long-polling-handler

Quick Review

This skill is a template with minimal actual content. The description mentions 'long polling handler' but provides no specifics about what long polling is, how it differs from regular polling or webhooks, implementation patterns, timeout handling, or client-server interaction flows. Task knowledge is nearly absent—no code examples, architecture patterns, or concrete steps for implementing long polling (e.g., server-side connection holding, client retry logic, heartbeat mechanisms). The structure is clear and well-organized with appropriate sections, which is its strongest aspect. Novelty is low because the skill provides no meaningful implementation guidance beyond what a CLI agent could generate from general knowledge; it doesn't reduce token cost or provide specialized expertise. To improve: add concrete long polling implementation patterns, timeout/retry strategies, code snippets for both client and server sides, and explain when to use long polling vs alternatives like WebSockets or SSE.
