Cmux Custom Sidebar

Backend TypeScript and Cloud VM development rules for cmux. Use when editing web/app/api, web/services, backend scripts, Cloud VM lifecycle, provider integrations, Postgres, Stack Auth pricing gates, migrations, or provider image build scripts.

Create data pipeline and analytics architecture diagrams using PlantUML syntax with database/analytics stencil icons. Best for ETL pipelines, data lakes, real-time streaming, data warehousing, and BI dashboard design.

Use when writing Spark jobs, debugging performance issues, or configuring cluster settings for Apache Spark applications, distributed data processing pipelines, or big data workloads. Invoke to write DataFrame transformations, optimize Spark SQL queries, implement RDD pipelines, tune shuffle operations, configure executor memory, process .parquet files, handle data partitioning, or build structured streaming analytics.

Explore vague or ambitious ideas into a right-sized requirements-only unified plan. Use when the user wants to brainstorm, think through scope, decide what to build, or needs collaborative product framing before planning. Also use when the user must scope work in territory they say they do not know ("I know nothing about X but need to...") or asks for a blindspot pass — mapping the decision surface before questions begin. Not for executing already-specified work — direct implementation, debugging, or code review where no product scope is left to decide. Not for a decisive verdict on whether to adopt or switch to a specific external technology, library, or platform — brainstorming scopes what to build, not whether to commit to an outside option.

Cluster a GitHub issue backlog by root cause into a small set of plan-master issues, redirect children with a standardized comment, and bundle architectural-fix PRs that close clusters atomically. Use when an issue tracker has accumulated dozens of reports that share underlying defects, when asked to triage / consolidate / cluster / dedupe issues, when asked to build a plan series or roadmap from open issues, or when routing a new incoming bug into an existing plan.

Build direct Bluetooth Low Energy workflows with Core Bluetooth. Use when implementing BLE central or peripheral GATT communication, scanning or connecting with CBCentralManager, discovering services and characteristics, reading/writing/subscribing with CBPeripheral, publishing local services with CBPeripheralManager, handling Bluetooth authorization, background BLE modes, state restoration, write flow control, or CBUUID-based workflows. For privacy-preserving accessory setup/picker flows, use accessorysetupkit first and return here for post-setup GATT communication.
