Google TypeScript style guide for writing clean, consistent, type-safe code.

  • Works in 8 steps: Module Organization (CRITICAL) → Type Safety (CRITICAL) → Class Design (HIGH) → …

  • Instructions only: no scripts, shell commands, URLs or credentials in SKILL.md

What it does

TS Google is an agent skill from pproenca/dot-skills. Google TypeScript style guide for writing clean, consistent, type-safe code. This skill should be used when writing, reviewing, or refactoring TypeScript code. Triggers on TypeScript files, type annotations, module imports, class design, and code style decisions.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.8k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 52 other files, including reference files and assets (for example `AGENTS.md`, `assets/templates/_template.md` and `metadata.json`).

It sits in Development, covering Type safety and Refactoring. It works with TypeScript. The repository describes itself as: A collection of AI agent skills following the Agent Skills open format. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • TypeScript files
  • Type annotations
  • Code style decisions

Example prompts

  • “/ts-google”

Workflow steps

8 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. Module Organization (CRITICAL)
  2. Type Safety (CRITICAL)
  3. Class Design (HIGH)
  4. Function Patterns (HIGH)
  5. Control Flow (MEDIUM-HIGH)
  6. Error Handling (MEDIUM)
  7. Naming & Style (MEDIUM)
  8. Literals & Coercion (LOW-MEDIUM)

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit cf93c57. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

TS Google loads about 1.8k tokens when it runs, and up to ~18k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 68 tokens; SKILL.md has 468 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~68
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.8k
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~18k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.
