Socket.IO v4.x client patterns, connection lifecycle, reconnection, authentication, rooms, namespaces, acknowledgments, binary data, TypeScript integration.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Socket.IO Real-Time Communication Patterns > **Quick Guide:** Socket.IO is a protocol layered over WebSocket, not an implementation of it — its client and a plain WebSocket server cannot talk to each other in either direction. What the layer buys is transport fallback, automatic reconnection, rooms, namespaces and acknowledgments, for about 14.5KB gzipped. The facts that change the answer: `auth` accepts a function that re-runs on every reconnection, `timeout` and `ackTimeout` are different clocks, and `socket.recovered` (v4.6.0+) tells you whether missed events were replayed or a full state refresh is owed. **Detailed Resources:** - [examples/core.md](examples/core.md) — typed socket factory, connection and event hooks, emit-with-ack, offline queue, volatile events, Manager multiplexing - [examples/authentication.md](examples/authentication.md) — token auth, refresh on reconnect, per-namespace auth, cookie auth, auth state machine - [examples/rooms.md](examples/rooms.md) — room manager and hooks, multi-room chat, namespace sockets, conditional namespace access …

How to install
mdr add agents-inc/skills/web-realtime-socket-io@sha256:18cc7a00ff9063abThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260906.085a8e7, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
