typescript
This skill should be used when the user asks to "optimize TypeScript performance", "speed up tsc compilation", "configure tsconfig.json", "fix type errors", "improve async patterns", or encounters TS errors (TS2322, TS2339, "is not assignable to"). Also triggers on .ts, .tsx, .d.ts file work involving type definitions, module organization, or memory management. Does NOT cover TypeScript basics, framework-specific patterns, or testing.
33vitest
Vitest testing framework patterns for test setup, async testing, mocking with vi.*, snapshots, and test performance (formerly test-vitest). This skill should be used when writing or debugging Vitest tests. This skill does NOT cover TDD methodology (use test-tdd skill), API mocking with MSW (use test-msw skill), or Jest-specific APIs.
29react-hook-form
React Hook Form performance optimization for client-side form validation using useForm, useWatch, useController, and useFieldArray. This skill should be used when building client-side controlled forms with React Hook Form library. This skill does NOT cover React 19 Server Actions, useActionState, or server-side form handling (use react-19 skill for those).
29tailwind
Tailwind CSS v4 performance optimization and best practices guidelines (formerly tailwindcss-v4-style). This skill should be used when writing, reviewing, or refactoring Tailwind CSS v4 code to ensure optimal build performance, minimal CSS output, and correct usage of v4 features. Triggers on tasks involving Tailwind configuration, @theme directive, utility classes, responsive design, dark mode, container queries, or CSS generation optimization.
24zod
Zod schema validation best practices for type safety, parsing, and error handling. This skill should be used when defining z.object schemas, using z.string validations, safeParse, or z.infer. This skill does NOT cover React Hook Form integration patterns (use react-hook-form skill) or OpenAPI client generation (use orval skill).
24web-design-guidelines
Review UI code for Web Interface Guidelines compliance. Use when asked to "review my UI", "check accessibility", "audit design", "review UX", or "check my site against best practices".
