triggerdotdev

Analyze Trigger.dev tasks, schedules, and runs for cost optimization opportunities. Use when asked to reduce spend, optimize costs, audit usage, right-size machines, or review task efficiency. Requires Trigger.dev MCP tools for run analysis.

AI agent patterns with Trigger.dev - orchestration, parallelization, routing, evaluator-optimizer, and human-in-the-loop. Use when building LLM-powered tasks that need parallel workers, approval gates, tool calling, or multi-step agent workflows.

Configure Trigger.dev projects with trigger.config.ts. Use when setting up build extensions for Prisma, Playwright, FFmpeg, Python, or customizing deployment settings.

Subscribe to Trigger.dev task runs in real-time from frontend and backend. Use when building progress indicators, live dashboards, streaming AI/LLM responses, or React components that display task status.

Set up Trigger.dev in your project. Use when adding Trigger.dev for the first time, creating trigger.config.ts, or initializing the trigger directory.

Build AI agents, workflows and durable background tasks with Trigger.dev. Use when creating tasks, triggering jobs, handling retries, scheduling cron jobs, or implementing queues and concurrency control.

Say hello in different styles. Use when the user asks for a greeting or a friendly message.

Compute and format dates/times in arbitrary timezones using a small set of bundled bash scripts. Use when the user asks about "what time is it", "current time in <city>", date math, or timezone conversions.

Use when adding, modifying, or debugging OTel span timeline events in the trace view. Covers event structure, ClickHouse storage constraints, rendering in SpanTimeline component, admin visibility, and the step-by-step process for adding new events.

Use this skill when writing, designing, or optimizing Trigger.dev background tasks and workflows. This includes creating reliable async tasks, implementing AI workflows, setting up scheduled jobs, structuring complex task hierarchies with subtasks, configuring build extensions for tools like ffmpeg or Puppeteer/Playwright, and handling task schemas with Zod validation.

Initialize agentcrumbs in a repository. Discover systems, services, and modules to build a namespace catalog, then write the catalog to CLAUDE.md or AGENTS.md. Activate when setting up agentcrumbs in a new project, when asked to "init crumbs", "set up debug tracing", "add agentcrumbs", or when the project has agentcrumbs as a dependency but no namespace catalog in its agent config files.

Debug mode for AI coding agents. Drop structured traces inline while writing code, query them when something breaks, strip before merge. Covers the core workflow: trail, crumb, markers, collector, query, strip. Activate when using agentcrumbs, adding debug tracing, or when an agent needs to understand runtime behavior.
