description: Generate BullMQ job queue setup and workers. Use when implementing background jobs.
---

# Queue Generator

Background jobs need queues, workers, and retry logic. Describe your job and get a complete BullMQ setup.

**One command. Zero config. Just works.**

## Quick Start

```bash
npx ai-queue "send welcome email after signup"
```

## What It Does

- Generates BullMQ queue configuration
- Creates worker code with proper error handling
- Includes retry logic and backoff strategies
- Sets up job scheduling

## Usage Examples

```bash
# Email queue
npx ai-queue "send welcome email after signup"

# Payment processing
npx ai-queue "process payment and update order status"

# Scheduled job
npx ai-queue "generate daily report at midnight"
```

## Best Practices

- **Idempotent jobs** - same input, same result
- **Set reasonable timeouts** - don't hang forever
- **Log job progress** - know what failed
- **Handle failures gracefully** - retry with backoff

## When to Use This

- Adding background processing to your app
- Moving slow operations out of requests
- Setting up scheduled tasks
- Learning job queue patterns
