This Skill solves the core problem of slow, costly direct chain queries for Sails app frontend and integration data needs by providing a structured, production-grade workflow to build event-driven read-side indexers with projected data models and GraphQL APIs.
Use the sails-indexer skill to design and implement a production-ready read-side indexer with a GraphQL API for your Gear/Vara Sails app's frontend data requirements.

Build a read-side indexer for Gear/Vara Sails applications by using event-driven projection pipelines to process chain events into Postgres read models, replacing expensive direct chain queries with fast, scalable data access.
Direct chain queries are slow and costly for Sails app frontends because they repeatedly fetch heavy historical data. An event-driven indexer solves this by projecting chain events into Postgres read models, enabling fast GraphQL queries for activity feeds and paginated lists.
Decode Sails program events automatically using IDL-driven event decoding, which leverages .idl files to provide consistent, type-safe data extraction without requiring manual SCALE parsing in your indexer pipeline.
Yes, you can expose a browser-safe thin GraphQL API from your projected Postgres read models for Gear/Vara apps, including built-in guidance for CORS configuration and dev proxy setup for frontend consumption.
The Sails indexer pipeline supports production-grade idempotency, replay, and restart safety for indexer workloads, ensuring reliable event-driven projection to Postgres read models during restarts or reprocessing.
The best way to handle historical views, activity feeds, and aggregated metrics for Sails apps is building an event-driven indexer that projects chain events into Postgres read models, enabling fast, scalable frontend data access via GraphQL.
