Our review

Runs TypeScript type-check and ESLint, then automatically fixes any errors found, following strict guidelines to delete unused code.

Strengths

  • Automates fixing type and lint errors
  • Enforces deletion of unused code (no underscore prefixing)
  • Fix-and-check cycle until clean pass
  • Respects project architecture and type safety

Limitations

  • Requires a preconfigured npm run check command
  • May introduce unwanted changes if error analysis is misinterpreted
  • Does not handle business logic or test failures
When to use it

When you need to validate and clean TypeScript code quality before a commit, PR, or deployment.

When not to use it

When the project lacks a check script or you intentionally want to keep unused code.

Security analysis

Safe
Quality score90/100

The skill instructs running 'npm run check' (a local development script) and using the Edit tool to fix found errors. No destructive or exfiltrating actions are involved, and no network requests or external scripts are executed. It is a standard code-quality maintenance task.

Examples

Fix all TS and ESLint errors
Run the check command to find and fix all TypeScript and ESLint errors in the project. Make sure to delete any unused imports, variables, or parameters instead of prefixing them with underscores.
Check and fix a specific file
Run TypeScript type-check and ESLint on src/components/Button.tsx, then fix any errors found.

TypeScript and ESLint Check & Fix

Run TypeScript type-check and ESLint, then fix any errors found.

Instructions

  1. Run the check command:

    • Execute npm run check to run both TypeScript type-check and ESLint
    • Capture and analyze all errors and warnings
  2. If errors are found:

    • Analyze each error carefully before making changes
    • Fix TypeScript errors:
      • Resolve type mismatches
      • Add missing type annotations
      • Fix import/export issues
      • Ensure proper null/undefined handling
    • Fix ESLint errors:
      • CRITICAL: For no-unused-vars errors, DELETE unused code completely
      • DO NOT prefix variables with underscores - remove them instead
      • Fix import order and formatting issues
      • Resolve any other ESLint rule violations
    • Use appropriate tools:
      • Use Edit tool for file changes (not bash sed/awk)
      • Use Read tool to examine files before editing
      • Make targeted, precise fixes
  3. Re-run the check:

    • After fixing errors, run npm run check again
    • Verify all errors are resolved
  4. Repeat until clean:

    • Continue the fix-and-check cycle until npm run check passes without errors
    • Report the final status

Project-Specific Guidelines

  • Unused Code Policy: DELETE unused imports, variables, and parameters - don't prefix with underscores
  • Architecture: Follow /src/ directory structure with features, components, lib separation
  • Type Safety: Maintain proper TypeScript types throughout
  • Code Quality: Ensure all fixes improve code quality, don't just silence errors

Success Criteria

  • npm run check completes with exit code 0
  • ✅ No TypeScript errors
  • ✅ No ESLint errors or warnings
  • ✅ All unused code removed (not just prefixed)
  • ✅ Code remains functional after fixes
