Code Block

Read Only File

A listing of a generated file: a lock in the header, a diagonal hatch over the code and a note pointing at where the edits actually belong.

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

  • the file code through code
  • the file path through path
  • the reason for the ban through reason

A link for your AI agent: preview, code and instructions.

FAQ

How do I add Read Only File 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 Read Only File depend on?
No npm packages beyond React and Tailwind CSS.
What can I change in Read Only File?
Adapt: the file code through code; the file path through path; the reason for the ban through reason. Keep as installed: the local --vibeui-codeblock-026-* palette — do not swap it for your theme tokens; the hatch as a separate layer: dimming the text is wrong — people still read it; pointer-events:none on the hatch layer, otherwise the code can no longer be selected.
Is Read Only File free?
Yes. The preview is open without an account; with a free account you can copy up to 20 components a month.

For developers

npx shadcn@latest add https://vibeui.club/r/pro/codeblock-026.json

This command needs a signed link: sign in and open “Component source” below — it issues a working link valid for 30 minutes. All install options

Technical notes

The component is self-contained: one file, zero dependencies, its own palette in the local --vibeui-codeblock-026-* variables. Server component: no hooks. The hatching is a separate layer in ::after with pointer-events: none — the text itself must not be dimmed, it is meant to be read and has to stay selectable with a mouse. The ban on editing is declared three times: by the lock badge in the header, by the hatching and by the caption under the code that names the real place to edit. The palette is built on light-dark(): the block has no surface, and the code plate and the hatching are translucent layers, so the listing reads on a light page as well as on a dark one.
