backend-concurrency-review

backend-concurrency-review is a skill for Claude Code from infraspecdev/tesseract. It costs 47 tokens per session (967 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A review guide for backend concurrency, meaning how code behaves when multiple tasks or requests run at the same time.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when reviewing threaded or asynchronous services, shared mutable state, locks, concurrent collections, or retry logic.
Why use it?
It helps find race conditions, unsafe shared state, async mistakes, locking problems, and retry behavior that can cause intermittent failures.

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

backend-concurrency-review 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 Concurrency Review

Overview

Review backend code for concurrency correctness: race conditions on shared mutable state, lock granularity and scope, async-pattern pitfalls (forgotten await, fire-and-forget exception loss, callback hell), idempotency for retried operations, and safe shared state across request threads.

Framework-agnostic but with examples in JVM threading, JS async/await, Python asyncio, Go goroutines.

When to Use

  • Reviewing services with shared state (singletons, statics, module globals)
  • Reviewing async/await/CompletableFuture/goroutine code
  • Auditing retry logic for idempotency
  • Reviewing concurrent collections and locking patterns

When NOT to Use

  • Pure single-threaded logic — concurrency rubric does not apply
  • Distributed coordination (consensus, leader election) — separate skill not in v1
  • Database isolation level review — covered by database-review

Review Process

  1. Inventory: shared state (singletons, statics, beans with mutable fields), async call sites, locks
  2. For each, apply Evaluation Points C1–C10
  3. Cross-cut: trace a request path; flag every shared write that is not synchronized

Evaluation Points

# Check What to Look For Severity
C1 Shared mutable state Singleton beans, static fields, module-level vars holding mutable collections without synchronization High
C2 Read-modify-write atomicity x = x + 1 on a shared field. Use atomic types (AtomicInteger, LongAdder) or explicit locks High
C3 Concurrent collection choice HashMap not safe for concurrent access; use ConcurrentHashMap. Same for lists and sets High
C4 Lock granularity Fine-grained locks where contention matters; avoid synchronized(this) over wide methods Medium
C5 Async exception loss CompletableFuture.runAsync / setTimeout / goroutine whose exceptions go nowhere High
C6 Forgotten await / .get() Async result ignored; exception happens later in detached context Medium
C7 Idempotency on retry Operations that may retry must be safe to repeat — no double-charge, double-create, double-send High
C8 Cancellation handling Long async tasks honor cancellation tokens / Thread.interrupted / ctx.Done() Medium
C9 Deadlock risk Two locks acquired in inconsistent order across paths. Resource hierarchy not enforced Medium
C10 Backpressure on async producers Unbounded queues / unbounded fan-out can OOM. Bound the queue or rate-limit upstream Medium

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.

backend-concurrency-review is a skill published in the GitHub repository infraspecdev/tesseract (5 stars, last pushed 3mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 47 tokens to every session and 967 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 2026-09-03.
