zod SKILL.md skillA

zod from kriscard/skills is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Install it, pinned
mdr add kriscard/skills/zod@git:20261028.e26808d

Pins git:20261028.e26808d in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Implement, review, or debug Zod 4 schemas and their runtime contracts. Use only when the requested outcome concerns Zod parsing, transforms, structured errors, schema composition, codecs, JSON Schema artifacts, Mini, or Zod interoperability. Check the installed entrypoint before using capability-sensitive APIs.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Zod 4

Make untrusted values earn a trusted type once. Start this workflow only when the requested outcome
changes, diagnoses, or verifies a Zod contract. Keep unrelated form lifecycle, authorization, UI, and
transport failures with their owners even when Zod is nearby.

## Workflow

### 1. Establish the effective contract

Inspect the resolved `zod` version, actual import path, TypeScript configuration, and affected
adapter declarations. This skill targets Zod 4. Use the package root or `zod/v4` for Classic and a
Mini entrypoint only when the code intentionally uses Mini's functional API. Capability-check APIs
introduced during Zod 4 instead of treating the major as a promise that every minor exposes them.

**Complete when:** the exact Zod 4 version, entrypoint, TypeScript version, and adapter versions are
known, and every proposed API exists in those installed declarations.

### 2. Write the boundary contract

Before code, record:

- the untrusted producer and raw representation;
- the parsed output and whether it is still a wire model or a domain value;
- strip, reject, preserve, or catchall behavior for unknown object keys;
- synchronous or asynchronous parsing;
…

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add kriscard/skills/zod@sha256:aff18fe27003f792

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261028.e26808d, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
