When should I use runtime checks (and which runtime checker should I use)?
In terms of which runtime checker I should use. The first tutorial I saw suggested 'Zod', doing a bit more searchign yielded other options such as 'runtypes'.
-
An almost religious case for Rust
Runtypes would probably be a better example.

'The best thing we can do today to JavaScript is to retire it’ Douglas Crockford
this has been solved by several packages, runtypes https://github.com/pelotom/runtypes being my favorite

How to force a type when importing a JSON file?
I personally like https://github.com/pelotom/runtypes because it bundles your Schema Info and the corresponding Typescript types
- Why doesn’t TypeScript natively do any type checking
-
Create d.ts for API response
When I have to deal with data from API calls, I usually use a runtime typing library like Runtypes or Zod to check the responses at the boundary. These libraries can automatically give you TS types (using their static or infer utilities) to use throughout the rest of the project.
-
Typing for JSON Payloads
Also runtypes and (as mentioned below) zod.
-
How to check that an 'unknown' object has a specific key and that the key is a specific type?
Seconding the recommendation to use a library for this. runtypes and io-ts are two other alternatives.
-
Check types at the top level or in each function?
I wouldn't reinvent the wheel: https://github.com/pelotom/runtypes
