Actually the problem is in this code that is, If I put the id directly in "terms" of any post type like; [arts-list 10], then this type of post which contains this id displays the posts on the frontend but if I put something else like terms => 'type' and then I try to display a specific type posts like; [arts-list type=10], no post displays on the frontend, actually in terms I think I have to pass parameter of shortcode but how I do, I can't debug this, that's why I asked you. I hope now you understand what is my problem.

function diwp_create_shortcode_arts_post_type(){
    
    $atts = shortcode_atts( array(
        'type' => ' ',
    ), $atts );
 
    $args = array(
                    'post_type'      => 'arts',

I think I have to pass parameter of shortcode, but how I do

Yes, that's correct, and you already are passing the parameter to your shortcode when you do [arts-list type=10] — although you should enclose the parameter value in quotes, i.e. type="10".

But the $atts in your shortcode function is not defined before the shortcode_atts() is called, so the function should be defined as follows:

function diwp_create_shortcode_arts_post_type( $atts )

And because the function is already parsing the parameters which are stored in the $atts array, then you just need to use the parameters in your tax_query (i.e. taxonomy query) clause:

'tax_query' => array(
    array(
        'taxonomy' => 'Types',
        'field'    => 'term_id',
        'terms'    =>  wp_parse_id_list( $atts['type'] ),
    ),
),

Note: In the above example, I used wp_parse_id_list() so that we can pass a list of term IDs, e.g. [arts-list type="10,11,12"]. But more importantly, make sure the IDs point to valid terms in the Types taxonomy.
