Based on SOC occupation classification
| name | microservices |
| description | Service boundaries, communication patterns, event sourcing, CQRS, and distributed tracing |
| metadata | {"author":"cosmicstack-labs","version":"1.0.0","category":"backend","tags":["microservices","architecture","distributed-systems","event-sourcing","cqrs"]} |
Design and operate microservice architectures.
| Pattern | Type | When |
|---|---|---|
| REST | Sync | Request-response, CRUD |
| gRPC | Sync (fast) | Internal, high throughput |
| Event | Async | Decoupled workflows |
| Message Queue | Async | Buffered, reliable delivery |
Service A → Event Bus → Service B
→ Service C
→ Service D
Benefits: eventual consistency, loose coupling, replayability.
❌ Shared database between services ❌ Sync chains (A → B → C → D blocking) ❌ Distributed monolith (microservices but deployed together) ❌ Absent monitoring ("it works in dev") ❌ Premature decomposition (start monolith, extract carefully)
Generate a 15-30 second scrolling video tour of any GitHub repository page with ElevenLabs AI narration and word-by-word subtitle sync. Captures a full-page mobile-viewport screenshot, scrolls top-to-bottom with GSAP, and burns synced subtitles onto the final MP4 using HyperFrames CLI.
Lightweight personal knowledge base — markdown + YAML frontmatter structured notes with full-text search and cross-referencing for AI agents
Automated daily tech briefing — multi-source collection → knowledge-base deduplication → AI summarization → TTS speech synthesis, generating MP3 audio briefings
Generate 1080x1920 Instagram Reels video promos for GitHub repositories using HyperFrames. 7-beat structure with fullscreen scrolling phone mockup, GSAP animations, dark GitHub theme, repo stats, ElevenLabs AI voiceover synced to scroll duration, and follow CTA. Depends on the website-to-hyperframes skill for HyperFrames composition patterns.
Design safe X/Twitter automation workflows for tweet search, reply reads, monitoring, posting, and agent-operated social media actions
Assess worker classification and compliance risk for temporary event staffing in the US and Canada. Use when a user asks about W-2 vs 1099 event workers, misclassification penalties, joint-employer liability, COI requirements, or wage/hour rules for event staff. Includes live state-by-state lookups via the TempGuru MCP server.
