realtime-communication

Build realtime features that survive production — WebSockets vs SSE vs polling trade-offs, connection lifecycle, reconnect with backoff and event resume, heartbeats, presence, horizontal fan-out via pub/sub, backpressure, and graceful degradation when connections drop.

Overview

Realtime is a distributed-systems problem wearing a UI feature's clothes: every connection will drop (mobile handoff, laptop lid, proxy idle timeout), so the architecture is defined by how you resume, not how you connect. This skill covers transport choice, the connection lifecycle, and scaling beyond one server. Deep detail in references/; a resilient client and server fan-out wiring in examples/

Your own Claude Code — no API keys
api-paginationImplement correct, fast API pagination — cursor vs offset trade-offs, opaque cursor encoding, stable sort keys, page-size limits, total-count costs, and consumer-side iteration that survives inserts, deletes, and retries. With runnable cursor checks.app-store-optimizationHow to optimize an app-store listing (ASO) for discovery and conversion — title, subtitle, keywords, screenshots, icon, ratings, and the metadata that drives installs. A deep reference with worked Apple and Google listings and a runnable listing linter.audit-loggingDesign tamper-evident audit logs that satisfy security and compliance — what to record (who/what/when/where/outcome), what to never log (secrets/PII), structured immutable events, hash-chaining for tamper-evidence, retention, and access control. A deep reference with runnable validation.background-jobsDesign background job systems that don't lose or double work — enqueue-after-commit, retry policies with jitter, idempotent handlers, visibility timeouts, priority lanes, scheduled and recurring jobs, worker scaling, and observability for async work. With a runnable retry-policy check.backup-and-recoveryDesign and operate a tested backup and disaster-recovery strategy — the 3-2-1 rule, RPO/RTO targets, full vs incremental vs differential, point-in-time recovery, encryption, offsite/immutable copies, retention, and the restore drills that prove a backup actually works.c4-diagrammingDocument software architecture with the C4 model (Context, Container, Component, Code) as text-based diagrams in version control. Covers the four abstraction levels, notation discipline, when to draw each level (and when to stop), supplementary diagrams, and Mermaid/Structurizr tooling.
