What problem does it solve?

Salesforce developers often face situations where long-running or heavy workloads must run outside of a single transaction without hitting governor limits. This Skill provides proven async patterns—Future, Queueable, Batch, and Schedulable—with guidance on chaining, monitoring, and safe separation of concerns.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Supports asynchronous execution contexts: @future, Queueable, Batch, and Schedulable with clear guidance on chaining, limits, and monitoring.
• Provides decision guidance for choosing the right pattern for data processing, scheduling, and multi-step workflows in Salesforce.
• Includes practical considerations, error handling, and best practices to avoid common anti-patterns while promoting resilient designs.

Quick Start

Start by identifying the workload and implement an appropriate async pattern (future, Queueable, Batch, or Schedulable) with optional chaining to orchestrate multi-step processing.
