Queue Clinic — API

Paste the queue code, get a structured infrastructure review.

API tokens Open the app

Review your BullMQ queue code from your own scripts

Send BullMQ JavaScript or TypeScript — one file or several, each preceded by a // file: name.ts comment — and get back one JSON object: a production-readiness posture, the inventory of every resource with its role, prioritized findings across reliability, correctness, performance, operations, security and hygiene, each with a corrected JS/TS fragment, quick wins, and the focus areas to work through first. Everything this app does goes through the SkillSafe App API — plain JSON over HTTPS — so you can hang a review off a pull request that touches the job of this endpoint set. Wire it into whatever produces or reviews your queue code: a pre-merge check on workers/, a scheduled audit, or an editor command. pick a language once and the whole page follows.

Basics

Base URL: https://api.skillsafe.ai/v1/app-api, app slug queue-clinic. Every request sends Authorization: Bearer <token> and JSON bodies with Content-Type: application/json. Responses are wrapped in an envelope: {"data": …} on success, {"error": {"code", "message"}} on failure. The review itself is produced by the gpt-terra model. Estimates are free; runs are metered against your credit balance. There is a single run task — one bundle of code in, one review out, no follow-up calls and no session state to carry.

StatusMeaning
401Missing or expired token — create a new session.
402Not enough credits — top up at skillsafe.ai/account/credits.
403The token isn't allowed to do this (e.g. a guest reviewing a very large bundle).
404Unknown job or record id.
5xxTransient platform error — retry with backoff.

Browsers enforce CORS for this API, so run these examples from a server, script or terminal — not from another website's frontend.

Step 0 — A tiny client

Every task below is a single HTTP call, so start with a short helper that adds the auth header, sends JSON and unwraps the data envelope. The later steps reuse it.

export API="https://api.skillsafe.ai/v1/app-api"
export TOKEN="YOUR_TOKEN"      # see step 1

# every call looks like:
#   curl -s "$API/..." -H "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN" [-d '{json}']
# jq is used below to pull fields out of the {"data": ...} envelope

}

Step 1 — Get a token

POST /guest

A guest token lets you check balances and estimate costs for free. For metered review runs billed to your own account, use your personal token: open the token page, sign in with SkillSafe, and press Copy shell export — it puts export SKILLSAFE_TOKEN="…" on your clipboard, which every example below reads. Treat the token like a password: it can spend your credits. For fully headless scripts, POST /guest mints a guest token with no browser involved.

curl -s -X POST "$API/guest" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"slug":"queue-clinic"}' | jq -r '.data.token'
token = api("POST", "/guest", {"slug": "queue-clinic"})["token"]
const { token } = await api("POST", "/guest", { slug: "queue-clinic" });
var guest struct{ Token string `json:"token"` }
err := call("POST", "/guest", map[string]string{"slug": "queue-clinic"}, &guest)
String envelope = api("POST", "/guest", """
    {"slug":"queue-clinic"}""");
// token is at data.token in the returned JSON
token = api("POST", "/guest", { slug: "queue-clinic" })["token"]
$token = api("POST", "/guest", ["slug" => "queue-clinic"])["token"];
var guest = await SkillSafe.ApiAsync(HttpMethod.Post, "/guest",
    new { slug = "queue-clinic" });
var token = guest.GetProperty("token").GetString();

The app stores this browser's token under the localStorage key skillsafe_app_token:queue-clinic, on the app's own origin. The token page reads and manages it for you — you never need to open developer tools.

Step 2 — Check who you are and your balance

GET /me

Returns subject_type ("user" or "guest"), subject_id and your credits balance. Check this before reviewing a large bundle.

curl -s "$API/me" -H "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN" | jq '.data'
me = api("GET", "/me")
print(me["subject_type"], me["credits"])
const me = await api("GET", "/me");
console.log(me.subject_type, me.credits);
var me struct {
	SubjectType string `json:"subject_type"`
	Credits     int64  `json:"credits"`
}
err := call("GET", "/me", nil, &me)
String envelope = api("GET", "/me", null);
// data.subject_type, data.credits
me = api("GET", "/me")
puts "#{me["subject_type"]}: #{me["credits"]} credits"
$me = api("GET", "/me");
echo "{$me['subject_type']}: {$me['credits']} credits\n";
var me = await SkillSafe.ApiAsync(HttpMethod.Get, "/me");
Console.WriteLine($"{me.GetProperty("subject_type")}: {me.GetProperty("credits")} credits");

Step 3 — Estimate the cost

POST /estimate

Send exactly the input you would send to /run; the response's hold_credits is the worst-case cost. Nothing is charged and no job is created, so estimating is free — useful when you are piping a whole kustomize build in and want a ceiling before spending credits.

Input fieldTypeNotes
codestring, requiredThe BullMQ JavaScript or TypeScript: queue setup, producers, workers, config. One file or several concatenated, each preceded by a // file: name.ts comment. This is the model's only evidence — nothing is read from a live Redis. Inputs longer than 100,000 characters are clipped middle-out, with a // [... clipped ...] comment showing where. At least 60 characters are needed for a review.
runtimestringlong-lived-server (a persistent Node process or container) | serverless (Lambda / functions) | mixed | unknown — changes what is idiomatic: long-lived Workers do not fit a serverless runtime, and connection reuse rules differ.
concernstringgeneral | reliability | performance | operations | correctness — the review emphasis. It weights the findings and the summary, but it is emphasis and not exclusivity: a high-severity finding from another category is never suppressed.
contextstring, optionalExtra context: BullMQ and Redis versions, where Redis is hosted (Upstash, ElastiCache, self-managed), expected job volume, what monitoring already exists, whether processors are already idempotent, and any gap you have already chosen to accept. Clipped at 20,000 characters.
prescan_factsobject, optionalWhat a client-side scanner mechanically matched in the code: {"resources": [], "flags": []}. Each entry is {id, label}. Resource ids look like res:queue/email or res:worker/email; flag ids are <check>:<name>no-retry:set, no-backoff:set, no-retention:set, no-concurrency:email, no-shutdown:set, failures-unwatched:email, floating-add:emailqueue, conn-retries:set, repeat-on-boot:emailqueue, plain-secret:password. Every flag id you send comes back in coverage_check. The web UI fills this from its own scan; API callers may omit the field or send the two empty arrays.
retry_notestring, optionalOnly set by the app's automatic reformat retry when a first reply was not valid JSON. Leave it out.

prescan_facts.flags is how you make the review answer for things you already know about. Send {"resources": [{"id": "res:deployment/web", "label": "Deployment/web"}], "flags": [{"id": "img-latest:web", "label": "web uses :latest"}]} and every flag id comes back in coverage_check — addressed by a finding, or set aside with the reason. Nothing you flag is silently dropped, which makes it the field to assert on in a CI check.

Step 4 — Run the review and wait for the result

POST /run
GET /jobs/{job_id}

/run takes the same input as /estimate, places a credit hold and returns a job_id. Poll /jobs/{job_id} every 1–2 seconds until status is succeeded or failed (a run typically takes 30–90 s, since every finding carries a corrected code fragment). Always send an Idempotency-Key header so a network retry can't start a second, double-charged run. The review is in output — usually nested as output.output, and as a JSON string, so parse defensively. The samples below print the posture, the inventory, the prioritized findings and the focus areas, then save the whole object to review.json.

JOB_ID=$(curl -s -X POST "$API/run" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN" -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "Idempotency-Key: kc-$(date +%s)" \
  -d @input.json | jq -r '.data.job_id')

The model is asked for one JSON object and nothing else, but a stray code fence or preamble is always possible. Strip a leading ```json fence, take the text between the first { and the last }, and only then parse — that is what the app does before it falls back to a retry_note reformat run.

The review object — output schema

One JSON object, always the same shape. Every array is present, and the review is grounded in the pasted source alone: findings cite only queues, workers and files that actually appear in code, and a construct that is simply absent (no failed listener, no PodDisruptionBudget, no HPA) is reported against the closest real resource or against (missing from the set). Where the code is silent on something that changes the verdict you get an entry in assumptions and, if it would change the ranking, in open_questions. Expect five to fifteen findings on a typical bundle — a well-built set may honestly yield two or three, and findings is never empty.

FieldTypeMeaning
review_namestringA short title naming the workload, taken from the code's own naming — e.g. email pipeline — queue review.
posturestringproduction-ready | hardening-recommended | not-production-ready. See the table below.
verdictstringOne sentence justifying the posture and naming the single most important change.
exec_summarystringTwo or three paragraphs, separated by blank lines, on the dominant themes across the set.
assumptionsstring[]Explicit assumptions filling gaps the code left open. Read these first — a wrong assumption invalidates the findings built on it.
open_questionsstring[]Questions whose answers would change the ranking.
inventoryarray{kind, name, scope, role} — every Queue, Worker, QueueEvents and FlowProducer the review parsed out of the code and the part it plays. scope is the file or module it is defined in.
findingsarrayThe prioritized findings table — ids QC-001, QC-002, … in sequence, at least one entry. Columns are listed below.
coverage_checkarray{id, addressed, note} — one entry per prescan_facts.flags id you sent, each appearing exactly once. See the semantics below.
quick_winsstring[]One-line changes worth doing immediately, ahead of any planning. May be empty when nothing here is a one-liner.
focus_areasarray{area, why, finding_ids} — what to work through first, one sentence tied to the review, and the finding ids that motivate it. Every id in finding_ids exists in findings.
summarystringClosing paragraph: what to fix first, and what risk remains after that.

The three posture values:

postureWhat it means
production-readyThe code holds up as written: retries with backoff, retention, failure visibility, deliberate concurrency, graceful shutdown, a sound connection. Findings still exist, but they are additions and refinements, not blockers. Genuinely well-built code lands here rather than having severity manufactured for it.
hardening-recommendedThe shape is right, but named gaps should be closed before this carries real traffic — a missing probe, no PodDisruptionBudget, a permissive default securityContext, limits without requests.
not-production-readyAt least one thing would cause an outage, an unreproducible rollout, or a real security exposure as written: a floating :latest tag, a literal secret, a privileged or host-network pod, a single replica behind live traffic.

Each entry in findings:

ColumnMeaning
idSequential QC-001, QC-002, … — the stable handle referenced from focus_areas[].finding_ids.
categoryreliability | correctness | performance | operations | security | hygiene. Weighted by the concern you sent, but never restricted to it.
severitylow | medium | high — how bad it is when it bites.
likelihoodlow | medium | high — how likely it is to bite.
prioritycritical | high | medium | low — severity by likelihood. critical is reserved for something exploitable or outage-causing as written, so sort on this field and work top-down. This is also the field to gate a pipeline on.
resourceThe Queue/name, Worker/name or file this is about — always something that appears in code, or the literal (missing from the set) when the finding is about an absent construct.
problemWhat is wrong, in this code specifically.
impactWhat happens on a real cluster because of it.
fixThe concrete change to make — not "add validation".
snippetA corrected JS/TS fragment you can paste: the fixed block, correctly indented, not the whole file. Empty string when a snippet would add nothing. Secret values are never echoed — a placeholder appears instead.

coverage_check semantics:

CaseWhat you get
Every flag id you sentEach prescan_facts.flags id appears in coverage_check exactly once. Nothing you flagged is silently dropped, which makes this the field to assert on in a CI check. Ids in prescan_facts.resources are not reconciled here — they shape the inventory instead.
addressed: trueThe flag is covered by the review; note names the finding id that covers it.
addressed: falseThe flag was deliberately set aside; note gives the reason — a check that fired but is not a real problem for this workload (a fire-and-forget add() on a metrics queue where loss is acceptable, a repeatable job that is intentionally re-registered).
Nothing sentOmit prescan_facts, or send the two empty arrays, and coverage_check comes back empty. The rest of the review is unaffected.

This is AI-generated review from source text, not a production sign-off: it sees only what you sent, never the live Redis, the real job volume or the rest of the codebase. Check assumptions and open_questions before you act on the rankings, run every snippet through your own tests and linter, and keep a human reviewer in the loop.

Step 5 — Stream the review as it is written

POST /run-stream

/run-stream takes exactly the same body as /run but answers with server-sent events, so you can show progress instead of a spinner — useful here because a full findings table with corrected code makes for a long reply. This app's own progress panel is this endpoint. Events are separated by a blank line; each has an event: line and a data: line carrying JSON.

EventPayloadMeaning
job{job_id, status}Sent once, when the job is accepted — show "starting".
delta{text}A chunk of the reply, in order. Append it; the accumulated length is your only progress signal (the total is not known in advance). The app advances its step list by watching for the "review_name", "inventory", "findings", "coverage_check" and "focus_areas" keys as they arrive.
done{job_id, status, charged_credits, output}The final, authoritative result — read the review from output.output rather than trusting concatenated deltas, and the settled price from charged_credits.
error{code, message}Replaces done when the run fails.
# -N disables buffering so events print as they arrive

In a browser, the native EventSource only speaks GET, and this endpoint is a POST — read the fetch response body incrementally, as the JavaScript sample above does. On an idempotent replay the server may answer with a plain JSON envelope instead of an event stream; check the Content-Type before you start parsing frames.
