# Skald Connector Authoring Guide
|
||||
|
||||
Instructions for generating a **correct connector** for the Skald marketplace
|
||||
(`https://connectors.skaldagent.net`). Give this file to the agent that produces
|
||||
new connectors.
|
||||
|
||||
A connector is a folder served by the marketplace. Skald installs it, verifies
|
||||
every file against a SHA-256 pinned in the index, then either runs it on the host
|
||||
(global connector) or copies it into the user's container and runs it there
|
||||
(per-user connector, blueprint §6/§7).
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## 1. The two documents
|
||||
|
||||
### 1a. The root index — `connectors.json`
|
||||
|
||||
One array of entries, each pointing at a connector folder. **The index is the
|
||||
signable root: it is the only place that lists a connector's files and their
|
||||
SHA-256 digests.** Skald refuses any file whose bytes do not match.
|
||||
|
||||
```jsonc
|
||||
{
|
||||
"version": 1,
|
||||
"connectors": [
|
||||
{
|
||||
"id": "whatsapp", // unique slug = folder name
|
||||
"name": "WhatsApp",
|
||||
"version": 1, // INTEGER build number — the update key (§7)
|
||||
"version_string": "2.0.1", // semver, display only
|
||||
"version_release_date": "2026-07-19", // ISO date, display only
|
||||
"type": "mcp_local", // mcp_local | mcp_remote (see §3)
|
||||
"scope": "user", // user | global (see §3)
|
||||
"icon_small": "whatsapp/icon_sm.svg",
|
||||
"icon_large": "whatsapp/icon_lg.svg",
|
||||
"user_description": "Send and read WhatsApp messages from your linked account.",
|
||||
"requires": ["NODE"], // human hint: NODE | PYTHON | OAUTH | API_KEY
|
||||
"tags": ["messaging", "mcp", "local", "whatsapp", "qr"],
|
||||
"auth": { "type": "qr" }, // may be repeated here and in the manifest
|
||||
"tools": [ // OPTIONAL — friendly UI names per tool (§2a)
|
||||
{ "name": "send_message", "display_name": "Send Message" }
|
||||
],
|
||||
"folder": "whatsapp", // defaults to id
|
||||
"files": [
|
||||
{ "path": "index.js", "sha256": "…", "size": 21258 },
|
||||
{ "path": "package.json", "sha256": "…", "size": 302 },
|
||||
{ "path": "connector.json", "sha256": "…", "size": 620 },
|
||||
{ "path": "icon_sm.svg", "sha256": "…", "size": 306 },
|
||||
{ "path": "icon_lg.svg", "sha256": "…", "size": 308 }
|
||||
]
|
||||
}
|
||||
]
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Rules**
|
||||
|
||||
- `files[].path` is relative to the connector folder. List **every** file the
|
||||
connector ships (server code, `package.json`/`requirements.txt`, icons, and the
|
||||
`connector.json` itself). A missing or mismatched digest fails the install.
|
||||
- Compute `sha256` over the exact bytes served: `sha256sum <file>`.
|
||||
- Do **not** list `node_modules/` or any generated deps — those are installed on
|
||||
the box, not shipped (see §5).
|
||||
- `size` is optional but recommended.
|
||||
- `tools[]` is optional but, when present in the manifest, should also be listed here
|
||||
so that the index is self-contained (the index is the only document Skald downloads
|
||||
eagerly — metadata UIs that need friendly tool names look here first, §2a).
|
||||
Structure: `{ "name": "<raw>", "display_name": "<friendly>" }`.
|
||||
|
||||
### 1b. The per-connector manifest — `<folder>/connector.json`
|
||||
|
||||
The richer document. Fetched per connector and mapped into Skald's catalog.
|
||||
|
||||
```jsonc
|
||||
{
|
||||
"id": "whatsapp",
|
||||
"name": "WhatsApp",
|
||||
"version": 1, // INTEGER build number — the update key (§7)
|
||||
"version_string": "2.0.1", // semver, display only
|
||||
"version_release_date": "2026-07-19", // ISO date, display only
|
||||
"type": "mcp_local",
|
||||
"scope": "user",
|
||||
"auth": { "type": "qr" }, // none | api_key | oauth2 | qr (see §4)
|
||||
"mcp_config": {
|
||||
"command": "node", // interpreter (local) …
|
||||
"args": ["index.js"], // … args[0] MUST name the entry file
|
||||
"transport": "stdio" // stdio (local) | streamable-http (remote)
|
||||
},
|
||||
"docs": [{
|
||||
"lang": "en",
|
||||
"description": "Human blurb shown in the UI.",
|
||||
"llm_short_description": "One line the model reads to decide whether to use this connector."
|
||||
}],
|
||||
"env": [], // form fields the user fills (see §4b)
|
||||
"tools": [ // OPTIONAL — friendly UI names per tool (§2a)
|
||||
{ "name": "send_message", "display_name": "Send Message" }
|
||||
],
|
||||
"homepage": "https://…",
|
||||
"icon_small": "icon_sm.svg", // relative to the folder here
|
||||
"icon_large": "icon_lg.svg",
|
||||
"tags": ["messaging", "mcp", "local", "whatsapp", "qr"]
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**`mcp_config.args[0]` is load-bearing for a local connector:** it is how Skald
|
||||
learns which file to run. At activation Skald rewrites it to the file's path
|
||||
inside the user's container (`/root/.skald/mcp/<name>/<entry>`), so keep it a
|
||||
plain relative filename (`index.js`, `server.py`, `pkg/server.py`).
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## 2. Server contract (MCP over stdio)
|
||||
|
||||
A **local** connector is a program speaking JSON-RPC 2.0 over stdin/stdout. It
|
||||
MUST handle:
|
||||
|
||||
- `initialize` → `{ protocolVersion, capabilities: { tools: {} }, serverInfo }`
|
||||
- `notifications/initialized` → no response
|
||||
- `tools/list` → `{ tools: [ { name, description, inputSchema } ] }`
|
||||
- `tools/call` → `{ content: [ { type: "text", text } ], isError? }`
|
||||
|
||||
**stdout is reserved for JSON-RPC only.** Send all logs/diagnostics to **stderr**.
|
||||
Anything a library prints to stdout (a logger, a banner) corrupts the protocol —
|
||||
silence it (e.g. Baileys/pino → a silent logger; Python → `print(…, file=sys.stderr)`).
|
||||
|
||||
A **remote** connector is an HTTP MCP endpoint (`mcp_config.url` +
|
||||
`transport: "streamable-http"`); no code runs on the box.
|
||||
|
||||
### 2a. Friendly tool names (`tools[]`) — optional
|
||||
|
||||
Raw MCP tool names are ugly in the chat UI (`search_files`, `send_message`). The
|
||||
optional top-level `tools[]` block gives each one a human title shown as the tool
|
||||
card's heading:
|
||||
|
||||
```jsonc
|
||||
"tools": [
|
||||
{ "name": "send_message", "display_name": "Send Message" },
|
||||
{ "name": "list_chats", "display_name": "List Chats" },
|
||||
{ "name": "download_media", "display_name": "Download Media" }
|
||||
]
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
- `name` — the **raw** tool name exactly as your server returns it from `tools/list`.
|
||||
- `display_name` — the friendly card title (English only; not internationalized).
|
||||
|
||||
**Resolution order** for a tool's card title is **`tools[].display_name` → the MCP
|
||||
`title` field → a prettified raw name**. So you have two ways to set a friendly
|
||||
name, and can skip `tools[]` entirely:
|
||||
|
||||
1. **This block** — the authoritative override, curated in the manifest.
|
||||
2. **The MCP `title` field** — if your `tools/list` entries already carry a
|
||||
`title` (MCP 2025-06-18+), Skald uses it automatically; no manifest change
|
||||
needed. `tools[]` wins if both are present.
|
||||
3. If neither is set, Skald title-cases the raw name (`send_message` → "Send
|
||||
Message").
|
||||
|
||||
**Icons are per connector, not per tool.** Every tool of a connector shows that
|
||||
connector's own `icon_small`; there is no per-tool icon field. Only list a tool in
|
||||
`tools[]` when its prettified name isn't good enough — partial lists are fine
|
||||
(unlisted tools fall through to steps 2–3).

||||

## 3. Placement & risk vocabulary (what the words mean)
|
||||
|
||||
| Manifest | Meaning |
|
||||
| --- | --- |
|
||||
| `scope: "user"` | runs **once per user**, inside their container. Personal creds. |
|
||||
| `scope: "global"` | runs **once for the household**, on the host. Shared, stateless. Admin enables it with a key. |
|
||||
| `type: "mcp_local"` | ships code that will **execute on the box** — installing needs the admin `mcp.register_local_script` capability (RCE-bearing act, §14). |
|
||||
| `type: "mcp_remote"` | just an HTTP URL; no local code. |
|
||||
|
||||
Pick the narrowest: a personal messaging/email/calendar connector is
|
||||
`scope: "user"`; a shared search API is `scope: "global"`.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## 4. Authentication (`auth.type`)
|
||||
|
||||
| `auth.type` | Flow | Ships |
|
||||
| --- | --- | --- |
|
||||
| `none` | nothing to sign in | — |
|
||||
| `api_key` | user pastes a key/secret into a form | an `env[]` schema (§4b) |
|
||||
| `oauth2` | browser consent → paste code back | `auth.provider` + `auth.scopes` + `auth.deliver` (§4c) |
|
||||
| `qr` | server shows a QR, user scans with a phone | a `login_status` tool (§4d) |
|
||||
|
||||
### 4b. `api_key` — the `env[]` schema
|
||||
|
||||
Each entry drives one form field **and** is injected as an env var / URL token to
|
||||
the server:
|
||||
|
||||
```jsonc
|
||||
"env": [{
|
||||
"name": "tavilyApiKey",
|
||||
"label": "Tavily API key",
|
||||
"description": "Create one at https://app.tavily.com.",
|
||||
"required": true,
|
||||
"secret": true, // rendered masked, stored encrypted
|
||||
"example": "tvly-xxxxxxxx"
|
||||
}]
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
The server reads each value from `process.env.<name>` (or `os.environ`). For a
|
||||
**remote** connector that wants the key in the URL, use a placeholder:
|
||||
`"url": "https://mcp.example.com/?key={SECRET:tavilyApiKey}"`.
|
||||
|
||||
### 4c. `oauth2` — provider consent
|
||||
|
||||
```jsonc
|
||||
"auth": {
|
||||
"type": "oauth2",
|
||||
"provider": "google", // slug into the admin's sign-in providers
|
||||
"scopes": ["https://www.googleapis.com/auth/gmail.modify"],
|
||||
"deliver": { "as": "env", "format": "google_authorized_user", "env": "GMAIL_CREDS_JSON" }
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
The manifest names **only** the provider slug, scopes, and how the obtained token
|
||||
is delivered — never client secrets or endpoint URLs (those are admin-entered,
|
||||
kept off the public feed). Skald handles PKCE + code exchange and injects the
|
||||
credential as the named env var. `format`: `google_authorized_user` (Google) or
|
||||
`refresh_token`. Today only `as: "env"` is wired.
|
||||
|
||||
### 4d. `qr` / interactive device login — the generic contract
|
||||
|
||||
For a connector whose credential is produced by **scanning/pairing** (WhatsApp
|
||||
today), there is no code to paste. The rule:
|
||||
|
||||
> **Expose one extra tool, `login_status`, returning a JSON object** (as the
|
||||
> `text` of a normal text result). Skald calls it directly (never the agent) and a
|
||||
> login panel polls it.
|
||||
|
||||
```jsonc
|
||||
// login_status result text (a JSON string):
|
||||
{
|
||||
"state": "connecting" | "need_scan" | "ready" | "logged_out",
|
||||
"qr": "data:image/png;base64,…", // present ONLY while state == need_scan
|
||||
"message": "human-readable line"
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
- `activate` on a `qr` connector inserts a **pending** row and **starts the
|
||||
server** (so it can produce the QR), then hands off to the login panel.
|
||||
- The panel polls `POST /api/mcp/login/status`; when `state == "ready"` the
|
||||
connector is marked ready and starts automatically on later logins.
|
||||
- Also expose a `logout` tool (clears the session, forces a fresh QR) — the panel
|
||||
calls it via `POST /api/mcp/login/reset` to re-link a different phone.
|
||||
- The **credential is the on-disk session**, not a token. Persist it **inside the
|
||||
connector's own directory** (e.g. `./auth/` next to the entry file). That folder
|
||||
lives under the bind-mounted home, so it survives container recreates and
|
||||
connector updates. Never store it under a shared/global path.
|
||||
|
||||
Skald resolves `auth.type: "qr"` the same way whether it appears in the index
|
||||
entry or the manifest.
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## 5. Dependencies (node & python) — how they get installed
|
||||
|
||||
**Do not ship `node_modules/` or vendored wheels.** Declare deps as a standard
|
||||
manifest **file** and Skald installs them inside the container:
|
||||
|
||||
- **node:** ship a `package.json` with a `dependencies` map. Skald runs
|
||||
`npm ci --omit=dev` (falling back to `npm install --omit=dev`) in the connector
|
||||
dir. `node_modules/` resolves automatically beside the entry file.
|
||||
- **python:** ship a `requirements.txt`. Skald installs it with
|
||||
`pip install --target .pydeps` and puts `.pydeps` on the server's `PYTHONPATH`.
|
||||
|
||||
This runs at activation **and** on every startup, guarded by a **content hash** of
|
||||
the connector's source files:
|
||||
|
||||
- first activation / a brand-new container → full install,
|
||||
- a connector **update** (any shipped file changed) → re-copy + re-install,
|
||||
- unchanged → skipped in microseconds.
|
||||
|
||||
So you never write install steps into the manifest — just ship the dep file, list
|
||||
it in the index with its SHA-256, and set `requires: ["NODE"]` / `["PYTHON"]` as a
|
||||
human hint. Pin versions in `package.json` / `requirements.txt` for reproducible
|
||||
installs. Keep the dep tree lean (containers are slim; avoid native-heavy
|
||||
packages where a pure alternative exists — e.g. Baileys instead of a browser).
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## 6. Verify-before-save (optional but recommended)
|
||||
|
||||
Ship a `verify.py` / verify snippet and reference it:
|
||||
|
||||
```jsonc
|
||||
"verify": { "command": "python3 verify.py", "timeout_secs": 15 }
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
It runs with the collected env/secret injected and must print **one JSON object**
|
||||
on stdout: `{"ok": bool, "message": string, "details"?: object}`, exit 0 on
|
||||
success. Used for `api_key`/`none` connectors to test creds before activating.
|
||||
(A `qr` connector needs no verify — its `login_status` is the live check.)
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## 7. Versioning & updates
|
||||
|
||||
Three fields, in **both** the index entry and the `connector.json`, kept identical:
|
||||
|
||||
| field | type | role |
|
||||
| --- | --- | --- |
|
||||
| `version` | **integer** | monotonic build number, **per connector** — the machine comparison key |
|
||||
| `version_string` | string (semver) | display only |
|
||||
| `version_release_date` | ISO date `YYYY-MM-DD` | display only |
|
||||
|
||||
- `version` is a **number, not a string** (`1`, not `"1"` or `"2.0.1"`). Start at
|
||||
`1` for the first release under this scheme; **`+1` on every change** to any
|
||||
shipped file. Never reuse or decrement.
|
||||
- Skald stores the installed `version` and compares it to the feed's: a strictly
|
||||
greater feed `version` shows **"update available"** in the marketplace, and the
|
||||
Install button becomes **Update**. Clicking it re-downloads the files and users
|
||||
pick up the new code + deps on their next login.
|
||||
- **The integer is the UI "is there an update?" signal — the actual re-install
|
||||
trigger is the content-hash (§5).** So an update still propagates even if the
|
||||
number is not bumped; but always bump it, or the admin never sees the update.
|
||||
- `version_string` and `version_release_date` are display metadata only — never
|
||||
compared. (Migration note: replace any legacy string `"version": "2.0.1"` with
|
||||
the integer `version` + `version_string`.)

## 8. Checklist for a new connector
|
||||
|
||||
1. Folder `myconn/` with: entry file, `connector.json`, deps file
|
||||
(`package.json`/`requirements.txt`), `icon_sm.svg`, `icon_lg.svg`,
|
||||
optional `verify.*`.
|
||||
2. Server speaks MCP over stdio (§2); **stdout = JSON-RPC only**.
|
||||
3. `mcp_config.args[0]` names the entry file.
|
||||
4. Correct `type` + `scope` (§3) and `auth.type` (§4).
|
||||
5. For `qr`: implement `login_status` (+ `logout`), persist the session under the
|
||||
connector dir (§4d).
|
||||
6. Deps declared as a file, **not** vendored (§5).
|
||||
7. Add the entry to `connectors.json` with a correct `sha256` for **every** file.
|
||||
8. Bump `version`.
