Engineer process-local concurrency limits and bulkheads around scarce resources, with explicit admission deadlines, permit ownership, weighted work, partitioning, fairness, observability and overload validation. Distinguishes concurrency, rate and queue limits and the assumptions behind Little's Law. Use after virtual-thread migrations, during downstream saturation, or when local limits leak, over-release, double-queue or fail to compose across replicas.
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
# Concurrency Limiting and Bulkheads ## Purpose and boundary Bound the work simultaneously holding or competing for a scarce resource inside one JVM. A limit is correct only when it names the protected resource, admission location, waiting budget, ownership, rejection behavior and scope. This skill owns process-local mechanisms. Cluster-wide allocation, rate limiting and distributed leases cross process boundaries; this skill detects that handoff and links to `rate-limiting-and-load-shedding` and `distributed-locks-and-leases` rather than duplicating their protocols. ## Design workflow Inspect the target's Maven/Gradle release/toolchain, deployed JDK, client versions and completion/ cancellation contract first. The semaphore example uses Java 11 source compatibility; virtual threads require Java 21+ without preview. API references were reviewed against Java 25, not an authorization to upgrade the target. With missing capacity or ownership evidence, provide a conditional design and the measurement/contract needed before choosing a production limit. 1. Name the constrained unit: calls, connections, bytes, file handles, CPU tasks, tenant share, or a provider quota. …

How to install
mdr add robsonkades/agent-skills/concurrency-limiting-and-bulkheads@sha256:bb85634d010c2d45The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261016.c769bd8, 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.
