Automated safety checks
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.

About this skill
What it does
This skill enables AI agents to understand and generate function type expressions in TypeScript. It allows for precise definition of function signatures, including parameter types, return types, and optional properties. This capability is crucial for creating robust and maintainable TypeScript codebases by ensuring type safety and clarity.
When to use it
- Defining complex API endpoints: Use this skill when you need to accurately represent the input and output types of a backend API function.
- Refactoring existing JavaScript code to TypeScript: This skill can help in converting legacy JavaScript functions into properly typed TypeScript equivalents.
- Generating documentation for TypeScript projects: The skill can automatically create clear and concise documentation based on function type definitions.
- Creating reusable TypeScript components: Define precise function types to ensure that components interact correctly with each other.
Key capabilities
- Understanding of function type syntax in TypeScript.
- Generation of function type expressions including parameter lists, return types, and optional properties.
- Ability to infer function types from existing code.
Example prompts
- "Generate a TypeScript function type for a function that takes two numbers and returns their sum."
- "Explain the difference between
(x: number) => voidand(x?: number) => voidin TypeScript." - “Create a function type expression representing a function that accepts an object with 'name' (string) and 'age' (number) properties, and returns a boolean.”
Tips & gotchas
This skill requires some familiarity with TypeScript syntax. While it can generate types based on descriptions, providing clear examples of the desired function signature will yield more accurate results.
