arch-tsdown-cli

arch-tsdown-cli is a TypeScript CLI package starter (based on hairyf/starter-cli) that uses tsdown for building. It provides a minimal, opinionated setup: dual surface (library + bin), ESM-only output, automatic .d.ts generation, dev bin via tsx, pnpm, Vitest, ESLint, and optional npm Trusted Publisher for CI-based releases.

The skill is based on starter-cli (arch-tsdown-cli source), generated at 2026-01-30.

Recommended practices:

• Use dev bin (tsx) locally and prod bin (dist) in publishConfig
• Build pure ESM; enable dts and keep external for dependencies
• Use npm Trusted Publisher for releases
