shadcn/lint uses TypeScript types to constrain agent style changes at compile time

shadcn · x · 2026-09-15

shadcn explains the mechanism behind shadcn/lint: code is verified by the toolchain, not convention — and the toolchain everyone knows is TypeScript.

For example, a Button's style prop can be restricted to margin and width, so if an agent tries to change its padding, it gets a type error immediately.
