Run a large refactor asynchronously

Prompt

Use claude-async to start a large background refactor across the current repository: replace all legacy logging calls with the new logger interface, return the job ID and polling method, then keep polling until completion and summarize changed files and potential risks.

Expected

Returns a job ID, progress updates, completion status, and a summary of refactor results with affected files.

Run long test suites in the background

Prompt

Start a background job with claude-async to run the full integration and end-to-end test suite without hitting a single tool-call timeout; first return the job ID, then poll periodically, and finally report failed tests, error log summaries, and fix suggestions.

Expected

Provides trackable test progress and, when finished, reports failures, log summaries, and recommended next steps.

Generate large-scale code analysis asynchronously

Prompt

Use claude-async to run a full-repository code analysis in the background: identify high-complexity modules, duplicated code, and potential performance bottlenecks. Create the job, return the job ID, poll until it finishes, and then produce a structured report.

Expected

Outputs job status and a final analysis report with issue categories, key files, and optimization recommendations.
