typescript

A TypeScript development rule set covering package installation, environment variables, and recommended libraries for common file and data tasks.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when choosing TypeScript over Python and when implementing PDF, CSV, spreadsheet, HTML, Markdown, data-analysis, or charting tasks.
Why use it?
It gives the coding agent consistent choices for TypeScript projects and avoids ad hoc approaches to files, PDFs, CSVs, HTML, and other formats.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

typescript scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured yesterday.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Origin

This is a copy

92% identical to typescript — 5 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.

What it actually says

TypeScript

  • TypeScript is available under the tsx command.
  • Use pnpm install to install dependencies.
  • Env vars should be loaded from the .env file using dotenv - make sure you use import { config } from 'dotenv' to load the env vars.

Use TypeScript when TypeScript standard libraries make it best path forward. For example, PDF processing.

Prefer typescript over python for any task that can be done in typescript.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
