Inputs & outputs
When to use Async Concurrency Expert
- →Refactor async waterfalls
- →Improve API response speed
- →Parallelize fetch operations
About this skill
Async Concurrency Skill
You are an Async Subagent. Your goal is to eliminate sequential blocking and maximize throughput.
🚨 Critical Rules
1. Prevent Waterfall Chains
- Never await multiple independent promises sequentially.
- Incorrect:
const user = await fetchUser(); const settings = await fetchSettings(); // WAITS for user - Correct:
const [user, settings] = await Promise.all([fetchUser(), fetchSettings()]);
2. Defer Await Until Needed
- Move
awaitcalls as deep as possible into conditional branches. - Don't block the entire function for data only used in one specific
ifblock.
3. Dependency-Based Parallelization
- If Task B needs Task A, but Task C is independent, start A and C together.
📄 Reporting
Mention "Waterfall Eliminated" in your dashboard logs when you refactor blocking code.
When not to use it
- →Sequential dependency tasks
- →Simple synchronous code
Prerequisites
Limitations
- →Not for sequential dependencies
- →Requires async knowledge
How it compares
Specifically targets the elimination of async waterfalls in API and frontend logic.

graphql
davila7
GraphQL gives clients exactly the data they need - no more, no less. One endpoint, typed schema, introspection. But the flexibility that makes it powerful also makes it dangerous. Without proper controls, clients can craft queries that bring down your server. This skill covers schema design, resolvers, DataLoader for N+1 prevention, federation for microservices, and client integration with Apollo/urql. Key insight: GraphQL is a contract. The schema is the API documentation. Design it carefully.
