Zod v4 Schema Validation
Implements Zod v4 patterns and best practices for robust TypeScript schema validation and metadata management.
This skill empowers developers to build more maintainable and type-safe TypeScript applications by providing expert guidance on Zod v4 implementations. It focuses on the modern metadata registry system, ensuring that developers use .meta() and .describe() correctly within method chains to prevent metadata loss. By highlighting common pitfalls—such as the deprecation of .merge() in favor of .extend() and the nuances of schema instance creation—this skill helps maintain clean, introspectable data models suitable for API validation, form generation, and automated documentation.
