125-java-concurrency

125-java-concurrency is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from jabrena/cursor-rules-examples. It costs 78 tokens per session (643 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

Guidance for writing safer and more scalable concurrent Java code. Concurrency means several tasks can run at the same time, which can cause shared data and timing problems if handled incorrectly.

In plain words
What is it for?
It helps configure thread pools, coordinate producer and consumer tasks, compose asynchronous work, use virtual threads, handle cancellation, add backpressure, and avoid lock problems.
Why use it?
It helps prevent thread-safety bugs, deadlocks, overloaded workers, and poorly managed asynchronous tasks.

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

125-java-concurrency 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.

Java rules for Concurrency objects

Identify and apply Java concurrency best practices to improve thread safety, scalability, and maintainability by using modern java.util.concurrent utilities and virtual threads.

What is covered in this Skill?

  • Thread safety fundamentals: ConcurrentHashMap, AtomicInteger, ReentrantLock, ReadWriteLock, Java Memory Model
  • ExecutorService thread pool configuration: sizing, keep-alive, bounded queues, rejection policies, graceful shutdown
  • Producer-Consumer and Publish-Subscribe patterns with BlockingQueue
  • CompletableFuture for non-blocking async composition (thenApply/thenCompose/exceptionally/orTimeout)
  • Immutability and safe publication (volatile, static initializers)
  • Lock contention and false-sharing performance optimization
  • Virtual threads (Executors.newVirtualThreadPerTaskExecutor()) for I/O-bound scalability
  • ScopedValue over ThreadLocal for immutable cross-task data
  • Cooperative cancellation and InterruptedException discipline
  • Backpressure with bounded queues and CallerRunsPolicy
  • Deadlock avoidance via global lock ordering and tryLock with timeouts
  • ForkJoin/parallel-stream discipline for CPU-bound work
  • Virtual-thread pinning detection (JFR VirtualThreadPinned)
  • Thread naming and UncaughtExceptionHandler observability
  • Fit-for-purpose primitives: LongAdder, CopyOnWriteArrayList, StampedLock, Semaphore, CountDownLatch, Phaser

Scope: The reference is organized by examples (good/bad code patterns) for each core area. Apply recommendations based on applicable examples.

Constraints

Before applying any concurrency changes, ensure the project compiles. If compilation fails, stop immediately — compilation failure is a blocking condition. After applying improvements, run full verification.

  • MANDATORY: Run ./mvnw compile or mvn compile before applying any change
  • SAFETY: If compilation fails, stop immediately — compilation failure is a blocking condition that prevents any further processing
  • VERIFY: Run ./mvnw clean verify or mvn clean verify after applying improvements
  • BEFORE APPLYING: Read the reference for detailed good/bad examples, constraints, and safeguards for each concurrency pattern

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.

125-java-concurrency is a skill published in the GitHub repository jabrena/cursor-rules-examples (2 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 78 tokens to every session and 643 once invoked, about $0.0003 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 2026-08-31.
