Quick reference

Validators (CRITICAL)

  • validators-hex - Use validHex() for hex string validation
  • validators-address - Validate Ethereum addresses

Filters (HIGH)

  • filters-message-types - Filter by message type (SDK 2.0+: use direct imports isText, isReaction, isReply, etc. from @xmtp/agent-sdk; keep filter.fromSelf, filter.hasDefinedContent)
  • filters-sender - Filter out self-messages
  • filters-content - Check for defined content

Type Guards (HIGH)

  • guards-codec - Use usesCodec() instead of type assertions
  • guards-content-type - Use filter helpers for type safety
