Author and run a durable AI chat agent with chat.agent from @trigger.dev/sdk/ai: the per-turn run loop, why you MUST spread ...chat.toStreamTextOptions() first, returning a StreamTextResult vs calling chat.pipe(), the two server actions (chat.createStartSessionAction + auth.createPublicToken), and wiring useChat to…

Advanced and operational chat.agent capabilities for Trigger.dev, loaded on demand. Load this when working on the raw Sessions primitive (sessions / SessionHandle), a custom chat transport or the realtime wire protocol, durable sub-agents (AgentChat, chat.stream.writer), human-in-the-loop, steering, actions…

Analyze Trigger.dev tasks, schedules, and runs for cost optimization opportunities. Use when asked to reduce spend, optimize costs, audit usage, right-size machines, or review task efficiency. Combines static source analysis with live run analysis via the Trigger.dev MCP tools (listruns, getrundetails…

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…

Bootstrap Trigger.dev into an existing project from scratch: authenticate the CLI, install @trigger.dev/sdk and @trigger.dev/build, write trigger.config.ts with the project ref and task dirs, scaffold a /trigger directory with a first task, wire tsconfig and .gitignore, set TRIGGERSECRETKEY, and run the dev server.…

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.…
