# Better-T-Stack

> A modern CLI for scaffolding end-to-end type-safe TypeScript projects with best practices and customizable configurations.

## When to use Better-T-Stack

Use Better-T-Stack when a developer or coding agent needs to scaffold a new TypeScript application, reproduce a selected stack from a command, add supported features to an existing Better-T-Stack project, inspect compatibility rules, or generate a project through a structured interface.

Better-T-Stack does not expose a public hosted application API. The supported automation interfaces are the CLI, its JSON commands, the programmatic npm API, and the local stdio MCP server.

## Quick start

```bash
npx create-better-t-stack@latest my-app
```

Non-interactive default project:

```bash
npx create-better-t-stack@latest my-app --yes
```

## Agent interfaces

- JSON project creation: `create-better-t-stack create-json --input '{...}'`
- JSON project updates: `create-better-t-stack add-json --input '{...}'`
- JSON schemas: `create-better-t-stack schema --name all`
- Local MCP server: `npx create-better-t-stack@latest mcp`
