What problem does it solve?

This Skill provides an AI-powered floating help beacon that sits as a lightweight widget in a React app, enabling users to get quick, contextual help by querying documentation and AI responses, reducing support friction.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Floating beacon widget for React apps that surfaces instant help based on your documentation and articles.
  • Client-side search of article titles, tags, and content to surface relevant results before querying the AI.
  • Claude AI integration via the Anthropic API to ground responses in your docs; a human fallback offers a "Contact Support" option when the AI cannot answer.
  • Simple integration: drop in a HelpBeacon component, configure help.config.json, and customize greeting and position.

Quick Start

Install the beacon in your project, render the HelpBeacon component in your app layout, and configure help.config.json with beacon settings. Ensure ANTHROPIC_API_KEY is available in your environment and then start your app to see the floating beacon in action.
