compliance outputs like PDF/A or PDF/UA. Triggers include convert to PDF, merge these PDFs, OCR this scan, extract tables, redact PII, sign this PDF, make this PDF/A, or linearize for web delivery.
