Research: netlify-functions
Cached research evidence for netlify-functions (not authority).
Purpose
Section titled “Purpose”Guide for writing Netlify serverless functions. Use when creating API endpoints, background processing, scheduled tasks, or server-side logic. Covers modern default export + Config syntax (TS/JS), path routing, method routing, background (-background suffix, 15min), scheduled (cron), streaming responses, Context object (geo, ip, cookies, params), Netlify.env, resource limits (60s sync, 1024MB), framework considerations.
Harness Coverage
Section titled “Harness Coverage”Target agents: antigravity, claude-code, codex, crush, cursor, gemini-cli, github-copilot, grok, opencode.
Trust And Risks
Section titled “Trust And Risks”trust_tier=needs-inspection; status=inspect-then-install; provenance=verified-install-command. Web: Official Netlify bundle, MIT, reference-only SKILL.md + references/. Functions run in Netlify runtime post-deploy; skill itself is static guidance.
