What it does

Weft API is an agent skill from WeaveMindAI/weft. Read when the program needs to answer calls from outside (an HTTP route, a websocket, anything a page or a service will call), and before briefing a frontend on what it will call: the URL known before activation, how a request's parts and body reach the graph, pictures in and out as links, streaming an answer as it is produced, holding a conversation open, who may call, and how to try it.

Its SKILL.md is about 8k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Backend & APIs, covering Realtime and WebSockets. The repository describes itself as: A programming language for AI orchestrations.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve Realtime and WebSockets

Example prompts

  • “/weft-api”

Requirements

  • Python 3

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 6e28f31. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • curl

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    Hosts in commands or code, which the agent is likely to contact:

    • weft-role-dispatcher-123456789.us-central1.run.app
    • api.shop.com

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Weft API loads about 8k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 100 tokens; SKILL.md has 5,017 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~100
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~8k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

SKILL.md

Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 5,017 words (~8,021 tokens).

“Everything here is in the api package of the catalog. You read each node's metadata.json before wiring it; when a name below drifts from it, the metadata wins. A [route] is one Route or Socket node: one trigger, and one…”
