inngest-realtime
Use when streaming durable workflow updates to a UI in real time — live order status pages that animate as steps complete, AI agent token streaming from a function to the browser, log tailing for long-running jobs, or human-in-the-loop approval flows that publish a prompt and wait for a user reply. Covers Inngest v4 native realtime: defining typed channels, publishing from inside step.run, minting subscription tokens via server actions, and consuming the stream from React/Next.js client components.
Install
With your agent
Install OMGSkills skill "inngest/inngest-claude-code-plugin:skills/inngest-realtime" into this agent's normal skills directory: call the OMGSkills MCP get_install_plan tool for your agent and run the script it returns (it installs only the pinned commit and verifies SKILL.md), and stop if MCP or the pin is unavailable. Do not overwrite or change existing skills without asking me.
Manual command
git clone https://github.com/inngest/inngest-claude-code-plugin /tmp/inngest-claude-code-plugin && ln -s /tmp/inngest-claude-code-plugin/skills/inngest-realtime ~/.claude/skills/inngest-realtimeFrom README
Inngest Realtime Stream updates from durable Inngest functions to live UIs. Use channels and topics to broadcast progress, render workflow execution as it happens, or build bi-directional human-in-the-loop flows. These skills are focused on TypeScript. For Python or Go, refer to the Inngest documentation for language-specific guidance. Core concepts apply across all languages. ⚠ CRITICAL: v3 vs v4 package selection Realtime in Inngest v4 lives at the SDK subpath inngest/realtime. The standalone @inngest/realtime npm package is a v3-era package and is NOT compatible with inngest@4.x. If your project is on v4 (the npm default), do not @inngest/realtime. Use the imports below. Symptoms of using the wrong package on v4: TypeError: Cls is not a constructor on every PUT /api/inngest, 401 on subscription tokens, type incompatibility on new Inngest({ middleware: [...] }). Verify your package.json shows "inngest": "^4.x" before reading further.
