Live repository

Not pinned. Installing fetches whatever the repository holds at the time you run the command.

No human has reviewed this code. The checks below are a static scan of the files at one commit — nobody has run this skill or judged whether it works. A skill runs with whatever access you give your agent, so read the source before you install it.

Automated safety checks

scanned

This skill passed all 6 checks. We read its files at one commit and looked for the things that make a skill dangerous to run — not for whether it works.

  • Declares what it does: passed

    SKILL.md parses and declares a name and a description.

    SKILL.md exists, its frontmatter parses, and it declares a name and a description.

  • No undeclared network calls: passed

    Makes no network calls.

    Every host the skill dials — from its scripts, its config endpoints or the commands it tells the agent to run — is either well-known package and API infrastructure or declared in its own frontmatter. Links in documentation are not counted.

  • No obfuscated payloads: passed

    No encoded or obfuscated payloads.

    No base64, hex or compressed blob is decoded and then executed, and no encoded shell commands.

  • No credential access: passed

    Reads no keys, tokens, keychains or credential files.

    Neither the code nor the SKILL.md instructions read SSH keys, cloud credentials, keychains, token stores, browser cookie databases or dotfiles that hold secrets.

  • No pipe-to-shell installers: passed

    No pipe-to-shell or download-and-run installers.

    No `curl … | sh` pattern, in the code or in the instructions, that runs code fetched at run time.

  • Pinned to a commit: passed

    Scanned dalestudy/skills at a11368b0a0.

    The exact upstream commit SHA that was scanned is recorded, so the result refers to specific bytes.

This is a static scan, not a review. It reads the skill's files; it does not run them, and it cannot tell you whether the skill is any good or whether the code does what its description says. A skill runs with whatever access you give your agent.

About this skill

What it does

This skill generates TypeScript code snippets and explanations based on natural language descriptions, specifically for backend development tasks. It leverages best practices from the TypeScript Handbook and aims to help developers write more robust and maintainable code by emphasizing type safety and clarity. The skill provides guidance on various aspects of TypeScript including type inference, explicit return types, avoiding any, and utilizing utility types.

When to use it

  • When you need a quick example of how to implement a specific TypeScript feature or pattern.
  • To understand the rationale behind TypeScript best practices like using explicit return types or avoiding the any type.
  • For guidance on structuring your TypeScript project, including setting up appropriate tsconfig configurations for different environments (Next.js, Node.js, React).
  • When you're looking for examples of custom utility types or event type definitions.

Key capabilities

  • Provides code snippets demonstrating TypeScript best practices.
  • Offers explanations on type inference and explicit return types.
  • Guides users on avoiding the any type and using alternatives like unknown with type guards.
  • Suggests appropriate tsconfig configurations for various project types.
  • Covers topics such as function definitions, generics, and utility types.

Example prompts

  • "Show me an example of a TypeScript function with an explicit return type."
  • "How do I use a type guard in TypeScript?"
  • "What's the best way to configure tsconfig for a React project?"

Tips & gotchas

  • The skill is focused on backend development and may not cover all aspects of TypeScript.
  • It emphasizes following the principles outlined in the TypeScript Handbook, so familiarity with that resource is helpful.
  • Pay attention to the provided templates (e.g., assets/types.guards.ts, assets/tsconfig.nextjs.ts) for inspiration and starting points.
