hwc-realtime-streaming

Implement real-time Hotwire behavior: Turbo Streams over WebSocket/SSE, custom stream actions, inline stream tags, live list updates, and cross-tab state synchronization. Prefer this skill when the core problem is push-based updates or stream action orchestration. Use hwc-navigation-content for pull-based pagination/tab/lazy-navigation flows, hwc-forms-validation for form lifecycle and validation, hwc-media-content for media upload/playback behavior, hwc-ux-feedback for generic loading/progress/transitions, and hwc-stimulus-fundamentals for non-stream Stimulus fundamentals.

Real-Time & Streaming

Implement push-driven Hotwire behavior with Turbo Streams and Stimulus.

Core Workflow

  1. Identify transport and delivery shape: WebSocket, SSE, inline stream tags, or server response streams.
  2. Choose default Turbo Stream actions first; add custom actions only when defaults are insufficient.
  3. Keep stream actions small and deterministic; avoid embedding arbitrary scripts in stream payloads.
  4. Separate stream orchestration from domain UI concerns (forms, media, navigation).
  5. Verify ordering, idempotency, and multi-tab behavior for all real-time updates.

Guardrails

  • Prefer append/prepend/replace/update/remove/before/after/refresh before custom actions.
  • Keep cross-tab sync explicit (BroadcastChannel/localStorage) and scope it to same-device semantics.
  • Use view transitions only where animation meaningfully improves state-change clarity.
  • Validate failure modes for delayed/out-of-order messages.
