What it does

Ndk Batch Event Queries is an agent skill from divinevideo/divine-mobile. Optimize Nostr relay queries using NDK batch fetching. Use when: (1) Checking existence of many events one-by-one is slow, (2) Loop with individual fetchEvents calls causing N+1 query problem, (3) Need to verify multiple addressable events (Kind 30000+) exist. NDK's fetchEvents accepts arrays for tag filters (d, p, e, authors), enabling batch queries that reduce hundreds of round-trips to a single request.

Its SKILL.md is about 1k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

The licence is MPL-2.0.

When your agent uses it

  • Checking existence of many events one-by-one is slow
  • Loop with individual fetchEvents calls causing N+1 query problem
  • Need to verify multiple addressable events (Kind 30000+) exist

Example prompts

  • “/ndk-batch-event-queries”

Workflow steps

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

  1. Array filters: #d, #p, #e, authors all accept arrays
  2. Chunk size: Use 50-100 items per query to avoid relay limits
  3. Multiple authors: Pass array of pubkeys if checking across users
  4. Extract results: Parse the d-tag from returned events to build a Set

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 6487b05. 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

    Links to these hosts (documentation or services it may open):

    • github.com
    • nostr-dev-kit.github.io
    • nostrbook.dev

    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

Ndk Batch Event Queries loads about 1k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 109 tokens; SKILL.md has 225 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~109
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1k

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.

NDK Batch Event Queries

Problem

When checking if many Nostr events exist (e.g., 300 videos for a user), querying one-by-one causes hundreds of sequential relay round-trips, making the operation extremely slow (minutes instead of seconds).

Context / Trigger Conditions

  • Loop with await fetchEvents() inside, checking events individually
  • Processing takes minutes when it should take seconds
  • Checking existence of addressable events (Kind 30000-39999) by d-tag
  • Need to find which items from a list already exist on a relay

Solution

NDK's fetchEvents filter accepts arrays for most fields. Instead of:

typescript
// SLOW: 300 sequential queries
for (const id of vineIds) {
  const exists = await ndk.fetchEvents({
    kinds: [34236],
    authors: [pubkey],
    "#d": [id],  // Single value
  });
}

Use a batch query:

typescript
// FAST: 1-3 queries (chunked if needed)
const CHUNK_SIZE = 100;  // Relays may limit query size
const existingIds = new Set<string>();

for (let i = 0; i < vineIds.length; i += CHUNK_SIZE) {
  const chunk = vineIds.slice(i, i + CHUNK_SIZE);
  const events = await ndk.fetchEvents({
    kinds: [34236],
    authors: pubkeys,  // Can also be an array
    "#d": chunk,       // Array of d-tag values
  });

  for (const event of events) {
    const dTag = event.tags.find(t => t[0] === "d");
    if (dTag?.[1]) existingIds.add(dTag[1]);
  }
}

// O(1) lookup in processing loop
for (const id of vineIds) {
  if (existingIds.has(id)) continue;  // Skip existing
  // Process new items...
}
Key Points
  1. Array filters: #d, #p, #e, authors all accept arrays
  2. Chunk size: Use 50-100 items per query to avoid relay limits
  3. Multiple authors: Pass array of pubkeys if checking across users
  4. Extract results: Parse the d-tag from returned events to build a Set

Verification

  • Processing time drops from minutes to seconds
  • Total relay connections decrease dramatically
  • Same results as individual queries (verified by comparison)

Example

Real-world application - checking 294 videos across 2 pubkeys:

typescript
async videosExistBatch(pubkeys: string[], vineIds: string[]): Promise<Set<string>> {
  await this.connect();
  const existingIds = new Set<string>();
  const CHUNK_SIZE = 100;

  for (let i = 0; i < vineIds.length; i += CHUNK_SIZE) {
    const chunk = vineIds.slice(i, i + CHUNK_SIZE);
    const events = await this.ndk.fetchEvents({
      kinds: [34236],
      authors: pubkeys,
      "#d": chunk,
    });

    for (const event of events) {
      const dTag = event.tags.find((t) => t[0] === "d");
      if (dTag && dTag[1]) {
        existingIds.add(dTag[1]);
      }
    }
  }

  return existingIds;
}

Usage:

typescript
const vineIds = vines.map(v => v.vine_id);
const existingVineIds = await relay.videosExistBatch([pubkey, oldPubkey], vineIds);
console.log(`Found ${existingVineIds.size}/${vineIds.length} already on relay`);

Notes

  • Some relays may have stricter limits on query size; adjust CHUNK_SIZE accordingly
  • The buffered queries feature in NDK can also help with component-level batching
  • For very large sets, consider parallel chunk requests with Promise.all
  • This pattern works for any tag-based lookup, not just #d tags
