SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Improve error handling in TypeScript projects by standardizing on neverthrow for new code and a legacy Result type for compatibility.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Supports Result pattern with ok/err and isOk/isErr checks
  • Provides utilities: wrap, retry, parallel, nonCritical, and error reporting
  • Enables production-grade error flows across APIs, token management, and IO operations

Quick Start

Install neverthrow in your TypeScript project and begin wrapping async calls with ErrorHandler.wrap for consistent, typed error handling.

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I handle async errors in TypeScript using neverthrow?

Handle async errors in TypeScript by wrapping calls with the ErrorHandler.wrap utility to produce typed Result objects. This standardizes error flows using ok/err constructs instead of throwing exceptions directly.

What is the best way to add retry logic with backoff to TypeScript API clients?

Add retry logic with backoff to TypeScript API clients using the ErrorHandler.retry utility. It integrates with the Result pattern to automatically reattempt failed IO operations and return controlled error states.

Can I use a legacy Result type for compatibility while standardizing on neverthrow for new code?

Yes, you can use a legacy Result type for compatibility while standardizing new code on neverthrow. The approach supports both neverthrow patterns and a custom compatibility Result type to ease migration.

How do I run parallel async operations with typed error handling in TypeScript?

Run parallel async operations with typed error handling in TypeScript using the ErrorHandler.parallel utility. It coordinates multiple IO workflows concurrently while propagating controlled errors through the Result pattern.

When should I use nonCritical error handling in IO-heavy TypeScript workflows?

Use the nonCritical error handling utility in IO-heavy TypeScript workflows when certain operation failures should not halt the entire process. It isolates non-blocking failures while maintaining typed Result propagation.

Does this error handling approach work for token management in TypeScript?

Yes, this error handling approach works for token management in TypeScript. It provides production-grade error flows specifically applicable to token managers, API clients, and IO operations requiring typed results.
