# Advanced Static Typing
Claro v1.18.26 adds the first advanced static-typing foundation: typed containers checked by `claro typecheck`.
## Typed lists
```claro
SET names AS LIST OF TEXT TO LIST
ADD "Ada" TO names
ADD "Grace" TO names
```
The type checker now rejects wrong item types:
```claro
SET names AS LIST OF TEXT TO LIST
ADD 123 TO names
```
Output:
```text
Type mismatch for list names: expected TEXT item, but this value looks like NUMBER.
```
## Typed maps
```claro
SET scores AS MAP OF NUMBER TO MAP
PUT scores KEY "math" VALUE 98
```
The type checker rejects wrong value types:
```claro
SET scores AS MAP OF NUMBER TO MAP
PUT scores KEY "oops" VALUE "high"
```
Output:
```text
Type mismatch for map scores: expected NUMBER value, but this value looks like TEXT.
```
## Status
This is currently a static checker feature. It improves `claro typecheck` and validation confidence. Runtime enforcement for every container mutation can be added later after the syntax is classroom-tested.
