Fixes #3983
Fixes #3984
Fixes #3985

Summary

Three fixes in the zod generator, all reachable from one spec shape (a prefixItems tuple property with min/max constraints, a default, and a description):

#3983 — tuple item consts were dropped. The classic parseProperty path emitted zod.tuple([zod.number().min(exampleRange0ItemMin), ...]) but never appended the item definitions' consts, so the generated code referenced undeclared constants. The tuple (and rest) handlers now append item consts exactly like the array handler already does.

#3984 — tuple defaults were hoisted into a widened const. default: [0, 100] on a tuple schema became export const xDefault = [0, 100]; — TypeScript widens that to number[], which is not assignable to the fixed-length [number, number] tuple zod.tuple() expects. Tuple defaults now stay inline so TS contextually types the literal as a tuple (same pattern the generator already uses for arrays of enums).

#3985/ was escaped in .describe() text. .describe() embeds the description in a plain string literal, where / and * carry no meaning; escaping them trips ESLint's no-useless-escape. Descriptions now use jsStringLiteralEscape (which leaves / alone) instead of jsStringEscape.

Generated output for the repro spec now compiles:

export const exampleRange0ItemMin = 0;
export const exampleRange1ItemMax = 100;
export const exampleApi = {
  range: zod.tuple([zod.number().min(exampleRange0ItemMin), zod.number().max(exampleRange1ItemMax)]).default([0, 100]).describe('A range represented by two numbers.'),
};

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes

    • Generated descriptions and metadata now avoid unnecessary escaping that could trigger linting errors.
    • Tuple defaults retain fixed-length typing in generated code.
    • Tuple item and rest constraints now generate valid references without undeclared constants.
  • Tests

    • Added coverage for tuple defaults and generated tuple constraint declarations.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The Zod generator now uses literal-safe escaping for descriptions and metadata. It keeps tuple defaults inline, emits tuple-related constants, and passes tuple-generation options in the correct order. Tests cover tuple defaults and per-item constraints.

Changes

Zod generator output

Layer / File(s) Summary
Description and metadata escaping
packages/zod/src/index.ts
.describe() and .meta() values now use jsStringLiteralEscape, so / and * are not unnecessarily escaped.
Tuple defaults and constraint constants
packages/zod/src/index.ts
Tuple defaults remain inline. Tuple-item and rest constants are emitted with appendConstsChunk. Tuple generation receives strict and isZodV4 in the correct order.
Tuple output regression tests
packages/zod/src/zod.test.ts
Tests verify inline tuple defaults and emitted per-item min/max constant references.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 51056

Tuple defaults are now emitted inline for direct tuple schemas and tuple constraints are declared, but reusable referenced tuple schemas with default siblings may still generate defaults that fail TypeScript tuple checks. Resolve this reusable-schema case before merging.

Pass strict and isZodV4 in the declared order.

generateZodValidationSchemaDefinition expects strict before isZodV4. This tuple-item call reverses them. For Zod v3 strict output, a prefix item can select Zod v4-only rendering and emit invalid Zod v3 code such as .stringFormat(...).

Use jsStringLiteralEscape for all generated description literals.

The reusable-reference path at Line 579 and the Zod v4 metadata path at Line 1758 still use jsStringEscape. Descriptions in these paths can still emit \/, so generated files fail no-useless-escape despite the main .describe() fix.

Proposed fix
-        `'${jsStringEscape(siblingSchema.description)}'`,
+        `'${jsStringLiteralEscape(siblingSchema.description)}'`,

-    parts.push(`description: '${jsStringEscape(args.description)}'`);

Handle tuple defaults on reusable $ref schemas.

When useReusableSchemas is enabled and the referenced component uses prefixItems for a fixed-length tuple, applyChainableSiblings still serializes a default sibling into an exported array constant. TypeScript can infer number[] or string[], which is not assignable to the tuple expected by .default(). Extend tuple-default handling to this $ref path, or resolve the referenced schema before hoisting the default.
