SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Async bugs in React Native apps using Zustand can be subtle: missing awaits, race conditions, and floating promises that lead to misordered state updates.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Floating Promise Detection: identify async calls without proper awaiting to prevent fire-and-forget errors.
  • Post-Condition Validation: ensure critical async operations yield valid state before proceeding.
  • Async Function Identification: reveal hidden async patterns in Zustand actions and callbacks.
  • Sequential vs Parallel Async: guidance on when to run tasks in sequence or in parallel to avoid races.
  • Async in useEffect: best practices for safe asynchronous logic inside useEffect.

Quick Start

Use this skill to audit a React Native module that updates state after an async operation.

FAQPage Schema
How do I fix race conditions in React Native apps using Zustand?

To fix race conditions in React Native apps using Zustand, you need patterns that detect missing awaits and floating promises. This skill provides review checklists and lint configurations to ensure deterministic async behavior across components and state stores.

What is a floating promise in Zustand actions?

A floating promise in Zustand actions is an async call without proper awaiting, causing fire-and-forget errors. This skill identifies these hidden async patterns in callbacks to prevent misordered state updates.

How do I safely use async functions inside a React Native useEffect hook?

To safely use async functions inside a React Native useEffect, follow best practices for safe asynchronous logic. This skill provides patterns to prevent race conditions and ensure critical async operations yield valid state before proceeding.

When should I run sequential vs parallel async tasks in React Native?

You should choose sequential vs parallel async tasks in React Native based on whether operations risk race conditions. This skill provides guidance on running tasks in sequence or parallel to avoid races and ensure deterministic state updates.

Can I use ESLint to detect missing awaits in React Native TypeScript projects?

Yes, you can use ESLint to detect missing awaits in React Native TypeScript projects. This skill provides specific lint configurations to automatically identify floating promises and enforce safe async behavior.

How do I validate post-conditions after an async state update in Zustand?

To validate post-conditions after an async state update in Zustand, ensure critical async operations yield valid state before proceeding. This skill provides patterns to enforce deterministic behavior and prevent misordered updates.
