Better-T-Stack is a command-line tool that generates end-to-end, type-safe TypeScript project scaffolds from selectable frontend, backend, database, authentication, and tooling options. Developers use it to start full-stack applications with a stack tailored to their needs. The catalogue includes skills, agents, commands, an MCP server, and a plugin for having coding agents plan and generate Better-T-Stack projects.
Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00102 | $0.00831 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00041 | $0.00332 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00020 | $0.00166 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00010 | $0.00083 |
Grade A, and why
add-to-project 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 2d ago.
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.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 59 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Add to an existing Better-T-Stack project
Add tooling to a Better-T-Stack project with its add flow instead of wiring it by hand. For a new project, use the scaffold-project skill.
bts.jsonc at the project root records the stack chosen at creation and a reproducibleCommand that recreates it. The add flow reads it to detect the stack and updates it afterwards.
Pick the interface
bts_add_addonstool: the local MCP server.- A shell: the CLI's
add-json. - Neither: give the user the command
bunx create-better-t-stack@latest add --addons <names>, using the project's package runner.
The hosted MCP server can't change an existing project.
Steps
-
Read
bts.jsonc. It tells you the current stack. If it's missing,addcan't run. Tell the user instead of recreating the file. Never edit it by hand. -
Check nested options. Some addons take options in
addonOptions: the Fumadocs template, search and AI chat, the WXT and OpenTUI templates, the MCP addon's servers and agents, and the Skills addon's sources. Get their shape frombts_get_schemaornpx create-better-t-stack@latest schema --name addonOptions. -
Plan. Call
bts_plan_addons, or run:npx create-better-t-stack@latest add-json --json '{ "projectDir": "./my-app", "addons": ["pwa", "biome"], "dryRun": true }'Pass
addons, a workspacepackagename, or both. Show the user what will change, including any conflict the plan reports. -
Apply after the user agrees:
bts_add_addons, oradd-jsonwithoutdryRun. -
Prove it runs. Run
<packageManager> install. With the user's OK, run the project's typecheck or build script. Report the exact error if a step fails. -
Report what changed and the follow-up commands.
What can be added
Addons: pwa, tauri, electrobun, starlight, fumadocs, biome, oxlint, ultracite, husky, lefthook, turborepo, nx, vite-plus, mcp, skills, opentui, wxt, evlog.
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.

add-to-project is a skill published in the GitHub repository AmanVarshney01/create-better-t-stack (5,836 stars, last pushed today), licensed MIT. It adds 102 tokens to every session and 831 once invoked, about $0.0004 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
