nw-fp-scala SKILL.md skillA

nw-fp-scala from nwave-ai/nwave is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Install it, pinned

mdr add nwave-ai/nwave/nw-fp-scala@git:20260829.e97726a

Pins git:20260829.e97726a in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Scala 3 language-specific patterns with ZIO, Cats Effect, and opaque types.

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

# FP in Scala 3 -- Functional Software Crafter Skill

Cross-references: [fp-principles](../nw-fp-principles/SKILL.md) | [fp-domain-modeling](../nw-fp-domain-modeling/SKILL.md) | [property-based-testing](../nw-property-based-testing/SKILL.md)

## When to Choose Scala

- Best for: JVM with full FP power | large-scale systems | data engineering | richest effect ecosystem
- Not ideal for: small teams wanting simplicity | Android (use Kotlin) | teams allergic to OO/FP duality

## [STARTER] Quick Setup

```bash
cs install scala3-compiler scala3-repl sbt
sbt new scala/scala3.g8 && cd order-service
# Add zio, zio-test, scalacheck to build.sbt
sbt compile && sbt test
```

## [STARTER] Type System for Domain Modeling

### Choice Types and Record Types

```scala
enum PaymentMethod:
  case CreditCard(cardNumber: String, expiryDate: String)
  case BankTransfer(accountNumber: String)
  case Cash

case class Customer(
  customerId: CustomerId,
  customerName: CustomerName,
  customerEmail: EmailAddress
)
```

Case classes provide structural equality, copy, and pattern matching for free.

### [STARTER] Domain Wrappers (Opaque Types) -- Zero Cost

```scala
object OrderDomain:
…

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint

mdr add nwave-ai/nwave/nw-fp-scala@sha256:b594aa82bd6e31c9

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260829.e97726a, 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.
