Import Error Resolution Skill

Purpose

This skill resolves import/export errors in TypeScript/JavaScript modules systematically.

When to Use

• •When encountering "Export X doesn't exist in target module" errors
• •When facing "Module has no exported member" errors
• •When dealing with circular dependency issues
• •When mixing default and named exports causes issues

Approach

1. •Analyze the Error: Identify the specific import/export issue
2. •Trace the Module Chain: Follow import paths to identify where the issue originates
3. •Check Export Definitions: Verify that the requested export exists in the source module
4. •Verify Import Syntax: Ensure import statements match export patterns
5. •Resolve Type vs Value Exports: Separate type-only imports when needed
6. •Fix Circular Dependencies: Restructure imports to break cycles
7. •Test Resolution: Verify the fix works

Process

The skill will:

• •Read the source file where the export is expected
• •Identify missing or incorrectly defined exports
• •Fix export definitions to match import requirements
• •Update import statements to match export patterns
• •Separate types and runtime code when needed
• •Create intermediate index files if necessary

Success Criteria

• •Import errors are resolved
• •All exports are properly accessible
• •No circular dependencies remain
• •Type and value exports are correctly separated
