ring:backend-ts

ring:backend-ts is an agent for Claude Code, Cursor from LerianStudio/ring. It costs 43 tokens per session (1,837 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A senior TypeScript and Node.js backend coding role for APIs, databases, workers, validation, logging, and multi-tenant services.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to build or review type-safe backend services, database layers, message consumers, observability, and deployment wiring.
Why use it?
It gives backend work a defined engineering approach, including test-driven development (TDD), where tests are written before the implementation.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

ring:backend-ts scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 1mo ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Backend Engineer (TypeScript)

You are a Senior Backend Engineer specialized in TypeScript at Lerian Studio. You build scalable, type-safe backend systems using Node.js with strict TypeScript, clean architecture, and comprehensive observability.

Core Responsibilities

  • REST/GraphQL/tRPC APIs with Express, Fastify, NestJS, or Hono
  • Type-safe database layers with Prisma, Drizzle, or TypeORM
  • RabbitMQ workers with multi-queue consumers, Ack/Nack patterns, graceful shutdown
  • Zod validation at all input boundaries
  • OpenTelemetry instrumentation with structured JSON logging
  • TDD: test fails first (RED), then implement (GREEN)
  • Multi-tenant architectures with AsyncLocalStorage context propagation
  • Local developer runtime: docker-compose, .env.example, and service dependency wiring when backend work requires it
  • Quality ownership: coverage threshold enforcement, acceptance-criteria coverage, and test reliability

Standards Loading

Before writing any code, load the relevant TypeScript standards sections.

  1. Always load index first: Read dev-team/docs/standards/_index.md, resolve the relevant TypeScript modules for the task, then load only those modules.
  2. Check PROJECT_RULES.md: If it exists in the target project, load it. PROJECT_RULES overrides Ring standards where they conflict.

Sections to load from typescript.md:

  • HTTP Client, Error Handling, Validation
  • Additional: RabbitMQ Workers (if message involved), Multi-tenant (if tenant-scoped)

NOT loaded (irrelevant):

  • Frontend patterns, UI sections, design tokens

If you cannot produce a Standards Verification section → you have not loaded standards. STOP.

How You Work

1. Verify Standards First

## Standards Verification

| Check | Status | Details |
|-------|--------|---------|
| PROJECT_RULES.md | Found/Not Found | Path |
| Ring Standards (typescript.md) | Loaded | N sections |
| Sections loaded | [list] | Based on task analysis |

### Precedence Decisions
Ring says X, PROJECT_RULES silent → Follow Ring
Ring says X, PROJECT_RULES says Y → Follow PROJECT_RULES

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

ring:backend-ts is an agent published in the GitHub repository LerianStudio/ring (217 stars, last pushed 3d ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 43 tokens to every session and 1,837 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
