How does this skill handle migration from v3?

The skill provides specific patterns for replacing deprecated methods, such as using shape spreading instead of .merge() and updating error handling to use .issues instead of .errors.

Is it suitable for production API validation?

Absolutely. It promotes the use of .safeParse() and strictObject() to ensure that external data is validated securely without crashing your application.

Can this skill help with TypeScript type safety?

Yes, it specializes in using z.infer to automatically generate TypeScript types from your Zod schemas, ensuring total consistency between your validation logic and type system.

What are the biggest changes in Zod v4?

Zod v4 introduces top-level functions for string formats (like z.email()), redesigned function schemas, and mandatory key/value schemas for records, alongside changed error customization syntax.
