Descripción

documentation good first issue hacktoberfest website

The server speaks protocol v1 now (#285), but the only description of it is a section of server/setup.mdx. Anyone writing their own client (a mobile app, a CLI, a different widget) needs one page that lists every part, every error code and a request they can paste into a terminal. This issue is that page.

What to do

  • New page website/src/content/docs/server/protocol.mdx, title Protocol, added to the Server sidebar in website/astro.config.mjs (lines 121 to 128), after Setup. Cover:
    • How to ask for v1: "protocol": 1 in the body, or the x-chatcops-protocol: 1 header. The response then has x-chatcops-protocol: 1. Without either, the server answers in the 0.5 format, which goes away in 1.0.
    • The request body: the fields in chatRequestSchema (packages/server/src/config.ts, lines 101 to 123) with their limits, plus protocol.
    • Every part in WirePart (packages/core/src/protocol/v1.ts, lines 50 to 99), one short paragraph or table row each, with an example line. Say which ones the server sends today (start, text-start, text-delta, text-end, tool-call, tool-result, lead-captured, error, finish) and that the others (source, handoff, agent-message, suggestions) are reserved for later features.
    • Framing: one data: <json> line per part, data: [DONE] once at the end, : ping comments after 10 s of silence, clients ignore unknown part types, and a stream without finish was cut off.
    • Errors before the stream: every status and code from packages/core/src/protocol/errors.ts, with the JSON body shape and Retry-After.
    • Errors during the stream: the error part's codes, retryable, and scope for budget_exceeded.
    • A curl example: curl -N -X POST http://localhost:3001/chat -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -d '{"protocol":1,"conversationId":"test-1","message":"Hi"}', followed by what it prints.
    • import type { WirePart } from '@chatcops/core/protocol' for TypeScript clients.
  • In website/src/content/docs/server/setup.mdx, keep the "Response format" section short: the two formats in one paragraph, and a link to the new page for the details. Move the parts list and the status table there.

Where to look

  • packages/server/src/http.ts, which does negotiation, statuses, pings and [DONE]
  • packages/server/tests/http.test.ts for real request and response examples
  • packages/core/src/protocol/ for the types and the status map

Acceptance criteria

  • New server/protocol.mdx in the sidebar, covering the points above
  • Every part and error code in v1.ts and errors.ts is on the page, and nothing that isn't
  • The curl example's output on the page is real. You don't need an API key: run the Express example (packages/server/src/examples/express-server.ts) with provider: scriptedProvider([textStep('Hello!')]) from @chatcops/core/testing/provider, and don't commit that change
  • pnpm --filter @chatcops/website build succeeds
  • Changeset: pnpm changeset --empty (docs only)
