Format code with pnpm

Use this skill any time formatting is required in the TypeSpec repo. Do not assume formatting happens automatically; always run pnpm format following this guidance.

Preconditions

  • Command must run from the repository root (where package.json and pnpm-workspace.yaml live).
  • Dependencies must be installed.

Steps

  • Confirm you are at the repo root.
  • If node_modules are missing or pnpm complains about missing packages, run:
   pnpm install
  • Run the formatter:
   pnpm format
  • If the command fails with ERR_PNPM_NO_IMPORTER_MANIFEST_FOUND, you are not at the repo root. cd to the root and retry.
  • If pnpm format exits with a non-zero code but prints a list of changed files, re-run pnpm format once to ensure a clean exit.

Notes

  • Do not cancel the command; formatting may take about a minute.

How to use it

Copy the folder

Take microsoft/pnpm-format from the repository into ~/.claude/skills for personal use, or into .claude/skills inside a project.

Check the name does not clash

The agent identifies a skill by the name field in its header. Two skills with the same name cannot sit side by side — one of them will be ignored.

Install what it needs

The instructions reference npm. Without those the skill loads but fails at the first command.
