Automatically Adding Optional Chaining Operator via Babel Plugin to Prevent TypeError

An automatically applied Babel plugin scans JavaScript AST nodes and rewrites risky property accesses and logical‑AND chains into optional‑chaining expressions, letting developers prevent TypeError crashes without modifying source code, while offering include/exclude filters, optional short‑circuit optimization, and compatibility with older browsers via downstream transforms.
