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 allows you to treat TypeScript types as sets, enabling operations like intersection, union, difference, and subset checking. It provides a powerful way to reason about and manipulate type relationships programmatically within your AI agent's code. This capability can be used for advanced type analysis, refactoring, or generating type-safe configurations.
When to use it
- Type Conflict Resolution: Identify conflicting types in complex systems by performing set difference operations.
- Configuration Generation: Generate valid configuration options based on the intersection of required and available types.
- Code Refactoring: Determine if a refactor introduces incompatible type changes using subset checking.
- Advanced Type Analysis: Analyze dependencies between different parts of your codebase by representing them as sets of types.
Key capabilities
- Type Intersection (A ∩ B)
- Type Union (A ∪ B)
- Type Difference (A - B)
- Subset Checking (A ⊆ B)
Example prompts
- "What is the intersection of
stringandnumber?" - "Calculate the difference between
string | numberandboolean." - "Is
[1, 2]a subset of[1, 2, 3]?"
Tips & gotchas
This skill requires a solid understanding of TypeScript types. The results can be complex; carefully review the output to ensure it aligns with your intended type relationships.
