AI Agent Patterns with Trigger.dev
Build production-ready AI agents using Trigger.dev's durable execution.
Pattern Selection
Need to... → Use
─────────────────────────────────────────────────────
Process items in parallel → Parallelization
Route to different models/handlers → Routing
Chain steps with validation gates → Prompt Chaining
Coordinate multiple specialized tasks → Orchestrator-Workers
Self-improve until quality threshold → Evaluator-Optimizer
Pause for human approval → Human-in-the-Loop (waitpoints.md)
Stream progress to frontend → Realtime Streams (streaming.md)
Let LLM call your tasks as tools → ai.tool (ai-tool.md)

trigger-tasks
Build AI agents, workflows and durable background tasks with Trigger.dev. Use when creating tasks, triggering jobs, handling retries, scheduling cron jobs, or implementing queues and concurrency control.
1.6Ktrigger-config
Configure Trigger.dev projects with trigger.config.ts. Use when setting up build extensions for Prisma, Playwright, FFmpeg, Python, or customizing deployment settings.
1.4Ktrigger-agents
AI agent patterns with Trigger.dev - orchestration, parallelization, routing, evaluator-optimizer, and human-in-the-loop. Use when building LLM-powered tasks that need parallel workers, approval gates, tool calling, or multi-step agent workflows.
1.4Ktrigger-setup
Set up Trigger.dev in your project. Use when adding Trigger.dev for the first time, creating trigger.config.ts, or initializing the trigger directory.
1.4Ktrigger-realtime
Subscribe to Trigger.dev task runs in real-time from frontend and backend. Use when building progress indicators, live dashboards, streaming AI/LLM responses, or React components that display task status.
1.4Ktrigger-cost-savings
Analyze Trigger.dev tasks, schedules, and runs for cost optimization opportunities. Use when asked to reduce spend, optimize costs, audit usage, right-size machines, or review task efficiency. Requires Trigger.dev MCP tools for run analysis.
