+## MyPy Type Checking Support
+
+The `EIPChecklist` classes are made callable through a companion `.pyi` stub file that provides proper type hints for mypy. This allows you to use both decorator patterns without type checking errors:

+### Regenerating Type Stubs
+
+If you modify the `EIPChecklist` class structure in `src/ethereum_test_checklists/eip_checklist.py`, you need to regenerate the type stub file:
+
+```bash
+# Generate the stub file (for maintainers):
+uv run generate_checklist_stubs
+
+# Preview what would be generated without writing the file
+uv run generate_checklist_stubs --dry-run
+
+# Generate to a custom location
+uv run generate_checklist_stubs --output path/to/custom/stubs.pyi
+```
+
+The generated stub file (`eip_checklist.pyi`) should be committed to the repository to ensure proper type checking for all developers.

 ## Best Practices
 
 1. **Start with the checklist**: Review the checklist template before writing tests to ensure comprehensive coverage
-2. **Use descriptive test names**: The test name will appear in the checklist, so make it clear what the test covers
-3. **Mark items as you go**: Add `eip_checklist` markers while writing tests, not as an afterthought
-4. **Document external coverage**: If items are covered by external tools/tests, document this in `eip_checklist_external_coverage.txt`
-5. **Be explicit about N/A items**: Document why items are not applicable in `eip_checklist_not_applicable.txt`
