Work with a coding agent

This documentation is rendered into agent skills: directories a coding agent loads on demand, each with a SKILL.md saying when to use it and the pages it carries as reference files. They are published as the ankka-flow plugin of the ankka marketplace, beside ankka's own plugin, so an agent building a pipeline next to an ankka service can hold both.

Install the plugin

In Claude Code, add the marketplace once and install the plugin:

/plugin marketplace add thinkmorestupidless/ankka-marketplace
/plugin install ankka-flow@ankka

The plugin's version is the ankka-flow release whose documentation it carries.

The skills

Skill	Load it when the task is
ankka-flow	designing a pipeline, writing a blueprint, deciding between an ankka consumer and a flow, or anything else about how ankka-flow behaves
ankka-flow-python	a streamlet in Python: its code, its tests with the Harness, its descriptor, its image, running it on a laptop
ankka-flow-deploy	installing the platform, flow verify, flow generate, flow reset, the AnkkaFlow resource, the operator, lag, stalls and a pipeline that is not Ready
ankka-flow-protocol	implementing the streamlet protocol in a language with no SDK, or debugging what a process sends the sidecar

Each skill's body holds the rules an agent must keep for that task, the questions to settle before writing, and the mistakes to check for. The pages under references/ are the same Markdown as this site, so a correction made here reaches the skills at the next release.

Without the plugin

llms.txt at the site root lists every page with a one-sentence description, and llms-full.txt holds the whole documentation in one file. Each page is served as Markdown at its own path with a .md suffix, so https://flow.ankka.cloud/concepts/sidecar.md is the Markdown of The sidecar. docs-index.json lists every page with its title, description, kind and headings, for a tool that wants to choose pages itself.
