Trigger Tasks
by triggerdotdeve0f9f87153d1No license33 starsListed Oct 8, 2026Updated Oct 8, 2026Repository updated 5 weeks ago
Covers writing backend Trigger.dev tasks with @trigger.dev/sdk: defining task() and schemaTask(), the run function and its ctx, retries, waits, queues and concurrency, idempotency keys, run metadata, logging, triggering other tasks (and the Result shape), scheduled/cron tasks, and the essentials of trigger.config.ts. Load this whenever you are authoring or editing code inside a /trigger directory, defining a task, or writing backend code that triggers tasks. Realtime/React hooks and AI chat are covered by separate skills.

Ask your agent to install it
Paste this prompt into Claude Code, Codex, Cursor or another agent that can run commands — or into SourceWeft chat. The agent reads this skill's install guide, shows you its source, license and scripts, and installs it with the SourceWeft CLI once you agree.
Read https://sourceweft.com/skills/gh-triggerdotdev-skills-trigger-tasks/install.md and install the skill it describes. Before installing, show me its source, license and whether it ships scripts, and wait for my OK. Ask me before changing anything else on my machine.Install it yourself from a terminal
For Claude Code, Codex, Cursor and other local agents. The SourceWeft CLI fetches the skill from its source repository at the commit scanned here, and verifies every file against the hashes recorded when the skill was scanned. If anything differs, nothing is written.
npx @sourceweft/cli skills install gh-triggerdotdev-skills-trigger-tasksAdd --agent claude-code, codex, cursor or universal to choose which agent gets it (Claude Code by default).
Upstream installer — not verified by SourceWeft
The open-source skills installer fetches the same pinned commit, but does not check the files against the hashes SourceWeft recorded.

Trigger Realtime
triggerdotdev
Trigger.dev client/frontend surface: subscribe to runs in realtime (runs.subscribeToRun and the @trigger.dev/react-hooks hook useRealtimeRun), consume metadata and AI/text streams in React (useRealtimeStream), trigger tasks from the browser (useTaskTrigger, useRealtimeTaskTrigger), and mint scoped frontend credentials with auth.createPublicToken / auth.createTriggerPublicToken. Load when wiring a frontend (React/Next.js/Remix) or backend-for-frontend to show live run progress, status badges, token streams, trigger buttons, or wait-token approval UIs. NOT for writing the backend task itself (streams.define / metadata.set is trigger-tasks territory); this is the consumer side.
