Best use case
typescript is best used when you need a repeatable AI agent workflow instead of a one-off prompt.
TypeScript configuration, strict mode, generics, and type utilities.
Teams using typescript should expect a more consistent output, faster repeated execution, less prompt rewriting.
When to use this skill
- You want a reusable workflow that can be run more than once with consistent structure.
When not to use this skill
- You only need a quick one-off answer and do not need a reusable workflow.
- You cannot install or maintain the underlying files, dependencies, or repository context.

# TypeScript Skill
Expert assistance for TypeScript configuration and patterns.
## Capabilities
- Configure tsconfig
- Implement strict typing
- Create utility types
- Handle generics
- Design type-safe APIs
## Configuration
```json
// tsconfig.json
{
"compilerOptions": {
"strict": true,
"noUncheckedIndexedAccess": true,
"exactOptionalPropertyTypes": true,
"noImplicitReturns": true,
"noFallthroughCasesInSwitch": true,
"moduleResolution": "bundler",
"esModuleInterop": true,
"skipLibCheck": true
}
}
```
## Utility Types
```typescript
// Extract, Omit, Pick
type UserWithoutPassword = Omit<User, 'password'>;
// Conditional types
type NonNullable<T> = T extends null | undefined ? never : T;
// Mapped types
type Readonly<T> = { readonly [P in keyof T]: T[P] };
```
