scaffold-node

A project starter for Node.js and TypeScript applications, libraries, websites, and command-line tools. Node.js runs JavaScript outside a browser, while TypeScript adds types to JavaScript.

In plain words
What is it for?
It helps create or standardize projects using pnpm, Biome, continuous integration, release workflows, and common project files.
Why use it?
It removes repetitive setup for dependencies, code checks, environment configuration, and automated builds.

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

scaffold-node 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 — 280 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Scaffold Node/TypeScript Project

Generate a production-ready Node/TypeScript project following established CI/CD patterns. Read the scaffold-project skill first for standard files (README, AGENTS.md, LICENSE, CONTRIBUTING.md, llms.txt).

When to Use

  • Creating a new Node.js CLI, library, web app, or static site
  • Adding CI/CD to an existing Node/TypeScript project missing workflows
  • Standardizing a Node project to match org conventions

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.

scaffold-node is a skill published in the GitHub repository urmzd/dotfiles (3 stars, last pushed 20d ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 119 tokens to every session and 2,014 once invoked, about $0.0006 per session on Opus 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 2026-08-31.
