trigger-authoring-taskslisted

Covers writing backend Trigger.dev tasks with @trigger.dev/sdk: defining task() and schemaTask(), the run function and its ctx, retries, waits, queues and concurrency, idempotency keys, run metadata, logging, triggering other tasks (and the Result shape), scheduled/cron tasks, and the essentials of trigger.config.ts. Load this whenever you are authoring or editing code inside a /trigger directory, defining a task, or writing backend code that triggers tasks. Realtime/React hooks and AI chat are covered by separate skills.

# Authoring Trigger.dev Tasks The full, version-pinned reference for authoring tasks ships **inside your installed `@trigger.dev/sdk`**. Read it before writing code — it always matches the SDK version in this project, so it never drifts: - **Skill:** `node_modules/@trigger.dev/sdk/skills/trigger-authoring-tasks/SKILL.md` — the complete guide (setup, `schemaTask`, retries, triggering + the Result shape, idempotency, waits, metadata, scheduled tasks, queues/concurrency, `trigger.config.ts`). - **Docs:** the full, version-pinned docs ship bundled at `node_modules/@trigger.dev/sdk/docs/`; the skill above lists the exact pages it draws from in its `sources:` frontmatter. Grep for an API, e.g. `grep -rl "schemaTask" node_modules/@trigger.dev/sdk/docs/`. If those paths don't exist, `@trigger.dev/sdk` isn't installed yet — install it first. In a non-hoisted layout, resolve the package with `node -p "require.resolve('@trigger.dev/sdk/package.json')"` and read `skills/` + `docs/` beside it. Always import from `@trigger.dev/sdk` — never `@trigger.dev/sdk/v3` (deprecated alias) or `@trigger.dev/core`. ## Common mistakes 1. **CRITICAL: Treating the wait result as the output.** `triggerAndWait` and `wait.forToken` return a Result object, not the raw output. - Wrong: `const out = await childTask.triggerAndWait(p); use(out.foo);` - Correct: `const r = await childTask.triggerAndWait(p); if (r.ok) use(r.output.foo);` (or `.unwrap()`). 2. **Wrapping `triggerAndWait` / `batchTrigger
