What problem does it solve?

This Skill resolves issues where Node.js HTTP proxy requests hang indefinitely on keep-alive connections, ensuring reliable Time-To-First-Byte (TTFB) timeouts.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Reliable TTFB Timeout: Implements a robust timeout mechanism that works for both new and reused HTTP/S connections.
  • Keep-Alive Connection Safety: Specifically addresses the race conditions that cause timeouts to fail on persistent connections.
  • Use Case: When your Node.js reverse proxy experiences requests that hang forever after the first successful one, especially when the upstream service might become temporarily unavailable.

Quick Start

Use the node-http-proxy-ttfb-timeout skill to implement a reliable TTFB timeout for your Node.js HTTP proxy.
