SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) and references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

Manually setting up tRPC routers, procedures, and Zod schemas is a repetitive and error-prone process that can lead to inconsistencies and type-safety issues. This Skill automates the boilerplate, ensuring consistent, type-safe API development.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Router Scaffolding: Quickly create new tRPC router files with the correct structure and boilerplate.
  • Procedure Generation: Add type-safe query or mutation procedures to existing routers, complete with input/output schema placeholders.
  • Zod Schema Creation: Generate Zod validation schemas with automatic type inference, ensuring robust runtime validation for your API.
  • Use Case: You need to add a new API endpoint for user profile updates. Use this skill to scaffold the Zod schema, add the mutation procedure to the user router, and ensure all type exports are correctly set up, saving significant development time and preventing common errors.

Quick Start

Use the trpc-scaffolder skill to create a new 'user' router and add a 'getProfile' query procedure.

FAQPage Schema
How do I create type-safe tRPC APIs with Zod validation?

Type-safe tRPC APIs combine tRPC routers with Zod schemas to validate inputs at runtime and infer types automatically. This Skill automates scaffolding routers, procedures, and schemas together, eliminating manual boilerplate and ensuring consistency across your API layer.

Can I generate Zod schemas automatically for my tRPC procedures?

Yes. This Skill generates Zod validation schemas with automatic type inference for your tRPC procedures. The schemas enforce runtime validation while maintaining type safety, so your API inputs and outputs are validated and type-checked throughout your backend.

What's the fastest way to add a new procedure to an existing tRPC router?

Add procedures to existing routers by scaffolding mutations or queries with input/output schema placeholders already connected to your router structure. The Skill registers procedures in your _app.ts and exports inferred types, reducing setup time and preventing registration errors.

Do I need to manually register tRPC routers in my application?

This Skill handles router registration by enforcing setup in _app.ts as part of the scaffolding process. You define your router logic, and the Skill ensures it's correctly registered and type exports are available for your frontend or consuming code.

How does this approach compare to writing tRPC routers manually?

Manual tRPC setup is repetitive and error-prone; this Skill enforces templates and consistent patterns for router creation, procedure addition, and Zod schema generation. You get faster iteration, fewer inconsistencies, and guaranteed type safety without repeating boilerplate.

Can I use this Skill for fullstack type safety between my API and frontend?

Yes. By generating type-safe tRPC routers and exporting inferred types, the Skill enables end-to-end type safety across your fullstack. Your frontend code can import and use the same types your backend procedures export, eliminating type mismatches.
