### Other

- [@taskora/nestjs — NestJS Integration for taskora](https://kravetsone.github.io/taskora/taskora/skills/taskora-nestjs/SKILL.md): @taskora/nestjs — first-class NestJS integration for taskora. Use when building task queues in a Nest backend: TaskoraModule.forRoot, @TaskConsumer classes with constructor DI, @OnTaskEvent method bindings, TaskoraRef.for() zero-decorator dispatching, class middleware via @TaskMiddleware, @InjectInspector / @InjectDeadLetters / @InjectSchedules observability accessors, TaskoraBoardModule for the admin UI mount, producer/worker split deployment, multi-app routing, and the TaskoraTestHarness end-to-end test helper. Not for @nestjs/bull, @bull-board/nestjs, or bullmq-nestjs — those are different libraries with different APIs.

- [taskora — Task Queue for Node.js](https://kravetsone.github.io/taskora/taskora/skills/using-taskora/SKILL.md): taskora — TypeScript-first distributed task queue for Node.js with Redis backend. Use when building background job systems, scheduling recurring tasks, composing type-safe workflows (chain/group/chord), handling retries with backoff, rate limiting, debouncing/throttling/deduplicating dispatches, cancelling running jobs, validating job schemas, versioning job payloads, inspecting queue state, managing dead-letter queues, or running the admin dashboard. Not for BullMQ, Agenda, Bee-Queue, or other task queue libraries.
