Inngest Skills - Setup Guide¶
Source: inngest/inngest-skills GitHub: inngest/inngest-skills Skills: 14 skills · 19.3K total installs Category: Workflow Orchestration First Seen: catalogued August 16, 2026 sweep (inngest-events on skills.sh since February 17, 2026) Quality Tier: 🟡 Trusted - official Inngest org; top skill carries a Snyk Warn (see Limitations)
Inngest's official skills teach agents durable execution: event schemas, idempotency, fan-out patterns, step-based retries, middleware, and flow control. For a multi-cron operation like CorpusIQ, durable functions with automatic retry semantics are the pattern layer between a naive background job and a reliable one.
Installation¶
npx skills add inngest/inngest-skills
Individual skills install with the explicit repo form:
npx skills add https://github.com/inngest/inngest-skills --skill inngest-events
Prerequisites¶
| Requirement | Details |
|---|---|
| Node.js + npx | For the skill installer |
| Inngest SDK | npm install inngest in the project |
| Inngest Dev Server | npx inngest-cli dev for local development |
Note: these skills are TypeScript-focused. For Python or Go, the suite points to the Inngest documentation via inngest.com/llms.txt; core concepts carry across languages.

Quick Start¶
- Install:
npx skills add inngest/inngest-skills - Start with
inngest-setupto scaffold the project, theninngest-eventsfor event design - Ask: "convert this cron job into an Inngest durable function with retries and idempotency"
CorpusIQ Use Cases¶
| Use Case | How |
|---|---|
| Cron hardening | Our monitoring crons are fire-and-forget today; durable functions add retry and checkpoint semantics |
| Multi-step pipelines | Step-based execution maps onto our sweep → diff → draft → push pipelines |
| Agent workflows | inngest-agents and inngest-agent-evals address orchestrated multi-agent runs with eval hooks |
| Idempotency discipline | Event design rules transfer directly to our internal queue handling |
Integration with CorpusIQ¶
CorpusIQ is the connector layer that lets AI assistants read the systems a business already runs on - accounting, payments, CRM, email, files and analytics - and answer with the source named. It is read-only by design: it retrieves data and never writes to, or acts in, a connected system, which is what makes it safe to point at live accounts.
This page is part of the CorpusIQ directory, the reference we maintain for the MCP server and agent-skill ecosystem. Run alongside CorpusIQ, a third-party server like this one can be combined with a company's own business data in a single answer.
Limitations / Verification¶
- Security audits on inngest-events: Gen Agent Trust Hub Pass, Socket Pass, Snyk Warn - trusted with the audit named
- Publisher-page install counts verified (19.3K total); GitHub 28 stars on the repo
- TypeScript-only guidance; Python/Go users get documentation pointers, not skills
- Eight of fourteen skills are sub-1K installs - the core five carry the suite
npx skills add inngest/inngest-skills # verify install works
