RexBoard Components Catalog

Use this skill as the component selection index for RexBoard. It should answer "Which RexBoard component should I use?" and then route to the correct specialized RexBoard skill for implementation details.

Use This First

For any RexBoard request:

1. Confirm the project has RexBoard setup. If not, use rexboard-setup-and-factory.
2. Identify the board-game intent: grid, board/chess, rendering, movement/pathfinding, matching, MiniBoard, visibility/routes, or map import.
3. Read references/component-catalog.md to choose the component and related skill.
4. Use the specialized skill for config details and recipes.

Routing

Reference

Read references/component-catalog.md for the complete compact selection table.

Selection Rules

• Use Board as the central data model for placement, occupancy, bounds, input, and board-level coordinate conversion.
• Use QuadGrid or HexagonGrid before board operations that need coordinates.
• Use plain Phaser game objects plus board.addChess(...) when rendering is custom.
• Use RexBoard Shape, Image, or Sprite when the object should be created directly at board tile coordinates.
• Use MoveTo for animated tile movement and PathFinder for planning.
• Use Match for symbols and patterns; it does not replace board occupancy.
• Use MiniBoard when multiple chess pieces move, rotate, mirror, or place as one composite.

Gotchas

• This skill is an index, not a config reference. Do not invent full configs from it alone.
• Do not trigger on generic board-game questions unless the user mentions RexBoard, rexBoard, board-components, or Rex plugin usage.
• Some behavior details are clearer in implementation than in .d.ts; for exact events and factory signatures, inspect plugins/board/<component>/Factory.js or the relevant source file.
• Keep helper/factory boundaries clear: factories are on this.rexBoard.add, helpers are on this.rexBoard.
