How to keep the UI in sync with agent changes via SSE plus polling fallback.

  • Works in 5 steps: Server increments a version counter on… → Client listens for sync events and… → Templates fold per-source counters into… → …
  • Wiring query invalidation for new data models
  • SKILL.md covers Rule, Why, How It Works and Don't, plus 8 more sections

What it does

Real Time Sync is an agent skill from BuilderIO/agent-native. How to keep the UI in sync with agent changes via SSE plus polling fallback. Use when wiring query invalidation for new data models, debugging UI not updating, or understanding jitter prevention.

Its SKILL.md is about 3.7k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Backend & APIs. The repository describes itself as: A framework for building agentic apps.

When your agent uses it

  • Wiring query invalidation for new data models
  • Debugging UI not updating
  • Understanding jitter prevention

Example prompts

  • “/real-time-sync”

Workflow steps

5 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Server increments a version counter on every database write. In-process events stream through the authenticated /_agent-native/events…
  2. Client listens for sync events and updates per-source change counters
  3. Templates fold per-source counters into their query keys. This is the pattern that makes "agent writes show up without a manual refresh"…
  4. Fallback polling calls /_agent-native/poll?since=N. It polls every 2 seconds only while an agent run is in flight; otherwise it idles at…
  5. When the agent writes to the database, the version increments, SSE/polling detects it, and React Query refetches the affected queries.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit e16da0c. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are typescript).

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Real Time Sync loads about 3.7k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 53 tokens; SKILL.md has 1,543 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~53
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~3.7k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

SKILL.md

Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 1,543 words (~3,661 tokens).

“The UI stays in sync with agent/script changes through useDbSync(). In-process writes stream over /_agent-native/events first; /_agent-native/poll remains the cross-process/serverless fallback. When the agent writes to the database, the UI detects the change and updates automatically — no manual refresh…”
