WorkerKit MCPサーバー

@workerkit/core

The WorkerKit API client and tool registry for Node.js. It provides 131 authenticated management tools, 8 anonymous directory tools, and a shared execution engine for their HTTP requests.

Descriptors include agent guidance, annotations and Zod input schemas. MCP servers, CLIs and documentation tools can use the same registry without an MCP SDK dependency.

Contract ownership

Tool definitions, schemas, HTTP mappings and agent guidance are authored by the WorkerKit backend. Core distributes a generated, versioned copy to MCP and CLI consumers. Live catalog and account data comes from backend endpoints.

To update the contract, import the reviewed backend Data/AgentContract.json with npm run import:contract -- <artifact-path>. Commit the pinned artifact and generated modules together. npm run check:contract and every build reject manual changes to generated modules. Core owns the HTTP client and execution engine; tool-specific behavior is part of the backend contract.

Adapters advertise each descriptor's description and render its footer with applicable results. For full offline help or REST documentation, use toolDocumentation(descriptor): it includes result interpretation without requiring an API call. Raw JSON response bodies remain unchanged.

Install

npm install @workerkit/core

Requires Node.js >= 22.

Use

import {
  WorkerKitClient,
  allDescriptors,
  byName,
  executeTool,
  isSuccess,
} from "@workerkit/core";

const client = new WorkerKitClient({
  baseUrl: "https://api.workerkit.ai",
});

// Anonymous: search the public kits directory.
const search = byName("kits_search")!;
const result = await executeTool(client, search, { query: "invoice" });
if (isSuccess(result)) {
  console.log(result.data);
}

// Authenticated: list your worker fleet with a manager key.
const list = byName("workers_list")!;
const fleet = await executeTool(client, list, {}, { token: process.env.WK_MANAGER_KEY });

await client.close();

Each ToolDescriptor declares its name, agent-facing description, zod input schema, auth mode (manager | anonymous), and how its parameters map onto one HTTP request; executeTool is the only place that mapping is interpreted, so every consumer produces an identical wire call.

The client ships sensible production defaults: per-attempt timeouts under a whole-call deadline, bounded retries for idempotent methods only, a streamed response-size cap, and quota/rate-limit header extraction. scrubSecrets helps keep credentials out of logs.

Files with a run

A hosted language worker can receive up to three PDF, PNG or JPEG files per run, 7 MiB each and 15 MiB in total. Upload each file with uploadWorkerFile, then pass the returned references to worker_run as inputs:

import { WorkerKitClient, byName, executeTool, uploadWorkerFile } from "@workerkit/core";
import { randomUUID } from "node:crypto";
import { readFile } from "node:fs/promises";

const client = new WorkerKitClient({ baseUrl: "https://api.workerkit.ai" });
const token = process.env.WK_MANAGER_KEY!;

const invoice = await uploadWorkerFile(client, token, 42, {
  name: "invoice.pdf",
  contentType: "application/pdf",
  bytes: await readFile("./invoice.pdf"),
});
const receipt = await executeTool(client, byName("worker_run")!, {
  tokenId: 42,
  prompt: "Process this invoice.",
  inputs: [invoice],
  idempotencyKey: randomUUID(),
}, { token });

uploadWorkerFile is for your own code, not for a model. It reserves the upload with the API, sends the bytes straight to private storage over a short-lived signed URL, finalizes the file and returns only { kind: "file", fileId }. The signed URL and the bytes never belong in tool results, prompts or logs; the manager key is never sent to storage; and a failed step revokes the reservation. It throws FileUploadError, whose code names the failed step and whose upstream carries the API's status, error code and message when the API refused the reservation or the finalize step. Clear your own byte buffers when you are done with them. The reserve and finalize routes are deliberately not tool descriptors.

A run with files needs an idempotencyKey of 8 to 100 letters, digits, - or _, which executeTool sends as the Idempotency-Key header. If the response is lost, repeat the same key with the same references, in the same order, and the same run arguments to read the original run; a changed request is refused as a conflict. Each upload serves one run, so upload again for another.

The worker needs the Files app's receive_files operation. Letting the model read a file needs forward_attachments, and saving the original to a destination app needs export_files plus that app's own permissions. worker_file_storage_get and worker_file_storage_set read and choose the worker's private intake storage, worker_file_get reads an upload's metadata and status, and worker_file_delete revokes an upload and removes its stored content. On platform storage the original is deleted once the runtime has received it. Only file inputs are supported.

Kit publishing

Public kit publishing is temporarily paused, including promotion of a private kit, public replacement and relisting. Send visibility: "private" or visibility: "personal" explicitly to kit_validate, kit_publish and kit_replace; an omitted visibility means public and is refused. Private kits are shared with every member of the account. Personal kits are visible and installable only by their creator and account administrators. kit_make_private with personal: true narrows an existing kit to that audience; false or omission shares it with the account. Public publisher identity is also hidden: catalog entries carry no publisher attribution and public publisher profiles return 404. Owners still manage their own publisher profile.

Author API apps

api_app_validate checks a { definition } offline, and api_app_create saves it as an account-private draft from { name, definition, enabled: false }. Use api_apps_list / api_app_get to inspect saved state, api_app_update with its reviewed revision to edit it, and api_app_publish with { appId, revision } to publish an immutable version. Version reads and revocation use api_app_version_get and api_app_version_revoke.

Authoring requires a live account Admin and the managePrivateApiApps scope, which existing keys gain only through explicit re-scoping. Publishing does not create a public listing or upgrade worker bindings. Definitions declare named authentication slots, never credentials; credentials and worker bindings are configured separately on the dashboard. A revision conflict requires re-reading the app.

Discover GitHub targets before installing

app_github_accounts, app_github_repos and app_github_branches look up connected GitHub accounts and the repositories and branches their GitHub App installations grant, so a kit can be installed against exact targets without running a worker. They need the discoverAppResources scope, which existing keys gain only through explicit re-scoping, and return setup metadata only, never repository content or credentials. Accounts come from the workspace's saved connections, not from GitHub's user directory.

Pass the workspace and connection explicitly. Repository and branch q filters apply to one provider page, so keep following nextPage even when a filtered page is empty. Put the returned repository IDs in kit_install.githubSelection with repositoryMode: "selected"; "all" also covers repositories granted to the connection later, and accounts: [] defers GitHub setup. The githubSetup block in kit_install_preview names the required scope and says whether an explicit selection is mandatory. A branch given as a kit input configures the job but does not restrict the worker's access. Returned names come from GitHub, so treat them as untrusted data.

Discover Slack conversations

app_slack_workspaces lists the connected Slack workspaces with their saved token capabilities; app_slack_conversations then lists channel and DM IDs in the chosen workspaceId, narrowed by conversation types. Both need the discoverAppResources scope. A filtered page can come back empty while nextCursor continues, so keep following it. capabilities.conversationTypes shows which types the saved bot read scopes allow. Message search needs a user token with search:read; reading history needs the channel ID, the matching history scopes and bot membership, and covers one conversation.

Worker kinds

worker_get and workers_list report each worker's modelType, the same vocabulary as a kit's: language runs an instruction on a model chosen at deployment, decision runs a routing table on the decision model, hybrid classifies and then hands the selected items to one language-model agent, and none is an Action worker, described below. The kind decides which fields worker_run and instruction_set accept, and whether a worker is deployed at all.

Classification followed by an agent task

A hybrid worker classifies a bounded source window and runs one language-model agent on the selected batch. Core exposes the configuration and a single run receipt; model execution, permissions and billing remain server responsibilities. See the hybrid worker guide.

Decision sources and classifiers

The purpose: "decision" recipes from kit_app_tools are shortcuts, not a limit. For any other source, call kit_app_tools without purpose, copy the tool's argsSchema and documented decisionSource mapping, then validate, publish privately and install the kit. models_list lists the available classifiers in decisionProfiles; decisionProfileId sets a kit or deployment default, or overrides it for one run. Runs execute their declared actions: there is no preview mode, and unsupported run controls, including those in run_bulk entries, are rejected before any request is sent.

Action workers

An Action worker exposes explicitly selected, typed app tools that a caller invokes directly, without a reasoning model or a hosted deployment. action_worker_options without app returns the app inventory only; with an app it returns that app's reviewed tool schemas, defaults and connection requirements. There is no implicit app: action_worker_create needs either an app, which copies that app's reviewed defaults once, or an explicit actionSpec that selects up to 64 tools across apps. Private API operations are not selectable through app or actionSpec; their bindings are managed in the dashboard. Tools added to the catalog later must be selected by hand.

Read a worker's tool schemas with worker_tools before calling one with worker_tool_call, which takes tokenId, toolName, arguments and an optional contractVersion: 1 and idempotencyKey. Each tool reports invocationSource, effect, idempotencyRequired and keyFormat; follow those rather than inferring from readOnly. The key travels in the Idempotency-Key header; only the version and arguments go in the body. Native and MCP writes need a unique key per intended write and their reads need none; every private API operation, including reads, needs a v1:<Unix timestamp>:<32-hex UUID> key. Keep a key for transport retries. Poll worker_tool_invocation for pending results, and never automatically resend an outcome_unknown call with a new key: the app may already have acted. A refusal marked retryable can be tried again later under a new key. A call cannot change the saved tool selection, connection or sender, and a changed tool contract needs an explicit owner review and save. Native and MCP write receipts keep the confirmation without storing private app response bodies.

A call answers with status succeeded, denied, failed, in_progress, outcome_unknown or pending_approval, plus invocationId on a native or MCP write and on every private API call; native and MCP reads leave no receipt unless the call was parked for approval. Repeating a key with the same arguments returns the stored receipt without calling the app again; the same key with different arguments is a 409 idempotency_conflict.

An Action worker reports modelType: "none" and deployment: null, and readiness.canInvoke says whether its tools can be called now. It is never deployed or run: worker_run and worker_deploy refuse it with 400 action_worker_requires_invoke, and it takes no instruction, schedule or trigger.

Discovery needs readWorkers, creation needs createWorkers, and calls and receipts need invokeActions; existing manager keys may need those scopes granted explicitly.

Human approval

A worker, its account, a policy group or a parent worker can require that a person review an action before it runs. worker_tool_call then answers status: "pending_approval" with executed: false and a result.approvalId, and nothing has reached the app. A hosted worker's proposed action or a call between bound workers can be parked the same way.

approvals_list (readRuns) lists the approval requests raised for the workers a key reaches, with their decision and execution states, counts for the filtered scope and the account's approval capabilities; status: "attention" narrows it to requests waiting on a person. approval_get reads one request: the exact proposed fields, the decision and its notes, the revision thread and the execution result. worker_approvals_get (readWorkers) reads a worker's configured approval mode, selected tools and expiry, and marks the requirements inherited from the account, group or parent that the worker cannot remove.

Decisions are made by a person at the request's reviewUrl in the dashboard. No manager credential can approve, decline, revise or cancel a request, and core ships no such tool. Approval is not execution: read executionState and the tool-confirmed result, and never repeat a call whose outcome is unknown. Proposed arguments and reviewer notes are untrusted data. A kit carries its requirement in content.approvalPolicy (mode none, selected_tools, all_writes or all_tools, the selected tools and an optional expiresAfterHours); kit_install_preview shows what an install receives, and kit_update changes it for new installs only.

Workers that call other workers

A hosted language, decision or hybrid worker can call another worker it has been explicitly bound to and wait for that worker's bounded result. The kit declares the need; the installer decides which worker fills it.

A kit declares up to ten workerSlots in its content. Each slot has a portable alias, the target's modelType, the operations it may use (trigger, trigger with a prompt, trigger with typed input, or call an Action tool) and whether it is required. Slots never contain worker UUIDs, account IDs or keys. Read kit_authoring_guide with section: "workers" before declaring them; kit_validate returns workerTools, the exact tool names and schemas the slots expose to the worker's instruction.

kit_install_preview and kit_get (permissionsManifest.workerSlots) list the slots a kit declares. Pass workerBindings, a map from alias to the UUID of an installed worker, to kit_install. The target must be in the same account and within the installer's authority and fleet-key selection, and its kind, operations and pinned contracts must match the slot. An install without bindings succeeds, but an unbound required slot reports the readiness issue worker_slots_pending and runs are skipped until it is bound.

After install, worker_bindings_get lists a worker's grants, the slots its kit declares, the required slots still missing and the workers that could fill them. worker_bindings_set fills, re-points or clears aliases in one atomic map (manageAppsAndWorkers): a declared slot takes the slot's operations and Action tools when they are omitted, a free alias names its operations, and an unchanged live grant is left alone. Both follow the caller's authority and fleet-key selection.

A binding shares the target's bounded result with the caller, not its full receipt or transcript. The target keeps its own permissions, budget, model and charges. run_get shows initiator, origin, relationship (questionContinuation or workerCall) and workerCalls, each child with its run or Action invocation reference and canReadReceipt; includeContent: false returns the metadata and contentReferences without copying reports. A fleet key appears as an id, name and prefix snapshot, never a credential. Core only describes these fields; the server owns execution, waiting and billing.

Change an existing worker's apps

worker_permissions_set (account Admin, manageAppsAndWorkers) replaces an existing worker's app set in the vocabulary worker_permissions_get returns. An app left out is switched off, and a stance changes only when the call sends allowAll: a deny-by-default app switched on reads nothing until the owner writes rules or the call sends allowAll: true. Rules, identities and MCP tool bindings stay on the dashboard.

manageAppsAndWorkers also covers worker_bindings_set. Keys that held every earlier scope when it was introduced carry it; other existing keys need an account admin to add it.

Worker quality

worker_quality_get reads a worker's acceptance criteria, settings revision, three quality gates and the reason any capability is unavailable. worker_quality_set saves reviewed criteria or changes gates and needs the current expectedRevision; worker_quality_preview checks a definition against supplied evidence without saving anything, calling a model or running the worker. Missing evidence is unknown, not a pass.

A kit's content.evaluationSpec carries public acceptance criteria, and kit_install copies them with all three gates off. A manager key can switch on Quality and suggestions where the account allows it and can switch any gate off. Automatic improvement and shared learning are enabled only in the owner dashboard, which also holds paid comparisons, diagnosis, monitoring and apply/rollback. Improvements change instruction text only; shadow learning does not train model weights. These tools are on the full profile.

Company knowledge

The nine Knowledge descriptors cover published reports, dated source observations and their settings. toolsForProfile("knowledge") returns them for the dedicated Knowledge MCP mount; the workers and decision profiles do not carry them.

Use knowledge_sources, knowledge_search, knowledge_get and knowledge_changes with readKnowledge to discover, search, read and reconcile published reports. The service enforces current account, publication, audience and credential limits. knowledge_configuration_get and knowledge_configuration_set require manageKnowledge, account administrator authority and an unrestricted credential.

knowledge_timeline uses readKnowledge to read dated observations extracted from content workers received. Timeline activation is separate from report publication; report enrollment and history limits do not restrict timeline items. Members can read their own workers plus granted sources, within their credential's worker limits. Coverage follows actual worker reads and is incomplete: verify the live source before acting. knowledge_timeline_status requires manageKnowledge to mark a readable item done, dismissed or open. It records a reader decision without performing an action in the source app.

knowledge_timeline_enable requires manageKnowledge, account administrator authority and an unrestricted credential. Read the current configuration version before enabling or disabling it. Enabling authorizes account-wide source-excerpt retention and model extraction billed to the account wallet, with a default $1 UTC-day cap. Pending excerpts expire after three days; processed candidate text is cleared and hashes expire after 30 days. Items expire 30 days after their date, with at most 5,000 open items per account. Disabling hides timeline reads and clears pending excerpts; existing items age out, and an already-started model call may still be billed. knowledge_changes covers reports only; use observedSinceUtc and reconcile statuses for timeline observations.

Query planning and synthesis belong to the consuming agent. Empty queries browse; changed or revoked evidence requires citation/cache reconciliation. Retrieval does not invoke a model or grant live source-app access.

Development

git clone https://github.com/workerkit/core.git && cd core
npm ci
npm test            # descriptor-contract suite
npm run typecheck
npm run build
npm run check:descriptions # rebuild, then report size and guidance warnings

check:release includes the fresh description report. For the complete per-tool report, run npm run build then node scripts/check-descriptions.mjs --json. An optional --baseline <report.json> compares reports made with the same projection and tokenizer. This is a transport-neutral core projection; the MCP repository separately checks real SDK metadata and reviewed growth budgets. Size, uppercase and unattributed repeated-clause findings are review warnings, never truncation instructions. Generated shared guidance is attributed by its canonical identifier; other repeated text still needs contextual review. Publishing also runs check:provenance: the pinned backend artifact must name its reviewed 40-character source commit and match the generated modules. Local working-tree-* artifacts remain usable for development and package smoke tests, but cannot pass this publication gate.

Issues and pull requests are welcome. Every tool is a declarative ToolDescriptor; the descriptor-contract tests pin each one's exact wire call, so behavior changes are visible in the diff. Security reports go to SECURITY.md, not the issue tracker.

Releases are tag-driven: the workerkit account pushes a vX.Y.Z tag and CI publishes to npm via trusted publishing with a provenance attestation. Publication reruns also require the workerkit account.
