iii-reactive-backend（iii React 式后端）

Reactive Backend

Comparable to: Convex, Firebase, Supabase, Appwrite

Key Concepts

Use the concepts below when they fit the task. Not every reactive backend needs every trigger or realtime surface shown here.

• State is the "database" — CRUD via state::set, state::get, state::update, state::delete, state::list
• State triggers fire automatically when any value in a scope changes
• Side effects (notifications, metrics, stream pushes) are wired reactively, not imperatively
• Streams deliver real-time updates to connected clients

Architecture

HTTP CRUD endpoints
  → `state::set`, `state::update`, `state::delete` (writes to 'todos' scope)
    ↓ (automatic state triggers)
    → on-change → stream::send (push to clients)
    → update-metrics → state::update (aggregate counters)

HTTP GET /metrics → reads from 'todo-metrics' scope
WebSocket clients ← stream 'todos-live'

iii Primitives Used

Reference Implementation

See ../references/reactive-backend.js for the full working example — a real-time todo app with CRUD endpoints, automatic change broadcasting via streams, and reactive aggregate metrics.

Common Patterns

Code using this pattern commonly includes, when relevant:

• registerWorker(url, { workerName }) — worker initialization
• trigger state::set, state::get — CRUD via state module
• registerTrigger({ type: 'state', function_id, config: { scope } }) — reactive side effects on state change
• Event argument destructuring in reactive handlers: async (event) => { const { new_value, old_value, key } = event }
• trigger({ function_id: 'stream::send', payload, action: TriggerAction.Void() }) — push live updates to clients
• const logger = new Logger() — structured logging inside handlers

Adapting This Pattern

Use the adaptations below when they apply to the task.

• State triggers fire on any change in the scope — use the event argument (new_value, old_value, key) to determine what changed
• Multiple functions can react to the same scope independently (on-change and update-metrics both watch todos)
• Stream clients connect via ws://host:port/stream/{stream_name}/{group_id}
• Keep reactive functions fast — offload heavy work to queues if needed

Pattern Boundaries

• If the request focuses on registering external/legacy HTTP endpoints via registerFunction (especially with endpoint lists like { path, id } plus iteration), prefer iii-http-invoked-functions.
• Stay with iii-reactive-backend when state scopes, state triggers, and live stream updates are the core requirement.

When to Use

• Use this skill when the task is primarily about iii-reactive-backend in the iii engine.
• Triggers when the request directly asks for this pattern or an equivalent implementation.

Boundaries

• Never use this skill as a generic fallback for unrelated tasks.
• You must not apply this skill when a more specific iii skill is a better fit.
• Always verify environment and safety constraints before applying examples from this skill.
