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 marius-townhouse/effective-typescript-skills at d754db2077.

    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 allows AI agents to understand and manipulate tsconfig.json files, which are configuration files for the TypeScript compiler. It can extract specific options from a tsconfig.json, modify existing options, or even generate basic tsconfig.json files based on provided requirements. This is useful for ensuring consistent build configurations across projects and customizing TypeScript compilation behavior.

When to use it

  • Troubleshooting build errors: When encountering TypeScript compilation issues, the agent can analyze the tsconfig.json to identify potential misconfigurations.
  • Automating project setup: Generate a basic tsconfig.json file with sensible defaults for new TypeScript projects.
  • Enforcing coding standards: Modify existing options in a tsconfig.json to enforce specific linting or compilation rules across a team's codebase.
  • Migrating TypeScript versions: Update compiler options when upgrading the TypeScript version used in a project.

Key capabilities

  • Extracting values from tsconfig.json files.
  • Modifying existing compiler options within a tsconfig.json.
  • Generating basic tsconfig.json files.

Example prompts

  • "What is the value of 'target' in this tsconfig.json?" (followed by providing the file content)
  • "Add 'strict: true' to this tsconfig.json." (followed by providing the file content)
  • “Create a basic tsconfig.json for TypeScript 5 with ESNext as target.”

Tips & gotchas

The agent requires the full content of the tsconfig.json file to operate effectively. Complex or deeply nested configurations might require more specific instructions for modification.
