Consolidate webapp skills @W-21338965@ (#118)
* Consolidate webapp skills into three focused skills

Merge 10 granular webapp skills into 3 consolidated skills:
- generating-webapp-ui: pages, components, layout, navigation, design
- generating-webapp-metadata: scaffolding, bundles, CSP, deployment
- generating-webapp-features: feature CLI (search, describe, install)

Keep standalone: implementing-webapp-file-upload,
implementing-webapp-agentforce-conversation-client (renamed from managing-),
using-webapp-salesforce-data.

Remove data visualization skill (not helpful).
Remove system-level instructions (a4drules refs, shell commands).
Incorporate Anthropic frontend-design skill content into UI skill.

* Fix frontmatter name to match directory for agentforce skill

# Implementation — Component
### Rules
1. **Always use shadcn components** from `@/components/ui` — never build raw HTML equivalents for buttons, inputs, cards, alerts, tabs, tables, or labels.
2. **All styling via Tailwind** — utility classes only. No inline `style={{}}`, CSS Modules, or other styling systems.
3. **Use design tokens** — prefer `bg-background`, `text-foreground`, `text-muted-foreground`, `border`, `bg-primary`, `text-destructive`, `rounded-lg` over hardcoded colors.
4. **Use `cn()`** from `@/lib/utils` for conditional or composable class names.
5. **TypeScript** — functional components with typed props interface; always accept `className?: string`.
### File Location — Component
| Component type | Location | Export |
| ---------------------------------------------- | ---------------------------------------- | ---------------------------------------- |
| Shared UI primitive (reusable across features) | `src/components/ui/` — add to `index.ts` | Named export |
| Feature-specific (e.g., dashboard widget) | `src/components/<feature>/` | Named export, import directly where used |
| Page-level layout element | `src/components/layout/` | Named export |
### Component Structure
```tsx
import { Card, CardHeader, CardTitle, CardContent } from "@/components/ui";
import { cn } from "@/lib/utils";
interface MyComponentProps {
title: string;
value: string;
className?: string;
}
export function MyComponent({ title, value, className }: MyComponentProps) {
return (
<Card className={cn("border", className)}>
<CardHeader>
<CardTitle className="text-sm font-medium">{title}</CardTitle>
</CardHeader>
<CardContent>
<p className="text-2xl font-semibold text-foreground">{value}</p>
</CardContent>
</Card>
);
}
```
### State and Hooks
- **Local state only:** keep `useState`, `useReducer`, `useRef` inside the component.
- **Shared or complex state:** extract to a custom hook in `src/hooks/` (prefix with `use`, e.g. `useFormData`). Do this when more than one component needs the state, or when multiple hooks are composed together.
### Adding the Component to a Page
```tsx
// In the target page file, e.g. src/pages/HomePage.tsx
import { MyComponent } from "@/components/<feature>/MyComponent";
export default function HomePage() {
return (
<div className="max-w-7xl mx-auto px-4 sm:px-6 lg:px-8 py-12">
<MyComponent title="Status" value="Active" />
</div>
);
}
```
### Useful Patterns — Component
- **Programmatic navigation:** use `useNavigate` from `react-router`; call `navigate(path)` — consistent with GlobalSearchInput, SearchResultCard, MaintenanceTable, and other components in the web application.
- **Page container:** `max-w-7xl mx-auto px-4 sm:px-6 lg:px-8 py-12`
- **Icons:** `lucide-react`; add `aria-hidden="true"` on decorative icons
- **Focus styles:** use `focus-visible:` variants
- **Multiple visual variants:** use CVA (`cva`) and `VariantProps`
- **shadcn import barrel:** `import { Button, Card, Input } from "@/components/ui"`
### Confirm — Component
- Imports use path aliases (`@/`, not deep relative paths)
- No raw `<button>`, `<input>`, or styled `<div>` where shadcn equivalents exist
- No inline `style={{}}` — Tailwind only
