You can add cross-cutting concerns to Inngest functions by applying reusable middleware across function lifecycles. This Skill provides patterns to compose and register middleware at the client or function level, ensuring consistent observability and dependency management.

Inngest middleware is a layer that intercepts function execution and event sending to apply shared services. You need it when running multiple Inngest functions that require consistent logging, data transformation, error tracking, or encryption.

You configure Sentry and encryption by extending Inngest middleware with custom integrations. This Skill demonstrates how to compose built-in and custom middleware to encrypt data and track errors across your production-grade workflows.

You can apply middleware both client-wide and function-specific in Inngest. This flexibility allows you to register global hooks for shared services while targeting individual functions with specialized middleware for tasks like data transformation.

The best way to manage shared clients is using Inngest middleware for dependency injection. This approach injects shared services into the function lifecycle, enabling consistent client access and observability without duplicating initialization code.
