What this skill does
Node.js Backend Patterns Comprehensive guidance for building scalable, maintainable, and production-ready Node.js backend applications with modern frameworks, architectural patterns, and best practices. Use this skill when Building REST APIs or GraphQL servers Creating microservices with Node.js Implementing authentication and authorization Designing scalable backend architectures Setting up middleware and error handling Integrating databases (SQL and NoSQL) Building real-time applications with WebSockets Implementing background job processing Do not use this skill when The task is unrelated to node.js backend patterns You need a different domain or tool outside this scope Instructions Clarify goals, constraints, and required inputs.

Resources resources/implementation-playbook.md for detailed patterns and examples. Limitations Use this skill only when the task clearly matches the scope described above. Do not treat the output as a substitute for environment-specific validation, testing, or expert review. Stop and ask for clarification if required inputs, permissions, safety boundaries, or success criteria are missing.
