Effect-TS Best Practices

This skill enforces opinionated, consistent patterns for Effect-TS codebases.

Effect LS diagnostics (agent usage)

Cursor's read_lints does not surface Effect Language Server diagnostics. Use the CLI:

npx effect-language-service diagnostics --file <path>
# or whole project:
npx effect-language-service diagnostics --project tsconfig.json

• Run when editing Effect code; fix reported issues (e.g. unnecessaryFailYieldableError → yield error directly)
• effect-language-service quickfixes shows proposed code changes
