• I have read the FAQ and my problem is not listed.

My proposal is suitable for this project

• My proposal specifically checks TypeScript syntax, or it proposes a check that requires type information to be accurate.
• My proposal is not a "formatting rule"; meaning it does not just enforce how code is formatted (whitespace, brace placement, etc).
• I believe my proposal would be useful to the broader TypeScript community (meaning it is not a niche proposal).

Description

Similar to restrict-template-expressions, the new rule restrict-constructor-expressions restrict the types of expressions passed to constructors such as Number() and String() to a subset which result in non-surprising return values

TypeScript types for constructors have a permissive any type for the parameters:

Fail Cases

Number({stdout: '123'}) // NaN
Number(['2']) // 2
String({result: 123}) // '[object Object]'

// I'm guessing there are many more...

Pass Cases

Number({stdout: '123'}.stdout) // 123
Number(['2'][0]) // 2
String({result: 123}.result) // '123'
