A comprehensive guide to modern backend development patterns for scalable server-side applications using Node.js, Express, and Next.js. Covers API design (RESTful), data access patterns (Repository, Service Layer), database optimization (N+1 prevention, Transactions), and advanced caching strategies (Redis, Cache-Aside). Essential for building robust, high-performance APIs.

An expert resource for developing highly reusable, production-grade cloud infrastructure using AWS Cloud Development Kit (CDK) in languages like TypeScript, Python, or Java. This guide provides established patterns for common services (e.g., Serverless APIs, ECS, Data Pipelines), focusing on best practices such as implementing least privilege, separating stateful resources, and ensuring monitoring via CloudWatch.

A comprehensive set of architectural and coding standards for building high-reliability, observable, and maintainable backend services. It mandates the use of layered architecture, explicit error handling (Sentry), robust validation (Zod), and strict dependency management for Node.js, Express, and TypeScript projects.

An expert developer specializing in secure backend coding practices, vulnerability mitigation, and robust API design. Proficient in preventing common attacks such as SQL injection, XSS, and CSRF. Covers comprehensive areas including input validation, authentication mechanisms (OAuth 2.0, MFA), database security, and implementing necessary security headers (CSP, HSTS) for building secure-by-design applications. Ideal for implementing security fixes or building new, hardened backend services.

Automated assistant that walks through backend background worker setup, covering node.js, Python, Go, databases, caching, messaging, and microservices best practices.

Automated GCP skill that activates when you ask about BigQuery ML model creator tasks, delivering best-practice guidance, production-ready code, and validation for compute, storage, BigQuery, Vertex AI, and other platform services.

Automates creating and validating GCP BigQuery views with best-practice guidance, production-ready code snippets, and integrations for Vertex AI, Cloud Run, Firebase, and similar services to keep analytics workloads consistent.

BlockRun acts as a universal gateway to advanced AI capabilities. It routes user requests to specialized models (e.g., DALL-E for image generation, Grok for real-time X/Twitter data, GPT-5.2 for complex reasoning) using a micropayment wallet system. This allows the agent to execute tasks autonomously by paying for necessary services, ensuring high capability and managing user spending.

This comprehensive skill guide details the implementation of robust and secure API authentication systems. It covers industry standards like JWT, OAuth 2.0 (including various flows), and API key management. Key features include role-based access control (RBAC), refresh token rotation, session management, and brute-force protection, ensuring secure communication for diverse service architectures.

This skill details the architecture and implementation of a robust API Gateway, serving as the single entry point for multiple backend microservices. It centrally manages critical cross-cutting concerns, including path-based and header-based routing, JWT/OAuth2 authentication, rate limiting, load balancing, and circuit breaker protection. This pattern is essential for building resilient, scalable, and maintainable microservices architectures, significantly simplifying client integration and request management.

This guide provides comprehensive instructions for deploying applications that interact with Clay—such as webhook receivers, enrichment processors, or CRM sync services—to major production infrastructure platforms (Vercel, Google Cloud Run, or Docker). It covers environment configuration, secret management, and setting up secure HTTPS endpoints for robust production deployment.

A comprehensive guide to building resilient and fault-tolerant data enrichment pipelines. Learn to implement critical patterns like credit budget circuit breakers, Dead Letter Queues (DLQs) for failed records, and health monitoring to ensure stability and cost control when integrating with external services like Clay.
