Zid can't be in a z.array

[pupeno]

The Zid type of the Zod helpers doesn't seem to implement whatever is necessary to be able to belong to a z.array.

The specific error I'm getting is:

lib/validation/competitions.ts:23:21 - error TS2345: Argument of type 'Zid<"genres">' is not assignable to parameter of type 'SomeType'.
  Property '_zod' is missing in type 'Zid<"genres">' but required in type 'SomeType'.

23   genreIds: z.array(zid("genres")),
                       ~~~~~~~~~~~~~

  node_modules/zod/v4/core/schemas.d.cts:86:5
    86     _zod: _$ZodTypeInternals;
           ~~~~
    '_zod' is declared here.

The problem was that I was using zod 4, and this library uses zod 3.

@pupeno I built a library based on convex-helpers that uses zod 4, I would love for you to check it out and provide feedback!

The API differs slightly from convex-helpers, but should be pretty quick to migrate:

@panzacoder I was thinking of doing something similar, so yeah, I'm interested in giving it a go.
