Can it handle asynchronous code?

Yes, it specifically includes patterns for converting async/await and Promise-based code into Result.tryPromise and generator-based workflows.

Should I migrate my entire codebase at once?

No, the skill recommends a boundary-first strategy, starting with I/O points like APIs and databases, then propagating Result types inward to ensure a stable transition.

Does it create custom error classes?

It helps define and implement TaggedError classes, which provide better context and type-safety compared to standard JavaScript Error objects.

What does the better-result migration skill do?

It automates the migration of imperative error handling like try/catch and Promise rejections into typed Result patterns using the better-result library.

Migrates legacy try/catch and Promise-based error handling to typed Result patterns using the better-result library.

The better-result migration skill streamlines the transition from imperative error handling to railway-oriented programming in TypeScript codebases. It automates the conversion of standard try/catch blocks, null checks, and async rejections into robust Result types, while helping developers define clear TaggedError categories for domain-specific logic. By leveraging generator-based composition and structured migration strategies, this skill ensures more predictable control flow and improved type safety across I/O boundaries and internal business logic.
