Activation
This is the description your AI agent reads to decide when to run this skill — the better it matches your request, the more reliably it fires.
Reference architecture for enterprise Gamma integrations.Key capabilities
- →Implement basic request-response integration patterns
- →Structure service layer architecture for multi-platform products
- →Configure event-driven architecture using message queues
- →Manage Gamma API interactions via singleton clients
- →Orchestrate background job execution with workers
- →Implement caching strategies for API response deduplication
How it works
The architecture provides patterns for integrating Gamma by separating concerns into API gateways, service layers, and background workers. It utilizes client singletons for API communication and message queues for asynchronous processing.

Implementation
Service Layer Example
// services/presentation-service.ts
import { GammaClient } from '@gamma/sdk';
import { Cache } from './cache';
import { Queue } from './queue';
export class PresentationService {
private gamma: GammaClient;
private cache: Cache;
private queue: Queue;
constructor() {
this.gamma = new GammaClient({
apiKey: process.env.GAMMA_API_KEY,
});
this.cache = new Cache({ ttl: 300 }); # 300: timeout: 5 minutes
this.queue = new Queue('presentations');
}
async create(userId: string, options: CreateOptions) {
// Add to queue for async processing
const job = await this.queue.add({
type: 'create',
userId,
options,
});
return { jobId: job.id, status: 'queued' };
}
async get(id: string) {
return this.cache.getOrFetch(
`presentation:${id}`,
() => this.gamma.presentations.get(id)
);
}
async list(userId: string, options: ListOptions) {
return this.gamma.presentations.list({
filter: { userId },
...options,
});
}
}
Event Handler Example
// workers/gamma-worker.ts
import { Worker } from 'bullmq';
import { GammaClient } from '@gamma/sdk';
const gamma = new GammaClient({ apiKey: process.env.GAMMA_API_KEY });
const worker = new Worker('presentations', async (job) => {
switch (job.data.type) {
case 'create':
const presentation = await gamma.presentations.create(job.data.options);
await notifyUser(job.data.userId, 'created', presentation);
return presentation;
case 'export':
const exportResult = await gamma.exports.create(
job.data.presentationId,
job.data.format
);
await notifyUser(job.data.userId, 'exported', exportResult);
return exportResult;
default:
throw new Error(`Unknown job type: ${job.data.type}`);
}
});
