Functions15

directory::skills::get

Function

Fetch one filesystem-backed skill by id. Returns the raw markdown body plus id, title, description, and modified_at — same flat shape as directory::prompts::get. Accepts a bare id (e.g. "directory/skills/list") or the same id prefixed with iii://.

Request
  • idstringrequired

    Skill id (the same string returned by `directory::skills::list`, e.g. `"directory/skills/list"`). The legacy `iii://{id}` form is also accepted for ergonomics; the prefix is stripped before validation. Other URI schemes are rejected.

Response
  • bodystringrequired

    Raw markdown body (post-frontmatter) from disk.

  • descriptionstringrequired
  • idstringrequired
  • modified_atstringrequired

    File mtime as RFC 3339.

  • titlestringrequired

directory::engine::registered-triggers::list

Function

List registered trigger instances (the link rows between trigger types and target functions). Filter by trigger_type, function_id, worker, or free-text search.

Request
  • function_idstring
  • searchstring
  • trigger_typestring
  • workerstring
Response
  • registered_triggersobject[]required
    • config_summarystringrequired

      Truncated (~80 chars) JSON preview of `config` so listings stay scannable. Use `directory::registered-trigger-info` for the full payload.

    • function_idstringrequired
    • idstringrequired
    • trigger_typestringrequired
    • worker_namestring

directory::engine::workers::list

Function

List every worker currently connected to the engine. Filter by name substring, runtime, or status. Same row shape as directory::registry::workers::list so callers learn one envelope.

Request
  • runtimestring

    Exact runtime match (e.g. `"rust"`, `"node"`).

  • searchstring

    Case-insensitive substring match against `name`.

  • statusstring

    Exact status match (e.g. `"connected"`).

Response
  • workersobject[]required
    • active_invocationsinteger· uintrequiredmin 0
    • connected_at_msinteger· uint64requiredmin 0
    • descriptionstring

      Engine-side workers carry no description; field present for shape parity with `registry::Worker.description`. Always `None`.

    • function_countinteger· uintrequiredmin 0
    • idstringrequired

      Engine-assigned connection id (directory-specific).

    • ip_addressstring
    • isolationstring
    • namestring

      Worker name as registered with the engine.

    • osstring
    • runtimestring
    • statusstringrequired

      Connection state (e.g. `"connected"`, `"disconnected"`).

    • versionstring

      Worker version string from the worker's published manifest.

directory::engine::triggers::list

Function

List every trigger TYPE registered with the engine. Filter by search, prefix, worker. (For registered trigger instances, use directory::engine::registered-triggers::list.)

Request
  • prefixstring
  • searchstring

Response
  • triggersobject[]required
    • descriptionstringrequired
    • idstringrequired
    • worker_namestring

directory::skills::list

Function

List filesystem-backed skills (id, title, description, bytes, modified_at) from skills_folder. Each row carries the H1 title and first-paragraph description so consumers can render a picker or indented index without one get per row.

Request
Empty object
Response
  • skillsobject[]required
    • bytesinteger· uintrequiredmin 0
    • descriptionstringrequired

      First paragraph of the body, empty when the file has only headings.

    • idstringrequired
    • modified_atstringrequired

      File mtime as RFC 3339 (best effort; empty if unavailable).

    • titlestringrequired

      First `# H1` line in the body, falling back to `id` when absent.

directory::registry::workers::list

Function

List workers from the public registry (api.workers.iii.dev) matching the free-text term `search`. Same row shape as directory::engine::workers::list so callers learn one envelope. Results are cached for `registry_cache_ttl_ms` (default 60s).

Request
  • limitinteger· uint32min 0

    Max results to return. Defaults to 20; capped at 100.

  • searchstring

    Free-text query forwarded to the registry as `?q=…`. Required — the public registry doesn't support an unscoped browse endpoint.

  • workersobject[]required

directory::prompts::get

Function

Fetch one filesystem-backed prompt by name. Returns the raw markdown body plus name, description, and modified_at — no envelope, no templating.

Request
  • namestringrequired
Response
  • bodystringrequired

    Raw markdown body (post-frontmatter) from disk.

  • descriptionstringrequired

directory::engine::triggers::info

Function

Full detail for one trigger type: configuration schema, return schema, owning worker, and current instance count.

Request
  • idstringrequired
Response
  • configuration_schemaunknown

    SDK 0.11.3 surfaces a single `trigger_request_format` that doubles as the per-instance configuration shape; expose it explicitly so callers don't have to know the alias.

  • descriptionstringrequired
  • idstringrequired
  • instance_countinteger· uintrequiredmin 0
  • return_schemaunknown
  • worker_namestring

directory::skills::download

Function

Download skills + prompts into skills_folder. Pass {repo, skill, branch?} to clone a single skill folder from a GitHub repo (git clone --depth 1 --branch <branch>; branch defaults to "main"), or {worker, version?|tag?} to pull from the workers registry (defaults to tag="latest" when neither version nor tag is given). Files in the destination namespace are overwritten file-by-file.

Request
  • branchstring

    Source A: branch to clone. Defaults to `"main"`. Pass `"master"` (or any other branch name) for repos whose default branch is not `main`.

  • repostring

    Source A: GitHub repo URL. Pair with `skill`.

  • skillstring

    Source A: subfolder under `skills/` inside the repo. Doubles as the destination namespace inside `skills_folder`.

    Exact worker-name match (the worker that registered the function).

Response
  • functionsobject[]required
    • descriptionstring
    • function_idstringrequired
