Manages parallel execution and background tasks using the Effect library's concurrency and fiber primitives.
This skill provides expert guidance for implementing concurrent patterns in Effect-based applications, enabling developers to parallelize tasks safely while managing resource limits. It covers core concepts like fiber lifecycles—including forking, joining, and interrupting—as well as racing operations for latency control and implementing timeouts for resilience. By following established patterns for Effect.all and Effect.forEach, it helps developers avoid common pitfalls such as unbounded concurrency, CPU exhaustion, and unhandled background processes, ensuring robust and performant TypeScript applications.
