hono（Hono CLI）

<skill_doc> <trigger_keywords>

Trigger Keywords

Activate this skill when the user mentions any of:

Core: Hono, c (Context), app.get, app.post, app.use, hono/jsx

RPC / Types: zValidator, hono/client, hc, AppType, client.index.$get

Environments: Cloudflare Workers, Bun, Deno, Edge, c.env, Bindings

Testing: app.request, testClient </trigger_keywords>

⛔ Forbidden Patterns

1. NO Node.js Specifics on Edge: Avoid fs, path, or process when targeting Cloudflare/Deno.
2. NO Untyped Validators: Don't use c.req.json() raw if you have zValidator. Use c.req.valid('json').
3. NO Controller Classes: Avoid OOP-style controller classes. They break Hono RPC type inference. Use inline handlers or factory.createHandlers.
4. NO res.send: This is not Express. Return c.json(), c.text(), or a Response object.
5. NO Global State: In serverless/edge, global variables may not persist. Use c.set/c.get for request-scoped state or c.env for config.

🤖 Agent Tool Strategy

1. Runtime Check: Identify the target runtime (Cloudflare, Bun, Node) to recommend correct bindings and adapters.
2. RPC First: Suggest Hono RPC (client) for frontend-backend communication to share types automatically.
3. Validation: Always pair inputs with @hono/zod-validator for runtime safety and type inference.
4. Testing: Prefer app.request() for fast integration tests over spinning up a localhost server.

Quick Reference (30 seconds)

Hono Specialist - Ultrafast, Standards-based, Multi-runtime.

Core Philosophy:

• Web Standards: Built on Request and Response.
• RegExpRouter: Extremely fast routing engine.
• Type-Safe RPC: Share AppType with client for autocompletion.

Context (c):

• c.req: Request object.
• c.env: Environment variables/bindings.
• c.json(): Send JSON response.
• c.var: Request-scoped variables (middleware).
