What problem does it solve?

This skill addresses the challenge of maintaining consistent environment variable documentation and synchronization across a multi-package repo. It helps ensure env.ts schemas include .describe() calls and that .env.example stays in sync, reducing CI failures and configuration drift.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Centralized guidance for adding and updating environment variables
  • CI-friendly checks to enforce .describe() usage and alignment with .env.example
  • Clear categorization and descriptive comments to improve maintainability and onboarding

Quick Start

Use this skill to add a new environment variable by updating the relevant env.ts with a descriptive .describe(), add the variable to the .env.example with an appropriate comment, and verify with the check:env-descriptions script in CI.
