Type Enum Dict
Create, update, or maintain TypeScript type unions, template literal types, runtime enums, and dict mappings in a monorepo core package. Use this skill whenever the user needs to express a finite set of string values (states, phases, categories, MIME types, formatted strings) or needs the runtime enum version, human-readable labels, or value-mapping dicts for those types. Trigger on: "add a type for X", "create an enum for Y", "add a dict/description for Z", "add a state/phase type", "I need a list of X values at runtime", "map X to labels", "add a template literal type", or when creating/editing an entity that needs a constrained string field.
From the source SKILL.md
This skill covers three tightly-related artifacts created together whenever a domain concept needs a constrained string type at compile time and/or at runtime.
