inngest-middleware
Use when adding cross-cutting concerns to durable functions — structured logging or tracing across all functions, error tracking with Sentry, payload encryption for sensitive data, dependency injection of clients (DB, Stripe, etc.) into function handlers, custom telemetry, or behavior that should apply uniformly across many functions. Covers Inngest middleware lifecycle, creating custom middleware, dependencyInjectionMiddleware, @inngest/middleware-encryption, @inngest/middleware-sentry, and custom middleware patterns.

- inngest-durable-functionsinngestUse when building functions that must survive process crashes, retry automatically on failure, run on a schedule, react to events, or maintain state across infrastructure failures — e.g., webhook handlers that drop events, flaky cron jobs, background jobs that fail mid-execution, or workflows that need to resume where they left off. Covers Inngest function configuration, triggers (events, cron, invoke), step execution and memoization, idempotency, cancellation, error handling, retries, logging, and observability.3,600 installs on skills.sh0
- inngest-eventsinngestUse when designing event-driven workflows, decoupling services, implementing fan-out patterns (one trigger, many downstream handlers), implementing idempotent event handling with IDs (24-hour dedupe window), or handling at-least-once delivery from external sources like Stripe webhooks. Covers Inngest event schema, payload format, naming conventions, IDs for idempotency, the ts param, fan-out patterns, and system events like inngest/function.failed.3,600 installs on skills.sh0
- inngest-stepsinngestUse when implementing delays that must survive process restarts (e.g., 24-hour cart abandonment, scheduled follow-ups), waiting for human approval or external events with timeouts (review gates, webhook callbacks, async API completion), polling external services without losing state on crashes, calling other functions and awaiting their results, memoizing expensive operations so they don't re-run on retry, or running async work in parallel inside a workflow. Covers Inngest step methods: step.run, step.sleep, step.waitForEvent, step.waitForSignal, step.sendEvent, step.invoke, step.ai, plus patterns for loops and parallel execution.3,600 installs on skills.sh0
- inngest-setupinngestUse when adding durable execution to a TypeScript project — building retry-safe webhook handlers, background jobs that survive crashes, scheduled tasks, or long-running workflows that outlive a single request. Covers Inngest SDK installation, client config, environment variables, serve endpoints (Next.js, Express, Hono, Fastify), connect-as-worker mode, and the local dev server.3,500 installs on skills.sh0
