Individual skill

adversarial-tanstack

Use this skill to gate TanStack Start plus TypeScript web-app changes with a pass/fail adversarial review — a single blind reviewer subagent judges a diff or file set against 22 decidable rules covering client/server boundary leaks, server-function and server-route usage, auth and security, SSR data loading, boundary type safety, and compiler config. Trigger it before merging TanStack Start work, when asked to gate, adversarially review, or pass/fail a Start or TanStack codebase, or as a final check on agent-authored Start features. It renders verdicts only and never fixes the work; for teaching-style review feedback use a distillation skill instead.

# Adversarial TanStack Gate

A merge gate for TanStack Start + TypeScript web-app changes — a pass/fail gate: a single blind reviewer subagent judges the work against this gate's rules with an adversarial mandate, and the work passes only when every rule is PASS or N/A. This skill renders verdicts; it never fixes the work.

Rules are pinned to `@tanstack/react-start` 1.168+ (v1 RC, July 2026) and TypeScript 5.8–6.x semantics.

## When to Apply

- A TanStack Start feature, route, or server function is about to merge and needs an objective PASS/FAIL, not advisory feedback.
- An agent (Claude, Codex) authored Start app code and you want an independent check its author bias cannot rubber-stamp.
- A diff touches the client/server boundary — env vars, loaders, server functions, auth — where a wrong PASS ships secrets or unauthorized data access.
- Auditing an existing Start codebase file set against the current v1 RC API surface (stale `.inputValidator()`, removed `createServerFileRoute`).

Do not apply to non-Start React apps (most `serverfn`/`boundary`/`ssr` rules will return N/A and the gate degenerates to a TypeScript check) or when the user wants explanations and refactors rather than a verdict.
