Python background job patterns including task queues, workers, and event-driven architecture. Use when implementing async task processing, job queues, long-running operations, or decoupling work from request/response cycles.
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
# Python Background Jobs & Task Queues Decouple long-running or unreliable work from request/response cycles. Return immediately to the user while background workers handle the heavy lifting asynchronously. ## When to Use This Skill - Processing tasks that take longer than a few seconds - Sending emails, notifications, or webhooks - Generating reports or exporting data - Processing uploads or media transformations - Integrating with unreliable external services - Building event-driven architectures ## Core Concepts ### 1. Task Queue Pattern API accepts request, enqueues a job, returns immediately with a job ID. Workers process jobs asynchronously. ### 2. Idempotency Tasks may be retried on failure. Design for safe re-execution. ### 3. Job State Machine Jobs transition through states: pending → running → succeeded/failed. ### 4. At-Least-Once Delivery Most queues guarantee at-least-once delivery. Your code must handle duplicates. ## Quick Start This skill uses Celery for examples, a widely adopted task queue. Alternatives like RQ, Dramatiq, and cloud-native solutions (AWS SQS, GCP Tasks) are equally valid choices. ```python from celery import Celery …

How to install
mdr add dicklesworthstone/pi_agent_rust/python-background-jobs@sha256:18326a62e5af7996The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260205.788be98, 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.
