This skill is no longer available upstream. Our re-check on Aug 10, 2026 couldn't find it any more (repo unreachable/deleted). The test below is what we measured on Jul 29, 2026 and we're leaving it up as a record — but there is nothing left to install, so we've removed the command.

Copied the skill's quickstart into a real npm project and ran it: it dies on the first import, because `@tanstack/ai-anthropic/adapters` is not an exported subpath (ERR_PACKAGE_PATH_NOT_EXPORTED) and the `generate()` function the whole file is built around does not exist in @tanstack/ai 0.42.0 - the real entry point is `chat()`. The same holds for convertZodToJsonSchema (really convertSchemaToJsonSchema), parsePartialJson (parsePartialJSON), useCompletion in @tanstack/ai-react and createAIClient in @tanstack/ai-client: all absent from the installed packages. The no-skill baseline, which simply reads the package's own exports before writing anything, loaded and constructed the Anthropic adapter on the first attempt. Following this skill costs you a debugging session on an alpha SDK that has moved on from the API it documents.

Scored on four weighted criteria — install, triggering, output vs. baseline, docs. How scoring works

  • Installs cleanly 5/5
  • Triggers reliably 4/5
  • Output vs. baseline 2/10
  • Docs & honesty 1/5

What TanStack AI does

A single-file reference for the TanStack AI SDK covering text generation, provider adapters for OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini and Ollama, streaming strategies, structured output with Zod, tool calling, multimodal content and React or Solid hooks. Triggers when you build chat or completion UIs on @tanstack/ai. Tested against the packages currently on npm, its central examples do not run.

How to install TanStack AI

Nothing to install: the source repository no longer has this skill. If the author brings it back, our daily re-check will pick it up and the command will reappear here.

How do I install TanStack AI?
Copy the install command from this page, run it in your terminal, and restart Claude Code. Skills live in ~/.claude/skills/ (global) or .claude/skills/ inside a project.
Can I use TanStack AI with Cursor, Copilot, Gemini CLI, Codex or other AI tools?
The SKILL.md format is native to Claude (Claude Code, Desktop, claude.ai). The instructions inside adapt to other assistants: Cursor rules, GitHub Copilot instructions, Windsurf rules, Custom GPTs, AGENTS.md for OpenAI Codex, and GEMINI.md for Google Gemini CLI — our conversion guides cover each, and the free converter on the tools page does the wrapping for you.
