Agent skill

denji

Manage SVG icons as framework components using Denji CLI. Use when the user needs to add, remove, list, or manage SVG icons in React, Preact, Solid, Qwik, Vue, or Svelte projects. Triggers include requests to "add an icon", "set up icons", "manage SVG icons", "remove an icon", "list icons", or any task involving Iconify icons as framework components.

Managing SVG Icons with Denji

Denji converts Iconify SVG icons into typed framework components. Icons are fetched, optimized (SVGO), and generated as native components for your framework.

Core Workflow

bash
# 1. Initialize project
npx denji init --framework react --output ./src/icons.tsx

# 2. Add icons (prefix:name format from Iconify)
npx denji add lucide:check lucide:x lucide:arrow-right

# 3. Use in your code
tsx
import { Icons } from "./icons";

<Icons.Check className="size-4 text-green-500" />
<Icons.X className="size-4 text-red-500" />

Commands

denji init

Initialize a Denji project. Creates denji.json config and icons template.

bash
npx denji init
npx denji init --framework react --output ./src/icons.tsx
npx denji init --framework svelte --output ./src/icons --output-type folder
npx denji init --framework react --no-typescript --output ./src/icons.jsx
npx denji init --a11y hidden --forward-ref
Flag Description
--framework <name> react, preact, solid, qwik, vue, svelte
--output <path> Output path for icons file/folder
--output-type <type> file (single file) or folder (one file per icon)
--typescript / --no-typescript TypeScript or JavaScript (default: TS)
--a11y <strategy> hidden, img, title, presentation, or false
--forward-ref / --no-forward-ref Use forwardRef (React/Preact only)
--track-source / --no-track-source Track Iconify source via data-icon attr
-c, --cwd <path> Working directory

Missing flags trigger interactive prompts.

denji add <icons...>

Add icons from Iconify. Icons use prefix:name format.

bash
npx denji add lucide:check
npx denji add lucide:check mdi:home radix-icons:cross-2
npx denji add lucide:star --name FavoriteStar
npx denji add lucide:info --a11y img
Flag Description
--name <name> Custom component name (single icon only)
--a11y <strategy> Override a11y strategy for this icon
-c, --cwd <path> Working directory

Icon naming: lucide:arrow-right becomes ArrowRight (PascalCase). Override with --name.

Adding an existing icon updates it in place.

denji remove <icons...>

Remove icons by component name. Aliases: rm, delete, del.

bash
npx denji remove Check
npx denji rm Check Home ArrowRight
Flag Description
-c, --cwd <path> Working directory

denji list

List all icons in your project.

bash
npx denji list
npx denji list --json
Flag Description
--json Output as JSON
-c, --cwd <path> Working directory

Shows component names and Iconify source (if trackSource: true).

denji clear

Remove all icons. Aliases: clr, reset.

bash
npx denji clear
npx denji clear --yes
Flag Description
-y, --yes Skip confirmation prompt
-c, --cwd <path> Working directory

Config (denji.json)

The $schema field depends on how Denji is installed:

  • Locally installed (npm i -D denji): "./node_modules/denji/configuration_schema.json"
  • Not installed (using npx, bunx, pnpx, yarn dlx): "https://denji-docs.vercel.app/configuration_schema.json"
json
{
  "$schema": "./node_modules/denji/configuration_schema.json",
  "framework": "react",
  "output": "./src/icons.tsx",
  "typescript": true,
  "a11y": "hidden",
  "trackSource": true,
  "react": {
    "forwardRef": true
  },
  "hooks": {
    "postAdd": ["npx biome check --write ./src/icons.tsx"],
    "postRemove": ["npx biome check --write ./src/icons.tsx"]
  }
}

Key fields:

Field Type Description
framework string Required. react, preact, solid, qwik, vue, svelte
output string or object Required. Path string or { type: "file"|"folder", path: "..." }
typescript boolean Default: true
a11y string or false hidden, img, title, presentation, false
trackSource boolean Default: true. Adds data-icon attr
hooks object Lifecycle hooks (see below)

Output Modes

File mode (default for React, Preact, Solid, Qwik, Vue): All icons in one file.

json
{ "output": "./src/icons.tsx" }

Folder mode (required for Svelte, optional for others): One file per icon + barrel export.

json
{ "output": { "type": "folder", "path": "./src/icons" } }

Hooks

Run shell commands at lifecycle points:

json
{
  "hooks": {
    "preAdd": ["echo 'Adding icons...'"],
    "postAdd": ["npx prettier --write ./src/icons.tsx"],
    "preRemove": [],
    "postRemove": [],
    "preClear": [],
    "postClear": [],
    "preList": [],
    "postList": []
  }
}

Common Patterns

Dynamic Icons

tsx
import { Icons, type IconName } from "./icons";

function DynamicIcon({ name, ...props }: { name: IconName } & Icons.IconProps) {
  const Icon = Icons[name];
  return <Icon {...props} />;
}

<DynamicIcon name="Check" className="size-4" />

Accessibility

tsx
// Decorative icon (hidden from screen readers)
<button>
  <Icons.Check aria-hidden="true" />
  Save
</button>

// Semantic icon (announced by screen readers)
<Icons.Check role="img" aria-label="Success" />

// Icon-only button
<button aria-label="Close">
  <Icons.X aria-hidden="true" />
</button>

Formatting with Hooks

json
{
  "hooks": {
    "postAdd": ["npx biome check --write ./src/icons.tsx"],
    "postRemove": ["npx biome check --write ./src/icons.tsx"]
  }
}

Using forwardRef (React/Preact)

json
{
  "framework": "react",
  "react": { "forwardRef": true }
}
tsx
const ref = useRef<SVGSVGElement>(null);
<Icons.Check ref={ref} className="size-4" />

Framework Quick Reference

Framework Extensions Default Output Config Key Notes
React .tsx/.jsx file react forwardRef option
Preact .tsx/.jsx file preact forwardRef option (via preact/compat)
Solid .tsx/.jsx file solid Refs work natively as props
Qwik .tsx/.jsx file qwik Uses component$() in folder mode
Vue .ts/.js file vue Uses h() render functions
Svelte .svelte folder (only) svelte Svelte 5 $props() runes
