Required Button Choice
A required choice that shows its own error: while nothing is checked the root matches :not(:has(input:checked)) and the whole group turns red.
React + Tailwind, shadcn-compatible: press “Copy for AI” and your Cursor or Claude Code agent installs it with the shadcn CLI.
What you can change

FAQ
- How do I add Required Button Choice with Cursor or Claude Code?
- Press “Copy for AI” on this page and paste it into your agent's chat. The instruction contains the shadcn CLI install command, the dependencies and what to keep, so the agent installs this exact component instead of recreating a lookalike.
- What does Required Button Choice depend on?
- No npm packages beyond React and Tailwind CSS.
- What can I change in Required Button Choice?
- Adapt: the set of options through options; the question text through question; the error text through error and its id through errorId. Keep as installed: the local --vibeui-buttongroup-033-* palette — do not swap it for your theme tokens; the absence of a preselected option: a default would submit a value nobody chose; required on every radio — without it the form submits empty no matter how the group looks.
- Is Required Button Choice free?
- Yes. The preview is open without an account; with a free account you can copy up to 20 components a month.

Technical notes
The component is self-contained: one file, no dependencies, its own palette in the --vibeui-buttongroup-033-* variables. It is a server component: no radio is checked in advance — otherwise the form would submit a value the user never chose. The error state is described by a single [data-vibeui-block]:not(:has(input:checked)) selector: it reddens the segment borders and reveals the error line, all without handlers. The error is tied to the fieldset through aria-describedby and duplicated by an icon: colour alone does not communicate it. The legend is visible, with float:left;width:100%;clear:both — without the clear the following flex children would wrap around it; the asterisk is marked aria-hidden, and the requirement is carried by the required attributes on the inputs.
