Use when implementing delays that must survive process restarts (e.g., 24-hour cart abandonment, scheduled follow-ups), waiting for human approval or external events with timeouts (review gates, webhook callbacks, async API completion), polling external services without losing state on crashes, calling other functions and awaiting their results, memoizing expensive operations so they don't re-run on retry, or running async work in parallel inside a workflow. Covers Inngest step methods…
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
# Inngest Steps
Build robust, durable workflows with Inngest's step methods. Each step is a separate HTTP request that can be independently retried and monitored.
> **These skills are focused on TypeScript.** For Python or Go, refer to the [Inngest documentation](https://www.inngest.com/llms.txt) for language-specific guidance. Core concepts apply across all languages.
## Core Concept
**🔄 Critical: Each step re-runs your function from the beginning.** Put ALL non-deterministic code (API calls, DB queries, randomness) inside steps, never outside.
**📊 Step Limits:** Every function has a maximum of 1,000 steps and 4MB total step data.
```typescript
// ❌ WRONG - will run 4 times
export default inngest.createFunction(
{ id: "bad-example", triggers: [{ event: "test" }] },
async ({ step }) => {
console.log("This logs 4 times!"); // Outside step = bad
await step.run("a", () => console.log("a"));
await step.run("b", () => console.log("b"));
await step.run("c", () => console.log("c"));
}
);
// ✅ CORRECT - logs once each
export default inngest.createFunction(
{ id: "good-example", triggers: [{ event: "test" }] },
async ({ step }) => {

How to install
mdr add inngest/inngest-skills/inngest-steps@sha256:8745ab2abccd73f2The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260506.c1996f9, 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.
