Setup TypeScript Best Practices

Create or update CLAUDE.md in with following content, write it strictly as it is, do not summaraise or introduce and new additional information:

## Code Style Rules

### General Principles

- **TypeScript**: All code must be strictly typed, leverage TypeScript's type safety features

### Code style rules

- Interfaces over types - use interfaces for object types
- Use enum for constant values, prefer them over string literals
- Export all types by default
- Use type guards instead of type assertions

### Best Practices

#### Library-First Approach

- Common areas where libraries should be preferred:
  - Date/time manipulation → date-fns, dayjs
  - Form validation → joi, yup, zod
  - HTTP requests → axios, got
  - State management → Redux, MobX, Zustand
  - Utility functions → lodash, ramda

#### Code Quality

- Use destructuring of objects where possible:
  - Instead of `const name = user.name` use `const { name } = user`
  - Instead of `const result = await getUser(userId)` use `const { data: user } = await getUser(userId)`
  - Instead of `const parseData = (data) => data.name` use `const parseData = ({ name }) => name`
- Use `ms` package for time related configuration and environment variables, instead of multiplying numbers by 1000

How to use tech-stack:add-typescript-best-practices on Cursor

AI-first code editor with Composer

1

Prerequisites

Before installing skills in Cursor, ensure your development environment meets these requirements:

  • Cursor installed and configured on your development machine
  • Node.js version 16.0+ with npm package manager (verify with node --version)
  • Active project directory or workspace where you want to add tech-stack:add-typescript-best-practices
2

Execute installation command

Execute the skills CLI command in your project's root directory to begin installation:

$npx skills add https://github.com/neolabhq/context-engineering-kit --skill tech-stack:add-typescript-best-practices

The skills CLI fetches tech-stack:add-typescript-best-practices from GitHub repository neolabhq/context-engineering-kit and configures it for Cursor.

3

Select Cursor when prompted

The CLI will show a list of available agents. Use arrow keys to navigate and space to select Cursor:

◆ Which agents do you want to install to?
│ ── Universal (.agents/skills) ── always included ────
│ • Amp
│ • Antigravity
│ • Cline
│ • Codex
│ ●Cursor(selected)
│ • Cursor
│ • Windsurf
4

Verify installation

Confirm successful installation by checking the skill directory location:

.cursor/skills/tech-stack:add-typescript-best-practices

Reload or restart Cursor to activate tech-stack:add-typescript-best-practices. Access the skill through slash commands (e.g., /tech-stack:add-typescript-best-practices) or your agent's skill management interface.

Security & Verification Notice

We perform automated surface-level scans (Gen AI Scanner, Socket, Snyk) during installation. These checks detect common vulnerabilities but do not guarantee complete security. Always review skill source code and verify the publisher's reputation before production use.

Skills execute code in your development environment. Always verify the publisher's identity, review recent commits, and test in isolated environments before production deployment.

Implementation Guide

Prerequisites

  • Claude Desktop or compatible AI client with skill support
  • Clear understanding of task or problem to solve
  • Willingness to iterate and refine outputs

Time Estimate

15-45 minutes depending on use case complexity

Installation Steps

  1. 1.Install skill using provided installation command
  2. 2.Test with simple use case relevant to your work
  3. 3.Evaluate output quality and relevance
  4. 4.Iterate on prompts to improve results
  5. 5.Integrate into regular workflow if valuable

Common Pitfalls

  • Expecting perfect results without iteration
  • Not providing enough context in prompts
  • Using skill for tasks outside its intended scope
  • Accepting outputs without review and validation

Best Practices

✓ Do

  • +Start with clear, specific prompts
  • +Provide relevant context and constraints
  • +Review and refine all outputs before using
  • +Iterate to improve output quality
  • +Document successful prompt patterns

✗ Don't

  • Don't use without understanding skill limitations
  • Don't skip validation of outputs
  • Don't share sensitive information in prompts
  • Don't expect skill to replace human judgment

💡 Pro Tips

  • Be specific about desired format and style
  • Ask for multiple options to choose from
  • Request explanations to understand reasoning
  • Combine AI efficiency with human expertise

When to Use This

✓ Use When

Use when skill capabilities match your task, clear ROI on time saved, and you can validate outputs. Best for repetitive tasks, learning, and quality improvement.

✗ Avoid When

Avoid when task requires deep expertise you can't validate, involves sensitive decisions, or when learning process is more valuable than speed of completion.

Learning Path

  1. 1Familiarize yourself with skill capabilities and limitations
  2. 2Start with low-risk, non-critical tasks
  3. 3Progress to more complex and valuable use cases
  4. 4Build expertise through regular use and experimentation
