knitwork-x provides programmatic code generation for JavaScript and TypeScript. It is forked from knitwork and adds comprehensive TypeScript helpers: ESM (import/export), strings, variables, classes, interfaces, functions, types, control flow (if/try/loop/switch), and serialization (object/array/map/set). All

gen*

functions return strings suitable for splicing into source; they are pure and do not mutate inputs.

Use this skill when an agent needs to generate code strings (e.g. for codegen tools, plugins, or dynamic module output).

Key Points

Return type: Every
```
gen*
```
function returns a
```
string
```
(code fragment).
Options: Most accept an optional
```
options
```
object (e.g.
```
export
```
,
```
singleQuotes
```
,
```
indent
```
); default to
```
{}
```
.
Indent: When supported, pass
```
indent
```
as the last parameter; use
```
indent + "  "
```
for nested blocks.
Strings: Use
```
genString(input, options)
```
for quoted/escaped output so
```
singleQuotes
```
is respected.
Composing: Combine
```
gen*
```
outputs (e.g.
```
genClass(..., [genConstructor(...)])
```
) to build larger snippets.
