tokio-patterns

What problem does it solve?

This Skill provides common patterns and idioms for building robust async applications with Tokio.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Worker Pool Pattern: Limit concurrent task execution using a semaphore to avoid overload and ensure fair scheduling.
• Request-Response Pattern: Use oneshot channels for precise request-response communication.
• Pub/Sub with Channels: Implement publish/subscribe messaging with Tokio channels.
• Timeout Pattern: Wrap operations with timeout to fail fast on long-running tasks.
• Retry with Exponential Backoff: Retry failed operations with backoff to improve resilience.
• Graceful Shutdown: Coordinate clean shutdown across components.

Quick Start

Use the tokio-patterns skill to implement a worker pool with a semaphore and a graceful shutdown in a sample service.
