Category: Engineering  ·  Sub-category: architecture  ·  Last updated:
This skill should be used when the user asks about "Zod 4", "Zod v4", "upgrading to Zod 4", "Zod 4 breaking changes", "Zod 4 migration", "z.merge deprecated", "Zod 4 error parameter", "z.config", "Zod registries", "z.meta", "ZodMini", "z.file", "z.templateLiteral", "z.toJSONSchema", "Zod 4 vs Zod 3", "Zod 4 optional default behavior", or "Zod 4 performance". Covers Zod v4 architecture, all breaking changes, new APIs, and migration strategies.

From the source SKILL.md

Zod 4 is a ground-up rewrite focused on TypeScript compiler performance, bundle size, and tree-shaking. The core API surface is 95% backward-compatible, but several specific behaviors changed in ways that cause silent bugs if not addressed.
