Purpose

Teaches Claude how to integrate CometChat into an Expo managed workflow project. Covers:

Installing the full peer-dependency set (not just the UI Kit)
Configuring app.json permissions for iOS + Android
Wiring the provider chain in App.tsx with all four wrappers
Optional calling SDK setup
Env vars via expo-constants or .env
Expo Router subsection (file-based routing)
Prebuild + run cadence

Read cometchat-native-core first (init/login/wrapper chain + anti-patterns), then cometchat-native-components (prop reference), then cometchat-native-placement (where chat goes).

Ground truth: docs/ui-kit/react-native/expo-integration.mdx, expo-conversation.mdx, expo-one-to-one-chat.mdx, expo-tab-based-chat.mdx, and examples/SampleAppExpo/.

Use this skill when

Project has expo in package.json dependencies
app.json / app.config.js exists at the root
package.json main field references expo (e.g. "main": "index.js" with an Expo-style entry)
The user says "Expo", "Expo Router", "managed workflow", or "EAS"

Do NOT use this skill when:

The project has an ios/ + android/ folder at the root (that's bare RN → use cometchat-native-bare-patterns)
The user says "bare React Native", "React Native CLI", or "ejected"

Hard prerequisite — Expo Go is NOT supported

The CometChat UI Kit depends on native modules that can't be shimmed. This means:

Expo Go won't load your app — you'll see "Main module field cannot be resolved" or similar
You must build a development client (eas build --profile development or expo run:ios / expo run:android)
Or install in a plain Expo simulator via prebuild

The first build can take 5-15 minutes. Subsequent runs are fast via the dev client.

Before integrating, confirm the user has either:

eas-cli installed and an EAS account, OR
Xcode + Android Studio for local prebuilds

If neither, stop and ask them to set one up. Don't waste their time installing packages that won't run.

Step 1 — Install dependencies

The UI Kit has a long peer-dep tail. Install them all in one shot so Expo's resolver doesn't miss a native module during prebuild:

# Core SDK + UI Kit
npm install @cometchat/chat-sdk-react-native
npm install @cometchat/chat-uikit-react-native

# Required peer deps (all natively-linked)
npx expo install \
  @react-native-async-storage/async-storage \
  @react-native-clipboard/clipboard \
  @react-native-community/datetimepicker \
  react-native-gesture-handler \
  react-native-localize \
  react-native-safe-area-context \
  react-native-svg \
  react-native-video

# dayjs + punycode — no native code but required by the kit
npm install dayjs punycode

Why npx expo install for the natively-linked deps? expo install picks versions compatible with the project's Expo SDK. Using npm install directly can land incompatible versions that break prebuild.

Optional — calling SDK

If the user's flow includes voice / video calls (the cometchat-native-features skill's § Calls gates this):

npm install @cometchat/calls-sdk-react-native
npx expo install \
  @react-native-community/netinfo \
  react-native-background-timer \
  react-native-callstats \
  react-native-webrtc

Skip these until the user actually wants calls. Adding WebRTC to an Expo project bloats the prebuild and requires extra permissions — don't speculatively enable it.

Step 2 — Configure app.json

Add iOS + Android permissions so the kit's attachments, camera, mic, and media features work. Merge into existing expo.ios.infoPlist / expo.android.permissions — do not replace anything the user already has.

{
  "expo": {
    "ios": {
      "infoPlist": {
        "NSCameraUsageDescription": "Allow camera access to send photos and make video calls",
        "NSMicrophoneUsageDescription": "Allow microphone access to send voice messages and make calls",
        "NSPhotoLibraryUsageDescription": "Allow photo library access to send photos",
        "NSPhotoLibraryAddUsageDescription": "Allow saving photos from chat to your library"
      }
    },
    "android": {
      "permissions": [
        "android.permission.INTERNET",
        "android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE",
        "android.permission.CAMERA",
        "android.permission.RECORD_AUDIO",
        "android.permission.MODIFY_AUDIO_SETTINGS",
        "android.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE",
        "android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE",
        "android.permission.VIBRATE",
        "android.permission.READ_MEDIA_IMAGES",
        "android.permission.READ_MEDIA_VIDEO",
        "android.permission.READ_MEDIA_AUDIO"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Permission-string best practice: the iOS Usage strings show in the system prompt when iOS asks the user for permission — write them as user-facing copy, not developer notes. "Camera access for video calls" is fine; "for media upload" isn't a real reason a user would accept.

If the project uses `app.config.js` or `app.config.ts`

Merge the same fields into the exported config. Don't switch the project from JS to JSON unless the user asks — respect their setup.

Step 3 — Wire the provider chain in App.tsx

Expo projects use the same four-wrapper chain as bare RN (see cometchat-native-core § 3). The difference is the entry file — Expo uses App.tsx (or index.ts + registerRootComponent) rather than bare's index.js + AppRegistry.

// App.tsx
import "react-native-gesture-handler";   // MUST be the first import
import React from "react";
import { GestureHandlerRootView } from "react-native-gesture-handler";
import { SafeAreaProvider } from "react-native-safe-area-context";
import { CometChatThemeProvider } from "@cometchat/chat-uikit-react-native";
import { CometChatProvider } from "./src/providers/CometChatProvider";
import { AppNavigator } from "./src/navigation/AppNavigator";
import Constants from "expo-constants";

const extra = Constants.expoConfig?.extra ?? {};

export default function App() {
  return (
    <GestureHandlerRootView style={{ flex: 1 }}>
      <SafeAreaProvider>
        <CometChatThemeProvider>
          <CometChatProvider
            appId={extra.COMETCHAT_APP_ID}
            region={extra.COMETCHAT_REGION}
            authKey={extra.COMETCHAT_AUTH_KEY}
            uid="cometchat-uid-1"   // dev mode only
          >
            <AppNavigator />
          </CometChatProvider>
        </CometChatThemeProvider>
      </SafeAreaProvider>
    </GestureHandlerRootView>
  );
}

The CometChatProvider itself is defined per cometchat-native-core § 6 — reuse that implementation; don't invent another one.

`import "react-native-gesture-handler"` must be first

Even before React. Expo's entry-file hot reload otherwise loses the gesture handler patch and the composer / bottom-sheet gestures silently disable.

// At the top of App.tsx:
import "react-native-gesture-handler";
// THEN everything else
import React from "react";

Step 4 — Env vars

Two options; pick one based on what the project already uses.

Option A — `app.json extra` + `expo-constants` (simple, recommended)

{
  "expo": {
    "extra": {
      "COMETCHAT_APP_ID": "YOUR_APP_ID",
      "COMETCHAT_REGION": "us",
      "COMETCHAT_AUTH_KEY": "YOUR_AUTH_KEY"
    }
  }
}

Read via expo-constants:

import Constants from "expo-constants";
const { COMETCHAT_APP_ID, COMETCHAT_REGION, COMETCHAT_AUTH_KEY } = Constants.expoConfig?.extra ?? {};

Warning: these values end up in the client bundle. Never put REST_API_KEY or any server-side secret in expo.extra — use a backend (see cometchat-native-production).

Option B — `.env` + `expo-dotenv` / SDK-native `.env` support

Expo SDK 50+ supports .env out of the box via EXPO_PUBLIC_* prefix:

# .env
EXPO_PUBLIC_COMETCHAT_APP_ID=your_app_id
EXPO_PUBLIC_COMETCHAT_REGION=us
EXPO_PUBLIC_COMETCHAT_AUTH_KEY=your_auth_key

Read directly via process.env.EXPO_PUBLIC_COMETCHAT_APP_ID anywhere in your app. Any variable WITHOUT the EXPO_PUBLIC_ prefix is ONLY available in app.config.js / server scripts, not bundled — useful for REST API keys in backend-only code.

Which to choose

If the project already has .env — Option B.
If the project hasn't set up env vars at all — Option A (one file, no prefix rules).
Never mix both for the same variable — pick one place.

Step 5 — Expo Router subsection

Expo Router is a file-based alternative to @react-navigation/*. If the project has app/ instead of (or alongside) src/screens/, they're using Expo Router.

Detect Expo Router by checking package.json for expo-router in dependencies, and app.json for the "expo-router" plugin.

5a — Router entry (`app/_layout.tsx`)

In Expo Router, the app/_layout.tsx file is the root layout — wrap the provider chain here instead of in App.tsx.

// app/_layout.tsx
import "react-native-gesture-handler";
import { GestureHandlerRootView } from "react-native-gesture-handler";
import { SafeAreaProvider } from "react-native-safe-area-context";
import { CometChatThemeProvider } from "@cometchat/chat-uikit-react-native";
import { CometChatProvider } from "../src/providers/CometChatProvider";
import { Slot } from "expo-router";
import Constants from "expo-constants";

const extra = Constants.expoConfig?.extra ?? {};

export default function RootLayout() {
  return (
    <GestureHandlerRootView style={{ flex: 1 }}>
      <SafeAreaProvider>
        <CometChatThemeProvider>
          <CometChatProvider
            appId={extra.COMETCHAT_APP_ID}
            region={extra.COMETCHAT_REGION}
            authKey={extra.COMETCHAT_AUTH_KEY}
            uid="cometchat-uid-1"
          >
            <Slot />   {/* Expo Router renders child routes here */}
          </CometChatProvider>
        </CometChatThemeProvider>
      </SafeAreaProvider>
    </GestureHandlerRootView>
  );
}

5b — Conversations + message route

app/
  _layout.tsx          ← provider chain (above)
  index.tsx            ← home (could be the conversations list)
  messages/
    [uid].tsx          ← dynamic route, one chat per uid

// app/index.tsx
import { CometChatConversations, CometChatUiKitConstants } from "@cometchat/chat-uikit-react-native";
import { router } from "expo-router";

export default function Home() {
  return (
    <CometChatConversations
      onItemPress={(conversation) => {
        const entity = conversation.getConversationWith();
        const type = conversation.getConversationType();
        if (type === CometChatUiKitConstants.ConversationTypeConstants.user) {
          router.push(`/messages/${(entity as any).getUid()}`);
        } else {
          router.push(`/messages/group-${(entity as any).getGuid()}`);
        }
      }}
    />
  );
}

// app/messages/[uid].tsx
import { useLocalSearchParams, router } from "expo-router";
import { useEffect, useState } from "react";
import { View } from "react-native";
import { CometChat } from "@cometchat/chat-sdk-react-native";
import {
  CometChatMessageHeader,
  CometChatMessageList,
  CometChatMessageComposer,
} from "@cometchat/chat-uikit-react-native";

export default function ChatScreen() {
  const { uid } = useLocalSearchParams<{ uid: string }>();
  const [user, setUser] = useState<CometChat.User | null>(null);

      }
    },
    "android": {
      "permissions": [
        "android.permission.INTERNET",
