 - [`ArrayIndices`](source/array-indices.d.ts) - Provides valid indices for a constant array or tuple.
 - [`ArrayValues`](source/array-values.d.ts) - Provides all values for a constant array or tuple.
 - [`ArraySplice`](source/array-splice.d.ts) - Creates a new array type by adding or removing elements at a specified index range in the original array.
+- [`ArrayTail`](source/array-tail.d.ts) - Extracts the type of an array or tuple minus the first element.
 - [`SetFieldType`](source/set-field-type.d.ts) - Create a type that changes the type of the given keys.
 - [`Paths`](source/paths.d.ts) - Generate a union of all possible paths to properties in the given object.
 - [`SharedUnionFieldsDeep`](source/shared-union-fields-deep.d.ts) - Create a type with shared fields from a union of object types, deeply traversing nested structures.
