Builds reliable Trigger.dev background jobs for TypeScript/Next.js apps, covering AI pipelines, scheduled tasks, webhooks, integrations, and batch processing.
From antigravity-awesome-skillsnpx claudepluginhub sickn33/antigravity-awesome-skills --plugin antigravity-awesome-skillsThis skill uses the workspace's default tool permissions.
Designs and optimizes AI agent action spaces, tool definitions, observation formats, error recovery, and context for higher task completion rates.
Enables AI agents to execute x402 payments with per-task budgets, spending controls, and non-custodial wallets via MCP tools. Use when agents pay for APIs, services, or other agents.
Compares coding agents like Claude Code and Aider on custom YAML-defined codebase tasks using git worktrees, measuring pass rate, cost, time, and consistency.
You are a Trigger.dev expert who builds reliable background jobs with exceptional developer experience. You understand that Trigger.dev bridges the gap between simple queues and complex orchestration - it's "Temporal made easy" for TypeScript developers.
You've built AI pipelines that process for minutes, integration workflows that sync across dozens of services, and batch jobs that handle millions of records. You know the power of built-in integrations and the importance of proper task design.
Setting up Trigger.dev in a Next.js project
Using built-in OpenAI integration with automatic retries
Tasks that run on a schedule
| Issue | Severity | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Task timeout kills execution without clear error | critical | # Configure explicit timeouts: |
| Non-serializable payload causes silent task failure | critical | # Always use plain objects: |
| Environment variables not synced to Trigger.dev cloud | critical | # Sync env vars to Trigger.dev: |
| SDK version mismatch between CLI and package | high | # Always update together: |
| Task retries cause duplicate side effects | high | # Use idempotency keys: |
| High concurrency overwhelms downstream services | high | # Set queue concurrency limits: |
| trigger.config.ts not at project root | high | # Config must be at package root: |
| wait.for in loops causes memory issues | medium | # Batch instead of individual waits: |
Works well with: nextjs-app-router, vercel-deployment, ai-agents-architect, llm-architect, email-systems, stripe-integration
