1. Missing UApp Wrapper → Wrap app with <UApp>
2. CSS Import Order → @import "tailwindcss" FIRST, then @import "@nuxt/ui"
3. Missing tailwindcss package → bun add @nuxt/ui tailwindcss (both required)
4. Module Not Found → Add '@nuxt/ui' to modules in nuxt.config.ts
5. useChat not found → AI SDK v5 uses new Chat() class, not useChat() composable

Take secondsky/nuxt-ui-v4 from the repository into ~/.claude/skills for personal
use, or into .claude/skills inside a project.

same name cannot sit side by side — one of them will be ignored.
The instructions reference npm.
Without those the skill loads but fails at the first command.
