Measured entry
originui-comp-35
A controlled text input that shows a live count of remaining characters and enforces a fixed cap. It ships as a client-side React component with a small state hook, registry Input and Label primitives, shadcn-style path aliases and theme classes, and the declared radix-ui dependency.

What the harness recorded
BARE BUILD
✗ Build failed in 6.62s error during build: [vite:load-fallback] Could not load <sandbox>/src/lib/utils (imported by src/components/ui/label.tsx): ENOENT: no such file or directory, open '<sandbox>/src/lib/utils'
Verdict
A focused, accessible pattern for tightly capped text fields, with clean source and successful verified behavior. It needs a shadcn-style setup before it will build or mount, so it is best treated as a registry recipe rather than a drop-in standalone component.
Use it if
- You need a short text field where users should see how much room remains.
- Your app already uses shadcn-style Input and Label primitives and theme tokens.
- You want the counter announced politely to assistive technology.
Skip it if
- You need an uncontrolled field that plugs directly into form registration without adaptation.
- Your limit changes dynamically or must count words, bytes, or grapheme clusters.
- You want a standalone input with no alias, theme-token, or registry setup.
Install
| Declared dependencies | radix-ui |
|---|---|
| Missing on install | none |
| Bare install | fails once the shadcn-style helpers are removed, so it needs that setup |
| Provider | no provider required in the harness |
In a non-shadcn project, add radix-ui, provide compatible Input and Label primitives, copy the character-limit hook, configure the at-sign path alias, and map the Tailwind theme utilities used for muted text, spacing, and tabular numerals.
