Question 1

How to generate React Query hooks with Telescope?

Accepted Answer

Enable the reactQuery option in your telescope-config.json, specify include patterns for protos or packages, and run the transpile command. This automatically creates hooks that integrate with @tanstack/react-query for type-safe data fetching.

Question 2

Telescope vs manually writing TypeScript for Cosmos SDK?

Accepted Answer

Telescope automates type-safe client generation from protobufs, saving significant time and reducing errors, while manual coding offers more control but is prone to inconsistencies and requires ongoing maintenance. For Cosmos projects, Telescope is more efficient for consistent type definitions.

Question 3

What are the main dependencies needed for Telescope?

Accepted Answer

Telescope requires TypeScript, CosmJS or InterchainJS libraries for signing and clients, and access to Cosmos SDK protobuf files. The README lists specific dependencies, and missing ones can cause build failures, so careful installation is necessary.

Question 4

Can Telescope be used with Vue.js applications?

Accepted Answer

Yes, Telescope supports Vue through options like vueQuery for composables and Pinia for stores. Configure these in the settings to generate Vue-specific code that integrates seamlessly with Vue 3 projects.

Question 5

How to troubleshoot Telescope code generation errors?

Accepted Answer

Check your protobuf definitions for correctness, ensure all dependencies are installed, and set the logLevel option to debug for detailed output. Common issues include missing protobuf files or configuration mismatches, which the logs can help identify.

Question 6

What is MCP server generation in Telescope?

Accepted Answer

MCP server generation creates Model Context Protocol servers alongside TypeScript clients, enabling AI agents to interact with blockchain data. It includes function generators and examples, but requires additional setup and is only available in the updated @hyperweb/telescope package.

Question 7

Is Telescope suitable for production use?

Accepted Answer

Yes, it's used by production projects like osmojs and injectivejs, but due to potential breaking changes (e.g., version 2.0), thorough testing and version pinning are recommended. The active development and community adoption support its reliability.
