Configuration: Declaration files (.d.ts) generation is disabled

[evmparser]

Problem

The TypeScript configuration in tsconfig.json has "declaration": false, which prevents the generation of .d.ts type definition files.

File: tsconfig.json (line 10)

Impact

This configuration makes the SDK difficult to use for TypeScript developers:

• No IntelliSense/Autocomplete: IDEs cannot provide code completion or suggestions when using the SDK
• No Type Checking: Consumers of the SDK get no compile-time type safety
• Poor Developer Experience: Developers must guess the API structure without type hints
• Defeats the Purpose of TypeScript: The SDK is written in TypeScript, but consumers cannot benefit from it

This is a critical issue for any TypeScript library intended to be consumed by other TypeScript projects.

Why This Is Critical

For a cryptography SDK like relayer-sdk:

• Type safety is crucial to prevent security mistakes
• Complex cryptographic APIs require clear type documentation
• Developers need strong IDE support to use the SDK correctly
• Without .d.ts files, the SDK is essentially unusable in TypeScript projects

Suggested Fix

Enable declaration file generation in tsconfig.json:

{
  "compilerOptions": {
    "declaration": true,  // Generate .d.ts files
    "declarationMap": true,  // Optional: generate source maps for declarations
    // ... rest of config
  }
}

Benefits:

• ✅ Full IDE support with autocomplete and IntelliSense
• ✅ Type-safe usage in TypeScript projects
• ✅ Better documentation through type definitions
• ✅ Reduced errors when using the SDK
• ✅ Industry standard for TypeScript libraries

Context

This issue was identified as part of a comprehensive configuration audit of the relayer-sdk.
