name: ant-design description: Single-file decision guide for antd 6.x, Ant Design Pro 5/ProComponents, and Ant Design X v2. Use for component selection, theming/tokens, SSR, a11y, performance, routing/access/CRUD, and AI/chat UI patterns.

Ant Design

S - Scope

• Target: antd@^6 + React 18-19, with ant-design-pro@^5 / @ant-design/pro-components and @ant-design/x@^2 when needed.
• Focus: decision guidance only; no end-user tutorials.
• Source policy: official docs only; no undocumented APIs or internal .ant-* coupling.

Default assumptions

• Language: TypeScript.
• Styling: tokens first, then classNames/styles; avoid global overrides.
• Provider: one root ConfigProvider unless strict isolation is required.

Mandatory rules

• For component questions, first map the component name to the official route slug {components} (lowercase kebab-case, e.g. TreeSelect -> tree-select, Button -> button), then request docs in this order (CN first, EN fallback):
  1. https://ant.design/components/{components}-cn
  2. https://ant.design/components/{components}
  • Examples: tree-select-cn -> tree-select, button-cn -> button.
• Use only documented antd/Pro/X APIs.
• Do not invent props/events/component names.
• Do not rely on internal DOM or .ant-* selectors.
• Theme priority: global tokens -> component tokens -> alias tokens.

P - Process

1) Classify

• Identify layer: core antd, Pro, or X.
• Confirm version, rendering mode (CSR/SSR/streaming), and data scale.

2) Request docs

• For each component, request -cn.md first, then .md fallback.
• If multiple components are involved, request each component page before deciding.

3) Decide

• Provider baseline: CSR -> ConfigProvider; SSR -> ConfigProvider + StyleProvider.
• Theming baseline: global tokens -> component tokens -> classNames/styles.
• Output recommendation + risk + verification points (SSR/a11y/perf).

O - Output

• Provide short decision rationale (1-3 sentences).
• Include minimal provider/theming strategy.
• Include concrete SSR/a11y/perf checks.
• For Pro: include route/menu/access and CRUD schema direction.
• For X: include message/tool schema and streaming state direction.

Regression checklist

• [ ] One root ConfigProvider; SSR style order/hydration verified.
• [ ] Tokens first; no broad global .ant-* overrides.
• [ ] Table has stable rowKey; sort/filter/pagination entry is unified.
• [ ] Select remote mode disables local filter when using remote search.
• [ ] Upload controlled/uncontrolled mode is explicit with failure/retry path.
• [ ] Pro route/menu/access remain consistent with backend enforcement.
• [ ] X streaming supports stop/retry and deterministic tool rendering.
