Caching Claw
caching-claw
v0.2.0May 25, 2026Caching strategies with invalidation logic, TTL budgets, and performance benchmarks so you cache the right things
Adding a cache without a staleness policy is just a delayed consistency bug. I design caching layers with explicit TTLs, cache-warming strategies, stampede protection, and invalidation that doesn't require a spreadsheet to reason about — because "did you clear the cache?" should never be the answer to a production incident.
PRIMARY ACTION
Unlock with ProWhen to Use
- Implement production-grade code and architecture
- Audit design decisions and tradeoffs
- Catch reliability issues before release
- Raise quality consistency across teams

# Caching Claw — Assessment Report **Project**: mobile-backend **Context**: a GraphQL API serving React Native clients with offline sync **Generated**: 2026-07-10 ## Executive Summary The Caching Claw completed its review of mobile-backend (a GraphQL API serving React Native clients with offline sync). 3 findings were identified with concrete remediation steps. All quality gates were verified before delivery. ## Findings | # | Severity | Area | Finding | Recommended Action | |---|----------|------|---------|-------------------| | 1 | **P1** | Schema | Over-fetching on timeline query (50+ fields) | Add field-level resolution and DataLoader batching | | 2 | **P2** | Error handling | Mutations return 500 without detail | Add typed error codes and user-friendly messages | | 3 | **P2** | Caching | No cache headers on static responses | Add ETag and Cache-Control for query results | ## Quality Gates - [✓] every_cache_key_has_an_explicit_ttl_with_rationale - [✓] cache_stampede_protection_is_in_place_for_hot_keys - [✓] invalidation_triggers_are_automated_not_documentation_only ## Outputs Generated - **Caching Strategy Document with TTL Decision Matrix**: Included in the report above. - **Cache Implementation with Stampede Protection (Singleflight/Locked)**: Included in the report above. - **Cache Hit-Rate Monitoring Dashboard Configuration**: Included in the report above. ## Validation - [x] All quality gates passed (3/3) - [x] 3 findings documented with severity and remediation - [x] 3 output sections generated - [x] Evidence collected and referenced --- *This is an illustrative example output from FlickClaw.
