better-result

Type-safe error handling for TypeScript with Result types

Replaces thrown exceptions and silent failures with explicit, type-checked Result values in TypeScript codebases. Guides AI agents through auditing existing error handling, adopting tagged errors, and migrating from version 2 to 3. Eliminates hidden runtime crashes by forcing every failure path to be handled at compile time.

Frequently Asked Questions

FAQPage Schema
How to install better-result?▼

Run `npx skills add dmmulroy/better-result --all -g -y` in your terminal to install all skills in this suite globally.

What problem does better-result solve?▼

It makes failures explicit in TypeScript by returning typed Ok or Err values instead of throwing exceptions, so the compiler forces you to handle every error case.

How do I migrate from better-result 2.x to 3.0?▼

The migrate-better-result-3 skill inventories your code, runs an automated codemod for the new TaggedError syntax, and walks you through replacing removed serialization helpers with codecs.

Can an AI agent adopt better-result in my existing codebase?▼

Yes. The adopt-better-result skill audits your repository's error handling, proposes a migration plan, and implements it one vertical slice at a time with your approval.

Does better-result work with async code?▼

Yes. It supports async generator composition with Result.await, promise chaining combinators, and built-in retry logic for asynchronous operations.
