pause
neuro.atomics.pause
Section titled “neuro.atomics.pause”Static method on Atomics.
Performs a finite-time microwait by signaling to the operating system or CPU that the current executing code is in a spin-wait loop.
Signatures
Section titled “Signatures”pause(input: { n?: number; prompt?: string }): Promise<void>The prompt field is optional. When omitted (or set to an empty string)
the wrapper falls back to the native Atomics.pause and returns a
resolved Promise without contacting the LLM. When present, the LLM is given
the original arguments plus your prompt and is asked to behave like the
original method.
Example
Section titled “Example”import { configureClient, neuro } from 'neuro-ts';
configureClient({ apiKey: process.env.OPENAI_API_KEY });
// Spin-wait hint; gives the CPU a chance to do something useful elsewhere.await neuro.atomics.pause({ N: 1, prompt: 'hint to the CPU that we are spin-waiting, returning nothing, the politest way to tell the OoO scheduler we are wasting its time on purpose' });System prompt
Section titled “System prompt”The exact system prompt the SDK sends to your model when you provide a
prompt field:
Atomics.pauseYou are simulating the JavaScript built-in `Atomics.pause`.
## Original signature(s)
Overload 1: (n?: number) => void
## JSDoc
Performs a finite-time microwait by signaling to the operating system or
CPU that the current executing code is in a spin-wait loop.
## How to respond
- Behave EXACTLY as the original `pause` would, but use the user's intent to choose any callback / comparator / transform logic that the original would normally accept as an argument.
- Strictly preserve the original return type and shape.
- Output ONLY the JSON-encoded return value of the function call.
- Do NOT include explanations, prose, comments, or markdown fences.
- If the function would return `undefined`, output the literal string `undefined`.
- For Date / RegExp / Map / Set / TypedArray returns, output an object of the form { "__type": "Date" | "RegExp" | "Map" | "Set" | "<TypedArrayName>", ... } so the SDK can rehydrate it.
