Overview

Implements the TypeScript layer inside the React-Native SDK repo (React-Native) for a MoEngage feature whose Android bridge already exists (created by react-native-android-bridge-implementation).

Prerequisite chain:

1. plugin-base-feature-implementation — Android plugin-base module ✅
2. react-native-android-bridge-implementation — Android Kotlin bridge ✅
3. react-native-ts-implementation ← you are here

Architecture standard: Follow the Cards module pattern exactly for all TypeScript structure and naming conventions.

Example files: Templates are in examples/typescript/ adjacent to this SKILL.md. Read each template before generating the corresponding file.

Phase 0 — Clarify Inputs

0.1 Extract ticket ID

Scan the user's full command for MOEN-\d+ → ticketId. If not found in the command or parameters, ask before proceeding.

---

Phase 1 — Parse Inputs & Derive All Identifiers

1.1 Extract from contract_branch

Strip everything up to and including the first / or _MOEN-XXXXX_ prefix:

• feature/experience_contracts → contractSuffix = experience_contracts
• MOEN-44072_jwt_contract → contractSuffix = jwt_contract

1.2 Identifiers table

Identifier	Example	Rule
ticketId	MOEN-44072	MOEN-\d+ from raw command or parameter
contractSuffix	jwt_contract	branch name after first / or _MOEN-XXXXX_
featureName	jwt	lowercase slug from feature_description
featureNameCamel	Jwt	PascalCase of featureName
featureNameUpper	JWT	UPPER_SNAKE of featureName
contractDir	authentication	subdirectory found in contracts json/ after checkout
rnSdkDir	sdk/core	see rule below
rnPackage	com.moengage.react.jwt	com.moengage.react.<featureName>
branchName	feature/MOEN-44072-jwt_contract	feature/<ticketId>-<contractSuffix>

1.3 Resolve rnSdkDir

Scan feature_description for a framework keyword and map to the existing SDK module directory:

Keyword in feature_description	rnSdkDir
core, analytics, inapps, or messaging	sdk/core
cards	sdk/cards
geofence	sdk/geofence
inbox	sdk/inbox
personalize	sdk/personalize
none of the above	ask the user which SDK module to add the feature to

Examples:

• "JWT authentication parity from core" → sdk/core
• "get clicked cards count" → sdk/cards
• "start geofence monitoring" → sdk/geofence

---

Phase 2 — Read Contracts

cd ../mobile-sdk-contracts
git fetch
git stash
git checkout <contract_branch>

1. List json/hybridToNative/ to identify contractDir
   • If no matching directory → list available dirs and ask the user
2. For each .json in json/hybridToNative/<contractDir>/:
   • Filename (without .json) = method name (camelCase)
   • File content = input payload shape
3. For each .json in json/nativeToHybrid/<contractDir>/:
   • File content = event/response payload shape
4. Read all .proto files in protos/<contractDir>/ for model field names and types

Method classification

Condition	TypeScript return	NativeSpec type	Notes
hybridToNative only	void	(payload: string) => void	Calls native method directly
both hybridToNative + nativeToHybrid	ambiguous — ask user	depends	see below
nativeToHybrid only	callback/listener	event listener in Handler	Uses addListener / removeListeners

When both hybridToNative and nativeToHybrid exist, ask the user before proceeding:

"Both hybridToNative and nativeToHybrid contracts exist for <methodName>. Should this be implemented as:

1. Promise — JS calls native, native returns data via resolve/reject
2. Event — JS triggers the flow, but native pushes the response asynchronously via an event emitter"

User answer	TypeScript return	NativeSpec type	Notes
Promise	Promise<ModelType>	(payload: string) => Promise<Object>	PayloadParser converts response
Event	void call + callback/listener	(payload: string) => void + addListener / removeListeners	PayloadBuilder for trigger, JsonToModelMapper for event

Build a complete method table before writing any code.

Phase 3 — TypeScript Implementation

3.1 Check out the branch created by react-native-android-bridge-implementation

cd React-Native
git fetch
git checkout feature/<ticketId>-<contractSuffix>

If the branch does not exist, create it:

git checkout -b feature/<ticketId>-<contractSuffix>

3.2 Check if TypeScript files already exist

ls <rnSdkDir>/src/ 2>/dev/null

• Not found → scaffold full TS layer (Steps 3.3–3.12)
• Found → read existing files first, add only the missing methods/models

3.3 Constants.ts

→ See examples/typescript/Constants.ts Generate at: <rnSdkDir>/src/internal/Constants.ts

Contains:

• One string constant per method name (must exactly match the Android bridge constants)
• One string constant per event name (for nativeToHybrid events)

3.4 Model files

→ See examples/typescript/Model.ts Generate one file per logical proto entity at: <rnSdkDir>/src/model/<ModelName>.ts

Rules:

• Use TypeScript interface for data shapes (not class)
• Field names must match the contract JSON keys exactly
• Optional fields (nullable in proto) → field?: Type
• Nested objects → reference other model interfaces

3.5 Enum files

→ See examples/typescript/Enum.ts Generate one file per proto enum at: <rnSdkDir>/src/model/enums/<EnumName>.ts

Rules:

• Use const enum or enum following the Cards module pattern
• Enum values must exactly match the proto enum value names (e.g. TIME_CONSTRAINT_FAILURE)

3.6 NativeSpec (TurboModule spec)

→ See examples/typescript/NativeSpec.ts Generate at: <rnSdkDir>/src/NativeMoEngage<featureNameCamel>.ts

Rules:

• Extends TurboModule from react-native/Libraries/TurboModule/RCTExport
• Every fire-and-forget method: methodName(payload: string): void
• Every promise method: methodName(payload: string): Promise<Object>
• Every event source: addListener(eventName: string): void + removeListeners(count: number): void
• The spec name must match codegenConfig.name in package.json

3.7 PayloadBuilder.ts

→ See examples/typescript/PayloadBuilder.ts Generate at: <rnSdkDir>/src/internal/utils/PayloadBuilder.ts

One builder function per hybridToNative method:

• Accepts typed model parameters
• Returns a JSON string (using JSON.stringify)
• Includes accountMeta: { appId } wrapper matching the contract shape

3.8 PayloadParser.ts

→ See examples/typescript/PayloadParser.ts Generate at: <rnSdkDir>/src/internal/utils/PayloadParser.ts

One parser function per nativeToHybrid response payload (promise methods):

• Accepts the raw JSON object returned by the native promise
• Returns a typed model instance

3.9 JsonToModelMapper.ts

→ See examples/typescript/JsonToModelMapper.ts Generate at: <rnSdkDir>/src/internal/utils/JsonToModelMapper.ts

One mapper function per nativeToHybrid event payload:

• Accepts the raw event data object
• Returns a typed model instance
• Used in the Handler's event listener callbacks

3.10 Handler.ts

→ See examples/typescript/Handler.ts Generate at: <rnSdkDir>/src/internal/MoEngage<featureNameCamel>Handler.ts

Rules:

• Fire-and-forget methods: call NativeModule.methodName(PayloadBuilder.buildXxx(...))
• Promise methods: call native, then PayloadParser.parseXxx(result), return typed model
• Event methods: use NativeEventEmitter + addListener / removeListeners; call JsonToModelMapper.mapXxx(data) in the listener body
• Always null-check NativeModule before calling; throw descriptive error if null

3.11 PublicApi.ts

→ See examples/typescript/PublicApi.ts Generate at: <rnSdkDir>/src/<featureNameCamel>PublicApi.ts (or ReactMoEngage<featureNameCamel>.ts if that matches the Cards pattern)

Thin wrapper over the Handler. Re-exports every public method with JSDoc comments derived from the contract descriptions. This is what consumers of the npm package import.

3.12 index.ts

→ See examples/typescript/index.ts Generate at: <rnSdkDir>/src/index.ts

Re-exports everything the package exposes:

• The PublicApi object / functions
• All model interfaces
• All enums

3.13 package.json

Copy sdk/cards/package.json, then update:

• "name" → "react-native-moengage-<featureName>"
• "version" → "1.0.0"
• "description" → appropriate description
• "codegenConfig"."name" → "NativeMoEngage<featureNameCamel>Spec"
• "codegenConfig"."android"."javaPackageName" → "<rnPackage>"

3.14 Podspec (iOS shell — do not implement iOS logic)

Copy sdk/cards/ReactNativeMoEngageCards.podspec, rename to ReactNativeMoEngage<featureNameCamel>.podspec, update:

• s.name → "ReactNativeMoEngage<featureNameCamel>"
• s.description, s.summary — update feature name
• s.dependency "MoEngage-iOS-SDK/... — keep as-is or add // TODO: verify iOS SDK dependency

3.15 Commit

git add <rnSdkDir>/src/ <rnSdkDir>/package.json <rnSdkDir>/*.podspec
git commit -m "<ticketId>: Add React-Native TypeScript layer for <featureName>"

---

Phase 4 — Create Pull Request

If a PR already exists on feature/<ticketId>-<contractSuffix> (from the Android bridge step), push to the same branch and add a comment explaining what was added. Otherwise create a new PR.

git push -u origin feature/<ticketId>-<contractSuffix>

# Check if PR already exists:
gh pr list --head feature/<ticketId>-<contractSuffix> --json number,url

# If no existing PR:
gh pr create \
  --title "<ticketId>: Add React-Native TypeScript layer for <featureName>" \
  --base development \
  --body "$(cat <<'EOF'
## Summary
- Adds TypeScript TurboModule spec, models, enums, and Handler layer for <featureName>
- PayloadBuilder serializes TS models → JSON strings for native calls
- PayloadParser / JsonToModelMapper deserialize native responses / events → typed TS models
- PublicApi exports the consumer-facing API

Error Handling Rules

• contract_branch not found → stop and tell the user
• contractDir not found → list available dirs and ask
• Android bridge Constants.kt not found → warn and derive constants from contract file names directly
• rnSdkDir/src/ already exists → read existing files, add only missing items
• iOS SDK dependency name unknown → add // TODO: verify iOS SDK dependency in podspec and continue
• Push fails → report error and local branch name
