Use when setting up Node.js projects with native TypeScript support, configuring type stripping (--experimental-strip-types), writing Node 22+ TypeScript without a build step, or when the user mentions 'native TypeScript in Node', 'strip types', 'Node 22 TypeScript', '.ts files without compil…

Install

Paste this into your terminal. It downloads exactly the version we scanned, not whatever is newest.

if [ -e ~/.agents/skills/'node' ] || [ -L ~/.agents/skills/'node' ]; then echo 'A skill folder named node already exists — not replacing it' >&2; false; else d=$(mktemp -d) && git clone --quiet --filter=blob:none --no-checkout 'https://github.com/mcollina/skills' "$d" && git -C "$d" checkout --quiet 'c75d70dbfbe991d8cec42aeda0b64ff14fbb9ac7' -- 'skills/node' && mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills && cp -R "$d"/'skills/node' ~/.agents/skills/'node' && rm -rf "$d"; fi

Codex reads ~/.agents/skills directly. For Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, Gemini CLI, Antigravity or OpenCode, also link it. For Claude Code: ln -s ~/.agents/skills/'node' ~/.claude/skills/'node' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
