awa-jobs SKILL.md skillA

awa-jobs from hardbyte/awa is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Install it, pinned
mdr add hardbyte/awa/awa-jobs@git:20261103.c7bc76b

Pins git:20261103.c7bc76b in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Author, enqueue, and handle jobs with the Awa Postgres-native job queue in Rust or Python. Use when defining a job kind, registering a worker or handler, configuring queues, enqueuing transactionally, choosing retry versus snooze, scheduling cron jobs, wiring in-process or webhook callbacks, or reporting job progress.

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

# Awa Jobs

Use the awa version the project depends on and match its documentation. Awa is
Postgres-only: a job is a typed payload stored in Postgres and run by a worker
that claims it. Defaults across both languages: queue `"default"`, priority `2`
(1 = highest … 4 = lowest), `max_attempts` 25.

## Define A Job Kind

Every job kind has a stable string name and a serializable payload. Choose the
name deliberately — it is a durable identifier stored on every row.

**Rust** — implement `JobArgs`, or derive it. The derived `kind()` is the
snake_case of the struct name; override with `#[awa(kind = "...")]`. The `awa`
facade re-exports both the trait and the derive macro, so depending on `awa`
alone is enough — no separate `awa-model` dependency is needed. (If you only
enqueue and never run a worker, depend on `awa-model` directly instead.)

```rust
use awa::JobArgs;
use serde::{Deserialize, Serialize};

#[derive(Debug, Serialize, Deserialize, JobArgs)]
struct SendEmail { to: String, subject: String } // kind() == "send_email"
```

snake_case derivation splits acronyms in non-obvious ways (`SMTPEmail` →
`smtp_email`, `HTMLToPDF` → `html_to_pdf`). If the exact kind string matters,

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add hardbyte/awa/awa-jobs@sha256:932f6e1452468716

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261103.c7bc76b, 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.
