Practical Error Handling with fp-ts

This skill teaches you how to handle errors without try/catch spaghetti. No academic jargon - just practical patterns for real problems.

Detailed Guide

Read [the detailed guide](references/detailed-guide.md) before executing this skill. It retains the complete procedure and reference material. Treat its safety, prerequisites, and validation requirements as mandatory. For focused work, load the relevant sections; for end-to-end work, read the guide completely.

When to Use This Skill

• When you want type-safe error handling in TypeScript
• When replacing try/catch with Either and TaskEither patterns
• When building APIs or services that need explicit error types
• When accumulating multiple validation errors

The core idea: Errors are just data. Instead of throwing them into the void and hoping someone catches them, return them as values that TypeScript can track.

Limitations

• Use this skill only when the task clearly matches the scope described above.
• Do not treat the output as a substitute for environment-specific validation, testing, or expert review.
• Stop and ask for clarification if required inputs, permissions, safety boundaries, or success criteria are missing.
