pipe & flow Quick Reference
pipe - Transform a Value
import { pipe } from 'fp-ts/function'
// pipe(startValue, fn1, fn2, fn3)
// = fn3(fn2(fn1(startValue)))
const result = pipe(
' hello world ',
s => s.trim(),
s => s.toUpperCase(),
s => s.split(' ')
)
// ['HELLO', 'WORLD']
flow - Create Reusable Pipeline
import { flow } from 'fp-ts/function'
// flow(fn1, fn2, fn3) returns a new function
const process = flow(
(s: string) => s.trim(),
s => s.toUpperCase(),
s => s.split(' ')
)
process(' hello world ') // ['HELLO', 'WORLD']
process(' foo bar ') // ['FOO', 'BAR']
When to Use
| Use | When |
|---|---|
pipe |
Transform a specific value now |
flow |
Create reusable transformation |
With fp-ts Types
import * as O from 'fp-ts/Option'
import * as A from 'fp-ts/Array'
// Option chain
pipe(
O.fromNullable(user),
O.map(u => u.email),
O.getOrElse(() => 'no email')
)
// Array chain
pipe(
users,
A.filter(u => u.active),
A.map(u => u.name)
)
Common Pattern
// Data last enables partial application
const getActiveNames = flow(
A.filter((u: User) => u.active),
A.map(u => u.name)
)
// Reuse anywhere
getActiveNames(users1)
getActiveNames(users2)

Memory-First Protocol
Retrieve prior design decisions (color palettes, typography, spacing scales) to maintain visual consistency across sessions. Cache generated design tokens.
# Check for prior frontend/design context before starting
python3 execution/memory_manager.py auto --query "design system decisions and component patterns for Fp Pipe Ref"
Storing Results
After completing work, store frontend/design decisions for future sessions:
python3 execution/memory_manager.py store \
--content "Design system: adopted 8px grid, Inter font family, HSL color tokens with dark mode support" \
--type decision --project <project> \
--tags fp-pipe-ref frontend
Multi-Agent Collaboration
Share design decisions with backend agents (API contract changes) and QA agents (visual regression baselines).
python3 execution/cross_agent_context.py store \
--agent "<your-agent>" \
--action "Implemented UI components — new design system with accessibility compliance (WCAG 2.1 AA)" \
--project <project>
Design Memory Persistence
Store design system tokens and component decisions in Qdrant so any agent on any platform (Claude, Gemini, Cursor) can retrieve and apply consistent styling.
