Teaches Claude how to change the behavior or appearance of the React Native UI Kit without modifying the kit itself. Four tiers, from cheapest to deepest:
Tier 1 — Props (95% of asks solved here)
Tier 2 — RequestBuilder (filter what data loads)
Tier 3 — Formatters + Templates (change how text / messages render)
Tier 4 — DataSource decorators + Events (last resort, powerful)
Always try Tier 1 first. Escalate only when the tier can't do what the user wants.
Read cometchat-native-components first — the catalog is the source of truth for prop names, slot views, and event listener names that this skill builds on.
Ground truth: docs/ui-kit/react-native/custom-text-formatter-guide.mdx, mentions-formatter-guide.mdx, shortcut-formatter-guide.mdx, url-formatter-guide.mdx, events.mdx, methods.mdx, property-changes.mdx, and the kit's source at packages/ChatUiKit/src/shared/formatters/ and packages/ChatUiKit/src/shared/events/.
When a user says "I want X" for a CometChat component:
| If they want to... | Use Tier | Cost |
|---|---|---|
| Hide a feature (thread option, receipts, edit, etc.) | Tier 1 — hide* / *Visibility props | 1 line of JSX |
| Customize a subsection (header title, subtitle, avatar, empty state) | Tier 1 — <Slot>View prop | 1 component |
| Filter what loads (only show online users, exclude blocked, include tags) | Tier 2 — *RequestBuilder | 1 builder |
| Change how URLs / mentions / hashtags / emojis render inline | Tier 3 — textFormatters | Subclass of CometChatTextFormatter |
| Render a custom message type (custom bubble, custom interactive msg) | Tier 3 — templates + CometChatMessageTemplate | 1 template + 1 renderer |
| React to events from another component ("they deleted a message, now reload my view") | Tier 4 — CometChatUIEventHandler | Listener |
| Rewrite how data flows through the kit (custom conversation sorting, override user-fetch logic) | Tier 4 — DataSourceDecorator | Class extension |
If a user's ask fits Tier 1 but you jumped to Tier 3, you've written 50 lines that a 1-line prop could have replaced. Start low.
cometchat-native-components is the full catalog. Three prop families cover most customization:
hide* / *Visibility flagsTurn features off with a single prop:
<CometChatMessageList
user={selectedUser}
hideReplyInThreadOption // already mandatory — see components § 11
hideReceipts
hideReactions={false}
hideTranslateMessageOption
hideMessagePrivatelyOption
hideReplyOption={false}
/>
Full list of hide* props per component: cometchat-native-components. Check there before writing custom code.
<Slot>View props — replace a sectionEvery component has PascalCase slot props for replacing named sections of its default UI:
<CometChatMessageHeader
user={selectedUser}
TitleView={(user, group) => <Text style={styles.customTitle}>{user?.getName()}</Text>}
SubtitleView={(user, group) => <OnlineStatus user={user} />}
LeadingView={(user, group) => <CustomAvatar user={user} />}
TrailingView={(user, group) => <CustomActions user={user} />}
AuxiliaryButtonView={(user, group) => <CometChatCallButtons user={user} group={group} />}
/>
Slot functions receive the same data the default view would have (typically user, group, or a single entity). They return RN JSX.
For custom views that should match the theme, use useTheme():
import { useTheme } from "@cometchat/chat-uikit-react-native";
function CustomTitle({ user }: any) {
const theme = useTheme();
return (
<Text style={{
color: theme.color.textPrimary,
fontFamily: theme.typography.heading3.fontFamily,
fontSize: theme.typography.heading3.fontSize,
}}>
{user?.getName()}
</Text>
);
}
See cometchat-native-theming § 8 for more on useTheme().
style={{ ... }} prop — nested stylingEach component accepts a nested-object style prop (see cometchat-native-components § 13):
<CometChatConversations
style={{
containerStyle: { backgroundColor: "#FAFAFA" },
itemStyle: {
avatarStyle: { containerStyle: { borderRadius: 8 } },
},
}}
/>
Prefer theme-level changes (via cometchat-native-theming) for app-wide color shifts; use style={{}} only for one-off overrides on a single component instance.
For "I want to show a subset of X", use the matching *RequestBuilder. Never post-filter in-render.
import { CometChat } from "@cometchat/chat-sdk-react-native";
// Only conversations in a specific tag group
<CometChatConversations
conversationsRequestBuilder={
new CometChat.ConversationsRequestBuilder()
.setLimit(20)
.setUserTags(["premium"])
.setConversationType(CometChat.RECEIVER_TYPE.USER)
}
/>
// Only online users, exclude blocked
<CometChatUsers
usersRequestBuilder={
new CometChat.UsersRequestBuilder()
.setLimit(30)
.setStatus("online")
.setSearchKeyword("")
.friendsOnly(false)
}
/>
// Only groups you've joined
<CometChatGroups
groupsRequestBuilder={
new CometChat.GroupsRequestBuilder()
.setLimit(30)
.joinedOnly(true)
}
/>
// Message list — exclude system messages
<CometChatMessageList
user={user}
messageRequestBuilder={
new CometChat.MessagesRequestBuilder()
.setUID(user.getUid())
.setLimit(30)
.setCategories(["message"]) // exclude "call", "action"
.hideReplies(false)
}
hideReplyInThreadOption
/>
Each request builder is chainable. The @cometchat/chat-sdk-react-native exports the builder classes — import them from the SDK, not the UI Kit.
Request builder methods are documented at cometchat.com/docs/sdk/react-native (or query the docs MCP). Common ones:
| Builder | Useful methods |
|---|---|
ConversationsRequestBuilder | .setLimit(n), .setUserTags([...]), .setGroupTags([...]), .setConversationType(type), .withTags(true), .withUserAndGroupTags(true) |
UsersRequestBuilder | .setLimit(n), .setStatus("online"), .setSearchKeyword(str), .friendsOnly(bool), .setTags([...]), .setUIDs([...]), .hideBlockedUsers(bool) |
GroupsRequestBuilder | .setLimit(n), .setSearchKeyword(str), .joinedOnly(bool), .setTags([...]), .setGroupTypes([...]) |
MessagesRequestBuilder | .setUID(uid) / .setGUID(guid), .setLimit(n), .setCategories([...]), .setTypes([...]), .hideReplies(bool), .setTags([...]), .setParentMessageId(id) |
GroupMembersRequestBuilder | .setLimit(n), .setSearchKeyword(str), .setScopes([...]) |
For "change how text or messages render", Tier 3 is the right level. Two sub-patterns:
CometChatTextFormatter is an abstract base class for matching inline text patterns (hashtags, keywords, emoji shortcodes, custom tags) and replacing them with custom JSX.
import {
CometChatTextFormatter,
SuggestionItem,
} from "@cometchat/chat-uikit-react-native";
import { CometChat } from "@cometchat/chat-sdk-react-native";
import { Text, View, StyleSheet } from "react-native";
class HashtagFormatter extends CometChatTextFormatter {
constructor() {
super();
this.setTrackingCharacter("#"); // optional — triggers suggestion list
this.setRegexPatterns([/\B#(\w+)\b/g]); // all matches get formatted
}
// Called for each bubble's text; return string | JSX
getFormattedText(
inputText: string | null | React.ReactNode,
): string | React.ReactNode {
if (typeof inputText !== "string") return inputText;
const parts = inputText.split(/(\B#\w+\b)/g);
return (
<Text>
{parts.map((part, i) =>
part.match(/^#\w+$/)
? <Text key={i} style={styles.hashtag} onPress={() => openHashtag(part)}>{part}</Text>
: <Text key={i}>{part}</Text>,
)}
</Text>
);
}
// Optional — called before a message is sent. Transform the outgoing message.
handlePreMessageSend(message: CometChat.TextMessage): CometChat.TextMessage {
// e.g. attach the list of hashtags to the message metadata
return message;
}
// Optional — for suggestion-list support (triggered by `#`)
search(searchKey: string): void {
// Fetch matching hashtags from your backend, then:
// this.setSearchData([{ id: "tag1", title: "#typescript" }]);
}
}
const styles = StyleSheet.create({
hashtag: { color: "#2563EB", fontWeight: "600" },
});
Register the formatter by passing it to both CometChatMessageList and CometChatMessageComposer:
const formatters = [
new CometChatMentionsFormatter(), // keep the built-in ones
new CometChatUrlsFormatter(),
new HashtagFormatter(), // add yours
];
<CometChatMessageList
user={selectedUser}
textFormatters={formatters}
hideReplyInThreadOption
/>
<CometChatMessageComposer
user={selectedUser}
textFormatters={formatters}
/>
For rendering a totally custom message type (interactive cards, scheduling, forms), use CometChatMessageTemplate.
import {
CometChatMessageTemplate,
CometChatUiKitConstants,
} from "@cometchat/chat-uikit-react-native";
const pollTemplate = new CometChatMessageTemplate({
type: "poll",
category: CometChatUiKitConstants.MessageCategoryConstants.custom,
ContentView: (message, alignment) => (
<PollBubble message={message} alignment={alignment} />
),
BottomView: (message, alignment) => (
<PollVoteCounts message={message} />
),
options: (loggedInUser, message, group) => [
/* CometChatMessageOption[] — custom long-press menu items */
],
});
<CometChatMessageList
user={selectedUser}
templates={[pollTemplate, ...defaultTemplates]} // merge with defaults
hideReplyInThreadOption
/>
Getting the default templates to merge with:
import { ChatConfigurator } from "@cometchat/chat-uikit-react-native";
const defaults = ChatConfigurator.getDataSource().getAllMessageTemplates();
<CometChatMessageList templates={[pollTemplate, ...defaults]} />
| Use formatter (Tier 3a) | Use template (Tier 3b) |
|---|---|
| Change how TEXT inside a bubble renders (hashtags, URLs, mentions, emoji shortcodes) | Render a completely different bubble body |
Content is still a TextMessage | Content is a custom message type (sent via CometChat.sendCustomMessage) |
| Doesn't need its own long-press options | Needs custom message options (vote, claim, accept, etc.) |
When Tiers 1-3 can't do it, you're modifying how data flows through the UI Kit. Two mechanisms:
CometChatUIEventHandlerSubscribe to events that UI Kit components emit so your own code can react.
import { CometChatUIEventHandler } from "@cometchat/chat-uikit-react-native";
import { useEffect } from "react";
function AppScreen() {
useEffect(() => {
const listenerId = "APP_MESSAGE_LISTENER";
CometChatUIEventHandler.addMessage

## Purpose
Teaches Claude how to change the behavior or appearance of the React Native UI Kit **without modifying the kit itself**. Four tiers, from cheapest to deepest:
```
Tier 1 — Props (95% of asks solved here)
Tier 2 — RequestBuilder (filter what data loads)
Tier 3 — Formatters + Templates (change how text / messages render)
Tier 4 — DataSource decorators + Events (last resort, powerful)
```
**Always try Tier 1 first.** Escalate only when the tier can't do what the user wants.
**Read `cometchat-native-components` first** — the catalog is the source of truth for prop names, slot views, and event listener names that this skill builds on.
Ground truth: `docs/ui-kit/react-native/custom-text-formatter-guide.mdx`, `mentions-formatter-guide.mdx`, `shortcut-formatter-guide.mdx`, `url-formatter-guide.mdx`, `events.mdx`, `methods.mdx`, `property-changes.mdx`, and the kit's source at `packages/ChatUiKit/src/shared/formatters/` and `packages/ChatUiKit/src/shared/events/`.
---
## Four-tier triage — pick the right tier before writing any code
When a user says "I want X" for a CometChat component:
| If they want to... | Use Tier | Cost |
|---|---|---|
| Hide a feature (thread option, receipts, edit, etc.) | Tier 1 — `hide*` / `*Visibility` props | 1 line of JSX |
| Customize a subsection (header title, subtitle, avatar, empty state) | Tier 1 — `<Slot>View` prop | 1 component |
| Filter what loads (only show online users, exclude blocked, include tags) | Tier 2 — `*RequestBuilder` | 1 builder |
| Change how URLs / mentions / hashtags / emojis render inline | Tier 3 — `textFormatters` | Subclass of `CometChatTextFormatter` |
| Render a custom message type (custom bubble, custom interactive msg) | Tier 3 — `templates` + `CometChatMessageTemplate` | 1 template + 1 renderer |
| React to events from another component ("they deleted a message, now reload my view") | Tier 4 — `CometChatUIEventHandler` | Listener |
| Rewrite how data flows through the kit (custom conversation sorting, override user-fetch logic) | Tier 4 — `DataSourceDecorator` | Class extension |
If a user's ask fits Tier 1 but you jumped to Tier 3, you've written 50 lines that a 1-line prop could have replaced. Start low.
---
## Tier 1 — Props (hide / slot views / styles)
`cometchat-native-components` is the full catalog. Three prop families cover most customization:
### 1a. `hide*` / `*Visibility` flags
Turn features off with a single prop:
```tsx
<CometChatMessageList
user={selectedUser}
hideReplyInThreadOption // already mandatory — see components § 11
hideReceipts
hideReactions={false}
hideTranslateMessageOption
hideMessagePrivatelyOption
hideReplyOption={false}
/>
```
Full list of `hide*` props per component: `cometchat-native-components`. Check there before writing custom code.
### 1b. `<Slot>View` props — replace a section
Every component has PascalCase slot props for replacing named sections of its default UI:
```tsx
<CometChatMessageHeader
user={selectedUser}
TitleView={(user, group) => <Text style={styles.customTitle}>{user?.getName()}</Text>}
SubtitleView={(user, group) => <OnlineStatus user={user} />}
LeadingView={(user, group) => <CustomAvatar user={user} />}
TrailingView={(user, group) => <CustomActions user={user} />}
AuxiliaryButtonView={(user, group) => <CometChatCallButtons user={user} group={group} />}
/>
```
Slot functions receive the same data the default view would have (typically `user`, `group`, or a single entity). They return RN JSX.
**For custom views that should match the theme**, use `useTheme()`:
```tsx
import { useTheme } from "@cometchat/chat-uikit-react-native";
function CustomTitle({ user }: any) {
const theme = useTheme();
return (
<Text style={{
color: theme.color.textPrimary,
fontFamily: theme.typography.heading3.fontFamily,
fontSize: theme.typography.heading3.fontSize,
}}>
{user?.getName()}
</Text>
);
}
```
See `cometchat-native-theming` § 8 for more on `useTheme()`.
### 1c. `style={{ ... }}` prop — nested styling
Each component accepts a nested-object `style` prop (see `cometchat-native-components` § 13):
```tsx
<CometChatConversations
style={{
containerStyle: { backgroundColor: "#FAFAFA" },
itemStyle: {
avatarStyle: { containerStyle: { borderRadius: 8 } },
},
}}
/>
```
Prefer theme-level changes (via `cometchat-native-theming`) for app-wide color shifts; use `style={{}}` only for one-off overrides on a single component instance.
---
## Tier 2 — RequestBuilder filtering
For "I want to show a subset of X", use the matching `*RequestBuilder`. Never post-filter in-render.
```tsx
import { CometChat } from "@cometchat/chat-sdk-react-native";
// Only conversations in a specific tag group
<CometChatConversations
conversationsRequestBuilder={
new CometChat.ConversationsRequestBuilder()
.setLimit(20)
.setUserTags(["premium"])
.setConversationType(CometChat.RECEIVER_TYPE.USER)
}
/>
// Only online users, exclude blocked
<CometChatUsers
usersRequestBuilder={
new CometChat.UsersRequestBuilder()
.setLimit(30)
.setStatus("online")
.setSearchKeyword("")
.friendsOnly(false)
}
/>
// Only groups you've joined
<CometChatGroups
groupsRequestBuilder={
new CometChat.GroupsRequestBuilder()
.setLimit(30)
.joinedOnly(true)
}
/>
// Message list — exclude system messages
<CometChatMessageList
user={user}
messageRequestBuilder={
new CometChat.MessagesRequestBuilder()
.setUID(user.getUid())
.setLimit(30)
.setCategories(["message"]) // exclude "call", "action"
.hideReplies(false)
}
hideReplyInThreadOption
/>
```
Each request builder is chainable. The `@cometchat/chat-sdk-react-native` exports the builder classes — import them from the SDK, not the UI Kit.
### Finding the right method
Request builder methods are documented at `cometchat.com/docs/sdk/react-native` (or query the docs MCP). Common ones:
| Builder | Useful methods |
|---|---|
| `ConversationsRequestBuilder` | `.setLimit(n)`, `.setUserTags([...])`, `.setGroupTags([...])`, `.setConversationType(type)`, `.withTags(true)`, `.withUserAndGroupTags(true)` |
| `UsersRequestBuilder` | `.setLimit(n)`, `.setStatus("online")`, `.setSearchKeyword(str)`, `.friendsOnly(bool)`, `.setTags([...])`, `.setUIDs([...])`, `.hideBlockedUsers(bool)` |
| `GroupsRequestBuilder` | `.setLimit(n)`, `.setSearchKeyword(str)`, `.joinedOnly(bool)`, `.setTags([...])`, `.setGroupTypes([...])` |
| `MessagesRequestBuilder` | `.setUID(uid)` / `.setGUID(guid)`, `.setLimit(n)`, `.setCategories([...])`, `.setTypes([...])`, `.hideReplies(bool)`, `.setTags([...])`, `.setParentMessageId(id)` |
| `GroupMembersRequestBuilder` | `.setLimit(n)`, `.setSearchKeyword(str)`, `.setScopes([...])` |
---
## Tier 3 — Text formatters + message templates
For "change how text or messages render", Tier 3 is the right level. Two sub-patterns:
### 3a. Custom text formatter — inline text patterns
`CometChatTextFormatter` is an abstract base class for matching inline text patterns (hashtags, keywords, emoji shortcodes, custom tags) and replacing them with custom JSX.
```tsx
import {
CometChatTextFormatter,
SuggestionItem,
} from "@cometchat/chat-uikit-react-native";
import { CometChat } from "@cometchat/chat-sdk-react-native";
import { Text, View, StyleSheet } from "react-native";
class HashtagFormatter extends CometChatTextFormatter {
constructor() {
super();
this.setTrackingCharacter("#"); // optional — triggers suggestion list
this.setRegexPatterns([/\B#(\w+)\b/g]); // all matches get formatted
}
// Called for each bubble's text; return string | JSX
getFormattedText(
inputText: string | null | React.ReactNode,
): string | React.ReactNode {
if (typeof inputText !== "string") return inputText;
const parts = inputText.split(/(\B#\w+\b)/g);
return (
<Text>
{parts.map((part, i) =>
part.match(/^#\w+$/)
? <Text key={i} style={styles.hashtag} onPress={() => openHashtag(part)}>{part}</Text>
: <Text key={i}>{part}</Text>,
)}
</Text>
);
}
// Optional — called before a message is sent. Transform the outgoing message.
handlePreMessageSend(message: CometChat.TextMessage): CometChat.TextMessage {
// e.g. attach the list of hashtags to the message metadata
return message;
}
// Optional — for suggestion-list support (triggered by `#`)
search(searchKey: string): void {
// Fetch matching hashtags from your backend, then:
// this.setSearchData([{ id: "tag1", title: "#typescript" }]);
}
}
const styles = StyleSheet.create({
hashtag: { color: "#2563EB", fontWeight: "600" },
});
```
Register the formatter by passing it to both `CometChatMessageList` and `CometChatMessageComposer`:
```tsx
const formatters = [
new CometChatMentionsFormatter(), // keep the built-in ones
new CometChatUrlsFormatter(),
new HashtagFormatter(), // add yours
];
<CometChatMessageList
user={selectedUser}
textFormatters={formatters}
hideReplyInThreadOption
/>
<CometChatMessageComposer
user={selectedUser}
textFormatters={formatters}
/>
```
### 3b. Custom message template — entire custom bubble
For rendering a totally custom message type (interactive cards, scheduling, forms), use `CometChatMessageTemplate`.
```tsx
import {
CometChatMessageTemplate,
CometChatUiKitConstants,
} from "@cometchat/chat-uikit-react-native";
const pollTemplate = new CometChatMessageTemplate({
type: "poll",
category: CometChatUiKitConstants.MessageCategoryConstants.custom,
ContentView: (message, alignment) => (
<PollBubble message={message} alignment={alignment} />
),
BottomView: (message, alignment) => (
<PollVoteCounts message={message} />
),
options: (loggedInUser, message, group) => [
/* CometChatMessageOption[] — custom long-press menu items */
],
});
<CometChatMessageList
user={selectedUser}
templates={[pollTemplate, ...defaultTemplates]} // merge with defaults
hideReplyInThreadOption
/>
```
Getting the default templates to merge with:
```tsx
import { ChatConfigurator } from "@cometchat/chat-uikit-react-native";
const defaults = ChatConfigurator.getDataSource().getAllMessageTemplates();
<CometChatMessageList templates={[pollTemplate, ...defaults]} />
```
### When to use text formatter vs message template
| Use formatter (Tier 3a) | Use template (Tier 3b) |
|---|---|
| Change how TEXT inside a bubble renders (hashtags, URLs, mentions, emoji shortcodes) | Render a completely different bubble body |
| Content is still a `TextMessage` | Content is a custom message type (sent via `CometChat.sendCustomMessage`) |
| Doesn't need its own long-press options | Needs custom message options (vote, claim, accept, etc.) |
---
## Tier 4 — DataSource decorators + event bus
When Tiers 1-3 can't do it, you're modifying how data flows through the UI Kit. Two mechanisms:
### 4a. Event bus — `CometChatUIEventHandler`
Subscribe to events that UI Kit components emit so your own code can react.
```tsx
import { CometChatUIEventHandler } from "@cometchat/chat-uikit-react-native";
import { useEffect } from "react";
function AppScreen() {
useEffect(() => {
const listenerId = "APP_MESSAGE_LISTENER";

"value": "Add \"cometchat-native-customization\" as a Claude Code skill from https://github.com/cometchat/cometchat-skills/tree/main/packages/skills-native/skills/cometchat-native-customization. Inspect the skill instructions, place the reusable skill files in the appropriate local skills location for this project, and report the activation steps. Skill purpose: Customize the CometChat React Native UI Kit without forking — four-tier model: props → request builders → text formatters + message templates → DataSource decorators + event bus. After the install attempt, report the result to https://www.openagentskill.com/api/agent/outcome with POST JSON {\"event_id\":\"install_<unique-id>\",\"skill_slug\":\"cometchat-cometchat-native-customization\",\"task\":\"Install cometchat-native-customization\",\"agent\":\"claude-code\",\"outcome\":\"success\",\"install_used\":true}. Replace event_id with a unique value and outcome with success or failed. Report success only after the skill is installed and a minimal verification passes. Recorded instruction path: packages/skills-native/skills/cometchat-native-customization/SKILL.md. Recorded revision: 7686557127c6d3b3bf85b672e3c2ecc708157b57.
