bullmq-docs is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from cookieMonsterDev/agents-skills. It costs 86 tokens per session (1,079 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A documentation guide for BullMQ, a Node.js library that runs background jobs through queues backed by Redis.

In plain words
What is it for?
It is for creating and operating queues and workers, scheduling and retrying jobs, handling limits and failures, monitoring work, and troubleshooting deployments.
Why use it?
It helps avoid applying outdated Bull or generic Redis advice to BullMQ projects.

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

bullmq-docs 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 8d 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.

BullMQ questions are easy to answer from stale memory or Bull (v3) patterns that do not apply to BullMQ. Use this skill to ground answers in the official BullMQ documentation and return the closest authoritative page instead of generic Redis queue advice.

When to Use

Use this skill when the request is about:

  • BullMQ concepts: queues, workers, jobs, and Redis-backed execution
  • Creating queues, adding jobs, and processing jobs with workers
  • Priorities, delays, repeatable jobs, cron schedules, and job schedulers
  • Retries, backoff, failure handling, and stalled job recovery
  • Concurrency, rate limiting, parallelism, and sandboxed processors
  • Flows and parent-child job dependencies
  • Events, metrics, telemetry, and observability
  • Redis compatibility, hosting, and cluster considerations
  • NestJS integration and production deployment guidance
  • BullMQ patterns: deduplication, idempotency, bulk jobs, and manual retry

Do not use this skill for:

  • Raw Redis server configuration unrelated to BullMQ usage. Use redis-docs instead.
  • RabbitMQ or Kafka messaging patterns. Use rabbitmq-docs or kafka-docs instead.
  • Legacy Bull (v3) API questions unless the user explicitly asks about Bull docs linked from BullMQ.
  • Python, Rust, Elixir, or PHP queue libraries unless the question is about those BullMQ ports documented on docs.bullmq.io.

Workflow

1. Classify the request

Decide which bucket the question belongs to before searching:

  • Quick start and core concepts
  • Connections and Redis setup
  • Queues, workers, and jobs
  • Scheduling, retries, and failure handling
  • Flows and advanced job relationships
  • Events, metrics, and telemetry
  • Patterns and production guidance
  • NestJS and framework integration

If you need a quick starting point, load references/topic-map.md and jump to the closest section.

2. Search official BullMQ docs first

  • Treat docs.bullmq.io as the source of truth for BullMQ.
  • Prefer pages under https://docs.bullmq.io/.
  • Search with the user's exact terms plus focused BullMQ phrases such as Queue, Worker, FlowProducer, repeat, limiter, sandboxed, or stalled.
  • When multiple pages are plausible, compare 2-3 candidate pages and pick the one that most directly answers the user's question.
  • For API details, prefer the Guide and API Reference before answering from memory.

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.
