No coding required. This article is synchronized from the LangBot Blog. [Read the canonical version](https://langbot.app/en/blog/connect-deepseek-to-wechat). Published 2026-02-21 · Author: LangBot Team ![DeepSeek x WeChat Integration](https://langbot.app/docs/images/articles/source/images/covers/deepseek-wechat.png) DeepSeek has taken the AI world by storm. Its R1 reasoning model rivals OpenAI's o1 but is open-source and significantly cheaper. However, the official DeepSeek app currently only supports "AI Search" in WeChat, and direct integration into group chats or private workflows is limited. **What if you could have a fully functional DeepSeek R1 bot in your WeChat groups, Discord servers, and Telegram chats right now?** With **LangBot**, you can. And it takes less than 5 minutes. ## Why LangBot? LangBot is an open-source, production-grade IM bot platform. Unlike simple scripts or single-platform bots, LangBot gives you: - **Unified Platform:** Connect once, deploy to WeChat, Discord, Telegram, Slack, Lark, and more. - **Model Agnostic:** Use DeepSeek R1, V3, Claude 3.5, GPT-4, or local Ollama models. - **No Coding:** robust WebUI for configuration. - **Enterprise Features:** Knowledge base (RAG), Plugin system, and multi-user management. ## Prerequisites 1. **A Server or PC:** Docker installed (VPS, local computer, or Synology/NAS). 2. **DeepSeek API Key:** - **Official:** [platform.deepseek.com](https://platform.deepseek.com) - **SiliconFlow (Recommended for speed):** [cloud.siliconflow.cn](https://cloud.siliconflow.cn) (Faster R1 inference). ## Step 1: Deploy LangBot If you haven't deployed LangBot yet, run this one command: ```bash git clone https://github.com/langbot-app/LangBot cd LangBot/docker docker compose up -d ``` Access your dashboard at `http://localhost:5300` (or your server IP). ## Step 2: Configure DeepSeek Model 1. Go to **Models** -> **Provider List**. 2. Find **DeepSeek** (or **SiliconFlow** / **OpenAI Compatible**). 3. Enter your API Key. 4. Click **Save**. Now create a **Model Instance**: - **Name:** `DeepSeek-R1-Bot` - **Model:** `deepseek-reasoner` (for R1) or `deepseek-chat` (for V3). ## Step 3: Create a Chat Pipeline LangBot uses "Pipelines" to manage bot logic. 1. Go to **Pipelines** -> **New Pipeline**. 2. Choose **Chat Pipeline**. 3. Select your `DeepSeek-R1-Bot` model. 4. (Optional) Add a System Prompt: > "You are a helpful assistant powered by DeepSeek R1. You think deeply before answering." ## Step 4: Connect to WeChat (or any platform) ### For WeChat (Personal / Wechaty) *Note: Personal WeChat access relies on third-party libraries and carries some risk. For business use, we recommend Enterprise WeChat (WeCom).* 1. Go to **Bots** -> **New Bot**. 2. Select **WeChat**. 3. Choose the **GeweChat** or **Wechaty** adapter (depending on your preference). 4. Click **Save**. 5. Scan the QR code that appears in the logs or UI. ### For Discord / Telegram 1. Select **Discord** or **Telegram**. 2. Paste your **Bot Token** (from Discord Developer Portal or BotFather). 3. Click **Save**. ## Step 5: Test It Out! Open your chat app and send a message. You should see DeepSeek R1 "thinking" (if supported) and replying with high-quality reasoning. ## Advanced: Using Search & Tools DeepSeek is great, but DeepSeek with **Internet Access** is better. In LangBot: 1. Go to **Plugins**. 2. Install **Tavily Search** or **Google Search**. 3. Add the plugin to your DeepSeek Pipeline. Now your bot can search the web for real-time info *before* reasoning with DeepSeek R1! *** **Ready to build?** [Star us on GitHub](https://github.com/langbot-app/LangBot) or [Read the Docs](https://langbot.app/docs/en/insight/guide.md). --- # Deploy Your Own AI Bot to Discord, Telegram & WeChat in 5 Minutes Source: https://langbot.app/docs/en/articles/deploy-ai-bot-in-5-minutes A step-by-step guide to deploying LangBot — the open-source platform that connects 20+ LLMs to 13+ messaging platforms with a single Docker command. This article is synchronized from the LangBot Blog. [Read the canonical version](https://langbot.app/en/blog/deploy-ai-bot-in-5-minutes). Published 2026-02-17 · Author: LangBot Team ![LangBot Dashboard](https://langbot.app/docs/images/articles/source/images/covers/deploy-ai-bot.png) What if you could have GPT-5, Claude, DeepSeek, and Gemini all answering questions in your Discord server, Telegram group, and WeChat — at the same time? No API wrangling. No weeks of development. Just one Docker command. That's **LangBot** — and it just crossed **15,000 stars** on GitHub. ## The Problem Everyone Faces You want an AI assistant in your team's chat. Maybe for customer support on Telegram. Maybe for a coding helper in Discord. Maybe for a knowledge base bot in your company's WeChat or Lark group. But then reality hits: - Each platform has its own bot API, webhook format, and auth flow - You need to handle message queuing, session management, and error recovery - Switching LLM providers means rewriting your integration layer - Adding RAG or tool calling is yet another project LangBot solves all of this with a single, unified platform. ## What Makes LangBot Different ### 13+ Messaging Platforms, One Codebase Deploy a single LangBot instance and connect it to: **Global:** Discord, Telegram, Slack, LINE, WhatsApp **Asia:** WeChat (Official Account), WeCom, QQ, Lark, DingTalk, Feishu, KOOK Each platform gets its own adapter — you just fill in your bot token in the WebUI and you're live. ![LangBot Bot Management Page](https://langbot.app/docs/images/articles/source/images/article-mcp/13-bot-page.png) ### 20+ LLM Models, Zero Lock-in Through **LangBot Space**, you get instant access to 20 cloud models out of the box — no API keys to manage: - **Claude** (Opus 4.6, Sonnet 4.5, Haiku 4.5) - **GPT** (GPT-5.2, GPT-5-mini, GPT-4.1-mini) - **Gemini** (3 Pro, 2.5 Pro, 2.5 Flash) - **DeepSeek** (R1, V3) - **Grok** (4, 4.1) - **Qwen** (3 Max) Or add your own providers — OpenAI-compatible endpoints, Ollama for local models, any provider you want. ![Model Selection](https://langbot.app/docs/images/articles/source/images/article-mcp/08-model-select.png) ### Built-in Agent with Tool Calling LangBot's Local Agent isn't just a chat wrapper — it's a full agent runtime: - **Multi-round conversations** with configurable memory - **Function calling / tool use** for LLM-driven actions - **MCP (Model Context Protocol)** support for connecting to 100+ pre-built tools - **Knowledge base (RAG)** with built-in vector search ![Pipeline AI Configuration](https://langbot.app/docs/images/articles/source/images/article-mcp/06-pipeline-ai.png) ### Plugin Marketplace 37+ community plugins and growing — install with one click: - **WebSearch** — Let your bot search the web - **AI Image Generator** — Generate images from text - **LinkAnaly** — Auto-preview links in chat - **ScheNotify** — Schedule reminders with natural language - **Google Search**, **Tavily Search**, **RAGFlow Retriever**, and more ![LangBot Space Plugin Market](https://langbot.app/docs/images/articles/source/images/article-mcp/14-space-market.png) ## Deploy in 5 Minutes — For Real ### Step 1: Run Docker Compose ```bash git clone https://github.com/langbot-app/LangBot cd LangBot/docker docker compose up -d ``` That's it. LangBot is now running at `http://localhost:5300`. ### Step 2: Initialize with LangBot Space Open the WebUI and click **"Initialize with Space"**. This connects your instance to LangBot Space, giving you: - 20 cloud models ready to use (with free credits) - One-click plugin installation - Managed API keys ![Initialize with Space](https://langbot.app/docs/images/articles/source/images/article-mcp/01-init-page.png) ### Step 3: Configure Your Pipeline Go to **Pipelines** and edit the default `ChatPipeline`: 1. Select your model (e.g., `deepseek-v3`, `gpt-5-mini`, `claude-sonnet-4-5`) 2. Customize the system prompt 3. Optionally attach a knowledge base or enable tools ![Pipelines Page](https://langbot.app/docs/images/articles/source/images/article-mcp/05-pipelines.png) ### Step 4: Connect a Platform Go to **Bots** → click **+** → choose your platform (Discord, Telegram, etc.) → enter your bot token. Done. Your bot is live. ### Step 5: Test It Use the built-in **Debug Chat** to test your pipeline before going live: ![Debug Chat](https://langbot.app/docs/images/articles/source/images/article-mcp/07-debug-chat.png) ## Real Conversations, Real Value Here's what it looks like when LangBot is running in a QQ group — users asking technical questions and getting instant, accurate answers: ![Group Chat Demo](https://langbot.app/docs/images/articles/source/images/article-mcp/10-group-chat.png) And in private chat: ![Private Chat Demo](https://langbot.app/docs/images/articles/source/images/article-mcp/11-private-chat.png) ## Architecture That Scales LangBot is built for production: - **Pipeline architecture** — each bot binds to a pipeline; pipelines handle AI logic, triggers, safety controls, and output formatting - **Cross-process plugin isolation** — a bad plugin can't crash your bot - **Multiple runner backends** — use LangBot's Local Agent, or connect to Dify, n8n, Langflow, Coze for complex workflows - **Database flexibility** — SQLite for dev, PostgreSQL for production - **Vector DB options** — Chroma, Qdrant, Milvus, pgvector, SeekDB ## Why 15,000+ Developers Choose LangBot | Feature | LangBot | Building from Scratch | | ------------- | ------------------- | --------------------- | | Platforms | 13+ ready | Weeks per platform | | LLM Providers | 20+ models | Manual integration | | Agent Runtime | Built-in | Build your own | | RAG | Native + external | Separate project | | Plugin System | Marketplace | DIY | | Deployment | `docker compose up` | Days of setup | | WebUI | Included | Build your own | ## Get Started - **GitHub:** [github.com/langbot-app/LangBot](https://github.com/langbot-app/LangBot) — give us a star! - **Documentation:** [langbot.app/docs](https://langbot.app/docs/en/insight/guide.md) - **Plugin Market:** [space.langbot.app](https://space.langbot.app) ```bash git clone https://github.com/langbot-app/LangBot cd LangBot/docker docker compose up -d ``` Your AI bot empire starts with one command. --- # Finally Got My Dify Agent Working in Discord, Telegram and Slack Source: https://langbot.app/docs/en/articles/dify-agent-discord-telegram-slack Finally Got My Dify Agent Working in Discord, Telegram and Slack This article is synchronized from the LangBot Blog.

Published 2025-12-11 · Author: LangBot Team ![Finally Got My Dify Agent Working in Discord, Telegram and Slack](https://langbot.app/docs/images/articles/source/images/covers/dify-agent.png) Want your Dify Agent to break free from the browser and chat directly in WeChat, QQ, or Telegram? Combine LangBot with Dify and you can set it up in under 10 minutes. ## Why This Combo? [**LangBot**](https://github.com/langbot-app/LangBot) is the most powerful open-source multi-platform chatbot framework available. It supports major Chinese IMs (QQ, WeChat, Feishu, DingTalk) and international platforms (Telegram, Discord, Slack, LINE). Its core strength is connecting AI backends to messaging apps. **Dify** is one of the hottest AI app development platforms, offering visual Agent orchestration, 50+ built-in tools, and RAG knowledge bases. Together, they let you build a multi-platform AI assistant fast. ## Deploy LangBot Three commands with uvx: ```bash mkdir langbot-instance cd langbot-instance uvx langbot@latest ``` Visit `http://127.0.0.1:5300` and register an admin account: ![LangBot Dashboard](https://langbot.app/docs/images/articles/external/c6d52212ba91-02-langbot-dashboard.png) ## Create a Dify Agent Log in to [cloud.dify.ai](https://cloud.dify.ai) and create a new app. Choose **Agent** type - unlike basic chat apps, Agents can reason autonomously and call tools for complex tasks. ![Select Agent Type](https://langbot.app/docs/images/articles/external/3e5b1d8ec6ec-07-dify-create-app-types.png) ### Configure the Agent In the orchestration interface, set up: **System Instructions** - Define the Agent's role: ``` You are an intelligent assistant that helps users complete various tasks. You have the following capabilities: 1. Answer various user questions 2. Query weather information 3. Retrieve webpage content Please always maintain a friendly and professional attitude. If you need to use tools to get information, proactively call the relevant tools. ``` **Add Tools** - Pick from Dify's 50+ built-in tools, like Weather and Web Scraper: ![Add Tools](https://langbot.app/docs/images/articles/external/9066d99b172c-11-dify-tools-panel.png) **Select Model** - Supports GPT, Claude, Gemini, DeepSeek, and other major LLMs. Final configuration: ![Configuration Complete](https://langbot.app/docs/images/articles/external/be278ca435e8-12-dify-agent-configured.png) ### Get the API Key Click "Publish", then go to "Access API" to create a key: ![Create API Key](https://langbot.app/docs/images/articles/external/471b316018e5-13-dify-api-key-created.png) Save the API key and server address `https://api.dify.ai/v1`. ## Connect Dify to LangBot Back in LangBot, go to Pipelines > ChatPipeline > AI Capability: ![AI Capability Config](https://langbot.app/docs/images/articles/external/8f4b3820ed5b-14-langbot-pipeline-ai-capability.png) Select **Dify Service API** as the Runner: ![Select Dify Runner](https://langbot.app/docs/images/articles/external/efa6fcae9c58-15-langbot-runner-dropdown.png) Enter the configuration: - **Base URL**: `https://api.dify.ai/v1` - **API Key**: The key you just created - **App Type**: Chat (including Chatflow) ![Enter Configuration](https://langbot.app/docs/images/articles/external/74f71a8bf1dc-17-langbot-dify-api-key-entered.png) Save and click "Debug Conversation" to test: ![Test Conversation](https://langbot.app/docs/images/articles/external/9999c12907eb-20-langbot-chat-test.png) If the Agent responds correctly and calls tools, the integration is working. ## Why This Architecture Rocks - **Decoupled Design**: Agent capabilities live in Dify, LangBot handles message routing - each does what it's best at - **One Config, Multi-Platform**: Same Agent serves QQ, WeChat, Telegram, and more simultaneously - **Easy to Extend**: Add RAG knowledge bases, Workflow orchestration, or more tools in Dify later ## Next Steps - Configure messaging platforms in LangBot (QQ bot, WeChat personal account, etc.) - Add more tools in Dify (database queries, API calls) - Try Dify Chatflow for complex conversation flows If you're using n8n, FastGPT, Coze, or Langflow, LangBot supports those too. *** **Resources** - [LangBot Docs](https://langbot.app/docs/en/insight/guide.md) | [GitHub](https://github.com/langbot-app/LangBot) - [Dify Docs](https://docs.dify.ai) | [Cloud Platform](https://cloud.dify.ai) --- # Turn GitHub Releases into Telegram Briefings with Dify and LangBot Source: https://langbot.app/docs/en/articles/dify-langbot-github-release-briefing Fetch a real GitHub release with Dify, extract the useful fields and let GPT-6 Astra write a sourced briefing. Connect the Workflow to LangBot with the correct input and output contract. This article is synchronized from the LangBot Blog. [Read the canonical version](https://langbot.app/en/blog/dify-langbot-github-release-briefing). Published 2026-09-16 · Author: LangBot Team “What changed in the latest release?” sounds like a simple chatbot question. It becomes a data problem as soon as a repository ships something newer than the model knows. We built an on-demand release briefing that reads GitHub first. Dify fetches the public release JSON, a code node keeps the useful fields, GPT-6 Astra writes a short summary, and LangBot returns it to the conversation. The example uses the public LangBot repository, and the same pattern works for other release feeds. ![The briefing comes from a live GitHub API request, with a source link.](https://langbot.app/docs/images/articles/source/images/dify-langbot/056-release-english-live-briefing.png) *The briefing comes from a live GitHub API request, with a source link.* ## Start with a working Dify and LangBot installation Start Docker Compose and Git, then follow the [Dify Docker Compose guide](https://docs.dify.ai/en/self-host/deploy/quick-start/docker-compose) and the [LangBot Docker guide](https://langbot.app/docs/en/deploy/langbot/docker.md) to bring up both services. For Dify, clone the repository, enter `docker`, copy `.env.example` to `.env`, and start Compose. The LangBot guide includes the application image and plugin runtime configuration. The screenshots come from a local installation of **Dify 1.17.1 and LangBot v4.10.11**. We mapped the browser ports to `8088` and `5368`. Those are custom demo ports; the default installations normally use `80` and `5300`. With the defaults, open `http://localhost` and `http://localhost:5300`. You do not need to change ports just to match a screenshot. Create your own administrator accounts and select **English** in both interfaces. ![The first-run screen of the local Dify deployment.](https://langbot.app/docs/images/articles/source/images/dify-langbot/00-dify-install.png) *The first-run screen of the local Dify deployment.* ![The local LangBot installation before administrator setup.](https://langbot.app/docs/images/articles/source/images/dify-langbot/00-langbot-install.png) *The local LangBot installation before administrator setup.* The important requirement is that **the LangBot container can reach Dify**. Our two services share a Docker network, so the Runner uses `http://nginx/v1`, where `nginx` is Dify's service name. You can attach Dify's `nginx` service and LangBot to the same external network in their Compose configurations. For separate hosts, use a Dify HTTPS address reachable from LangBot and append `/v1`. Every `http://nginx/v1` example below refers to our shared network; replace it for your own deployment. Inside a container, `localhost` points back to that container. ## Connect GPT-6 Astra to Dify Open **Integrations → Model Provider**, install the official **OpenAI-API-compatible** provider, and choose **Add Model**. We tested provider version 0.0.66 with an OpenAI-compatible gateway. | Field | Tutorial setting | | ------------------------------------ | ------------------------------------------------------------ | | Model Name / endpoint model name | `gpt-6-astra` | | Model Type / Completion mode | LLM / Chat | | Model display name | GPT-6 Astra | | API Base URL | Your provider's compatible endpoint, usually ending in `/v1` | | API Key | Your own provider key | | API Type | Chat Completions API | | Context size / maximum-token ceiling | 32768 / 4096 for this example | Those limits are conservative settings for this tutorial, not a statement of Astra's full specifications. Save the model and let Dify validate the connection. Replace the gateway shown in the screenshot with your own authorized endpoint. Model names and capabilities depend on your provider. This walkthrough retains the `gpt-6-astra` identifier used in the tested deployment. ![The custom model form, captured before entering the API key.](https://langbot.app/docs/images/articles/source/images/dify-langbot/014-dify-astra-model-settings.png) *The custom model form, captured before entering the API key.* ## Create a Workflow with a clear input and output Create a Dify **Workflow** named `Astra Release Briefing`. Each request is an independent read of the current release, so a Workflow fits naturally. Connect these nodes: `User Request → HTTP Request → Code → LLM → End` ![The complete five-node release workflow.](https://langbot.app/docs/images/articles/source/images/dify-langbot/045-release-workflow-overview.png) *The complete five-node release workflow.* ### 1. Name the input for LangBot In the Start node, add a required paragraph input named: ```text langbot_user_message_text ``` LangBot's Dify Workflow Runner places the incoming message text in that field. If you call it `question` instead, the workflow may pass a manual Dify test and still fail when LangBot calls it with different input names. ![The required input is named to match the runner contract.](https://langbot.app/docs/images/articles/source/images/dify-langbot/049-release-workflow-input.png) *The required input is named to match the runner contract.* ### 2. Read the latest public release Use an HTTP Request node with GET: ```text https://api.github.com/repos/langbot-app/LangBot/releases/latest ``` Add `Accept: application/vnd.github+json` and `User-Agent: LangBot-Dify-Tutorial`. This example reads public data without a GitHub token. Leave SSL verification enabled and choose sensible connection and read timeouts for your environment. ![The HTTP node fetches the latest release directly from GitHub.](https://langbot.app/docs/images/articles/source/images/dify-langbot/046-release-http-request-settings.png) *The HTTP node fetches the latest release directly from GitHub.* ### 3. Extract the useful fields Pass the HTTP node's `body` and `status_code` to a Code node. Keep only the information needed for a briefing: ```python import json def main(body: str, status_code: int) -> dict: if status_code != 200: return {"release": json.dumps({"error": f"GitHub HTTP {status_code}"})} data = json.loads(body) return {"release": json.dumps({ "repository": "langbot-app/LangBot", "tag": data.get("tag_name"), "published_at": data.get("published_at"), "url": data.get("html_url"), "notes": (data.get("body") or "")[:14000], }, ensure_ascii=False)} ``` This removes avatars and unrelated API URLs from the model input. It also makes a non-200 response explicit. A transport failure can still stop the HTTP node before this code runs, which is why you should inspect failed workflow runs as well as successful ones. ![The Code node turns the raw response into a small release record.](https://langbot.app/docs/images/articles/source/images/dify-langbot/047-release-code-extraction-node.png) *The Code node turns the raw response into a small release record.* ### 4. Write the briefing and return summary Choose GPT-6 Astra in the LLM node. Ask it to answer in the user's language and include the repository, release tag, publication time, three useful highlights, and the source URL. Tell it to use only the supplied API data and to report missing data or an error instead of guessing. Pass both `langbot_user_message_text` and the extracted `release` record into the user prompt. In End, map the LLM's `text` to an output named **`summary`**. This is the field LangBot expects from the workflow response. ![The final output maps the generated text to summary.](https://langbot.app/docs/images/articles/source/images/dify-langbot/054-release-summary-output-verified.png) *The final output maps the generated text to summary.* ## Verify against GitHub, not against the screenshot Our English and Chinese runs both retrieved `v4.10.11`, published on September 12, 2026 at 04:55:58 UTC. The briefing linked to that exact release and summarized changes in knowledge ingestion, monitoring, and platform compatibility. ![The English run includes a release tag, date, highlights, and source.](https://langbot.app/docs/images/articles/source/images/dify-langbot/056-release-english-live-briefing.png) *The English run includes a release tag, date, highlights, and source.* Your run may show a newer version. Compare the answer with the current API fields—`tag_name`, `published_at`, and `html_url`—rather than expecting the version in this article forever. ## Put LangBot in front of the app Publish the saved version in Dify. Open **Access Point → Backend Service API → API Key** and create a key for this app. In LangBot, choose **Create Pipelines**, name the pipeline `Astra Release Briefing`, and open **Configuration → AI**: | Field | Value | | -------- | --------------------------------- | | Runner | Dify Service API | | Base URL | `http://nginx/v1` | | App Type | Workflow | | API Key | The Dify app key you just created | The Dify app key belongs here. The Astra provider key stays in Dify. Save the pipeline, then use **Debug Chat** to check the complete request and response path before adding a messaging platform. ![The LangBot pipeline settings, captured before entering the app key.](https://langbot.app/docs/images/articles/source/images/dify-langbot/078-langbot-release-workflow-settings.png) *The LangBot pipeline settings, captured before entering the app key.* ## Ask for the briefing through LangBot The English request through LangBot returned the same kind of source-linked briefing. I also tested Chinese output. One request hit a temporary upstream SSL interruption; a later retry succeeded. The failed run remains separate from the successful evidence. ![The workflow summary returned through LangBot.](https://langbot.app/docs/images/articles/source/images/dify-langbot/079-langbot-release-english-roundtrip.png) *The workflow summary returned through LangBot.* For Telegram or a Discord project channel, start with an on-demand command or mention trigger. This workflow reads the release when someone asks; scheduled delivery requires an additional scheduler and sending step. To cover another repository, first duplicate the app and change the fixed API URL. Add a validated repository parameter only when you actually need it. A short, predictable integration is much easier to operate than an unrestricted URL-fetching bot. ## Connect it to Telegram and Discord Choose **Create Bots** in LangBot, select your adapter, and enter credentials from that platform. After creating the bot, select the pipeline you just built. Check the pipeline's trigger rules for direct messages, group messages, and mentions before inviting it into a channel. The measured path in this walkthrough is **LangBot → Dify → GPT-6 Astra → LangBot**. We inspected the real adapter forms below; we did not authorize a live Slack workspace, Discord server, Telegram bot, or LINE account for this demo. | Platform | Setup path | | ---------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ | | Slack | Create a Slack app, grant the required bot scopes, install it to the workspace, and enter the Bot Token and Signing Secret in LangBot. Configure event subscriptions with the public HTTPS callback from the bot setup, verify it, and invite the bot to the intended channel. | | Discord | Create an application and bot in the Developer Portal. Enter Client ID and bot Token, enable the required message intents, then invite the bot with the appropriate channel permissions. | | Telegram | Create a bot with BotFather and enter its token. Start with a direct message; for groups, invite the bot and configure privacy mode and LangBot's trigger rules for the messages it should receive. | | LINE | Create a Messaging API channel. Enter the Channel access token and Channel secret, configure the public HTTPS webhook, enable webhook delivery, and avoid conflicting automatic replies. | | Mattermost | Enter the server URL and a Bot Account access token, then add that account to the relevant teams and channels. The adapter uses REST and WebSocket APIs. | ![The Discord adapter uses the application Client ID and bot token.](https://langbot.app/docs/images/articles/source/images/dify-langbot/059-platform-discord-fields.png) *The Discord adapter uses the application Client ID and bot token.* ![The Telegram adapter uses a BotFather token and exposes reply options.](https://langbot.app/docs/images/articles/source/images/dify-langbot/060-platform-telegram-fields.png) *The Telegram adapter uses a BotFather token and exposes reply options.* The catalog also includes Matrix, Lark, DingTalk, WeCom, WeChat-related adapters, QQ, KOOK, OneBot v11, Satori, HTTP Bot, and Page Bot. See the [platform-specific LangBot guides](https://langbot.app/docs/en/usage/platforms/readme.md) for the permissions and networking required by each adapter. In particular, the local-only deployment above needs a suitable public HTTPS endpoint for webhook-based integrations such as Slack and LINE. ## Troubleshooting When something fails, check the path in order: Dify preview, the published app version, LangBot's `/v1` base URL and app type, then the platform's event delivery. If you change Dify service passwords, keep Redis and Celery credentials aligned, and do the same for Sandbox and its code-execution client. Our local proxy initially returned fake DNS addresses that Dify's SSRF proxy rejected. Correcting DNS fixed the plugin download without disabling network protections. For external API calls, inspect the run record after a retry rather than assuming that a transport error means the app configuration is wrong.

Test each route through LangBot before connecting Discord or LINE. This article is synchronized from the LangBot Blog. [Read the canonical version](https://langbot.app/en/blog/dify-langbot-support-triage). Published 2026-09-16 · Author: LangBot Team A single support prompt can work surprisingly well—until the same bot receives an expired invitation, an export question, and an angry refund request. Those messages need different responses and different limits. We built a three-route support assistant in Dify, then connected it through LangBot. GPT-6 Astra classifies the request and writes a reply for the selected route. The result is small enough to inspect: one classifier, three response nodes, and three outputs. ![The actual support Chatflow, with separate account, product, and human-review routes.](https://langbot.app/docs/images/articles/source/images/dify-langbot/039-triage-three-branch-overview.png) *The actual support Chatflow, with separate account, product, and human-review routes.* ## Start with a working Dify and LangBot installation Start Docker Compose and Git, then follow the [Dify Docker Compose guide](https://docs.dify.ai/en/self-host/deploy/quick-start/docker-compose) and the [LangBot Docker guide](https://langbot.app/docs/en/deploy/langbot/docker.md) to bring up both services. For Dify, clone the repository, enter `docker`, copy `.env.example` to `.env`, and start Compose. The LangBot guide includes the application image and plugin runtime configuration. The screenshots come from a local installation of **Dify 1.17.1 and LangBot v4.10.11**. We mapped the browser ports to `8088` and `5368`. Those are custom demo ports; the default installations normally use `80` and `5300`. With the defaults, open `http://localhost` and `http://localhost:5300`. You do not need to change ports just to match a screenshot. Create your own administrator accounts and select **English** in both interfaces. ![The first-run screen of the local Dify deployment.](https://langbot.app/docs/images/articles/source/images/dify-langbot/00-dify-install.png) *The first-run screen of the local Dify deployment.* ![The local LangBot installation before administrator setup.](https://langbot.app/docs/images/articles/source/images/dify-langbot/00-langbot-install.png) *The local LangBot installation before administrator setup.* The important requirement is that **the LangBot container can reach Dify**. Our two services share a Docker network, so the Runner uses `http://nginx/v1`, where `nginx` is Dify's service name. You can attach Dify's `nginx` service and LangBot to the same external network in their Compose configurations. For separate hosts, use a Dify HTTPS address reachable from LangBot and append `/v1`. Every `http://nginx/v1` example below refers to our shared network; replace it for your own deployment. Inside a container, `localhost` points back to that container. ## Connect GPT-6 Astra to Dify Open **Integrations → Model Provider**, install the official **OpenAI-API-compatible** provider, and choose **Add Model**. We tested provider version 0.0.66 with an OpenAI-compatible gateway. | Field | Tutorial setting | | ------------------------------------ | ------------------------------------------------------------ | | Model Name / endpoint model name | `gpt-6-astra` | | Model Type / Completion mode | LLM / Chat | | Model display name | GPT-6 Astra | | API Base URL | Your provider's compatible endpoint, usually ending in `/v1` | | API Key | Your own provider key | | API Type | Chat Completions API | | Context size / maximum-token ceiling | 32768 / 4096 for this example | Those limits are conservative settings for this tutorial, not a statement of Astra's full specifications. Save the model and let Dify validate the connection. Replace the gateway shown in the screenshot with your own authorized endpoint. Model names and capabilities depend on your provider. This walkthrough retains the `gpt-6-astra` identifier used in the tested deployment. ![The custom model form, captured before entering the API key.](https://langbot.app/docs/images/articles/source/images/dify-langbot/014-dify-astra-model-settings.png) *The custom model form, captured before entering the API key.* ## Define what each route is allowed to do This example uses a fictional help-desk product called Northstar Desk. Its few product rules are included directly in the branch prompts, so you do not need a pre-existing knowledge base or another tutorial. | Route | Requests | Job | | ------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------ | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | Account | Login, invitations, workspace access | Explain the invitation recovery steps | | Product | CSV export, trial limits, basic setup | Answer from the small set of supplied product rules | | Human | Billing, refunds, enterprise pricing, complaints, unclear mixed requests | Explain that a human decision is needed and help the user prepare a concise request | The Human branch produces handoff guidance. It does not create a ticket, notify an employee, or approve a refund. That distinction belongs in the prompt: otherwise the assistant may casually imply it has performed an action that the workflow never implemented. ## Build the classifier and three branches Create a **Chatflow** named `Astra Support Router`. Connect User Input to a **Question Classifier**, choose GPT-6 Astra, and set its query variable to `sys.query`. Add these categories: ```text Account: login, invitation, password or workspace access Product: usage, ticket export, setup and trial limits Human: billing, refunds, enterprise pricing, angry complaints or unclear mixed questions ``` ![The category descriptions define the routing boundary.](https://langbot.app/docs/images/articles/source/images/dify-langbot/040-triage-classifier-settings.png) *The category descriptions define the routing boundary.* In the classifier's advanced instructions, tell it to choose Human when essential context is missing or the request needs authorization. Connect each branch to its own LLM node and Answer node. Use GPT-6 Astra in each LLM node and pass the user query through `sys.query`. Give the branches different system instructions: - **Account Reply:** invitations expire after 48 hours. Ask the workspace owner to resend from `Settings > Members`. Never request passwords. Ask one clarifying question if the problem is different. - **Product Reply:** owners export CSV tickets from `Settings > Data > Export`; export links last 7 days. The trial lasts 14 days and supports 5 teammates and 2 inboxes. Say when the supplied notes do not cover a question. - **Human Reply:** acknowledge the request and explain that a human must decide. Ask for a brief issue summary and a non-sensitive reference. Tell the user to contact their support team, without inventing an address, response-time promise, or completed action. All three prompts ask for concise replies in the user's language. Keeping the branch instructions separate makes a later change easier to review: adjusting billing guidance does not also change the login instructions. ## Test the path, not only the wording We ran an expired-invitation question, a CSV-export question, and a refund complaint. The preview identified the selected output for each run: | Test | Observed output | Response | | --------------------- | --------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------- | | Expired invitation | Account Output | Owner resend instructions and the 48-hour limit | | Export tickets as CSV | Product Output | Correct menu path and 7-day availability | | Refund complaint | Human Output | Human-review guidance without claiming a refund was issued | ![The account test follows the Account branch.](https://langbot.app/docs/images/articles/source/images/dify-langbot/041-triage-account-path-result.png) *The account test follows the Account branch.* ![The export question follows the Product branch.](https://langbot.app/docs/images/articles/source/images/dify-langbot/043-triage-product-path-result.png) *The export question follows the Product branch.* Expand the workflow process in Preview when a result looks odd. A plausible sentence can hide an incorrect route. That is why the output name is part of the test, rather than treating every fluent answer as a pass. ## Put LangBot in front of the app Publish the saved version in Dify. Open **Access Point → Backend Service API → API Key** and create a key for this app. In LangBot, choose **Create Pipelines**, name the pipeline `Astra Support Router`, and open **Configuration → AI**: | Field | Value | | -------- | --------------------------------- | | Runner | Dify Service API | | Base URL | `http://nginx/v1` | | App Type | Chat | | API Key | The Dify app key you just created | The Dify app key belongs here. The Astra provider key stays in Dify. Save the pipeline, then use **Debug Chat** to check the complete request and response path before adding a messaging platform. ![The LangBot pipeline settings, captured before entering the app key.](https://langbot.app/docs/images/articles/source/images/dify-langbot/053-langbot-triage-dify-settings.png) *The LangBot pipeline settings, captured before entering the app key.* ## Run it through LangBot The same expired-invitation question in LangBot returned the workspace-owner recovery steps. A later refund request in Chinese reached the human-review guidance. LangBot did not need its own copy of the classification rules. ![An account-support response returned through LangBot.](https://langbot.app/docs/images/articles/source/images/dify-langbot/055-langbot-triage-account-english.png) *An account-support response returned through LangBot.* Before putting this in a busy Discord server or a LINE support account, add ambiguous examples such as “I cannot log in and want a refund.” If those repeatedly land in Product, refine the category descriptions and classifier instructions. When you are ready for a real handoff, add your existing ticketing or notification API to the Human branch and handle its success and failure explicitly. The example gives you a visible place to add that action later. ## Connect it to Discord and LINE Choose **Create Bots** in LangBot, select your adapter, and enter credentials from that platform. After creating the bot, select the pipeline you just built. Check the pipeline's trigger rules for direct messages, group messages, and mentions before inviting it into a channel. The measured path in this walkthrough is **LangBot → Dify → GPT-6 Astra → LangBot**. We inspected the real adapter forms below; we did not authorize a live Slack workspace, Discord server, Telegram bot, or LINE account for this demo. | Platform | Setup path | | ---------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ | | Slack | Create a Slack app, grant the required bot scopes, install it to the workspace, and enter the Bot Token and Signing Secret in LangBot.

Published 2026-09-16 · Author: LangBot Team A community announcement usually starts as a few rough notes: a date, a channel, and something people need to bring. The first draft is easy. The annoying part is reopening another app for every “make it shorter” or “turn that into a Telegram reminder.” We built a small writing assistant that keeps those revisions in the conversation. Dify owns the prompt and chat history, GPT-6 Astra writes the response, and LangBot provides the messaging-platform entry point. Here is the complete setup, including the local deployment and the replies We tested. ![A real response from Dify and Astra, shown in LangBot Debug Chat.](https://langbot.app/docs/images/articles/source/images/dify-langbot/025-langbot-writing-english-roundtrip.png) *A real response from Dify and Astra, shown in LangBot Debug Chat.* ## Start with a working Dify and LangBot installation Start Docker Compose and Git, then follow the [Dify Docker Compose guide](https://docs.dify.ai/en/self-host/deploy/quick-start/docker-compose) and the [LangBot Docker guide](https://langbot.app/docs/en/deploy/langbot/docker.md) to bring up both services.

A basic Chatbot is enough here: we need a clear prompt and conversation history, without a branching workflow. ![Dify keeps its basic Chatbot option under More basic app types.](https://langbot.app/docs/images/articles/source/images/dify-langbot/010-dify-create-basic-app.png) *Dify keeps its basic Chatbot option under More basic app types.* ![Give the assistant a name and a specific job.](https://langbot.app/docs/images/articles/source/images/dify-langbot/011-dify-writing-app-create.png) *Give the assistant a name and a specific job.* Select GPT-6 Astra under **Configure model**, then add these instructions: ```text You help a community manager turn rough notes into messages people can use. Reply in the language of the user's request. For an announcement, give: one clear headline, a short ready-to-send message, and one optional reminder. Preserve supplied dates, times, links, and requirements exactly. Never invent missing event details, discounts, results, or promises. If an essential detail is missing, ask one concise question. Use a natural, direct tone. Avoid hype and excessive emojis. Keep a typical reply under 180 words. When revising, use conversation context. ``` The most useful line is the one about preserving details. An announcement can survive plain wording. It cannot survive an invented RSVP link or the wrong time zone. We also kept the output short enough to be useful in a channel. ![The prompt gives the assistant a narrow job and clear boundaries.](https://langbot.app/docs/images/articles/source/images/dify-langbot/012-dify-writing-instructions.png) *The prompt gives the assistant a narrow job and clear boundaries.* For the first test, we entered: > Write a Discord announcement: community demo day is September 22 at 18:00 UTC. Bring one bot demo. RSVP in #demo-day. Keep it friendly and under 100 words. The response preserved the date, time, and channel. We then asked, “Make it shorter, and remove the optional reminder.” The second reply kept the details from the first turn without asking us to paste them again. ![The first English announcement generated in Dify.](https://langbot.app/docs/images/articles/source/images/dify-langbot/016-writing-english-first-reply.png) *The first English announcement generated in Dify.* ![A follow-up instruction revises the existing announcement.](https://langbot.app/docs/images/articles/source/images/dify-langbot/019-writing-english-context-revision.png) *A follow-up instruction revises the existing announcement.* Publish the updated configuration with **Publish Update**. This step matters: an external caller should receive the version you just tested, rather than an older prompt still attached to the published app. ![The published app exposes a backend API for LangBot.](https://langbot.app/docs/images/articles/source/images/dify-langbot/023-writing-access-point-api.png) *The published app exposes a backend API for LangBot.* ## Put LangBot in front of the app Publish the saved version in Dify. Open **Access Point → Backend Service API → API Key** and create a key for this app. In LangBot, choose **Create Pipelines**, name the pipeline `Astra Writing Assistant`, and open **Configuration → AI**: | Field | Value | | -------- | --------------------------------- | | Runner | Dify Service API | | Base URL | `http://nginx/v1` | | App Type | Chat | | API Key | The Dify app key you just created | The Dify app key belongs here. The Astra provider key stays in Dify. Save the pipeline, then use **Debug Chat** to check the complete request and response path before adding a messaging platform. ![The LangBot pipeline settings, captured before entering the app key.](https://langbot.app/docs/images/articles/source/images/dify-langbot/007-langbot-dify-runner-config.png) *The LangBot pipeline settings, captured before entering the app key.* ## Test the same task through LangBot We asked LangBot for a two-sentence Telegram reminder. The reply came back through Dify with the supplied date and time intact. A later request switched the same conversation to Chinese, which also worked. For a community server, we would start with mention-based triggers in a single channel. Let members ask for a draft, shorten it, and adjust the tone before they decide to post it. That small loop is already useful for release announcements, event reminders, and repeated support replies. ![The writing assistant answering through the LangBot pipeline.](https://langbot.app/docs/images/articles/source/images/dify-langbot/025-langbot-writing-english-roundtrip.png) *The writing assistant answering through the LangBot pipeline.* ## Connect it to Discord and Telegram Choose **Create Bots** in LangBot, select your adapter, and enter credentials from that platform. After creating the bot, select the pipeline you just built. Check the pipeline's trigger rules for direct messages, group messages, and mentions before inviting it into a channel. The measured path in this walkthrough is **LangBot → Dify → GPT-6 Astra → LangBot**. We inspected the real adapter forms below; we did not authorize a live Slack workspace, Discord server, Telegram bot, or LINE account for this demo. | Platform | Setup path | | ---------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ | | Slack | Create a Slack app, grant the required bot scopes, install it to the workspace, and enter the Bot Token and Signing Secret in LangBot. Configure event subscriptions with the public HTTPS callback from the bot setup, verify it, and invite the bot to the intended channel. | | Discord | Create an application and bot in the Developer Portal. Enter Client ID and bot Token, enable the required message intents, then invite the bot with the appropriate channel permissions. | | Telegram | Create a bot with BotFather and enter its token. Start with a direct message; for groups, invite the bot and configure privacy mode and LangBot's trigger rules for the messages it should receive. | | LINE | Create a Messaging API channel. Enter the Channel access token and Channel secret, configure the public HTTPS webhook, enable webhook delivery, and avoid conflicting automatic replies. | | Mattermost | Enter the server URL and a Bot Account access token, then add that account to the relevant teams and channels. The adapter uses REST and WebSocket APIs. | ![The Discord adapter uses the application Client ID and bot token.](https://langbot.app/docs/images/articles/source/images/dify-langbot/059-platform-discord-fields.png) *The Discord adapter uses the application Client ID and bot token.* ![The Telegram adapter uses a BotFather token and exposes reply options.](https://langbot.app/docs/images/articles/source/images/dify-langbot/060-platform-telegram-fields.png) *The Telegram adapter uses a BotFather token and exposes reply options.* The catalog also includes Matrix, Lark, DingTalk, WeCom, WeChat-related adapters, QQ, KOOK, OneBot v11, Satori, HTTP Bot, and Page Bot. See the [platform-specific LangBot guides](https://langbot.app/docs/en/usage/platforms/readme.md) for the permissions and networking required by each adapter. In particular, the local-only deployment above needs a suitable public HTTPS endpoint for webhook-based integrations such as Slack and LINE. ## Troubleshooting When something fails, check the path in order: Dify preview, the published app version, LangBot's `/v1` base URL and app type, then the platform's event delivery. If you change Dify service passwords, keep Redis and Celery credentials aligned, and do the same for Sandbox and its code-execution client. Our local proxy initially returned fake DNS addresses that Dify's SSRF proxy rejected. Correcting DNS fixed the plugin download without disabling network protections. For external API calls, inspect the run record after a retry rather than assuming that a transport error means the app configuration is wrong.

The new Cloud and open-source editions now support multi-user Workspaces, invitations, and role-based access. This article is synchronized from the LangBot Blog. [Read the canonical version](https://langbot.app/en/blog/langbot-cloud-multi-user-workspaces). Published 2026-08-25 · Author: LangBot Team ![LangBot multi-user Workspace dashboard](https://langbot.app/docs/images/articles/source/images/cloud-multi-user/oss-dashboard.png) The new [LangBot Cloud](https://cloud.langbot.app) is live. This release tackles a practical question: when a team uses LangBot together, who can access which resources? The same multi-user foundation is now available in the open-source edition. Cloud and self-hosted LangBot still have different operating models, but they share the same basic approach to members, invitations, and permissions. ## What is LangBot? LangBot is an open-source platform for building and operating AI bots across messaging apps. A single dashboard manages bots, message pipelines, knowledge bases, models, and extensions, then connects them to Discord, Telegram, Slack, LINE, QQ, WeChat, WeCom, Lark, DingTalk, and KOOK. LangBot also supports Satori and Matrix; Matrix bridges can extend a deployment to networks such as WhatsApp, Signal, Messenger, Mattermost, Google Chat, IRC, XMPP, and Zulip. The model layer is provider-neutral. LangBot connects to OpenAI, Anthropic Claude, DeepSeek, Google Gemini, xAI Grok, Moonshot Kimi, and Zhipu GLM, while Ollama and LM Studio cover local models. Gateway options include SiliconFlow, Aliyun Bailian, Volcengine Ark, ModelScope, and GiteeAI. Existing agent workflows can also be connected through Dify and MCP. A team can therefore run AI assistants on several messaging platforms from one place and choose a hosted model, a local model, or an existing agent workflow for each use case. ![The new LangBot Cloud sign-in page](https://langbot.app/docs/images/articles/source/images/cloud-multi-user/cloud-login.png) ## Cloud: start in your own Workspace LangBot Cloud now uses LangBot Account for sign-in. New users start with a personal Workspace and can accept invitations to join team Workspaces. If an account belongs to several Workspaces, the current one can be switched from the interface. Bots, pipelines, models, knowledge bases, and extensions belong to the active Workspace. Switching Workspaces does not mix one team's configuration or data with another's. Cloud continues to provide the hosting, updates, and runtime environment. It is the simpler option for teams that want to configure a bot without maintaining a server first. ## Invite people instead of sharing an admin account An Owner, or another role with member-management permission, can send a one-time invitation. The recipient accepts it with their own account and enters the Workspace with the assigned role. ![LangBot Cloud invitation page with the Workspace name anonymized](https://langbot.app/docs/images/articles/source/images/cloud-multi-user/cloud-invitation.png) That is a better long-term setup than sharing one administrator password: each person has an identity, and access can match the work they actually do. Five fixed roles are available today: - **Owner** — owns the Workspace and its highest-level membership controls. - **Admin** — manages members and most Workspace settings. - **Developer** — configures bots, pipelines, models, and extensions. - **Operator** — handles day-to-day operations. - **Viewer** — read-only access. ## Open source: one instance, one Workspace, multiple users The self-hosted edition is not turning into a multi-Workspace SaaS. One LangBot instance still has one Workspace, but that Workspace can now include several users. The account created during initialization becomes the Owner. It can invite other people later. When SMTP is configured, LangBot can deliver the invitation by email; otherwise it shows a one-time link that can be shared through a trusted channel. Members still use the familiar LangBot dashboard. The difference is that resource access is checked against both the Workspace and the member's role, rather than treating every signed-in user as a full administrator. ## Which edition should you use? | | LangBot Cloud | Open-source self-hosted | | ----------------------- | -------------------------------- | --------------------------------------------- | | Deployment | Hosted and maintained by LangBot | You operate the server and data | | Workspaces | Own or join multiple | One per instance | | Members and invitations | Included | Included | | Fixed role-based access | Included | Included | | Best for | Getting a team running quickly | Private deployment and infrastructure control | To start with the hosted edition, visit [cloud.langbot.app](https://cloud.langbot.app).

This article is synchronized from the LangBot Blog. [Read the canonical version](https://langbot.app/en/blog/langbot-plugin-system-deep-dive). Published 2026-02-23 · Author: LangBot Team ![LangBot Plugin System](https://langbot.app/docs/images/articles/source/images/covers/plugin-system.png) Most chatbot frameworks call their "plugin system" a glorified dynamic import of Python modules. LangBot 4.0 takes a harder but more principled approach — **every plugin runs in its own process**, communicating with the host through a structured JSON-RPC-style protocol. This article dissects the system from source code, end to end. ## Overall Architecture: A Three-Layer Process Model LangBot's plugin system consists of three cooperating process layers: ![LangBot Plugin System Architecture](https://langbot.app/docs/images/articles/source/images/plugin-system/architecture.png) **Each layer has a distinct responsibility:** 1. **LangBot Main Process**: Runs business logic (message pipelines, platform adapters, model invocations), connects to Runtime via `PluginRuntimeConnector`. 2. **Plugin Runtime**: The orchestration layer — discovers, launches, and manages all plugin subprocesses, routes requests from the main process to the appropriate plugin. 3. **Plugin Subprocesses**: Each plugin runs in its own Python process, communicating with Runtime via stdio pipes. ### Why Three Layers Instead of Two? The intuitive design would have the main process manage plugin processes directly. LangBot adds the Runtime layer for **deployment flexibility**: - **Local development**: Main process spawns Runtime as a child via stdio (zero config) - **Docker production**: Runtime runs as a separate container, connected via WebSocket - **Windows compatibility**: Since Windows asyncio has incomplete stdio subprocess support, it automatically falls back to WebSocket The same codebase — no config changes — adapts from development to production. ## Communication Protocol: JSON-RPC-Style Request/Response All cross-process communication runs on a unified protocol layer. The core data structures are minimal: ```python # Request class ActionRequest(pydantic.BaseModel): seq_id: int # Sequence number for matching request/response action: str # Action name data: dict # Payload # Response class ActionResponse(pydantic.BaseModel): seq_id: int code: int # 0 = success message: str data: dict chunk_status: str # "continue" | "end" (streaming support) ``` The `Handler` class is the system's core abstraction, acting as both RPC client and server: ```python class Handler: async def call_action(self, action, data, timeout=15.0) -> dict: """Actively call an action provided by the peer, wait for response""" self.seq_id_index += 1 request = ActionRequest.make_request(self.seq_id_index, action.value, data) future = asyncio.Future() self.resp_waiters[self.seq_id_index] = future await self.conn.send(json.dumps(request.model_dump())) response = await asyncio.wait_for(future, timeout) return response.data @action(SomeAction.DO_SOMETHING) async def handle_something(data: dict) -> ActionResponse: """Register an action for the peer to call""" return ActionResponse.success({"result": "ok"}) ``` **Key design points:** - `seq_id`-based request/response matching enables full-duplex concurrent calls - Streaming responses via `chunk_status` for long-running operations like command execution - Large messages auto-chunk (stdio: 16KB / WebSocket: 64KB per chunk) - File transfer uses a separate base64 chunking mechanism ### Action Enums: Clear API Contracts The system defines all cross-process calls through four enum groups: ```python # Plugin → Runtime (plugin-initiated requests) class PluginToRuntimeAction: REGISTER_PLUGIN = "register_plugin" SEND_MESSAGE = "send_message" # Send message to a platform INVOKE_LLM = "invoke_llm" # Call an LLM SET_PLUGIN_STORAGE = "set_plugin_storage" # Persistent storage # ... # Runtime → Plugin (runtime-dispatched commands) class RuntimeToPluginAction: INITIALIZE_PLUGIN = "initialize_plugin" EMIT_EVENT = "emit_event" CALL_TOOL = "call_tool" EXECUTE_COMMAND = "execute_command" SHUTDOWN = "shutdown" # ... # LangBot Main → Runtime class LangBotToRuntimeAction: INSTALL_PLUGIN = "install_plugin" EMIT_EVENT = "emit_event" LIST_TOOLS = "list_tools" # ... # Runtime → LangBot Main class RuntimeToLangBotAction: GET_PLUGIN_SETTINGS = "get_plugin_settings" SET_BINARY_STORAGE = "set_binary_storage" # ... ``` This makes API boundaries crystal clear — what a plugin can and cannot do is defined entirely by these enums. ## Plugin Lifecycle A plugin goes through these stages from installation to execution: ### 1. Discovery On startup, Runtime scans the `data/plugins/` directory: ```python async def launch_all_plugins(self): for plugin_path in glob.glob("data/plugins/*"): if not os.path.isdir(plugin_path): continue task = self.launch_plugin(plugin_path) self.plugin_run_tasks.append(task) ``` Directory names follow the `{author}__{name}` convention, each containing a `manifest.yaml` and plugin code. ### 2. Launch Runtime spawns an independent subprocess for each plugin: ```python async def launch_plugin(self, plugin_path: str): python_path = sys.executable args = ["-m", "langbot_plugin.cli.__init__", "run", "-s", "--prod"] ctrl = StdioClientController( command=python_path, args=args, working_dir=plugin_path, # Each plugin runs in its own directory ) await ctrl.run(new_plugin_connection_callback) ``` **Key detail**: The subprocess working directory is set to the plugin's own directory — natural filesystem isolation. ### 3. Registration After starting, the plugin process actively registers itself with Runtime: ```python # Runtime-side registration handler async def register_plugin(self, handler, container_data, debug_plugin=False): plugin_container = PluginContainer.from_dict(container_data) # Fetch plugin settings from the main process plugin_settings = await self.context.control_handler.call_action( RuntimeToLangBotAction.GET_PLUGIN_SETTINGS, {...} ) # Initialize the plugin (send config) await handler.initialize_plugin(plugin_settings) # Store the plugin container self.plugins.append(plugin_container) ``` ### 4. Running Once in `INITIALIZED` state, the plugin can receive events, tool calls, and command executions. ### 5. Shutdown ```python async def shutdown_plugin(self, plugin_container): # 1. Notify the plugin to shut down gracefully await plugin_container._runtime_plugin_handler.shutdown_plugin() # 2. Close the communication connection await plugin_container._runtime_plugin_handler.conn.close() # 3. Kill the subprocess if handler.stdio_process is not None: handler.stdio_process.kill() await asyncio.wait_for(handler.stdio_process.wait(), timeout=2) ``` ## Component System: Four Extension Types A LangBot plugin isn't a single hook function — it's a **component container**. A single plugin can provide multiple component types simultaneously: ### EventListener The most fundamental extension — listen for events in the message pipeline: ```python from langbot_plugin.api.definition.components.common.event_listener import EventListener from langbot_plugin.api.entities.events import PersonNormalMessageReceived from langbot_plugin.api.entities.context import EventContext class MyListener(EventListener): @EventListener.handler(PersonNormalMessageReceived) async def on_person_message(self, ctx: EventContext): event = ctx.event # Modify the user message before it reaches the LLM event.user_message_alter = "Answer in poetry: " + event.text_message # Or block further processing # ctx.prevent_default() # ctx.prevent_postorder() ``` Supported events cover the full message lifecycle: | Event | Trigger | | ----------------------------- | ---------------------------------- | | `PersonMessageReceived` | Any private message received | | `GroupMessageReceived` | Any group message received | | `PersonNormalMessageReceived` | Private message deemed processable | | `GroupNormalMessageReceived` | Group message deemed processable | | `NormalMessageResponded` | LLM response completed | | `PromptPreProcessing` | Prompt preprocessing stage | Event propagation supports two interruption modes: - `prevent_default()`: Skip default behavior (e.g., skip the LLM call) - `prevent_postorder()`: Stop subsequent plugins from running ### Tool Tools for LLM Function Calling: ```python from langbot_plugin.api.definition.components.tool.tool import Tool class WeatherTool(Tool): async def call(self, params: dict, session, query_id: int) -> str: city = params.get("city", "Beijing") # Call weather API... return f"{city}: Sunny, 25°C" ``` Tool metadata (name, description, parameter schema) is defined in a companion YAML manifest file. LangBot automatically converts this into the Function definition that LLMs understand. ### Command User-triggered commands via `!command`, with subcommand support: ```python from langbot_plugin.api.definition.components.command.command import Command class MyCommand(Command): def __init__(self): super().__init__() @self.subcommand("hello", help="Say hello") async def hello(self, ctx): yield CommandReturn(text="Hello from plugin!") @self.subcommand("status", help="Show status") async def status(self, ctx): yield CommandReturn(text="All systems operational.") ``` Command results are returned via `AsyncGenerator`, providing natural streaming output. ### KnowledgeRetriever A multi-instance component for connecting external knowledge bases: ```python from langbot_plugin.api.definition.components.knowledge_retriever.retriever import KnowledgeRetriever class MyRetriever(KnowledgeRetriever): async def retrieve(self, context) -> list: results = await self.search_external_db(context.query) return [RetrievalResultEntry(content=r) for r in results] ``` KnowledgeRetriever is a **polymorphic component** — a single retriever class can spawn multiple instances, each with independent configuration. This allows users to connect multiple different external knowledge bases. ## SDK API: What Plugins Can Do Plugins gain rich capabilities through the `LangBotAPIProxy` inherited by `BasePlugin`: ```python class LangBotAPIProxy: # Message operations async def send_message(self, bot_uuid, target_type, target_id, message_chain) # Model invocation async def get_llm_models(self) -> list[str] async def invoke_llm(self, model_uuid, messages, funcs=[], extra_args={}) # Persistent storage (plugin-level isolation) async def set_plugin_storage(self, key, value: bytes) async def get_plugin_storage(self, key) -> bytes # Workspace storage (cross-plugin shared) async def set_workspace_storage(self, key, value: bytes) async def get_workspace_storage(self, key) -> bytes # System info async def get_langbot_version(self) -> str async def get_bots(self) -> list[str] async def list_plugins_manifest(self) -> list ``` **The storage API design is worth noting**: Two levels of KV storage — `plugin_storage` (plugin-private) and `workspace_storage` (globally shared), storing data as bytes (base64-serialized in transit). Simple but flexible enough. ## Event Dispatch Mechanism The complete path from main process to plugin: ![Event Dispatch Flow](https://langbot.app/docs/images/articles/source/images/plugin-system/event-dispatch.png) Key source code: ```python async def emit_event(self, event_context, include_plugins=None): for plugin in self.plugins: if plugin.status != RuntimeContainerStatus.INITIALIZED: continue if not plugin.enabled: continue # Pipeline-level plugin filtering if include_plugins is not None: plugin_id = f"{plugin.manifest.metadata.author}/{plugin.manifest.metadata.name}" if plugin_id not in include_plugins: continue resp = await plugin._runtime_plugin_handler.emit_event( event_context.model_dump() ) event_context = EventContext.model_validate(resp["event_context"]) # Plugin requested propagation stop if event_context.is_prevented_postorder(): break return emitted_plugins, event_context ``` The `include_plugins` parameter enables **pipeline-level plugin binding** — different message processing pipelines can use different subsets of plugins. ## Installation & Distribution Plugins support three installation sources: 1. **Local upload**: `.lbpkg` files (actually zip archives containing manifest.yaml and code) 2. **Marketplace**: Install from LangBot Space online 3. **GitHub Release**: Download from a GitHub repository's Release assets The installation flow: ```python async def install_plugin(self, source, install_info): yield {"current_action": "downloading plugin package"} # 1. Fetch and extract the plugin package (unzip) plugin_path, author, name, version = await self.install_plugin_from_file(plugin_file) yield {"current_action": "installing dependencies"} # 2. Install dependencies (pip install -r requirements.txt) pkgmgr_helper.install_requirements(requirements_file) yield {"current_action": "initializing plugin settings"} # 3. Initialize configuration await self.context.control_handler.call_action( RuntimeToLangBotAction.INITIALIZE_PLUGIN_SETTINGS, {...} ) yield {"current_action": "launching plugin"} # 4. Launch the plugin process task = self.launch_plugin(plugin_path) ``` The entire process reports progress via `AsyncGenerator`, enabling real-time installation status in the frontend. ## Developer Experience The SDK provides a complete developer toolchain: ```bash # Initialize a new plugin lbp init # Add a component lbp component add # Run locally for debugging lbp run # Package for publication lbp publish ``` **Debug mode** has a particularly clever design: the developer's plugin connects to the running Runtime via WebSocket (instead of stdio), meaning you can hot-reload plugin code without restarting LangBot. Debug plugins are specially marked in the UI and protected from accidental deletion. ## Comparisons with Other Systems ### vs Dify Plugins Dify's plugin system (`dify-plugin-daemon`) shares the process isolation philosophy with LangBot, but the focus differs: - **Dify**: Plugins extend workflow node types (Tool, Model, Extension) — designed for AI application orchestration - **LangBot**: Plugins extend the message processing pipeline (Event, Tool, Command, KnowledgeRetriever) — designed for instant messaging scenarios LangBot's `EventListener` component provides a capability Dify lacks — injecting logic at any stage of message processing. ### vs MCP (Model Context Protocol) MCP is a standardized protocol for AI tool invocation. LangBot's Tool component and MCP services overlap functionally, but serve different purposes: - **MCP**: A universal "AI calls external capabilities" protocol, usable by any LLM application - **LangBot Tool**: Deeply integrated with message processing context, with access to session info, user identity, etc. In practice, LangBot natively supports MCP — users can configure MCP servers directly in LangBot without writing plugins. LangBot's Tool component is for scenarios requiring access to LangBot's internal context. ## Design Decisions Explained **Why process isolation instead of threads/coroutines?** - Plugin code quality is unpredictable; a segfault shouldn't crash the entire service - Dependency isolation: different plugins may depend on different versions of the same library - Resource control: you can set per-plugin process resource limits **Why JSON instead of Protobuf/MessagePack?** - Debug-friendly: developers can directly read communication logs - Natively supported in Python, no extra dependencies - The performance bottleneck isn't serialization (plugin call frequency is far below database queries) **Why stdio over WebSocket by default?** - stdio requires no network stack — lower latency - Simpler process lifecycle management (child processes auto-cleanup when parent exits) - WebSocket is only used where stdio isn't supported (Docker, Windows) ## Conclusion LangBot's plugin system is a **production-grade, process-isolated, event-driven component framework for extensibility**. Its core design principles: 1. **Safety first**: Process isolation ensures plugins can't destabilize the main service 2. **Deployment flexibility**: Dual stdio/WebSocket modes adapt to all environments 3. **Developer-friendly**: Complete SDK, CLI, and debug support 4. **Component-based**: Four component types cover the major extension needs If you're interested in developing LangBot plugins, start with the [plugin development docs](https://langbot.app/docs/en/plugin/dev/tutor.md), or browse existing plugins on the [marketplace](https://space.langbot.app/market) for inspiration. --- # LangBot v4.10.0: Agentic Sandbox & Skills — Letting Your Agent Work Like a Developer Source: https://langbot.app/docs/en/articles/langbot-v4100-sandbox-skills LangBot v4.10.0 brings a real sandbox (Box Runtime) and an on-demand Skills system to the built-in Agent. It can now run commands and edit files in an isolated environment, and pull in specialized know-how exactly when a task needs it. This article is synchronized from the LangBot Blog. [Read the canonical version](https://langbot.app/en/blog/langbot-v4100-sandbox-skills). Published 2026-06-04 · Author: LangBot Team ![LangBot v4.10.0 Agentic Sandbox & Skills](https://langbot.app/docs/images/articles/source/images/covers/sandbox-skills.png) LangBot v4.10.0 is our biggest Agent update yet. It ships two features that point in the same direction — **letting the built-in Agent work like a real developer**: 1. **Sandbox**: the Agent now runs in a genuinely isolated environment where it can execute commands and work with files. 2. **Skills**: the Agent can load specialized know-how on demand, instead of cramming everything into its context. Both capabilities were led by community contributor [@huanghuoguoguo](https://github.com/huanghuoguoguo). Let's dig in. > **New to LangBot?** [LangBot](https://github.com/langbot-app/LangBot) is an open-source LLM bot platform (15k+ GitHub stars) that lets you deploy AI chatbots across **Discord, Telegram, WeChat (个人微信 / 企业微信), Slack, Lark (Feishu), DingTalk, QQ** and more — all from a single instance. It connects 20+ large language models (OpenAI GPT, Anthropic Claude, Google Gemini, DeepSeek, and others) to 13+ messaging platforms, with built-in Agent, RAG knowledge bases, MCP support, and a plugin ecosystem. You can self-host it with one Docker command or run it managed on [LangBot Cloud](https://space.langbot.app/cloud). ## 📦 Sandbox: a real workspace for your Agent Until now, LangBot's built-in Agent could only call predefined tools. It couldn't "open a terminal and run a command," nor "write an intermediate result to a file and read it back later" — which is exactly what human developers do all day. v4.10.0 introduces the new **Box Runtime**. It gives the Agent an isolated sandbox environment with six native tools built in: | Tool | Purpose | | ------- | ---------------------------- | | `exec` | Run shell commands | | `read` | Read file contents | | `write` | Write files | | `edit` | Make targeted edits to files | | `glob` | Find files by pattern | | `grep` | Search inside file contents | With this toolkit, the Agent can work like a developer: run a script, save the output to a file, read it back to analyze, and post-process the result. All of it happens inside an isolated environment that never touches the host. ![LangBot sandbox in action](https://langbot.app/docs/images/articles/source/images/sandbox-skills/sandbox.png) ### Pluggable backends The sandbox's execution backend is **pluggable**, and LangBot selects one automatically based on your deployment: - **Docker**: spins up a dedicated `langbot_box` container that talks to the main process over WebSocket. Great for containerized deployments. - **nsjail**: lightweight isolation based on Linux namespaces, no extra container needed. Great for bare-metal or single-container setups. - **E2B**: cloud sandbox that runs execution in a remote isolated environment. You don't have to pick manually — `box.enabled` is the master switch. Once on, LangBot probes for the most suitable backend and degrades gracefully if probing fails. ![Sandbox native tools](https://langbot.app/docs/images/articles/source/images/sandbox-skills/sandbox-tools.png) ### It also hosts MCP Servers Beyond native tools, the Box Runtime takes on another important job: **hosting stdio-mode MCP Servers**. Previously, stdio-mode MCP Servers had to be spawned as subprocesses directly inside the main process — neither safe nor easy to manage. Now they all run inside the sandbox, sharing the same isolation boundary as the Agent's execution environment. `http` / `sse` mode MCP is unaffected and works as before. ## 🎯 Skills: know-how, loaded on demand The second big update is **Skills**. As the Agent's capabilities grow, an old problem surfaces: **the context window is finite**. If you stuff every possible instruction, procedure, and reference doc into the system prompt, the context fills up fast — and most of it is irrelevant to the task at hand. The design idea behind Skills is simple: **keep the table of contents in view, and open the book only when you need it.** A Skill is an **on-demand instruction pack** containing: - **A prompt**: tells the Agent what the skill does and when to use it - **A procedure**: the steps to accomplish a class of tasks - **Scripts**: ready-to-run helper scripts - **Reference files**: API docs, templates, examples, and so on By default the Agent only sees a **list of available skills** (name + summary), which costs almost nothing in context. When it decides a task needs a particular skill, it pulls the full content just in time via the `activate` action. ![LangBot Skills system](https://langbot.app/docs/images/articles/source/images/sandbox-skills/skills.png) The benefits are clear: 1. **Lean context**: irrelevant skill content never takes up the window. 2. **Extensible capabilities**: want to teach the Agent a new trick? Write a skill pack — no core code changes. 3. **Instant effect**: skills load dynamically during execution, no restart required. If you've used Claude's Skills or a similar mechanism, this pattern will feel familiar — it decouples "what the Agent knows" from "what the Agent needs right now." ## 🧩 Shipped early across 4.9.x These were planned for v4.10.0 but shipped early in the 4.9.x line: - **Plugin Extension Pages**: plugins can render custom UI via iframe + a Page SDK ([@TyperBody](https://github.com/TyperBody), #2107) - **Monitoring**: feedback linked to message IDs, plus feedback export ([@6mvp6](https://github.com/6mvp6), #2120) - **Security hardening**: path-traversal fixes and removal of an authenticated RCE endpoint ([@sebastiondev](https://github.com/sebastiondev), #2087 / #2178) ## 🚀 Getting started The sandbox needs an execution backend, depending on how you deploy: - **Docker**: run `docker compose --profile all up`, which also launches the `langbot_box` container. - **Manual / `uvx`**: runs as a stdio subprocess automatically, nothing to do. - **LangBot Cloud**: ready out of the box — the sandbox is already set up for you, nothing to install. To turn the sandbox off, set `box.enabled: false` — built-in tools, Skill create/edit, and stdio-mode MCP are all disabled; `http` / `sse` mode MCP is unaffected. See the [Sandbox docs](https://langbot.app/docs/en/usage/sandbox/readme.md) for details. This release also upgrades the plugin SDK to **`langbot-plugin 0.4.1`**. ## Closing thoughts Sandbox and Skills are, at their core, answering the same question: **how do we let an Agent handle genuinely complex, open-ended tasks?** The sandbox solves the "**hands**" problem — giving the Agent the ability to execute and room to experiment. Skills solve the "**brain**" problem — letting the Agent reach for the right knowledge at the right moment, without drowning in irrelevant information. The fastest way to try it is to spin up a managed instance on [LangBot Cloud](https://space.langbot.app/cloud), where the sandbox is ready to go. You can also read the [full release notes](https://github.com/langbot-app/LangBot/releases/tag/v4.10.0) for every change. Thank you to everyone building with LangBot. We'll keep making the cloud Agent experience more stable and more capable. --- # LangBot 4.11: Event-Driven Agents, Plugin Runners, and a Workspace Assistant Source: https://langbot.app/docs/en/articles/langbot-v411-event-driven-agents Explore LangBot 4.11 with real screenshots: route platform events to agents, install independent AgentRunner plugins, manage resources through the Workspace Assistant, and upgrade existing pipelines. This article is synchronized from the LangBot Blog. [Read the canonical version](https://langbot.app/en/blog/langbot-v411-event-driven-agents). Published 2026-10-15 · Author: LangBot Team LangBot is an open-source AI chatbot and agent platform that connects messaging platforms, large language models, knowledge bases, and plugins to help you build, deploy, and manage AI assistants. Most chatbots start with a simple loop: receive a message, generate a reply. Real collaboration involves more than messages, though. A new member joins a community, someone reacts to an answer, or a colleague clicks a card button. Each can be the beginning of a task. **LangBot 4.11 makes these events configurable entry points for agents, with routing and execution tracking.** Together with plugin-based AgentRunners and the new Workspace Assistant, the release separates three practical questions: what triggers the work, what executes it, and how you manage it. ## 1. Event-driven agents: more than the next message Event-Based Agents, or EBA, extend processing beyond ordinary messages to platform events such as member joins and departures, message recalls, reactions, and card clicks. In this release, 13 platform adapters have been rebuilt on the EBA architecture. That does not mean every platform offers identical event coverage. Available events still depend on the platform, adapter, and bot permissions. The shared foundation is what happens after an event reaches LangBot: it can be routed to a suitable processor. ![Routing platform events to processors](https://langbot.app/docs/images/articles/source/images/langbot-411/eba-event-routing.png) *Event Routing example from the official 4.11 release notes.* ### Start with the scenario Event Routing provides common scenarios, such as welcoming new members or handling departures, as starting points for rules. You then choose the processor responsible for the work. For example, a community could send ordinary questions to a knowledge-base Pipeline, route joins to an Agent that welcomes members and explains community rules, and use a plugin processor for events requiring fixed business logic. This is a configuration pattern, not a preconfigured integration: check platform support and permissions, then test each route before enabling it. The benefit is a cleaner separation between platform connectivity and business behavior. You can revise the welcome flow without rewriting the chatbot integration, or change the question-answering strategy without combining every behavior into one prompt. ### Pipeline, Agent, or plugin processor? ![Three processor types in a running LangBot 4.11 instance](https://langbot.app/docs/images/articles/source/images/langbot-411/processor-types.png) *The processor creation screen in the fresh LangBot 4.11.0 instance used for this article.* - **Pipeline:** handles message events through a fixed sequence. A good fit for direct AI replies, knowledge-base questions, and established message-processing flows. - **Agent:** follows natural-language instructions to handle different events, or delegates processing to an external agent platform. Useful when a task requires contextual decisions. - **Plugin processor:** runs plugin code for explicitly declared event types. A good fit for deterministic rules and specialized integrations. Not everything needs to become an agent. Keep clear rules in code, predictable question-answering in a Pipeline, and use an Agent where judgment adds value. ### Debug the event, not just the reply The event debugger lets you edit an event payload through a form and inspect execution logs and details. It helps validate fields and processing behavior before testing on the real messaging platform. A successful debug run does not replace verification of platform connectivity, permissions, and actual callbacks. Platform improvements accompany the new architecture, including Slack Socket Mode, DingTalk card interactions, WeChat typing indicators, and OneBot WebSocket support. Check the relevant platform documentation for the exact capabilities and setup requirements. ## 2. Plugin-based AgentRunners: update execution independently LocalAgent, Dify, Coze, and n8n runners have moved from the core application into official Marketplace plugins. New runners include Codex, Claude Code, and ACP. ![Official runners in the live extension marketplace](https://langbot.app/docs/images/articles/source/images/langbot-411/marketplace-live.png) *The Official Runner section loaded from the Marketplace in our running instance. Marketplace listings evolve independently of the Core release.* For users, the practical change is straightforward: **install the runners you need and update them independently**. Use LocalAgent for models, tools, and knowledge retrieval, or connect an existing Dify application or n8n workflow without building a separate messaging integration for each execution backend. For developers, AgentRunner Protocol v1 provides an extension boundary for implementing a runner without adding platform-specific execution logic directly to Core. ![AgentRunner plugins featured in the release notes](https://langbot.app/docs/images/articles/source/images/langbot-411/runner-plugins-marketplace.png) *Runner examples from the official release notes. Each runner still has its own account, API, and execution-environment requirements.* Plugin-based execution is not unrestricted execution. Runners can access only the tools and platform APIs authorized in the current context. The Marketplace displays certification badges, and Core verifies certified plugin signatures. These mechanisms address provenance and authorization; still read the plugin documentation and check its compatibility with your deployment. ### What happens to existing Pipelines? The migration flow installs required plugins and backs up the original configuration. After upgrading, complete migration on the Pipelines page, then review the selected runner, model, knowledge bases, and tools. **Migrated Pipelines start fresh sessions.** Legacy custom runners must be rewritten as plugin runners. Offline deployments can choose **Data only** migration and install the runner plugins manually. The [4.11 configuration migration map](https://github.com/langbot-app/LangBot/blob/v4.11.0/docs/pipeline-migration-config-map.zh-CN.md) provides the detailed mappings in Chinese. ## 3. Workspace Assistant: configuration through confirmed actions The new Workspace Assistant is for the people managing LangBot, rather than end users chatting with a bot. It can inspect resources in the current Workspace and help create or configure resources such as Pipelines and knowledge bases through conversation. ![Workspace Assistant alongside the execution dashboard](https://langbot.app/docs/images/articles/source/images/langbot-411/workspace-assistant.png) *The assistant's initial screen in our fresh instance. A LangBot Account or a configured model is required before use. The zero-value monitoring data is the genuine empty state of this new Workspace.* Start with a read-only question such as “What models, knowledge bases and Pipelines are available?” Then ask for a task such as creating a knowledge-base question-answering application. The useful distinction is not merely replacing a form with a chat box: the assistant can inspect existing resources before proposing a configuration. **Every write requires confirmation before execution.** Review the proposed resource, parameters, and scope before approving a change. This makes configuration easier to find while keeping the administrator in control of modifications. ## 4. Operations that match the new execution model ### Follow executions, not only message counts With events going to Pipelines, Agents, or plugins, debugging requires a view of the whole execution. LangBot 4.11 adds unified execution views, tool-call tracing, and a live in-flight panel. A useful troubleshooting sequence is to check whether the event arrived, which processor received it, and whether model and tool calls completed. This separates connectivity problems from routing mistakes and execution failures instead of treating every missing reply as the same issue. ### Account security and an operation trail ![Passkey and two-factor authentication settings](https://langbot.app/docs/images/articles/source/images/langbot-411/account-security.png) *The account settings in our running instance. Passkeys and two-factor authentication are not enabled on this demonstration account.* The release adds WebAuthn passkey sign-in and TOTP two-factor authentication, alongside operation logs that record changes and support integrity checks. In a shared Workspace, these features help strengthen sign-in and establish who changed what. Passkeys also depend on browser secure-context requirements; configure them on an appropriate HTTPS deployment. Media handling now uses content-addressed, deduplicated storage to reduce growth of `langbot.db` caused by repeated media. For command-line operations, `lbctl` and API keys provide management and diagnostic entry points that can fit into existing operational workflows. ## 5. A clearer first run—and an upgrade checklist ![Selecting a platform in the first-run wizard](https://langbot.app/docs/images/articles/source/images/langbot-411/onboarding.png) *The live onboarding wizard starts with a platform, then moves through bot setup and AI engine configuration.* New users can follow the sidebar tour and scenario-based bot wizard. Validate a simple question-and-answer flow first, then add knowledge retrieval, tools, and event routes. Introducing one capability at a time makes failures easier to understand. For an existing deployment: 1. **Back up first.** Preserve `data/` or your PostgreSQL database and deployment configuration. Upgrading from the latest v4.10.x is recommended. 2. **Upgrade Core and its matching Runtime.** Check service connectivity. The 4.11.0 release pins SDK `0.7.11`; do not leave an older Runtime in place. 3. **Migrate Pipelines and update plugins.** Review the resulting runner configuration and remember the fresh-session boundary. 4. **Verify a real business flow.** Test an existing message conversation before expanding to event routes and authorized tools. 5. **Review telemetry and configuration changes.** New execution telemetry is enabled by default and excludes message content; disable that telemetry with `space.disable_telemetry: true`. Configuration adds `media_cache`, `api.host`, and `runner.admin_plugins`, and removes `force_box_session_id_template`. See the [data collection policy](https://langbot.app/docs/en/insight/data-collection-policy.md) and release notes. ## Get started with LangBot 4.11 The release connects three decisions: **which event starts a task, which runner or processor handles it, and how to manage and observe the result**. Keep familiar chat-based flows where they work, then introduce community interactions and event-driven tasks incrementally. - [Download v4.11.0 and read the full release notes](https://github.com/langbot-app/LangBot/releases/tag/v4.11.0) - [Read the deployment and usage documentation](https://langbot.app/docs/en/insight/guide.md) - [Try LangBot Cloud](https://cloud.langbot.app) Thanks to everyone who contributed code, testing, documentation, and feedback.

This article is synchronized from the LangBot Blog. [Read the canonical version](https://langbot.app/en/blog/langbot-v490-rag-plugin-architecture). Published 2026-03-10 · Author: LangBot Team ![LangBot v4.9.0 RAG Plugin Architecture](https://langbot.app/docs/images/articles/source/images/covers/rag-plugin.png) LangBot v4.9.0, codenamed **"Knowledge Without Borders,"** does exactly what the name says: **the entire knowledge base capability has been refactored from a built-in implementation to a plugin-driven architecture.** This isn't a minor tweak — it redefines what "knowledge" means in LangBot. ## The Problem with the Old Approach Before v4.9.0, LangBot's knowledge base was split into two separate systems: - **Built-in Knowledge Base**: Used Chroma as the vector database, with embedding models managed by LangBot directly. Document parsing, chunking, and indexing were all hardcoded. - **External Knowledge Base**: Bridged services like Dify, RAGFlow, and FastGPT through the `KnowledgeRetriever` plugin component — retrieval only, no document ingestion. These two systems lived behind separate UI tabs, with completely different data models and management flows. **Why this was painful:** 1. **Poor extensibility**: Want a different vector database? A custom chunking strategy? Sorry, that's hardcoded. 2. **High maintenance cost**: Every RAG improvement required changes to LangBot's core code and a new release. 3. **Fragmented UX**: Two completely different knowledge base management flows meant a steep learning curve. v4.9.0 solves this decisively: **extract RAG capabilities from LangBot's core and hand them to plugins.** ## What Changed ### 1. Unified Knowledge Base Model The `internal` / `external` distinction is gone. All knowledge bases are managed through a single interface, differentiated only by their `rag_engine_plugin_id`. One list, one creation flow — just pick your engine. ### 2. KnowledgeEngine Component This is the headline addition. `KnowledgeEngine` replaces the old `KnowledgeRetriever` and takes ownership of the full knowledge base lifecycle: - **Document Ingestion**: The complete pipeline from file parsing to vector indexing - **Knowledge Retrieval**: Returning relevant chunks at query time - **Document Deletion**: Cleaning up documents and their associated vector data - **Lifecycle Hooks**: Callbacks when knowledge bases are created or deleted A KnowledgeEngine plugin has full control over indexing and retrieval strategies — not just retrieval. ![Knowledge Engine plugins in the Marketplace](https://langbot.app/docs/images/articles/external/b9a33a8551a7-8dd37939-4f10-4046-bd84-cce798005cd4.png) ### 3. Parser Component Document parsing has been extracted into its own plugin component type. A Parser converts binary files (PDF, Word, Markdown, etc.) into structured text, which is then handed to the RAG engine for chunking and indexing. **The data flow:** ![Data flow: Parser → KnowledgeEngine](https://langbot.app/docs/images/articles/source/images/rag-plugin/data-flow.png) If a RAG engine declares `DOC_PARSING` capability, it can handle parsing internally and skip the external Parser. ### 4. Host RAG API LangBot's core no longer executes RAG operations directly, but it still provides essential infrastructure through `RAGRuntimeService`, accessible to plugins via RPC: - **Embedding invocation**: `invoke_embedding()` — plugins don't need to manage model connections - **Vector database operations**: `vector_upsert()` / `vector_search()` / `vector_delete()` - **File access**: `get_knowledge_file_stream()` — read raw files from storage This means plugins can focus on RAG strategy (chunking algorithms, retrieval logic, re-ranking) while the host handles the "heavy" operations like vector storage and embedding models. ### 5. KnowledgeRetriever Deprecated The old `KnowledgeRetriever` component has been removed. If you had external knowledge base plugins, they'll need to migrate to `KnowledgeEngine`. The good news: the new API is cleaner and migration is straightforward. ## Building a RAG Engine Plugin ### Scaffold the Component ```bash lbp comp KnowledgeEngine ``` This generates the directory structure: ![Plugin directory structure](https://langbot.app/docs/images/articles/source/images/rag-plugin/dir-structure.png) ### Define Configuration Schemas The YAML manifest defines two configuration schemas: - **`creation_schema`**: Parameters filled when creating a knowledge base (e.g., chunk size, embedding model) - **`retrieval_schema`**: Parameters adjustable at retrieval time (e.g., score threshold, top-K) ```yaml spec: creation_schema: - name: chunk_size label: en_US: Chunk Size type: integer default: 500 - name: chunk_overlap label: en_US: Chunk Overlap type: integer default: 50 retrieval_schema: - name: score_threshold label: en_US: Score Threshold type: float default: 0.5 ``` LangBot **dynamically renders** creation and retrieval forms based on these schemas — different engines show different configuration fields. ### Declare Capabilities ```python class SimpleRag(KnowledgeEngine): @classmethod def get_capabilities(cls) -> list[str]: return [ KnowledgeEngineCapability.DOC_INGESTION, # Supports document upload # KnowledgeEngineCapability.DOC_PARSING, # Optional: built-in parsing ] ``` | Capability | Description | | --------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | `DOC_INGESTION` | Supports document upload and processing. UI shows "Documents" tab | | `DOC_PARSING` | Supports built-in document parsing. Without this, an external Parser plugin is required | ### Implement Core Methods The three essential methods: **Document Ingestion:** ```python async def ingest(self, context: IngestionContext) -> IngestionResult: # 1. Get file content (or use Parser's pre-parsed result) if context.parsed_content: text = context.parsed_content.text else: file_bytes = await self.plugin.get_knowledge_file_stream( context.file_object.storage_path ) text = file_bytes.decode('utf-8') # 2. Chunk the text chunks = self._split_text(text, chunk_size=500) # 3. Call host embedding model vectors = await self.plugin.invoke_embedding( embedding_model_uuid, chunks ) # 4. Write to host vector database await self.plugin.vector_upsert( collection_id, vectors, ids, metadata ) return IngestionResult( document_id=context.file_object.metadata.document_id, status=DocumentStatus.COMPLETED, chunks_created=len(chunks), ) ``` **Knowledge Retrieval:** ```python async def retrieve(self, context: RetrievalContext) -> RetrievalResponse: # 1. Generate query vector query_vectors = await self.plugin.invoke_embedding( embedding_model_uuid, [context.query] ) # 2. Vector search results = await self.plugin.vector_search( collection_id, query_vectors[0], top_k=5 ) # 3. Convert and return return RetrievalResponse(results=entries, total_found=len(entries)) ``` **Document Deletion:** ```python async def delete_document(self, kb_id: str, document_id: str) -> bool: deleted = await self.plugin.vector_delete( collection_id=kb_id, file_ids=[document_id] ) return deleted > 0 ``` ### Bridging External Services If your goal is to bridge Dify, RAGFlow, FastGPT, or other external services rather than building a custom RAG pipeline, the implementation is even simpler — **don't declare `DOC_INGESTION` capability** and only implement `retrieve`: ```python class DifyRAGEngine(KnowledgeEngine): @classmethod def get_capabilities(cls) -> list[str]: return [] # No document upload — managed externally async def retrieve(self, context: RetrievalContext) -> RetrievalResponse: # Call Dify/RAGFlow/FastGPT retrieval API ... ``` The knowledge base won't show a "Documents" tab — all content management happens in the external service. ## Building a Parser Plugin Parser development is even more concise: ```bash lbp comp Parser ``` Declare supported MIME types in the manifest: ```yaml spec: supported_mime_types: - application/pdf - application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.wordprocessingml.document ``` Implement the `parse` method: ```python class PdfParser(Parser): async def parse(self, context: ParseContext) -> ParseResult: # context.file_content: raw file bytes # context.mime_type: detected MIME type # context.filename: original filename text = extract_text_from_pdf(context.file_content) return ParseResult( text=text, sections=[ TextSection(content=page_text, heading=f"Page {i}", page=i) for i, page_text in enumerate(pages) ], ) ``` Parsers also support **cross-plugin invocation** — a RAG engine plugin can call another plugin's Parser: ```python result = await self.plugin.invoke_parser( plugin_author="author_name", plugin_name="plugin_name", storage_path=context.file_object.storage_path, mime_type=context.file_object.metadata.mime_type, filename=context.file_object.metadata.filename, ) ``` ## Upgrade Notes - Knowledge bases created in previous versions are **automatically migrated**. After updating, visit the Knowledge Base page to verify. - The `KnowledgeRetriever` component is deprecated. Existing plugins need to migrate to `KnowledgeEngine`. - Browse the [Plugin Marketplace](https://space.langbot.app/market?category=KnowledgeEngine) for available RAG engine plugins. ## The Bigger Picture v4.9.0's knowledge base refactoring is the latest step in LangBot's plugin-first evolution. From event handlers and tools in v4.0, to knowledge retrievers, to now full RAG engines and parsers — LangBot's core capabilities are progressively moving from "built-in" to "pluggable." The endgame: **LangBot's core provides pipeline orchestration and infrastructure; all business capabilities are plugin-driven.** Custom chunking strategy? Write a KnowledgeEngine plugin. PDF parsing? Write a Parser plugin. Bridge your company's internal knowledge service? Also a plugin. Knowledge, without borders. *** **Links:** - [v4.9.0 Release Notes](https://github.com/langbot-app/LangBot/releases/tag/v4.9.0) - [KnowledgeEngine Development Guide](https://langbot.app/docs/en/plugin/dev/components/knowledge-engine.md) - [Parser Development Guide](https://langbot.app/docs/en/plugin/dev/components/parser.md) - [Plugin Marketplace](https://space.langbot.app/market) - [LangBot Cloud](https://space.langbot.app/cloud) --- # How I Built a Multi-Platform AI Bot with Langflow's Drag-and-Drop Workflows Source: https://langbot.app/docs/en/articles/langflow-drag-and-drop-ai-bot How I Built a Multi-Platform AI Bot with Langflow's Drag-and-Drop Workflows This article is synchronized from the LangBot Blog.

[Read the canonical version](https://langbot.app/en/blog/n8n-multi-platform-ai-chatbot). Published 2025-12-03 · Author: LangBot Team ![How I Built a Multi-Platform AI Chatbot with n8n and LangBot](https://langbot.app/docs/images/articles/source/images/covers/n8n.png) Connecting n8n's visual workflow automation with LangBot's multi-platform bot framework creates a powerful, code-free way to deploy AI chatbots across QQ, WeChat, Discord, Telegram, Slack, and more. This tutorial shows you how to integrate these tools in minutes. ## What You'll Need - Python 3.8+ installed - Node.js 18+ installed - npm or npx available - 15 minutes of your time ## Deploy LangBot in 3 Commands LangBot is a production-ready bot framework that connects to multiple messaging platforms and AI services including Dify, FastGPT, Coze, OpenAI, Claude, and Gemini. Deploy it instantly: ```bash cd your-workspace mkdir -p langbot-instance && cd langbot-instance uvx langbot@latest ``` On first launch, LangBot initializes automatically. Open `http://127.0.0.1:5300` in your browser. ![LangBot initialization screen](https://langbot.app/docs/images/articles/external/70ee40a6d232-01-langbot-initialization.png) Register your admin account when prompted. You'll land on the dashboard where you can manage bots, models, pipelines, and integrations. ![LangBot dashboard](https://langbot.app/docs/images/articles/external/4f1f5c28fbfc-03-langbot-dashboard.png) ## Set Up n8n Workflow Automation n8n is an open-source automation platform with 400+ integrations and powerful AI capabilities. Launch it locally: ```bash cd your-workspace mkdir -p n8n-data export N8N_USER_FOLDER=$(pwd)/n8n-data npx n8n ``` Visit `http://127.0.0.1:5678` and create your owner account. ![n8n initial setup](https://langbot.app/docs/images/articles/external/12d0e04600c5-05-n8n-setup.png) ## Build Your AI Workflow Create a new workflow in n8n. You'll need two essential nodes: ![n8n workflow editor](https://langbot.app/docs/images/articles/external/e36d04ca4a5b-07-n8n-workflow-editor.png) ### Add the Webhook Trigger Click "+" on the canvas and add a **Webhook** node. Configure it: - **HTTP Method**: POST - **Response Mode**: Streaming (enables real-time chat responses) - **Authentication**: None (adjust for production) ![Webhook node configuration](https://langbot.app/docs/images/articles/external/03443176ae5c-08-n8n-webhook-node.png) ### Add the AI Agent Press Tab, navigate to the "AI" category, and select **AI Agent**. **Configure the Chat Model**: Click "Chat Model" and choose "OpenAI Chat Model". Add your credentials: - **API Key**: Your OpenAI API key (or compatible service key) - **Base URL**: For OpenAI alternatives like Claude, Gemini, or local models, update to your provider's endpoint **Critical Step - Fix the Prompt Source**: By default, the AI Agent expects a Chat Trigger node, which won't work with webhooks. Here's how to fix it: 1. Find "Source for Prompt (User Message)" in the AI Agent settings 2. Change from "Connected Chat Trigger Node" to "Define below" 3. Switch to "Expression" mode 4. Enter: `{{ $json.body }}` This expression pulls the user's message from the webhook request body. ![Configured webhook with AI Agent](https://langbot.app/docs/images/articles/external/621f3d526678-09-n8n-webhook-configured.png) ### Activate and Get Your Webhook URL Save the workflow and toggle the activation switch (top-right). Switch to the "Production URL" tab and copy the webhook URL: ``` http://localhost:5678/webhook/{your-webhook-id} ``` ## Connect LangBot to n8n Back in the LangBot dashboard, navigate to **Pipelines** and click the default "ChatPipeline". ![LangBot pipelines page](https://langbot.app/docs/images/articles/external/ef2b2f83bd16-04-langbot-pipelines.png) Switch to the **AI** tab and select "n8n Workflow API" from the Runner dropdown. Configure: - **Webhook URL**: Paste your n8n production webhook URL - **Authentication Type**: None (match your n8n webhook settings) - **Timeout**: 120 seconds - **Output Key**: response Click **Save**. ## Test It Out In the Pipeline editor, click "Debug Chat" on the left sidebar. Send a test message like "What is LangBot?" If everything works, you'll see LangBot send the message to n8n, where the AI Agent processes it and streams back a response. ## Troubleshooting **Error: "Expected to find the prompt in an input field called 'chatInput'"** This means the AI Agent is still configured for a Chat Trigger node. Fix it: 1. Open the AI Agent configuration 2. Set "Source for Prompt (User Message)" to "Define below" 3. Switch to Expression mode 4. Enter: `{{ $json.body }}` **Test Your Webhook Directly** Verify the webhook works with curl: ```bash curl -X POST http://localhost:5678/webhook/your-webhook-id \ -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ -d '{"body": "Hello, can you introduce yourself?"}' ``` You should receive streaming JSON with the AI's response. ## How the Integration Works Here's the complete flow: 1. User sends a message via QQ, WeChat, Discord, Telegram, Slack, LINE, or any LangBot-supported platform 2. LangBot's Pipeline receives the message and calls the n8n Workflow API 3. n8n's Webhook node captures the request and passes it to the AI Agent 4. The AI Agent uses OpenAI, Claude, Gemini, or your configured LLM to generate a response 5. n8n streams the response back to LangBot 6. LangBot delivers the response to the user on their original platform ## Why This Combination Works **LangBot + n8n** unlocks powerful capabilities: 1. **No-Code AI Logic**: Design conversation flows visually in n8n without touching code 2. **Multi-Platform Reach**: Deploy the same AI across QQ, WeChat, Discord, Telegram, Slack, LINE, DingTalk, and Lark simultaneously 3. **Flexible AI Models**: Swap between OpenAI GPT, Anthropic Claude, Google Gemini, Coze, Dify, local models, and more 4. **Rich Integrations**: Connect n8n's 400+ integrations - databases, APIs, Notion, Airtable, Google Sheets, Slack, and beyond 5. **Tool-Calling Agents**: AI Agent can trigger n8n tools like database queries, API calls, or custom functions 6. **Workflow Extensions**: Add preprocessing, content moderation, logging, or custom business logic **Perfect For**: - Enterprise customer support bots - Knowledge base Q\&A systems - Multi-platform community management - Task automation assistants - Unified chat interfaces for teams ## Next Steps Extend your bot further: - Integrate Dify or FastGPT for advanced RAG (retrieval-augmented generation) - Add vector database nodes (Pinecone, Qdrant, Weaviate) for knowledge retrieval - Connect business APIs for real-time data - Implement conversation memory and context tracking - Add content filtering and moderation workflows - Use Langflow or Coze for additional AI orchestration This integration gives you the flexibility of code-based AI frameworks like LangChain with the simplicity of visual workflow builders - all while reaching users across every major messaging platform.

Stay up to date with product updates, new features, and milestones. This article is synchronized from the LangBot Blog. [Read the canonical version](https://langbot.app/en/blog/welcome). Published 2026-02-17 · Author: LangBot Team ![LangBot Blog](https://langbot.app/docs/images/articles/source/images/covers/welcome.png) We're excited to launch the official LangBot blog! This is where we'll share product updates, new features, milestones, and insights from the LangBot team. ## What is LangBot? LangBot is an open-source LLM-native instant messaging bot platform. It supports multiple messaging platforms and model providers, with integrations for Dify, Alibaba Cloud Bailian, and other LLMOps platforms. LangBot also provides a WebUI for quick deployment and management. ## What to Expect On this blog, you'll find: - **Release Notes** - Detailed breakdowns of each new version - **Feature Spotlights** - Deep dives into new capabilities - **Milestones** - Project growth and community achievements - **Guides & Tips** - Best practices for getting the most out of LangBot ## Stay Connected - [GitHub](https://github.com/langbot-app/LangBot) - Star us and follow development - [Documentation](https://langbot.app/docs/en/insight/guide.md) - Full guides and API reference - [LangBot Home](https://langbot.app) - Main website Stay tuned for more updates! --- # Command Source: https://langbot.app/docs/en/deploy/command LangBot command-line reference: manage your AI bot instance, configuration, and runtime from the terminal. LangBot will regard messages starting with `!` as commands. Official provides [`EssentialCommands` plugin](https://space.langbot.app/market?author=langbot-team\&plugin=EssentialCommands), which includes commonly used commands. You can also develop your own command plugin, please refer to [Command Plugin Development](https://langbot.app/docs/en/plugin/dev/components/command.md). --- # Docker Deployment Source: https://langbot.app/docs/en/deploy/langbot/docker Deploy LangBot with Docker Compose on Windows, Linux, or macOS. ## 1. Prepare your environment - Install Git. - **Windows / macOS**: install and start Docker Desktop. - **Linux**: install Docker and Docker Compose. ## 2. Download the project Choose a regular directory that you can write to. On Linux, avoid system directories such as `/root` and `/etc`; we recommend a location under `/opt` so sandbox features are not blocked by security rules. Open a terminal in the directory where you want to store the project (PowerShell works on Windows), then run each line: ```bash git clone https://github.com/langbot-app/LangBot cd LangBot/docker ``` ### Mainland China: change the image source before startup (optional) If Docker Hub downloads are slow, edit `LangBot/docker/docker-compose.yaml` first. Replace every occurrence of `rockchin/langbot:latest` with: ```text docker.langbot.app/langbot-public/rockchin/langbot:latest ``` Save the file before starting. No other configuration changes are needed. ## 3. Start LangBot > info: > > On a server, use a firewall to restrict dashboard and runtime ports to trusted sources only. In the same terminal, run: ```bash docker compose --profile all up -d ``` The first startup downloads the container images. On Windows / macOS, keep Docker Desktop running. > info: > > The official Docker images come pre-equipped with minimal `ffmpeg` and `pilk` audio tools. Native voice transcoding (including SILK for WeChat) is supported out-of-the-box without extra host configuration. ## 4. Open the dashboard - **Local installation**: open `http://localhost:5300`. - **Server installation**: open `http://YOUR_SERVER_IP:5300` and make sure the firewall allows your device to access this port. Follow the on-screen initialization steps, then add a [model](https://langbot.app/docs/en/usage/models/readme.md) and a [bot](https://langbot.app/docs/en/usage/platforms/readme.md). ## Beta releases (optional) To try a beta instead of the stable setup above, download the [dev/4.11.x Compose file](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/langbot-app/LangBot/dev/4.11.x/docker/docker-compose.yaml) as `compose.yaml` in a separate writable directory. Manually change **every** `rockchin/langbot` image to `rockchin/langbot:beta`: Core (`langbot`), plugin runtime (`langbot_plugin_runtime`), and Box (`langbot_box`, when present). The `beta` tag is updated with every beta release. From that directory, start or update with: ```bash docker compose --profile all pull docker compose --profile all up -d ``` --- # Kubernetes Deployment Source: https://langbot.app/docs/en/deploy/langbot/kubernetes Deploy LangBot on Kubernetes for scalable, production-grade AI bot hosting across messaging platforms. > warning: > > Before you start, you should be familiar with: > > - Basic Kubernetes usage (`kubectl`, Namespace, Deployment, Service, PVC) > - How to configure inter-container networking and persistent storage The LangBot repository ships a ready-to-use Kubernetes manifest at [`docker/kubernetes.yaml`](https://github.com/langbot-app/LangBot/blob/master/docker/kubernetes.yaml). This page is the deployment guide for that manifest, focusing on the **Box sandbox runtime** under Kubernetes — the part that differs most from the Docker Compose deployment. ## Components The manifest creates the following components in the `langbot` namespace: | Component | Description | Ports | | ------------------------ | ------------------------------ | ---------------- | | `langbot` | Main app (WebUI + webhooks) | 5300 / 2280-2290 | | `langbot-plugin-runtime` | Plugin runtime | 5400 | | `langbot-box` | Box sandbox runtime (optional) | 5410 | Persistent storage: three PVCs (`langbot-data`, `langbot-plugins`, `langbot-plugin-runtime-data`). The Box workspace root uses a node `hostPath` (`/app/data/box`) rather than a PVC. ## Quick Start ```bash # Clone the repository git clone https://github.com/langbot-app/LangBot cd LangBot/docker # Deploy all components kubectl apply -f kubernetes.yaml # Check status kubectl get all -n langbot ``` Access the WebUI via port-forward: ```bash kubectl port-forward -n langbot svc/langbot 5300:5300 # Visit http://localhost:5300 ``` For production, expose via Ingress + TLS (the manifest already includes commented Ingress / LoadBalancer / NodePort examples — uncomment as needed). ### Using SeekDB The official image already includes the optional SeekDB dependencies, so no dedicated image or additional build argument is required. Set `vdb.use` to `seekdb` to enable it, or keep the default `chroma` when it is not needed. ## Box Sandbox Runtime `langbot-box` provides the code-sandbox capability backing the sandbox tools (`exec` / `read` / `write` / `edit` / `glob` / `grep`), the skill `activate` tool and skill add/edit, and stdio-mode MCP servers. It is **optional**: without it, LangBot still runs and the dashboard / skills list stay visible (read-only), but those features are disabled — in that case set `BOX__ENABLED=false` on `langbot`. ### How it works & the key constraint The official LangBot image ships **only the Docker CLI** (no dockerd, no nsjail). The Box runtime therefore creates sandbox containers by talking to the node's Docker daemon over the mounted socket (`/var/run/docker.sock`) — it does not run dockerd inside the Pod. This imposes a **key constraint**: the daemon that actually creates sandbox containers is the **node's Docker daemon**, which resolves bind-mount paths against the **node filesystem**. So the Box workspace root must be the **same absolute path** in all three places: 1. The actual path on the node 2. The mount path inside the `langbot-box` container 3. The mount path inside every sandbox container it spawns This is exactly why the manifest uses a `hostPath` (fixed at `/app/data/box`) instead of a regular PVC: a PVC path only exists inside the Pod's mount namespace, which the node's dockerd cannot see. `langbot` and `langbot-box` are also pinned to the **same node** via `podAffinity` so they share this hostPath. > warning: > > Because it relies on hostPath + same-node affinity, `langbot` does not support multi-replica horizontal scaling (same limitation as `ReadWriteOnce` PVCs). High availability requires a different architecture. ### Connection & configuration - `langbot` connects to the Box runtime over WebSocket, using the endpoint from the ConfigMap: `BOX__RUNTIME__ENDPOINT: ws://langbot-box:5410`. > info: > > The in-container default hostname is `langbot_box` (with an underscore), which is **not** a valid Kubernetes DNS name. The endpoint must therefore be set **explicitly** to the valid Service name `langbot-box` — you cannot rely on the in-container default. - The Box runtime does **not** read its own `box.local.*` / `BOX__*` environment variables; its configuration is read from `BOX__LOCAL__*` by `langbot` and pushed via the INIT RPC. So `BOX__LOCAL__HOST_ROOT` / `DEFAULT_WORKSPACE` / `SKILLS_ROOT` / `ALLOWED_MOUNT_ROOTS` are set on the `langbot` Deployment, where `HOST_ROOT` must match the `box-root` mountPath on both sides (`/app/data/box`). ### Security note Mounting the node's Docker socket grants the Box runtime (and any code executed in the sandbox) effective root on the node. Only deploy Box on nodes you trust for this workload — ideally a dedicated node pool isolated with taints/tolerations. For a stronger isolation boundary, switch `box.backend` to `e2b` (set `E2B_API_KEY`) and drop the `docker.sock` mount + hostPath. See [Sandbox configuration](https://langbot.app/docs/en/usage/sandbox/config.md). ### Verify Box is ready ```bash # Box runtime logs (should show the selected backend, e.g. "using backend: docker") kubectl logs -n langbot -l app=langbot-box -f # Confirm langbot connected to the Box runtime kubectl logs -n langbot -l app=langbot | grep -i "box runtime" ``` ## When you don't need the sandbox If you do not need the sandbox, remove the `langbot-box` Deployment / Service from the manifest and set `BOX__ENABLED=false` on the `langbot` Deployment to avoid connection-failure warnings in the logs. ## Further reading - [Docker Deployment](https://langbot.app/docs/en/deploy/langbot/docker.md) - [Sandbox docs](https://langbot.app/docs/en/usage/sandbox/readme.md) and [Sandbox configuration](https://langbot.app/docs/en/usage/sandbox/config.md) - [Skills docs](https://langbot.app/docs/en/usage/skills/readme.md) - Manifest source file: [`docker/kubernetes.yaml`](https://github.com/langbot-app/LangBot/blob/master/docker/kubernetes.yaml) in the repo --- # Manual Deployment Source: https://langbot.app/docs/en/deploy/langbot/manual Manually deploy LangBot from source. Step-by-step setup for the open-source AI bot platform on Linux, Windows and macOS. ## Installing the Main Program 1. Go to the [Release](https://github.com/langbot-app/LangBot/releases) page to download the latest version of the zip package (recommended) `langbot-xxx-all.zip` (do not download Source Code as it does not include WebUI). Extract it and open a command line (terminal) in the extracted directory. ![Download Release](https://langbot.app/docs/images/zh/deploy/langbot/manual/dl_release.png) 2. Install dependencies We use [uv](https://docs.astral.sh/uv/) to manage dependencies. ```bash pip install uv uv sync ``` The default installation does not include optional SeekDB support. If you need the SeekDB vector store or built-in embedding model, use: ```bash uv sync --extra seekdb ``` Embedded-mode platform support depends on the available `pylibseekdb` wheels; Apple Silicon currently requires macOS 15 or later. All other LangBot features can use the default `uv sync` installation. ### Optional Voice Transcoding Support (SILK / WeChat Native Voice) If you need native voice bubbles on platforms like WeChat (SILK encoding) or audio transcoding support, install system `ffmpeg` and the `audio` extra: - **System Dependency**: `ffmpeg` (macOS: `brew install ffmpeg`, Ubuntu/Debian: `sudo apt-get install -y ffmpeg`, Windows: `winget install Gyan.FFmpeg`) - **Python Extra**: ```bash uv sync --extra audio # or combine with seekdb uv sync --extra seekdb --extra audio ``` If transcoding dependencies are not installed, LangBot performs **graceful degradation** by delivering the audio as a playable audio file attachment rather than dropping the message. 3. Run the main program once to generate configuration files ```bash uv run main.py ``` You will see the following message: ``` _ ___ _ | | __ _ _ _ __ _| _ ) ___| |_ | |__/ _` | ' \/ _` | _ \/ _ \ _| |____\__,_|_||_\__, |___/\___/\__| |___/ ⭐️Open Source: https://github.com/langbot-app/LangBot 📖Documentation: https://langbot.app/docs The following files do not exist and have been automatically generated. Please modify the configuration files as needed and restart: - data/config.yaml ... ``` You can now use Ctrl+C to exit the program and continue to the [Configure Bots](https://langbot.app/docs/en/usage/platforms/readme.md) page. --- # 1Panel Deployment Source: https://langbot.app/docs/en/deploy/langbot/one-click/1panel One-click LangBot deployment with 1Panel.

Open the address, enter the administrator email and password, then click Initialize. After that, you can configure LangBot in the visual interface. Next, please continue to read the [Configure Messaging Platforms](https://langbot.app/docs/en/usage/platforms/readme.md) page. --- # aaPanel Deployment Source: https://langbot.app/docs/en/deploy/langbot/one-click/bt One-click LangBot deployment with aaPanel (BT Panel). Install the open-source AI bot platform through a web control panel. Deploy LangBot with one click using [aaPanel](https://www.bt.cn/new/download.html?r=dk_LangBot). > warning: > > If you already have aaPanel installed, please update to version **9.2.0** or higher ## Installing aaPanel > Recommended server systems (from aaPanel): Debian 12, Ubuntu 22, etc. > > This document assumes you have a server with a public IPv4 address. If you're using a home machine without a public IP, you can access the relevant pages through the internal network mentioned below. Open [aaPanel](https://www.bt.cn/new/download.html?r=dk_LangBot), use the Linux panel installation script provided by aaPanel official, and select the corresponding script based on your system. ![Install aaPanel](https://langbot.app/docs/images/zh/deploy/langbot/one-click/bt_install_01.png) Copy the corresponding script and paste it into your server to execute. ## Installing LangBot After waiting for a while, aaPanel installation will be complete. You'll see a message similar to this, copy the external panel address and open it in your browser. ![aaPanel Access Address](https://langbot.app/docs/images/zh/deploy/langbot/one-click/bt_install_02.png) When you first open it, you should see a popup for `Recommended Installation Suite`. You can skip this by closing it. Then click on `docker` in the sidebar. If it's your first time, you'll be prompted to install Docker and Docker Compose services. Click "Install Now" if prompted, or ignore if already installed. Then go to `Docker -> App Store`, search for `LangBot` (note the case sensitivity), click `Install`, and use the default configuration. After a short wait, you'll see a container named `langbot_XXXX` showing as `Running`. ![Create LangBot Container](https://langbot.app/docs/images/zh/deploy/langbot/one-click/bt_langbot_01.png) Click the red circle in the image above to view the running logs. ![View LangBot Container Logs](https://langbot.app/docs/images/zh/deploy/langbot/one-click/bt_langbot_02.png) You can see the external and internal access paths for the WebUI configuration page (visual configuration page). Copy the public address, for example `http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:5300` (where xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx is your aaPanel IP, and 5300 is the port number, which may vary as shown in the image). After opening it, enter your admin email and password, then click initialize. You can then proceed with configuration in the visual interface. If you prefer to directly modify JSON configuration files, you can look at the local mapping directory shown in the image above. Go to the installation directory, where the `data` folder is used to store configuration files, and the `plugins` folder is used for plugin-related files. Next, please continue reading the [Configure Message Platform](https://langbot.app/docs/en/usage/platforms/readme.md) page. --- # Deploy with Package Manager Source: https://langbot.app/docs/en/deploy/langbot/package Deploy LangBot with a package manager (uv/uvx). Quick install for the open-source LLM chatbot platform. > info: > > Supports Windows, Linux, Mac OS, etc. Recommended for testing environments and personal use scenarios; production-level environments please use [Docker Deployment](https://langbot.app/docs/en/deploy/langbot/docker.md). LangBot is packaged and released to PyPI. Please install [uv](https://docs.astral.sh/uv/getting-started/installation/), and then run the following command in an empty directory: ```bash uvx langbot@latest ``` This will set the current directory as the working directory, and you can access `http://localhost:5300` to start using it. ## Beta releases (optional) To try Beta 3 instead, use the command below. `--prerelease=allow` also permits prereleases of dependencies; `--refresh` refreshes cached package data. ```bash uvx --prerelease=allow --refresh langbot==4.11.0b3 ``` ## Optional SeekDB support The default installation uses Chroma and does not include the SeekDB Python SDK or native components. Install the `seekdb` extra only when you want to use SeekDB as the vector store or use its built-in embedding model: ```bash uvx --from 'langbot[seekdb]@latest' langbot ``` SeekDB embedded mode also requires a compatible `pylibseekdb` wheel. Apple Silicon currently requires macOS 15 or later; follow [oceanbase/seekdb#1324](https://github.com/oceanbase/seekdb/issues/1324) for the macOS 14 ARM64 support plan. Because of the current `pyseekdb` package metadata, the extra also fails to resolve on macOS 14 ARM64 for server-only use. These platform limits do not affect LangBot when SeekDB is not installed. ## Optional Voice Transcoding Support (SILK / WeChat Native Voice) If you need native voice bubbles on platforms like WeChat (SILK encoding) or audio transcoding support, make sure `ffmpeg` is installed on your system and launch LangBot with the `audio` extra: ```bash uvx --from 'langbot[audio]@latest' langbot # or combine with seekdb uvx --from 'langbot[seekdb,audio]@latest' langbot ``` If transcoding dependencies (`ffmpeg` / `pilk`) are not installed, LangBot automatically performs **graceful degradation** by delivering the audio as an audio file attachment. --- # System Environment Settings Source: https://langbot.app/docs/en/deploy/settings Complete reference for LangBot config.yaml: API, concurrency, databases, storage, plugins, MCP, monitoring, and Box. LangBot runtime configuration lives in `data/config.yaml`. The first startup generates it from the default template. The example below is kept aligned with [`src/langbot/templates/config.yaml`](https://github.com/langbot-app/LangBot/blob/master/src/langbot/templates/config.yaml). > info: > > Most self-hosted deployments only need to change public URLs, databases/vector stores, object storage, and Box Runtime.

OAuth redirects trust only this server-side value and `webhook_prefix`, never request `Host` or `Origin` headers. - `api.global_api_key` authenticates the HTTP Service API and built-in MCP server through `X-API-Key` or `Authorization: Bearer`, without a login session or a database-backed `lbk_` key. Empty means disabled. - `workspace.invitations.public_web_url` controls invitation links and falls back to `api.webui_url`, then `api.webhook_prefix`. Email delivery is optional; choose `resend` or `smtp`, or leave `provider` empty for link-only invitations. > warning: > > Treat the global API key, JWT secret, database credentials, S3 credentials, email-provider secrets, and E2B key as secrets. Prefer environment variables in production, never commit real values, and expose authenticated endpoints only over HTTPS. ### Admission and capacity limits - `concurrency` bounds running and queued pipeline work globally and per Workspace. - `webhooks` bounds enabled destinations per Workspace and instance-wide outbound requests. Full request admission fails open rather than retaining an unbounded task queue. - `cloud.directory` contains operational safety ceilings for one logical Cloud instance, not subscription entitlements. Oversized authoritative directory updates are rejected atomically instead of being truncated. Most self-hosted deployments should keep these defaults. - `system.blocking_executor`, `task_retention`, `session_retention`, `websocket_retention`, and `response_limits` bound process-local workers, cached records, sockets, and upstream output. - Values under `system.limitation` are instance limits; `-1` means unlimited. `force_box_session_id_template` is intended for SaaS sandbox confinement and should remain empty for normal self-hosting. ### Databases and vector stores - `database.use` selects SQLite or PostgreSQL. A non-empty `database.postgresql.url` overrides the structured connection fields and preserves TLS/query options. - PostgreSQL pool and timeout settings bound shared runtime resources. `database.cloud_migration.operator_dsn_env` names the environment variable containing the operator-only migration DSN; keep that role separate from the runtime role. - `vdb.use` selects the vector backend. Configure only the selected backend. `runtime_cache_limit` bounds process-local collection/index handles. - `vdb.use: seekdb` requires `uv sync --extra seekdb` for a source deployment or `uvx --from 'langbot[seekdb]@latest' langbot` for a package deployment. The official Docker/Kubernetes image already includes the dependency and needs no additional build argument. - `vdb.pgvector.use_business_database` reuses `database.postgresql`; `allowed_dimensions` controls the partial ANN indexes created by release migrations. - Valkey Search requires a Valkey server with the Search module, such as `valkey/valkey-bundle:9.1.0`. ### Storage, plugins, MCP, and monitoring - `storage.max_object_read_bytes` caps objects materialized into Core memory. Cleanup limits bound file scans, and `s3.max_concurrency` bounds synchronous boto3 operations delegated to worker threads. - `plugin.worker` defines hard per-installation and instance-wide budgets. Plugin manifests cannot raise them. Restart-window settings suppress Runtime restart storms. - `mcp.lifecycle_concurrency` bounds MCP startup/shutdown bursts. `mcp.stdio.enabled` can disable local stdio transports without disabling HTTP/SSE MCP servers. - Monitoring query and cleanup limits prevent large pages, exports, offsets, or backlogs from monopolizing memory or PostgreSQL. ### Box sandbox - `box.enabled` is the master switch. Disabling it also disables native sandbox tools, Skill add/edit, and stdio MCP, while read-only Skill listing and HTTP/SSE MCP remain available. - `box.backend` selects `local`, `docker`, `nsjail`, or `e2b`; `runtime.endpoint` connects an external WebSocket Runtime. - `box.limits` bounds sessions, processes, workspace scans, retained admission fences, and RPC file size. - `box.admission` is the Cloud v2 hard-admission policy. OSS defaults to `required: false`; pipelines, Workspace entitlements, and tool calls cannot relax Runtime-owned limits. - `box.local` controls workspace roots and mount allowlists. In Docker deployments, use an absolute `host_root` that the Box container can mount. - `box.default_memory_mb` is the default nsjail cgroup limit for each stdio MCP process. Node.js MCP servers usually need more memory than Python servers; too little commonly produces exit code `137`. ### LangBot Space `space.url`, `models_gateway_api_url`, and `oauth_authorize_url` control Space OAuth/API and MaaS endpoints. The two `disable_*` flags independently disable model service use and telemetry. ## Environment-variable overrides Convert a nested key to uppercase and join levels with double underscores: - `API__PORT` → `api.port` - `WORKSPACE__INVITATIONS__PUBLIC_WEB_URL` → `workspace.invitations.public_web_url` - `CONCURRENCY__PENDING_QUERIES_PER_WORKSPACE` → `concurrency.pending_queries_per_workspace` - `DATABASE__POSTGRESQL__POOL_SIZE` → `database.postgresql.pool_size` - `STORAGE__CLEANUP__MAX_FILES_PER_RUN` → `storage.cleanup.max_files_per_run` - `PLUGIN__WORKER__MAX_TOTAL_MEMORY_MB` → `plugin.worker.max_total_memory_mb` - `MCP__STDIO__ENABLED` → `mcp.stdio.enabled` - `BOX__DEFAULT_MEMORY_MB` → `box.default_memory_mb` At startup, LangBot applies these overrides and writes the resulting configuration to `data/config.yaml`. > info: > > In Docker deployments, set unified `BOX__*` variables on the `langbot` service. LangBot sends Box configuration to `langbot_box` through INIT RPC; variables set directly on `langbot_box` are not read. ## Optional telemetry Telemetry is enabled by default and can be disabled. Set the following in the existing `space` section of `data/config.yaml`, preserve other settings, and restart LangBot: ```yaml space: disable_telemetry: true ``` This switch disables product telemetry (including heartbeats and execution records) and survey fetching. Use an unquoted YAML boolean. To restore the default, set it to `false` and restart. Cloud Plugin Runtime operational health reporting is controlled separately by `plugin.runtime_ops.enabled`. If `SPACE__DISABLE_TELEMETRY` is set in your deployment, it overrides the file at startup; update or remove it too. Recreate containers when changing their environment. In Cloud, the instance operator controls this setting for every Workspace in the instance. It does not disable the bot or change privacy settings of messaging platforms, model providers or plugins. ### Per-event execution chains Current 4.11 execution telemetry defaults to full reporting of eligible executions, covering platform events, routing, Pipeline / Agent / plugin event processors, and the platform API and tool calls they cause. Each completed node generates a record, followed by a closure record when the execution ends; Space reconstructs the chain. These are the defaults in the same `space` section; restart after changing them: Platform events without a matching business route, or ignored by a `discard` rule with no matching plugin subscription, upload no execution records. Local logs and monitoring keep their existing behavior. Matching subscriptions, valid interaction resumptions and independent WebUI/API/Pipeline calls remain eligible, as do unavailable targets, execution failures or Pipeline filtering after a route matches. Eligibility is checked before sampling; neither Cloud's `all` nor failure fallback bypasses it. A Core upgrade is required. ```yaml space: execution_trace: all # off | failures | sampled | all execution_trace_sample: 20 # sampled: retain about 1/N successful executions by event hash telemetry_flush_seconds: 180 # Execution record buffer flush interval, in seconds ``` The community edition supports these modes: | Mode | Reporting behavior | | ---------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | `all` | Default; records nodes and closure records for every eligible execution | | `sampled` | Makes one stable hash decision from the event identity for all records of that execution; excluded executions that fail still report a closure, without recovering skipped nodes | | `failures` | Omits nodes for ordinary executions; reports closures only for failure, cancellation, timeout or a recorded chain failure reason | | `off` | Reports neither nodes nor closures; no independent window counters continue, while heartbeats remain controlled by `disable_telemetry` | WebUI debug runs are retained with a debug flag in `all`, `sampled` and `failures`; `off` or `disable_telemetry: true` stops their upload. **Cloud always uses `all` while product telemetry is enabled and does not apply the sampling mode configured above**; the instance operator can still disable product telemetry with the main switch. `execution_trace_sample` accepts integers from 1 to 100000; `telemetry_flush_seconds` accepts integers from 1 to 86400. Invalid values fall back to 20 and 180 respectively, and an invalid mode falls back to `all`. Sampling does not select exactly every N-th execution in sequence. Each flush sends at most 128 records and the buffer holds at most 512. Failed sends remain buffered for retries; a full buffer drops the oldest records, so full reporting does not guarantee complete delivery. Active Workspaces first send a heartbeat about 30 seconds after startup, then daily in ordinary deployments or every 5 minutes in Cloud runtime. Raw execution records are cleaned up in batches using a 30-day window; backlogs can delay deletion.

It will then understand LangBot's overall architecture, how each component is organized, how they connect at runtime, and how to configure the dev environment — without you having to explain it piece by piece. This page mirrors the `AGENTS.md` (with `CLAUDE.md` as a symlink) at each repository root, and serves as LangBot's "one-page onboarding" for developers and AI assistants. ## Project Overview LangBot is an open-source, LLM-native instant-messaging bot development platform. It provides an out-of-the-box IM bot development experience with built-in Agent, RAG, MCP and other LLM application capabilities, supports mainstream global IM platforms, and exposes rich APIs for custom development. LangBot has a comprehensive web frontend — almost every operation can be performed through it. - **Backend**: Python (`>=3.11,<4.0`), dependencies managed by `uv`; the web framework is Quart (the async flavour of Flask). Both the HTTP API and the pre-built frontend are served by the backend on `http://127.0.0.1:5300`. - **Frontend**: `web/` is a **Vite + React Router 7 + shadcn/ui + Tailwind CSS** SPA, managed by `pnpm` (note: this is **not** Next.js — the `dev` script is literally `vite`). - **Plugin system**: The Plugin SDK, CLI (`lbp`), Plugin Runtime, Box (sandbox) Runtime, and the entity/API definitions shared between LangBot and plugins all live in a separate repository: [`langbot-plugin-sdk`](https://github.com/langbot-app/langbot-plugin-sdk). LangBot depends on it via the version-pinned `langbot-plugin` package in `pyproject.toml`. ## Repository Layout ``` LangBot/ ├── main.py # Entrypoint shim -> langbot.__main__.main() ├── pyproject.toml # Python project + deps (uv), pins langbot-plugin== ├── src/langbot/ │ ├── __main__.py # Real entrypoint, CLI args (--standalone-runtime / --standalone-box / --debug) │ ├── pkg/ # Core backend package │ │ ├── api/ # HTTP API controllers + services (Quart) │ │ ├── core/ # App bootstrap, stages, task manager │ │ ├── platform/ # IM platform adapters, bot managers, session managers │ │ ├── provider/ # LLM providers, requesters, tool providers │ │ ├── pipeline/ # Pipelines, stages, query pool │ │ ├── plugin/ # Bridge to the plugin runtime (connector.py / handler.py) │ │ ├── box/ # Code-sandbox subsystem (Docker / nsjail / E2B backends) │ │ ├── skill/ # Skill subsystem │ │ ├── rag/ , vector/ # RAG + vector store │ │ ├── command/ # Built-in commands │ │ ├── persistence/ # ORM models + Alembic migrations (SQLite & PostgreSQL) │ │ ├── storage/ # Object/file storage abstractions │ │ ├── config/, entity/, discover/, utils/, telemetry/, survey/ │ ├── libs/ # Vendored SDKs (qq_official_api, wecom_api, etc.) │ └── templates/ # Config/component templates (e.g. templates/config.yaml) ├── web/ # Frontend SPA (Vite + React Router 7 + shadcn + Tailwind) └── docker/ # docker-compose deployment files ``` ## How Components Are Organized The core backend package `src/langbot/pkg/` is split into loosely-coupled submodules by responsibility: | Module | Responsibility | | -------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | `core` | Application lifecycle: startup stages load config, connect the DB, bring up subsystems in order, and manage background tasks. | | `platform` | Adapters for each IM platform (Discord, Telegram, QQ, WeCom, Lark, etc.); send/receive messages, manage bots and sessions. | | `provider` | LLM providers and requesters (OpenAI-compatible and native APIs), plus tool providers callable by the Agent. | | `pipeline` | The message-processing pipeline: routes one message through trigger, AI processing, output, and safety stages. | | `plugin` | Bridge between the LangBot main process and the plugin runtime — connect, exchange actions, forward events. | | `box` | Code-sandbox subsystem providing isolated code execution for skills/tools; selects Docker / nsjail / E2B by availability. | | `skill` / `rag` / `vector` | Skill, retrieval-augmented generation, and vector-store capabilities. | | `persistence` | ORM entity definitions and Alembic migrations; a single set of scripts works on both SQLite and PostgreSQL. | On the plugin side (defined in `langbot-plugin-sdk`, generated by `lbp comp`), components are organized around a single `BasePlugin`. Six component types are currently supported: - **Command**: user-triggered actions (e.g. `!weather tokyo`). - **Tool**: functions the LLM calls during Agent execution (e.g. fetch weather, query a database). - **EventListener**: handlers for events in the message pipeline (e.g. auto-reply, content filtering). - **KnowledgeEngine**: a custom knowledge-base retrieval/integration implementation used by RAG. - **Parser**: custom parsing of messages/content. - **Page**: a custom web page provided by the plugin, embeddable in the LangBot admin panel. Each plugin runs in its own process, with its lifecycle managed by the plugin runtime (discover → install deps → load → initialize → register components → ready → terminate). ## How Things Connect at Runtime ``` ┌──────────────┐ HTTP/API ┌──────────────┐ │ Browser/Web │ ────────────► │ │ │ (Vite SPA) │ :3000/origin │ LangBot │ └──────────────┘ │ backend │ │ (Quart) │ ┌───────────────────────────┤ :5300 ├─────────────────────────┐ │ stdio or WebSocket └──────────────┘ stdio or WebSocket │ ▼ ▼ ┌──────────────┐ ┌──────────────┐ │ Plugin │ separate process, │ Box │ code sandbox │ Runtime │ launches each plugin │ Runtime │ Docker/nsjail/E2B │ :5400 / :5401│ │ :5410 │ └──────────────┘ └──────────────┘ ``` - **Frontend ↔ Backend**: In dev, the frontend runs standalone on `:3000` and reaches the backend `:5300` via `VITE_API_BASE_URL` in `web/.env`; in production the frontend is pre-built into static files served by the backend on the same origin. - **Backend ↔ Plugin Runtime**: - When LangBot is **started directly** (not in a container), the backend **spawns** the runtime itself and talks over **stdio** (lightweight/personal use). stdio **cannot auto-reconnect** — after a disconnect you must restart LangBot; a common failure is an **orphan runtime process** from a previous backend still holding `5400`/`5401` — kill it and restart. - When LangBot runs in a **container**, it connects to a standalone runtime over **WebSocket** (production). Control port defaults to `5400`, debug port to `5401`. Config: `plugin.runtime_ws_url` in `data/config.yaml` (e.g. `ws://langbot_plugin_runtime:5400/control/ws`). - **Backend ↔ Box Runtime**: The Box subsystem connects to the Box runtime over a control channel (default port `5410`), which executes sandboxed code in Docker / nsjail / E2B. Config (`box:` section of `data/config.yaml`): `box.enabled` (master switch), `box.backend` (`'local'`/`'docker'`/`'nsjail'`/`'e2b'`), `box.runtime.endpoint` (external Box runtime URL, e.g. `ws://127.0.0.1:5410`; empty = local auto-managed). As with the plugin runtime, set that endpoint and start with `--standalone-box` to connect to an external Box runtime. - The full guide for debugging the runtime, CLI and SDK is in [Debugging Plugin Runtime, CLI, SDK](https://langbot.app/docs/en/develop/plugin-runtime.md); detailed flags and architecture are in the `langbot-plugin-sdk` repo's `AGENTS.md`. ## Development Environment Setup Full guide: [Development Configuration](https://langbot.app/docs/en/develop/dev-config.md). Summary: ### Backend ```bash pip install uv uv sync --dev # uv creates a .venv/ for you; point your editor's interpreter at it uv run main.py # serves API + frontend on http://127.0.0.1:5300 ``` On first run the config file is generated at `data/config.yaml`. SQLite is the default (zero setup); PostgreSQL is supported. Migrations run automatically on startup. ### Frontend Requires Node.js and [pnpm](https://pnpm.io/installation). ```bash cd web cp .env.example .env # Windows: copy .env.example .env pnpm install pnpm dev # http://127.0.0.1:3000 (npm install / npm run dev also work) ``` `pnpm dev` reads `VITE_API_BASE_URL` from `web/.env` so the dev frontend can reach the backend on `:5300`. ### Code Formatting CI runs lint + format checks. Install the pre-commit hooks so the same checks run locally before each commit: ```bash uv run pre-commit install ``` ### Database Migrations After changing ORM models, generate a migration: ```bash # Run from the project root (requires data/config.yaml) uv run python -m langbot.pkg.persistence.alembic_runner autogenerate "describe your change" ``` `autogenerate` detects schema changes (add/drop columns and tables, type changes), but **data migrations** (e.g. mutating JSON field contents) must be hand-written into the generated script. `env.py` sets `render_as_batch=True`, so SQLite's ALTER TABLE limits are handled automatically — no per-database branching needed. Migrations execute automatically on startup. ## Development Standards - LangBot is a global project: **all code comments and docstrings must be in English**, and every user-facing string must support **i18n** (`en_US` + `zh_Hans` at minimum, plus `ja_JP` where the repo already has it). - LangBot is adopted in both toC and toB scenarios — always consider compatibility and security. - **Commit message format**: `(): ` - `type`: one of `feat`, `fix`, `docs`, `style`, `refactor`, `perf`, `test`, `chore`, etc. - `scope`: the affected package/module/file/class. - `subject`: a concise description of the change. ## Agent-Facing Surfaces (MCP + Skills) LangBot is built to be **agent-friendly**, with three agent-facing surfaces that are kept in lockstep with the HTTP API: 1. **MCP server** — `src/langbot/pkg/api/mcp/` exposes a curated subset of the API as MCP tools at `/mcp` (API-key authenticated, including `api.global_api_key` from config.yaml). `server.py` defines the tools (calling the service layer directly); `mount.py` is the ASGI dispatcher. 2. **In-repo skills** — the `skills/` directory is the **single source of truth** for all LangBot agent skills (plugin dev, core dev, deployment, e2e, MCP operations). Docs and the landing page link here rather than copying content. 3. **API-key auth** — `api.global_api_key` (config.yaml) authenticates the API and MCP without a login session; see `docs/API_KEY_AUTH.md`. > **Maintenance rule (important).** When you add, remove, or change an HTTP API > endpoint that should be agent-accessible, you MUST update **both** the matching > MCP tool in `src/langbot/pkg/api/mcp/server.py` **and** the relevant skill under > `skills/` (especially `skills/skills/langbot-mcp-ops`). API, MCP tools, and > skills are one system — drift between them is a bug. ## Some Principles - Keep it simple, stupid. - Entities should not be multiplied unnecessarily. - 八荣八耻 (Eight Honors and Eight Shames): Shame in guessing interfaces; honor in carefully checking them. Shame in vague execution; honor in seeking confirmation. Shame in assuming business logic; honor in human confirmation. Shame in inventing interfaces; honor in reusing existing ones. Shame in skipping verification; honor in proactive testing. Shame in breaking architecture; honor in following conventions. Shame in pretending to understand; honor in honest ignorance. Shame in blind changes; honor in careful refactoring. --- # Component Architecture Source: https://langbot.app/docs/en/develop/comp-arch ![Component Architecture Diagram](https://langbot.app/docs/images/zh/develop/comp_arch/develop_comp_arch_1.png) --- # Development Configuration Source: https://langbot.app/docs/en/develop/dev-config LangBot is divided into frontend and backend. The frontend is developed using Vite + React Router + shadcn, and the backend is developed using Quart (an asynchronous version of Flask). ## Backend The code is located in the `pkg` directory and is started by the `main.py` file in the root directory. Install dependencies, we use uv to manage dependencies. ```bash pip install uv uv sync --dev ``` Start the backend ```bash uv run main.py ``` At this point, the configuration file will be automatically generated in the `data/config.yaml` file. ## Frontend The code is located in the `web` directory and requires Node.js and [pnpm](https://pnpm.io/installation). Copy `.env.example` to `.env` and fill in the values. - Usage in Linux and other environments ```bash cp .env.example .env ``` - Usage in Windows environments ```bash copy .env.example .env ``` Install dependencies and start the frontend ```bash pnpm install pnpm dev # If pnpm is not installed, you can also use npm to solve dependencies and start npm install npm run dev ``` Then according to the output information, visit `http://127.0.0.1:3000` to view the standalone frontend page. > When using \`pnpm dev\` to start locally, the environment variable \`VITE\_API\_BASE\_URL\` will be automatically used by the frontend to ensure that the frontend can access the \`5300\` port of the locally running backend.: > > In production environments, the frontend will be precompiled into static files and provided by the backend, and the frontend will automatically access the backend address on the same domain. ## Code Formatting The repository contains lint and format check workflows, and your code will be automatically checked when you push it. Please configure pre-commit to check your code locally before submitting. ```bash uv run pre-commit install ``` ## API Documentation We will write API documentation in APIFox before developing each interface. Please refer to [API Documentation(Chinese)](https://ok52vhsenr.apifox.cn/). ## Database Migrations LangBot uses [Alembic](https://alembic.sqlalchemy.org/) to manage database migrations, supporting both SQLite and PostgreSQL seamlessly without database-specific branching. ### Migration File Location ``` src/langbot/pkg/persistence/alembic/versions/ ``` ### Creating a New Migration The recommended way is to use **autogenerate**, which compares ORM models against the database schema and generates a migration script: ```bash # Run from the project root (requires data/config.yaml) uv run python -m langbot.pkg.persistence.alembic_runner autogenerate "describe your changes" ``` The generated file will appear in `src/langbot/pkg/persistence/alembic/versions/`. Review and edit the generated script to confirm the changes are correct before committing. > info: > > Autogenerate can automatically detect column additions/removals, table changes, type changes, etc. However, for **data migrations** (e.g., modifying JSON field content), you need to manually add code to the generated script. You can also create migration files manually, following the naming convention `NNNN_description.py`: ```python """Describe your migration Revision ID: 0003_add_bot_description Revises: 0002_sample Create Date: 2026-04-08 """ from alembic import op import sqlalchemy as sa revision = '0003_add_bot_description' down_revision = '0002_sample' # Points to the previous migration's revision branch_labels = None depends_on = None def upgrade() -> None: # Schema change (works on both SQLite and PostgreSQL) op.add_column('bots', sa.Column('description', sa.String(512), server_default='')) def downgrade() -> None: op.drop_column('bots', 'description') ``` ### Migration Patterns **Schema Changes (add/drop columns, create tables)** ```python def upgrade() -> None: # Add a column op.add_column('table_name', sa.Column('new_col', sa.String(255), server_default='')) # Create a new table op.create_table( 'new_table', sa.Column('id', sa.Integer, primary_key=True, autoincrement=True), sa.Column('name', sa.String(255), nullable=False), ) ``` > info: > > `env.py` sets `render_as_batch=True`, which makes Alembic automatically handle SQLite's ALTER TABLE limitations (via temporary table rebuild). No need to branch on database type. **Data Migrations (read and modify data)** ```python import json def upgrade() -> None: conn = op.get_bind() rows = conn.execute(sa.text("SELECT uuid, config FROM pipelines")).fetchall() for row in rows: config = json.loads(row[1]) if isinstance(row[1], str) else row[1] config.setdefault('ai', {})['new_key'] = 'default_value' conn.execute( sa.text("UPDATE pipelines SET config = :cfg WHERE uuid = :uuid"), {"cfg": json.dumps(config), "uuid": row[0]} ) ``` ### How It Works Migrations run automatically when LangBot starts — no manual commands needed: 1. On first startup, the baseline version is automatically stamped (marking the existing database) 2. On subsequent startups, all pending migrations are applied (`alembic upgrade head`) ### CI Testing The repository includes a `test-migrations.yml` workflow that automatically tests migration scripts on both SQLite and PostgreSQL when `persistence/` related files change. ### CLI Tool ```bash # Autogenerate migration (compare ORM models against DB) uv run python -m langbot.pkg.persistence.alembic_runner autogenerate "description" # Upgrade database uv run python -m langbot.pkg.persistence.alembic_runner upgrade # Show current revision uv run python -m langbot.pkg.persistence.alembic_runner current # Stamp revision (without running migrations) uv run python -m langbot.pkg.persistence.alembic_runner stamp head ``` --- # Debugging Plugin Runtime, CLI, SDK Source: https://langbot.app/docs/en/develop/plugin-runtime > info: > > Plugin Runtime, CLI, SDK are open sourced at: Since LangBot depends on entities defined in langbot-plugin-sdk, we recommend opening VS Code in a new directory, placing both LangBot and langbot-plugin-sdk (git clone ) as subdirectories within it. The directory structure should look like: ```bash langbot-projects ├── LangBot ├── langbot-plugin-sdk ``` Enter the LangBot directory and install dependencies: ```bash cd LangBot uv sync --dev ``` At this point, uv will automatically create a virtual environment (.venv) for you. If your editor asks whether to use this virtual environment, please select `Yes`. ![](https://langbot.app/docs/images/zh/develop/confirm_venv.png) If the prompt does not appear, please manually set the Python interpreter path to the interpreter in the venv from the bottom-right corner. Then open the terminal at the bottom of VS Code, which will automatically activate the venv. Or you can manually activate this virtual environment: ```bash # Please modify the command according to your .venv path source .venv/bin/activate ``` ## Start Plugin Runtime ```bash python -m langbot_plugin.cli.__init__ rt ``` Plugin Runtime accepts the following parameters: - `--debug-only`: Do not start plugins in the `data/plugins` directory, only allow loading plugins through debug connections. - `--ws-debug-port`: Debug port to listen on, default is `5401`. - `--ws-control-port`: Control port to listen on (for LangBot main program connection), default is `5400`. - `-s`: Use `stdio` to accept control connections. **Use only in production environment**. - `--skip-deps-check`: To ensure that all plugin dependencies are installed, the Runtime will check and install all installed plugin dependencies on every startup. Use this parameter to disable this check. ### Make LangBot Use Your Locally Modified langbot-plugin-sdk If you have modified things like message entities or plugin data definitions, you need to update them in the LangBot environment to ensure data format compatibility during runtime. In a **terminal with the LangBot directory's virtual environment (.venv) activated**, switch to the langbot-plugin-sdk directory and run: ```bash uv pip install . ``` This will install your modified langbot-plugin-sdk into LangBot's environment. ### Make LangBot Connect to This Runtime Configure `plugin.runtime_ws_url` to `ws://localhost:5400/control/ws` in LangBot's `data/config.yaml`. ```yaml plugin: runtime_ws_url: ws://localhost:5400/control/ws ``` In a terminal with LangBot's virtual environment activated, start the main program directly with Python and add `--standalone-runtime` (for example, `python main.py --standalone-runtime`). Calling the current virtual environment's Python directly does not resync dependencies, so it does not overwrite the local langbot-plugin-sdk you just installed with the remote version.\ Restart LangBot, and it will connect to this runtime using WebSocket. `LANGBOT_PLUGIN_RUNTIME_CONTROL_TOKEN` is optional by default. When it is unset on both LangBot and Runtime, the local OSS control connection is established without a token. To protect an exposed port 5400, configure the same high-entropy value of at least 32 characters on both sides. Once the Runtime configures a token, it rejects LangBot clients without the same value; configuring only the LangBot side does not enable authentication on the Runtime. ### Debug a plugin with `lbp run` Multi-Workspace versions no longer allow a debug plugin to join the Runtime merely by reaching port `5401`. Every Workspace has a separate expiring debug key: 1. Make sure LangBot and Plugin Runtime are running and connected as described above. 2. On the LangBot WebUI Plugins page, open “Debug Info” and copy the debug URL and debug key. This requires resource-management permission in the current Workspace. 3. Add the values to the plugin project's `.env`: ```bash DEBUG_RUNTIME_WS_URL=ws://localhost:5401/plugin/debug/ws PLUGIN_DEBUG_KEY= ``` 4. Start the plugin from its project directory: ```bash python -m langbot_plugin.cli.__init__ run ``` Instead of storing the key in `.env`, you may run `python -m langbot_plugin.cli.__init__ run --plugin-debug-key ''`. Keys are scoped to one Workspace and expire after two hours. Fetch a new key after it expires, the Runtime restarts, or you switch Workspaces. A client that configures only `DEBUG_RUNTIME_WS_URL` is rejected. ## Start Box Runtime in standalone mode Box Runtime follows the same control-connection rules as Plugin Runtime: a token is optional for OSS standalone development, and the connection works when `LANGBOT_BOX_CONTROL_TOKEN` is unset on both sides: ```bash # Terminal 1: langbot-plugin-sdk directory python -m langbot_plugin.cli.__init__ box ``` Point LangBot's `data/config.yaml` at the local Box Runtime: ```yaml box: enabled: true backend: local runtime: endpoint: ws://127.0.0.1:5410 ``` ```bash # Terminal 2: LangBot directory python main.py --standalone-runtime --standalone-box ``` To protect an exposed port 5410, set the same high-entropy, non-whitespace value of at least 32 characters before starting each process: ```bash export LANGBOT_BOX_CONTROL_TOKEN='' ``` Once Box Runtime configures a token, it rejects LangBot clients without the same value. Configuring only the LangBot side does not enable authentication on Box Runtime; an explicitly configured value shorter than 32 characters is still rejected by both sides. Do not commit the real value to configuration or Git. ## langbot-plugin-sdk Architecture This codebase contains the following: - `langbot_plugin.api`: Plugin-related entities and API definitions. - `langbot_plugin.assets`: Plugin templates. - `langbot_plugin.cli`: Plugin development CLI tools. - `langbot_plugin.entities`: Plugin system-related entities not defined in API. - `langbot_plugin.runtime`: Plugin runtime and underlying communication (stdio and websocket) implementation. ## `lbp` CLI Tool The CLI tool provides Runtime startup, plugin initialization, plugin component management, Marketplace interaction, and other functions. For detailed program entry points, please see [`langbot_plugin.cli.__init__`](https://github.com/langbot-app/langbot-plugin-sdk/blob/main/src/langbot_plugin/cli/__init__.py). --- # Enterprise Support Source: https://langbot.app/docs/en/enterprise/overview Official issue triage, security updates, and procurement-ready contracts and invoices for open-source LangBot.

A first response means a person has confirmed the scope, requested more information, or given an initial classification. Automated emails don't count. > warning: > > A first response is not a fix or recovery. Resolution depends on severity, reproducibility, and whether the issue belongs to LangBot Core. - **Hours**: 09:00–18:00 Beijing time on mainland China business days, including make-up working days; public holidays are skipped. - **Counting**: requests submitted during hours are counted from submission; requests outside hours start at 09:00 on the next business day. - **Example**: submitted Friday 14:00 → response by Tuesday 14:00. Submitted Friday 20:00 → response by Wednesday 09:00. ## Supported versions - Support covers the **current stable release** of LangBot Core. For older versions we first recommend upgrading, and confirming a defect may require reproducing it on the current release. - No backports, LTS branches or private patches. - Plugins and third-party components are outside Core maintenance. ## Consultations and allowances | | Enterprise Support | Enterprise Assurance | | ------------------------------------------------------ | ------------------ | -------------------- | | Annual usage review (60 min) | 1 | 1 | | Remote technical consultation (60 min, by appointment) | — | 4 | Unused sessions don't roll over. Enterprise Support covers ticket triage, documentation guidance and defect confirmation, not ongoing remote troubleshooting of your environment. ## Instance registration (Assurance) - Assurance covers **1 registered production instance**. Registration only defines support scope; it doesn't limit deployments permitted by Apache 2.0 and requires no license key or telemetry. - We record version, deployment overview, purpose and contacts. Update the registration through a ticket when you replace the instance. ## Security information - Quarterly digests are based on public release and security information. - Critical security notices are based on advisories confirmed by the maintainers; we don't determine whether your environment is affected. - The annual status summary (Assurance) is based on your registered version and public information. It is not a security audit, penetration test or compliance certification. ## Working principles - One ticket per issue; duplicates may be merged. - The priority fix queue has no fixed deadline, and priority roadmap review is not a development or scheduling commitment. - Support runs through tickets only, not one-to-one group chats. ## Service term Language, contacts, service dates and the applicable version of this document are set in the contract. After expiry no new requests are accepted; open tickets are triaged or handed over as agreed. You can keep using open-source LangBot after expiry. --- # Submit a ticket Source: https://langbot.app/docs/en/enterprise/submit-ticket How subscribers report issues or book consultations in LangBot Space. > idea: > > [Open LangBot Space tickets →](https://space.langbot.app/profile?tab=tickets\&language=en) ## Steps 1.

Core buffers records within a fixed limit and uploads them in background batches; Space reconstructs the execution chain. The current sender no longer uses legacy feature window counters or assembles a complete chain locally. **Platform events without a matching business route, or whose selected route is `discard` with no matching plugin subscription, report neither nodes nor a closure.** Disabled routes and event-type/filter mismatches are included; local logs and monitoring keep their existing behavior. A matching plugin event processor still makes an execution eligible when the primary route misses. Unmatched and discarded branches do not contribute telemetry. After a business route matches, unavailable targets, execution failures, timeouts and filtering inside a Pipeline remain reportable. Valid interaction callbacks resuming an original processor, WebUI/API debug runs and independent calls explicitly targeting a Pipeline also remain eligible; invalid callbacks do not independently qualify. Eligibility takes precedence over sampling and failure fallback, including in Cloud. This requires a Core upgrade and does not retroactively change older clients or historical records. | Data | Contents | | ------------------------ | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | Identity and environment | `instance_id`, `workspace_uuid`, `event_id`, version, edition, timestamp, debug flag and sampling information | | Execution nodes | Operation identifiers, processing mode, outcome, start/end times, parent/child relationships and sequence, routing target and Runner run identity for platform events, routing, Pipeline, Runner, platform API and tool calls | | Chain closure | Overall outcome, closure reason (`completed` when the inbound event and all downstream work queued for it finished; `merged` when message aggregation folded it into another chain, with `merged_into`; `timeout` when handed-off work did not report back within 30 minutes), duration, node count, nodes omitted by sampling, origin, model name, adapter, Runner and pipeline plugins | | Feature usage | Per-execution integer counters in `features`: tool calls by source, sandbox executions and errors, knowledge-base retrieval attempts, skill activations and LLM attempts (including retries). Zero counters are omitted; each counter is capped at 65,535. No tool arguments, outputs or skill names are added by these counters | | Bound resources | Identifiers or names of plugins, MCP servers, knowledge bases, tools and their sources, skills, models and platform APIs granted to a Pipeline or Agent, plus selector fields, capabilities and permission flags; fields depend on the execution path | | Errors | A complete diagnostic description: exception class, message, the `Caused by` chain and the file, line and function of the last traceback frames (no source lines), capped at about 4,000 characters while keeping both ends. Common credential shapes (`sk-` keys, Bearer tokens, `api_key=`/`token=`/`password=` pairs, secret URL parameters) and email addresses are masked before upload | Bound resources describe what an execution was configured or authorized to use. **They do not establish that those resources were actually called, searched or consumed.** Routing targets use `type:uuid`, not user-defined rule names. `model_name` identifies the first LLM invoked in an execution, across Pipeline, Agent and event-processor paths, truncated to 128 UTF-8 bytes. Feature counters are included only in the existing chain closure; disabling telemetry or leaving `space.url` empty disables counting as well as upload. Execution records do not intentionally collect message bodies, prompts, model replies, platform user/group IDs, or tool/API arguments or results. **Credential masking matches common formats and is not reliable redaction: exception messages (such as raw provider error text) and user-defined model, skill or resource names may still contain sensitive information or user content.** Instance and Workspace identifiers may be associated with deployments or accounts; these records are neither anonymous nor guaranteed to contain no user content. ### Sampling and debug runs The community edition controls execution reporting with `space.execution_trace`: | Mode | Behavior | | --------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ | | `all` (default) | Records nodes and closure records for every eligible execution | | `sampled` | Makes one stable hash decision from the event identity at ingress; retains approximately `1/N` successful executions, where N is `space.execution_trace_sample` (default 20); every record of an execution shares the decision | | `failures` | Omits nodes for ordinary executions and reports a closure only for failure, cancellation, timeout or a recorded chain failure reason | | `off` | Disables node and closure records; no independent window counters continue, while Workspace heartbeats remain controlled by the main telemetry switch | If an execution excluded by `sampled` fails, its closure is still reported. Previously skipped nodes are not recovered, so a failure may have a summary without a complete chain. WebUI debug runs are retained in `all`, `sampled` and `failures` with a debug flag; neither `off` nor the main opt-out permits their upload. **Cloud always uses `all` while product telemetry is enabled**, so sampling successful executions does not distort activity counts. The instance operator can still disable the product telemetry described here with `space.disable_telemetry`. ### Delivery and completeness Records are sent to `POST /api/v1/telemetry`. The default flush interval is 180 seconds, configurable through `space.telemetry_flush_seconds`. Each flush sends at most 128 records and the memory buffer holds at most 512. Records are removed only after an accepted send; failed sends are retried, and a full buffer drops the oldest records. Shutdown attempts to flush remaining records within a limited time. Network failures, timeouts and server errors do not fail business execution because telemetry failed; upload failure details are logged at DEBUG level. Sampling, buffer overflow, process exit or expired cross-task associations can leave incomplete chains. **Full reporting does not guarantee complete delivery.** A successful platform API response does not prove that a user read a message. ## Heartbeats, surveys and older-version data Active Workspaces first send an `instance_heartbeat` about 30 seconds after startup. Ordinary deployments send daily thereafter; Cloud runtime refreshes every 5 minutes. Heartbeats include deployment platform, database/vector-database kinds, sandbox configuration and availability, adapter types and counts of resources such as bots, Pipelines, plugins, Agents, event processors, event bindings, MCP servers, knowledge bases and skills. They do not intentionally include resource contents or connection credentials. Optional in-app surveys send the survey ID, submitted answers, instance ID, version and completion/dismissal status. Survey answers are content voluntarily provided by users. Space remains compatible with older `query` and `feature_execution` data. Legacy query records may contain model names, feature counters, user-defined skill/MCP names and raw traceback text. The current execution-record restrictions neither sanitize historical data nor change uploads from older clients still running. ## Storage and retention Data is stored by the configured Space service. Execution lists, chain details and summaries are restricted to authorized telemetry management users or service clients. Raw `execution_node`, `execution_chain` and legacy `feature_execution` records are periodically removed in bounded batches using a 30-day retention window; backlogs or service interruptions can delay deletion. This does not change retention for legacy query telemetry, heartbeats, surveys, accounts or service logs. Opting out stops future reporting but does not delete existing server records. For historical data requests, contact or your Space administrator. ## Disabling telemetry Set the following in the existing `space` section of `data/config.yaml`, preserve other settings, and restart LangBot: ```yaml space: disable_telemetry: true ``` This switch disables the product telemetry described on this page and survey fetching. Use an unquoted YAML boolean. To restore the default, set it to `false` and restart. If `SPACE__DISABLE_TELEMETRY` is set in your deployment, it overrides the file at startup; update or remove it too. Recreate containers when changing their environment. In Cloud, the instance operator controls this setting for every Workspace in the instance. It does not disable the bot or change privacy settings of messaging platforms, model providers or plugins. Cloud Plugin Runtime operational health reporting is separate from product telemetry. It is controlled by `plugin.runtime_ops.enabled` and is not disabled by `space.disable_telemetry`.

Currently covers Docker deployment issues. This page collects practical troubleshooting paths for common issues. It currently covers Docker deployment problems. More sections for models, bot adapters, MCP, and Skills can be added later. The commands below assume you are running them from `LangBot/docker`. ## Docker Deployment ### Preflight Checks If you need the sandbox, stdio MCP hosting, or Skill add/edit features, start LangBot with the `all` profile: ```bash docker compose --profile all up -d ``` Check service status: ```bash docker compose --profile all ps ``` You should see: - `langbot`: WebUI and backend service, exposing `5300` and `2280-2285` by default. - `langbot_plugin_runtime`: plugin runtime, exposing `5401` by default. - `langbot_box`: Box Runtime control plane, used to create sandbox containers. If you only run `docker compose up`, `langbot_box` is not started. stdio MCP, Skill add/edit, and some sandbox-dependent features will be unavailable. ### Port Conflicts #### Symptoms - `docker compose up` fails with a port binding error. - The WebUI cannot be opened at `http://127.0.0.1:5300`. - Logs contain `port is already allocated` or `bind: address already in use`. #### Fix Find the process using the port. Linux/macOS: ```bash lsof -i :5300 lsof -i :5401 ``` Windows PowerShell: ```powershell Get-NetTCPConnection -LocalPort 5300,5401 | Select-Object LocalPort,OwningProcess Get-Process -Id ``` If it is an old LangBot, plugin runtime, or test process, stop it and start LangBot again: ```bash docker compose --profile all up -d ``` If the process cannot be stopped, change the matching port mapping in `docker-compose.yaml`. ### Box Runtime Is Not Available #### Symptoms - The UI or logs show `No sandbox backend (Docker/nsjail/E2B) is ready`. - stdio MCP servers are unavailable. - Skills cannot be installed, activated, or edited. #### Common Causes - LangBot was not started with `--profile all` or `--profile box`. - `langbot_box` is not running. - Docker Desktop or the current user cannot access Docker. - On Linux, the current user does not have permission to access the Docker socket. #### Fix Make sure `langbot_box` is running: ```bash docker compose --profile all ps docker logs langbot_box --tail 100 ``` Make sure Docker itself works: ```bash docker info ``` On Linux, add the current user to the `docker` group if needed, then log in again: ```bash sudo usermod -aG docker $USER newgrp docker docker info ``` Then recreate the containers: ```bash docker compose --profile all up -d --force-recreate ``` ### Box Root Mount Fails #### Symptoms - Logs contain `host_path is outside allowed_mount_roots`. - Logs contain `host_path must point to an existing directory on the host`. - On Docker Desktop, the Box root is resolved to `/run/desktop/...` and is rejected. - stdio MCP or Skill sandbox containers cannot be created. #### Cause `langbot_box` creates sandbox containers through the host Docker socket. Those sandbox containers see host paths, so the Box root path must be identical on the host and inside the container, and it must be under `allowed_mount_roots`. #### Fix Set an absolute path that Docker can mount and that Box security checks can accept in `LangBot/docker/.env`: ```dotenv LANGBOT_BOX_ROOT=/var/lib/langbot/box ``` On Windows Docker Desktop, use a path visible to the Docker VM, for example: ```dotenv LANGBOT_BOX_ROOT=/host_mnt/c/Users//code/projects/langbot/LangBot/docker/data/box ``` Make sure the directory exists, then recreate the containers: ```bash docker compose --profile all up -d --force-recreate ``` If you previously edited `docker/data/config.yaml` manually, check that it points to the same root: ```yaml box: local: host_root: /host_mnt/c/Users//code/projects/langbot/LangBot/docker/data/box allowed_mount_roots: - /host_mnt/c/Users//code/projects/langbot/LangBot/docker/data/box ``` ### Many stdio MCP Servers Fail or Stay Connecting #### Symptoms - MCP status stays at `connecting` or becomes `error`. - `docker logs langbot_box` contains `Cannot fork`. - After installing many stdio MCP servers, previously working MCP servers also fail to start. #### Cause stdio MCP servers run inside the Box sandbox. The default Box profile has a relatively small PID limit. Starting many `npx` or `uvx` based MCP servers at the same time can hit that process limit. #### Fix Use the larger built-in Box profile in `docker/data/config.yaml`: ```yaml box: local: profile: network_extended ``` Then stop LangBot and Box, remove the old shared sandbox, and recreate the containers. Linux/macOS: ```bash docker compose --profile all stop langbot langbot_box docker rm -f $(docker ps -aq --filter "name=langbot-box-mcp-shared") docker compose --profile all up -d --force-recreate ``` Windows PowerShell: ```powershell docker compose --profile all stop langbot langbot_box docker ps -a --filter "name=langbot-box-mcp-shared" --format "{{.Names}}" | ForEach-Object { docker rm -f $_ } docker compose --profile all up -d --force-recreate ``` After the MCP servers finish cold starting, check the MCP management page. Target servers should show `connected` and a non-zero tool count. ### MCP Is Installed but Has No Tools or Cannot Connect #### Symptoms - The MCP server is listed, but its status is `error` or stays at `connecting`. - Tool count is `0`. - Remote MCP logs show `401 Unauthorized`, connection timeout, or handshake failure. #### Common Causes - The remote MCP requires an API key or OAuth authorization that is not configured. - The MCP package is cold starting through `npx` or `uvx`, and dependency download takes time. - The current Docker network cannot reach the MCP service or package registry. - The stdio MCP sandbox does not have enough resources. #### Fix Prefer MCP servers from LangBot Space that do not require credentials, or make sure credentials are configured correctly. For credentialed MCP servers, fill in the required environment variables, headers, or URL parameters during installation. Check runtime logs: ```bash docker logs langbot --tail 200 docker logs langbot_box --tail 200 ``` If a server cannot connect in the current environment, disable or delete it from the MCP management page so it does not confuse later checks. ### Image Tag or Registry Is Inconsistent #### Symptoms - `docker compose ps` still shows an old image. - Image registry or tag changes do not take effect after restart. - `langbot`, `langbot_plugin_runtime`, and `langbot_box` use different image tags. #### Fix Keep the three LangBot service image tags consistent, then pull and recreate: ```bash docker pull rockchin/langbot:latest docker compose --profile all up -d --force-recreate ``` If you intentionally deploy a non-default tag, update all three image entries in `docker-compose.yaml`: `langbot`, `langbot_plugin_runtime`, and `langbot_box`. ### Post-Fix Verification After applying a fix, run a full check: ```bash docker compose --profile all ps docker inspect langbot langbot_plugin_runtime langbot_box --format '{{.Name}} {{.Config.Image}} {{.State.Status}}' ``` Check the WebUI: ```bash curl -I http://127.0.0.1:5300/ ``` Then confirm in the UI: - Login works. - Box / sandbox features are available. - Target MCP servers show `connected`. - stdio MCP servers show the expected tool count. --- # Certified plugins and shared runtime Source: https://langbot.app/docs/en/plugin/certified-plugins What certification is, why it exists, when you need it, and the shared-runtime-v1 / stateless-v1 contract. ## What certification is Certification is a grant LangBot makes for **one exact, immutable plugin artifact**: that artifact is approved to run **shared across tenants** in LangBot Cloud. - Certification is bound to the artifact itself (a specific published version, identified by digest), not to a plugin name or an author. Publishing a new version does not carry the previous version's certification over. - Certification is not a quality score and not a security audit endorsement. ## Why certification exists LangBot does not place plugins in shared mode by default. The reason is that sharing is keyed by artifact: - **Dedicated mode**: the plugin does not participate in sharing and runs on its own. - **Shared mode**: every installation of the same artifact digest shares one Worker. Sharing keeps the number of processes and the startup cost from growing linearly with the number of installations. The trade-off is that **one process handles calls from several Workspaces at once** — so a plugin that keeps tenant data on its instances will leak it between tenants. The platform therefore has to review this exact artifact, confirm it satisfies the stateless contract, and then pin that trust to the artifact with a signature before it may enter shared placement. That is what certification is for. ## When you need certification **Most plugins do not need certification.** Skipping it does not stop you from publishing to the marketplace, and it does not stop users from installing your plugin — it simply runs in dedicated mode. | Your situation | Certification needed? | | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | --------------------------------------- | | You only want to publish the plugin so users can install it | No | | The plugin needs process-local state across calls (for example a long-lived external session process) | No — and it should stay dedicated | | The plugin has background tasks, timers, or long-lived tenant caches | No — dedicated mode is the safer choice | | You want the Certified Plugin badge | Yes | | You want several installations of one artifact to share a process, reducing cost and startup overhead | Yes | | The plugin targets Cloud multi-tenant scenarios and you want shared placement | Yes | The test is a single question: **certification only makes sense if your code genuinely keeps no tenant or installation data on its instances.** ## What certification changes After review passes: - The artifact is signed and installed in **shared mode**; multiple installations of the same digest share one Worker. - That Worker holds one `BasePlugin` object and one instance per declared component manifest (EventListener, Tool, Command, KnowledgeEngine, Parser, Page, Runner). - Each installation adds only a lightweight layer of configuration, authority and lifecycle context; the active one is selected per call. - You receive the Certified Plugin badge. - Self-hosted OSS ships without a certification issuer public key, so a certified artifact still runs dedicated on self-hosted instances. You also take on a standing obligation: **every later version must keep satisfying the stateless contract.** After changing code you submit a new version for review; certification does not renew itself. ## What you must adapt ### Declaration Declare both fields under `execution` in `manifest.yaml`: ```yaml apiVersion: v1 kind: Plugin metadata: author: your-name name: YourPlugin version: 0.1.1 spec: config: [] components: {} execution: python: path: main.py attr: YourPlugin sharedRuntime: shared-runtime-v1 componentModel: stateless-v1 ``` | Field | Accepted value | Notes | | -------------------------- | ------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------ | | `execution.sharedRuntime` | `shared-runtime-v1` | This is the only accepted value; anything else fails manifest validation | | `execution.componentModel` | `stateless-v1` | This is the only accepted value | - Both fields **must be declared together**. A package that declares `sharedRuntime` without `componentModel` is rejected during certification validation. - The fields are recognised from **SDK 0.7.0** onwards. Earlier SDKs ignore them, so do not rely on an old SDK to tell you whether the declaration took effect. > warning: > > A declaration is an application, not approval. It grants no badge and does not change how the plugin runs by itself. ### Stateless constraints - `BasePlugin.initialize()` and component `initialize()` are **process-scoped** and run once per Worker. At that point there is no "current installation" and no "current Workspace". - Component instances are called concurrently by different Workspaces, so every method must be re-entrant. - Read the active installation configuration per call: `self.get_config()` on `BasePlugin`, `self.get_plugin_config()` or `self.plugin.get_config()` in a component, and `ctx.config` in a Runner. - Never store configuration, credentials, Workspace or installation identity, or request data in instance fields or module-level globals. - Do not read and cache installation configuration in `initialize()`. - Reach storage, files, credentials, logs, models and other platform capabilities through the SDK Host APIs. Authority is resolved per call; do not cache it yourself. - Durable tenant state belongs in Host services. Runners use `ctx.state_get()` / `ctx.state_set()` and friends (this requires `ctx.context.available_apis.state` to be `true`). In-process caches may hold artifact-level public data only; if you must cache tenant data, the key has to include the complete installation identity and must be cleaned up when the installation is removed. - Do not start tenant-bearing background tasks or threads: the SDK does **not** track ownership of work you create. If you must detach work, keep a registry keyed by the installation binding and stop it in `on_installation_revoked()`. Once a handler returns, that invocation's context and run-associated calls are no longer valid. ### One installation, many usages A Workspace installs each plugin once, but that single installation is reused by **several product objects**: | Component kind | What reuses it | What isolates it | | ------------------------------------------------ | -------------------------------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | Runner in an Agent or Pipeline | every processor | `ctx.state.*` is already per-processor (scopes carry `binding_identity`, derived from the Agent UUID) | | KnowledgeEngine / Parser behind a knowledge base | every knowledge base | **your plugin must isolate by knowledge-base ID itself** | | Tool / Command / EventListener / Page | several processors, conversations or page requests | read per call; never accumulate on the instance | The platform storage key is `(instance, Workspace, owner type, plugin, key)` and carries **no processor or knowledge-base dimension**. So whenever your plugin persists or caches anything, it must put the product object's identity into the key: - **Config**: read per call (`ctx.config`, or the task-local `self.get_plugin_config()`); never cache it on the instance. - **Persistence**: keys must include the product identity (processor identity / knowledge-base ID / conversation identity). - **Process-local caches**: keys must include both the full installation binding **and** the product identity, and must be released when the installation is revoked (below). - **Locks and fences**: key them by `(installation, product object)`. **A failure in one processor or knowledge base must not block the others of the same installation.** - **Failure grading**: only a dispatched mutation with an unknown outcome should enter a state that needs manual reconciliation; deterministic validation errors and pre-dispatch cancellation must not affect later calls. - **Logs and telemetry**: a diagnostic failure must not affect the work, and tenant data must not be written into a process-wide singleton. ### When an installation is revoked Under shared placement one object graph serves every installation of the artifact, so **revoking one installation does not destroy it**. The plugin must release binding-keyed process-local state itself: ```python class MyPlugin(BasePlugin): def __init__(self) -> None: super().__init__() self._caches: dict[str, Cache] = {} async def on_installation_revoked(self, binding) -> None: self._caches.pop(binding.installation_uuid, None) ``` - **Fires for** uninstall, disable, Workspace removal and upgrade (the superseded binding is revoked). It runs only under shared placement; dedicated workers are shut down, so their process-local state disappears with the process. - **There is no active invocation**, so Host APIs (storage, config, binding lookups) are unavailable — you can only release process-local state, and the installation is identified by the argument. - Exceptions are logged and **never block revocation**. - It requires an SDK version that provides `BasePlugin.on_installation_revoked`; on older versions the hook is simply never called. ### Allowed / forbidden | Concern | Allowed | Forbidden | | ------------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | Reading config | Read per call (`self.get_plugin_config()`, `ctx.config`) | Reading in `initialize()` and keeping it on `self` | | Connection pools / HTTP clients | Shared pools without tenant credentials | Baking an installation's endpoint or API key into the instance | | Caching | Artifact-level public data; or keys including the full installation identity and supporting cleanup | A module-level `dict` keyed by Workspace or user that persists | | Cross-invocation state | Host services (`ctx.state_*` in a Runner) | Instance fields, module globals | | Background work | None | Holding an invocation's context or its run-associated calls after the handler returned | | Logging | `ctx.log()` or SDK logging APIs | A module-level background thread printing tenant config or credentials | ### Common anti-patterns **1. Reading installation config during initialization** ```python async def initialize(self): self.endpoint = self.plugin.config["endpoint"] # process-scoped init has no active installation self.api_key = self.plugin.config["api_key"] ``` Shared initialization has no installation configuration, so this reads empty or stale values. **2. Caching tenant data in a module global** ```python _CACHE = {} # keyed by Workspace or user; persists across installations and tenants async def call(self, params, **kwargs): if params["user"] not in _CACHE: _CACHE[params["user"]] = await fetch(params["user"]) ``` **3. Keeping work alive after the handler returns** ```python async def call(self, params, **kwargs): config = self.get_plugin_config() asyncio.create_task(self._upload_later(config)) # handler already returned; context and authority are gone return ok() ``` **4. Treating instance fields as a config container** ```python async def initialize(self): self.default_endpoint = "https://api.example.com" # a public constant is fine self.last_config = {} # writing installation config here is not ``` The correct shape: ```python class LookupTool(Tool): async def initialize(self): # artifact-level objects only, no tenant information self.transport = StatelessHTTPTransport() async def call(self, params, **kwargs): config = self.get_plugin_config() # read for the active installation on every call return await self.transport.lookup(config["endpoint"], params) ``` ### Runners in particular Runners have the most tension with the stateless contract, because a runner naturally tends to keep sessions and context in the process. - A `RunnerContext` is **valid only for the current run**. Do not keep it, or anything derived from it, on the instance for reuse across calls. - Session state a Runner needs across calls belongs in `ctx.state_get()` / `ctx.state_set()` (scopes: `conversation`, `actor`, `subject`, `runner`) or another Host-provided store — not in instance fields. - After a handler returns, do not keep using `ctx` in background tasks, and do not keep using run-associated calls made through `self.plugin`. - If your Runner fundamentally depends on process-local state across calls (for example a long-lived external session process), **do not declare `stateless-v1`** and stay on a dedicated Worker. See [Runner context](https://langbot.app/docs/en/plugin/dev/apis/agent-run.md) for the full context API. ## Self-check and submission Verify each item before submitting: - [ ] Both fields are declared in `manifest.yaml` with the exact accepted values. - [ ] A repository-wide search confirms there are no module-level mutable globals. - [ ] `initialize()` performs process-scoped setup only and reads no installation config. - [ ] Every piece of installation config is read at call time. - [ ] No task or thread keeps running after a handler returns. - [ ] Cross-call state goes through Host APIs (`ctx.state_*` in a Runner). ### How to submit Certification uses the same path as publishing, with no extra process: declare the two fields above in `manifest.yaml`, then submit a **new version** with `lbp publish` as usual (a published version cannot have the declaration added later). LangBot Space checks the exact submitted package, runs an advisory code review, and issues the Certified Plugin badge after human approval; certification is bound to the reviewed version and checksum. If the review finds that the release cannot meet the requirements, publish it as an unsigned normal plugin first and fix the findings in a later immutable version. If this check shows your plugin is not a good fit for sharing, just publish it as a normal plugin — certification is optional. See [Publish to the marketplace](https://langbot.app/docs/en/plugin/dev/publish/market.md) for the publishing flow. --- # System Compatibility Source: https://langbot.app/docs/en/plugin/compatibility LangBot's plugin system utilizes mechanisms such as `Asyncio` and `Subprocess`, which work well on Unix-like systems (such as Linux, macOS), but have some issues on Windows, preventing plugins from running properly. Python's asynchronous event loop on Windows defaults to using `ProactorEventLoop`, but this event loop lacks support for Stdio, while LangBot in non-Docker environments relies on Stdio to communicate with Plugin Runtime, and Plugin Runtime also depends on Stdio to communicate with plugins. If we switch to using `SelectorEventLoop`, it would prevent Plugin Runtime and plugins from starting properly, as `SelectorEventLoop` does not support `Subprocess`. For detailed information about these issues, please refer to: [Python Official Documentation](https://docs.python.org/3.13/library/asyncio-platforms.html) ## Solution Unlike the tight coupling between subprocess management and Stdio communication on Unix-like systems, LangBot and the Plugin Runtime automatically switch to a hybrid subprocess + WebSocket communication strategy on Windows. LangBot still launches the Plugin Runtime via a subprocess, but communicates with it over WebSocket; similarly, the Plugin Runtime starts each installed plugin via subprocesses while communicating with them through WebSocket. This behavior is automatically selected based on the OS, so no manual configuration is required. --- # Context APIs Source: https://langbot.app/docs/en/plugin/dev/apis/agent-run A context contains data for one component invocation. Each component receives a different context, so start with the entry point for your component. | Component | Handler entry point | Context type | | ------------------ | -------------------------------------- | -------------------------------------- | | EventListener | `handler(event_context)` | `EventContext` | | Command | `subcommand(context)` | `ExecuteContext` | | Tool | `call(params, session, query_id)` | No separate context object | | Runner | `run(ctx)` or `handler(ctx)` | `RunnerContext` | | KnowledgeEngine | `ingest(context)`, `retrieve(context)` | `IngestionContext`, `RetrievalContext` | | KnowledgeRetriever | `retrieve(context)` | `RetrievalContext` | | Parser | `parse(context)` | `ParseContext` | | Page | `handle_api(request)` | `PageRequest` | This page covers the data and methods available through these contexts. Use `self.plugin` for models, knowledge bases, storage, and other LangBot capabilities; see [LangBot API](https://langbot.app/docs/en/plugin/dev/apis/common.md). For platform operations, see [Platform API](https://langbot.app/docs/en/plugin/dev/apis/platform.md). `EventContext`, `ExecuteContext`, and `Session` also carry `instance_uuid`, `workspace_uuid`, and `placement_generation`. These fields identify the current instance and workspace for execution; plugins must not treat them as authorization data. See [LLM request configuration](https://langbot.app/docs/en/plugin/dev/apis/llm-requests.md) for retries, timeouts, numeric reasoning budgets, prompt caching, headers and stream cancellation. ## EventListener EventListener handles Pipeline events. Its event handler receives an `EventContext`: ```python event = event_context.event sender_id = event.sender_id ``` ### Context data | Property | Type | Description | | ---------------------- | ---------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | `event` | `BaseEventModel` | Current event object; its actual type matches the registered event type | | `event_name` | `str` | Current event class name | | `query_id` | `int` | Current Pipeline request ID | | `query_uuid` | `str \| None` | Stable identifier for the current Pipeline request | | `eid` | `int` | Temporary event number inside Plugin Runtime; do not persist it | | `is_prevent_default` | `bool` | Whether default handling has been stopped; change it with `prevent_default()` | | `is_prevent_postorder` | `bool` | Whether later plugins have been stopped; change it with `prevent_postorder()` | See [Pipeline Events](https://langbot.app/docs/en/plugin/dev/apis/pipeline-events.md) for event fields and all supported event types. ### Context methods | Method | Return value | Description | | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ---------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | `await event_context.reply(message_chain, quote_origin=False)` | - | Reply in the conversation for the current request | | `await event_context.get_bot_uuid()` | `str` | Get the source bot UUID | | `await event_context.set_query_var(key, value)` | - | Set a variable on the current request | | `await event_context.get_query_var(key)` | `Any` | Get one request variable | | `await event_context.get_query_vars()` | `dict[str, Any]` | Get all request variables | | `await event_context.create_new_conversation()` | `dict[str, Any]` | Clear the current Pipeline conversation so a later request starts a new one | | `await event_context.list_pipeline_knowledge_bases()` | `list[dict[str, Any]]` | List knowledge bases bound to the current Pipeline Local Agent | | `await event_context.retrieve_knowledge(kb_id, query_text, top_k=5, filters=None)` | `list[dict[str, Any]]` | Search a knowledge base bound to the current Pipeline | | `event_context.prevent_default()` | - | Stop the default handling of the current event | | `event_context.prevent_postorder()` | - | Stop later plugins from handling the current event | `reply()` accepts a [MessageChain](https://langbot.app/docs/en/plugin/dev/apis/messages.md). Request variables, replies, and Pipeline knowledge-base methods require an associated Pipeline request. The `kb_id` passed to `retrieve_knowledge()` must come from `list_pipeline_knowledge_bases()`. `prevent_default()` only affects Pipeline events whose default flow can be stopped. See [Pipeline Events](https://langbot.app/docs/en/plugin/dev/apis/pipeline-events.md#prevent-default-behavior). ## Command A Command subcommand handler receives an `ExecuteContext`: ```python query = " ".join(context.crt_params) session = context.session ``` ### Context data | Property | Type | Description | | ------------------- | ------------- | ---------------------------------------------------- | | `session` | `Session` | Session that contains the current message | | `command_text` | `str` | Complete command text without the command prefix | | `full_command_text` | `str` | Complete command text including the prefix | | `command` | `str` | Root command name | | `crt_command` | `str` | Subcommand currently being executed | | `params` | `list[str]` | All arguments after the root command | | `crt_params` | `list[str]` | Arguments not yet consumed by the current subcommand | | `privilege` | `int` | Command privilege level of the current user | | `query_id` | `int` | Current Pipeline request ID | | `query_uuid` | `str \| None` | Stable identifier for the current Pipeline request | The SDK calls `context.shift()` before entering the current subcommand. Components do not need to call it directly. ### Context methods | Method | Return value | Description | | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ---------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | `await context.reply(message_chain, quote_origin=False)` | - | Reply in the conversation for the current request | | `await context.get_bot_uuid()` | `str` | Get the source bot UUID | | `await context.set_query_var(key, value)` | - | Set a variable on the current request | | `await context.get_query_var(key)` | `Any` | Get one request variable | | `await context.get_query_vars()` | `dict[str, Any]` | Get all request variables | | `await context.create_new_conversation()` | `dict[str, Any]` | Clear the current Pipeline conversation so a later request starts a new one | | `await context.list_pipeline_knowledge_bases()` | `list[dict[str, Any]]` | List knowledge bases bound to the current Pipeline Local Agent | | `await context.retrieve_knowledge(kb_id, query_text, top_k=5, filters=None)` | `list[dict[str, Any]]` | Search a knowledge base bound to the current Pipeline | These request methods behave the same as their EventListener equivalents. See [Command](https://langbot.app/docs/en/plugin/dev/components/command.md) for registration and return values. ## Tool Tool has no separate context object. Its `call()` parameters carry the invocation data: ```python conversation_type = session.launcher_type.value conversation_id = session.launcher_id sender_id = session.sender_id ``` | Parameter | Description | | ---------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | `params` | Arguments generated by the model or caller from the tool JSON Schema | | `session` | Current session data | | `query_id` | Current Pipeline request ID; pass it unchanged to LangBot APIs that require request context | Common `Session` properties are: | Property | Description | | ---------------------------- | --------------------------------------------- | | `launcher_type` | Conversation type: `person` or `group` | | `launcher_id` | Private-chat user or group ID | | `sender_id` | Current message sender ID | | `bot_uuid` | Current bot UUID | | `using_conversation` | Current Pipeline conversation | | `conversations` | Pipeline conversations stored in this Session | | `use_prompt_name` | Active prompt name | | `create_time`, `update_time` | Session creation and update times | `session` is a data object and has no context methods such as `reply()`. A tool return value goes back to its caller; it is not sent to the chat platform automatically. Use `self.plugin` for LangBot and platform capabilities. If an API requires `session` and `query_id`, pass the values received by the current call. ## Runner Both custom `run(ctx)` implementations and Runner event handlers receive a `RunnerContext`. It remains valid only while the current invocation is running. ```python text = ctx.input.to_text() event_type = ctx.event.event_type ``` ### Context data | Property | Type | Description | | ---------------- | ----------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | `run_id` | `str` | Current run ID | | `trigger` | `AgentTrigger` | Trigger type, source, and time | | `event` | `AgentEventContext` | Standard event envelope with the event ID, type, source, time, and raw data | | `platform_event` | Platform event type | Platform event parsed into its specific event type | | `conversation` | `ConversationContext \| None` | Current conversation, thread, bot, and workspace identifiers | | `actor` | `ActorContext \| None` | Actor that caused the event | | `subject` | `SubjectContext \| None` | Message, group, or other object affected by the event | | `input` | `AgentInput` | Current text, structured content, and attachments | | `delivery` | `DeliveryContext` | Output target and streaming, editing, and reaction capabilities | | `resources` | `AgentResources` | Models, tools, knowledge bases, skills, and storage authorized for this run | | `context` | `ContextAccess` | Conversation cursors, inline policy, and available context APIs | | `state` | `AgentRunState` | Scope-specific state snapshot loaded at the start of the run | | `runtime` | `AgentRuntimeContext` | LangBot version, trace ID, and deadline | | `config` | `dict[str, Any]` | Current Agent or plugin-processor configuration | | `adapter` | `AdapterContext \| None` | Additional entry-adapter data | | `variables` | `dict[str, Any]` | Public request variables for Runner templates | | `metadata` | `dict[str, Any]` | Other metadata supplied by the Host | Prefer the stable properties in this table. `event.data` and `adapter.extra` carry additional data that has not been promoted to stable fields. ### Replies and logs | Method | Return value | Description | | ---------------------------------------------------- | --------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | `await ctx.get_bot_uuid()` | `str` | Get the source bot UUID; raises an error when no bot is associated | | `await ctx.reply(message_chain, quote_origin=False)` | `Any` | Reply to the current event with a string or `MessageChain` | | `ctx.reply_stream()` | Async context manager | Stream full-text updates to one reply | | `await ctx.log(text, level="info")` | - | Write to this run's log; levels are `debug`, `info`, `warning`, and `error` | Each `reply_stream().update(text)` call supplies the complete current text. If the platform does not support streaming, LangBot sends one complete message when the stream finishes. Debug mode only simulates delivery. ### Available tools | Method | Return value | Description | | ------------------------------------------------- | ---------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | `await ctx.get_available_tools()` | `list[dict[str, Any]]` | Get context actions, platform APIs, plugin tools, and MCP tools callable in this invocation | | `await ctx.call_tool(tool_name, parameters=None)` | `dict[str, Any]` | Call a tool from that list | Each item returned by `get_available_tools()` contains `name`, `description`, `parameters`, `type`, and `operations`. The result is already filtered by the current Agent or plugin-processor configuration and the event's capabilities. `ctx.call_tool()` cannot call a tool absent from this list. ### Box and attachments The Runner owns enablement, acquisition, and reuse policy. Use the [LangBot Box APIs](https://langbot.app/docs/en/plugin/dev/apis/common.md#box-sandbox) for resources and these context methods for the current run. | Method | Returns | Behavior | | ------------------------------------------------------- | --------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | `await ctx.bind_box(box_id)` | `BoxBinding` | Bind a Workspace Box; returns `box_id`, `outbox`. A run cannot switch Boxes | | `await ctx.import_box_attachments(attachment_ids=None)` | `list[BoxFile]` | Import selected input `ref` values, or all inputs; returns sandbox paths | | `await ctx.export_box_files()` | `list[BoxFile]` | Export this run's outbox as file handles; sends no message | | `await ctx.reply_files(file_ids)` | `Any` | Reply with exported IDs, subject to event reply authorization | `BoxFile` contains `id`, `name`, `type`, `size`, and optional `path`. Original attachment URLs and content remain available. Files are staged only on explicit import. Output handles belong to this run and cannot be sent twice. Bind before native sandbox tools or file operations. Runs sharing a Box still have separate attachment directories. `ctx.variables` contains public request variables for computing reuse keys. `ctx.delivery.automatic_reply` is `True` for Pipeline execution: return files using `RunnerResult.message_completed(ctx.run_id, message, file_ids=[...])`. Agents and plugin processors explicitly call `ctx.reply_files()`. External runners use the same flow through `AgentRunExternalTools`: `langbot_get_box_status`, `langbot_list_boxes`, `langbot_acquire_box`, `langbot_bind_box`, `langbot_import_box_attachments`, and `langbot_export_box_files`. `langbot_reply_files` is available when the run has event reply permission. All calls retain the current run authorization. ### Prompt, history, and events | Method | Return value | Availability field | | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ | ---------------------- | ------------------ | | `await ctx.get_prompt()` | `list[dict[str, Any]]` | `prompt_get` | | `await ctx.history_page(conversation_id=None, before_cursor=None, after_cursor=None, limit=50, direction="backward", include_attachments=False)` | `HistoryPage` | `history_page` | | `await ctx.history_search(query, filters=None, top_k=10)` | `HistorySearchResult` | `history_search` | | `await ctx.event_get(event_id)` | `AgentEventRecord` | `event_get` | | `await ctx.event_page(conversation_id=None, event_types=None, before_cursor=None, limit=50)` | `EventPage` | `event_page` | | `await ctx.steering_pull(mode="all", limit=None)` | `SteeringPullResult` | `steering_pull` | ### State | Method | Return value | Description | | ----------------------------------------------------- | ---------------- | ------------------------------------- | | `await ctx.state_get(scope, key)` | `dict[str, Any]` | Read a state value | | `await ctx.state_set(scope, key, value)` | `dict[str, Any]` | Store a JSON-serializable state value | | `await ctx.state_delete(scope, key)` | `dict[str, Any]` | Delete a state value | | `await ctx.state_list(scope, prefix=None, limit=100)` | `dict[str, Any]` | List state keys in a scope | `scope` can be `conversation`, `actor`, `subject`, or `runner`. These methods require `ctx.context.available_apis.state` to be `true`. ### Run records | Method | Return value | Availability field | | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | --------------- | ------------------- | | `await ctx.run_get(run_id=None)` | `AgentRun` | `run_get` | | `await ctx.run_list(conversation_id=None, statuses=None, before_cursor=None, limit=50)` | `RunPage` | `run_list` | | `await ctx.run_events_page(run_id=None, before_cursor=None, after_cursor=None, limit=50, direction="forward")` | `RunEventPage` | `run_events_page` | | `await ctx.run_cancel(run_id=None, reason=None)` | `AgentRun` | `run_cancel` | | `await ctx.run_append_result(result)` | `AgentRunEvent` | `run_append_result` | | `await ctx.run_finalize(run_id=None, status=None, reason=None)` | `AgentRun` | `run_finalize` | `run_id=None` refers to the current run. The SDK completes a normal event handler automatically. When a custom `run(ctx)` yields `RunnerResult`, do not register the same result again with `run_append_result()`. ### Availability and authorization Use `ctx.context.available_apis` to check whether prompt, history, event, state, and run-record methods are available. Authorized models, tools, and knowledge bases are in `ctx.resources.models`, `ctx.resources.tools`, and `ctx.resources.knowledge_bases`. During Runner execution, model, tool, knowledge-base, storage, and platform calls through `self.plugin` are automatically associated with the current run and validated against `ctx.resources`. Do not pass `run_id`. After the handler returns, do not use this context or its run-bound calls from background tasks. `ctx.api` is the lower-level run-scoped proxy. Normal component code should prefer the `ctx` methods listed on this page and use `self.plugin` for LangBot APIs. ## Data-only contexts The following components receive task input rather than an EventListener or Runner execution context. Their fields, return values, and complete examples live in the corresponding component guides. | Component entry point | Main data | Component guide | | -------------------------------------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | `KnowledgeEngine.ingest(context: IngestionContext)` | File, target knowledge base, creation settings, and parse result | [KnowledgeEngine](https://langbot.app/docs/en/plugin/dev/components/knowledge-engine.md#document-ingestion) | | `KnowledgeEngine.retrieve(context: RetrievalContext)` | Query, target knowledge base, retrieval settings, and filters | [KnowledgeEngine](https://langbot.app/docs/en/plugin/dev/components/knowledge-engine.md#knowledge-retrieval) | | `KnowledgeRetriever.retrieve(context: RetrievalContext)` | Query and external knowledge-base settings | [KnowledgeRetriever](https://langbot.app/docs/en/plugin/dev/components/knowledge-retriever.md#retrieval-context) | | `Parser.parse(context: ParseContext)` | File content, filename, MIME type, and metadata | [Parser](https://langbot.app/docs/en/plugin/dev/components/parser.md#parse-method) | | `Page.handle_api(request: PageRequest)` | Endpoint, HTTP method, body, and headers | [Page](https://langbot.app/docs/en/plugin/dev/components/page.md#pagerequest-fields) | --- # LangBot API Source: https://langbot.app/docs/en/plugin/dev/apis/common Use `self.plugin` for models, tools, knowledge bases, and storage. For the current event, replies, and conversation state, see [Context APIs](https://langbot.app/docs/en/plugin/dev/apis/agent-run.md). See [LLM request configuration](https://langbot.app/docs/en/plugin/dev/apis/llm-requests.md) for retries, timeouts, numeric reasoning budgets, prompt caching, headers and stream cancellation. > info: > > Most methods on this page need a capability that your plugin declares in `manifest.yaml` and a Workspace member grants after installation, for example `models.invoke` for `invoke_llm` or `bot.message.send` for `send_message`. Calls without the grant fail with `permission_denied`. See [Plugin permissions](https://langbot.app/docs/en/plugin/dev/permissions.md#capabilities) for which capability each method needs. To manage Agents, Pipelines, bots and other Workspace resources, use the [Workspace API](https://langbot.app/docs/en/plugin/dev/apis/workspace.md). ## LangBot API These APIs can be called in any plugin component. Access methods: - In the plugin root directory `main.py`: Internal methods of the `self` object, these APIs are all provided by the plugin class parent class `BasePlugin`. - In regular plugin component classes: Internal methods of the `self.plugin` object. ### Get Plugin Configuration Plugin configuration format can be written in `manifest.yaml`, and users need to fill it out according to the plugin configuration format in LangBot's plugin management. Plugin code can then call this API to get plugin configuration information. ```python def get_config(self) -> dict[str, typing.Any]: """Get the config of the plugin.""" # Usage example config = self.plugin.get_config() ``` ### Get LangBot Version Get the LangBot version number, returned as a string in format `v..`. ```python async def get_langbot_version(self) -> str: """Get the langbot version""" # Usage example langbot_version = await self.plugin.get_langbot_version() ``` ### Get Configured Bot List Returns a list of all bot UUIDs. ```python async def get_bots(self) -> list[str]: """Get all bots""" # Usage example bots = await self.plugin.get_bots() ``` ### Get Bot Information Get bot information. ```python async def get_bot_info(self, bot_uuid: str) -> dict[str, Any]: """Get a bot info""" # Usage example bot_info = await self.plugin.get_bot_info("de639861-be05-4018-859b-c2e2d3e0d603") # Return example { "uuid": "de639861-be05-4018-859b-c2e2d3e0d603", "name": "aiocqhttp", "description": "Migrated from LangBot v3", "adapter": "aiocqhttp", "enable": true, "use_pipeline_name": "ChatPipeline", "use_pipeline_uuid": "c30a1dca-e91c-452b-83ec-84d635a30028", "created_at": "2025-05-10T13:53:08", "updated_at": "2025-08-12T11:27:30", "adapter_runtime_values": { # Present if the bot is currently running "bot_account_id": 960164003 # Bot account ID } } ``` ### Send Proactive Message Send proactive messages through bot UUID and target session ID. For message chain construction methods, please refer to [Message Platform Entities](https://langbot.app/docs/en/plugin/dev/apis/messages.md). ```python async def send_message( self, bot_uuid: str, target_type: str, target_id: str, message_chain: platform_message.MessageChain, ) -> None: """Send a message to a session""" # Usage example await self.plugin.send_message( bot_uuid="de639861-be05-4018-859b-c2e2d3e0d603", target_type="person", target_id="1010553892", message_chain=platform_message.MessageChain([platform_message.Plain(text="Hello, world!")]), ) ``` ### Get Configured LLM Model List Returns a list of UUIDs for all configured LLM models. ```python async def get_llm_models(self) -> list[str]: """Get all LLM models""" # Usage example llm_models = await self.plugin.get_llm_models() ``` ### Invoke LLM Model Invoke an LLM model, returns an LLM message. Non-streaming. ```python async def invoke_llm( self, llm_model_uuid: str, messages: list[provider_message.Message], funcs: list[resource_tool.LLMTool] = [], extra_args: dict[str, Any] = {}, timeout: float | None = None, *, reasoning_level: ReasoningLevel | None = None, ) -> provider_message.Message: """Invoke an LLM model""" # Usage example llm_message = await self.plugin.invoke_llm( llm_model_uuid="llm_model_uuid", messages=[provider_message.Message(role="user", content="Hello, world!")], funcs=[], extra_args={}, ) ``` ### Reasoning level All model invocation methods above accept the optional keyword-only `reasoning_level` parameter: ```python response = await self.plugin.invoke_llm( llm_model_uuid=model_uuid, messages=[provider_message.Message(role="user", content="Analyze this problem")], reasoning_level="medium", ) ``` Values are `provider_default`, `disabled`, `enabled`, `minimal`, `low`, `medium`, `high`, `xhigh`, and `max`. Available levels depend on the model. LangBot validates support and translates the level into provider parameters; unsupported levels raise an error. - Omitted or `None`: preserves existing model configuration and `extra_args` behavior. - `provider_default`: adds no explicit reasoning level. - Other levels: apply to this call only. Do not also supply provider-specific reasoning parameters through `extra_args`. Runners read their own configuration and explicitly pass the appropriate level for each call, including fallback models and tool follow-ups. LangBot does not extract reasoning levels from Runner configuration. Existing plugins require no changes; when an explicit option is used with an unsupported Host, the SDK requests an upgrade before invoking the model. ### Model streaming and usage | Method | Returns | | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ---------------------------------- | | `invoke_llm_with_usage(llm_model_uuid, messages, funcs=[], extra_args={}, timeout=None, *, reasoning_level=None)` | `LLMInvokeResult` | | `invoke_llm_stream(llm_model_uuid, messages, funcs=[], extra_args={}, *, reasoning_level=None)` | Async iterator of `MessageChunk` | | `invoke_llm_stream_events(llm_model_uuid, messages, funcs=[], extra_args={}, *, reasoning_level=None)` | Async iterator of `LLMStreamEvent` | Parameters match `invoke_llm`. `timeout` is in seconds; non-streaming calls default to 120 seconds. Use `invoke_llm_with_usage` when token usage is needed: ```python from langbot_plugin.api.entities.builtin.provider.message import Message result = await self.plugin.invoke_llm_with_usage( llm_model_uuid=model_uuid, messages=[Message(role="user", content="Hello!")], ) print(result.message.content) if result.usage is not None: print(result.usage.total_tokens) ``` `usage` may be `None`; `prompt_tokens`, `completion_tokens`, and `total_tokens` may also be absent. Missing values do not mean zero usage. Additional provider fields, such as cache usage, are preserved. ```python async for event in self.plugin.invoke_llm_stream_events( llm_model_uuid=model_uuid, messages=[Message(role="user", content="Hello!")], ): if event.chunk is not None: print(event.chunk.content) if event.usage is not None: print(event.usage.model_dump()) ``` `LLMStreamEvent` has optional `chunk` and `usage`; the final event may contain usage without text. `invoke_llm_stream` yields only message/tool-call chunks. `MessageChunk.content` is the current chunk; `all_content`, when supplied, is accumulated text. Replace with accumulated text and append only deltas; an `is_final` chunk may still carry text. Model streaming does not send platform messages; see [Run Context APIs](https://langbot.app/docs/en/plugin/dev/apis/agent-run.md) for explicit streaming replies. ### List Available Parsers List Parser plugins currently available on the host, optionally filtered by MIME type. ```python async def list_parsers(self, mime_type: str | None = None) -> list[dict[str, Any]]: """List available Parser plugins""" # Usage example parsers = await self.plugin.list_parsers(mime_type="application/pdf") # Each item includes plugin_id, plugin_author, plugin_name, name, description, supported_mime_types ``` ### List All Available Tools List all available tools in the current LangBot instance (including plugin tools and MCP tools). ```python async def list_tools(self) -> list[dict[str, Any]]: """List all available tools Returns: A list of tool dicts, each containing: - name: Tool name - label: Display label (i18n) - description: Tool description (i18n) - icon: Tool icon - spec: Tool specification (includes llm_prompt and parameters) """ # Example tools = await self.plugin.list_tools() for tool in tools: print(f"Tool: {tool['name']}") ``` ### Get Tool Detail Get detailed information about a specific tool. ```python async def get_tool_detail(self, tool_name: str) -> dict[str, Any]: """Get detailed information about a specific tool Args: tool_name: Tool name (metadata.name, e.g. "get_weather_alerts") Returns: Tool detail dict containing name, label, description, spec (with parameters and llm_prompt) """ # Example detail = await self.plugin.get_tool_detail("get_weather_alerts") print(detail['spec']['parameters']) ``` ### Call Tool Call a specific tool. ```python async def call_tool( self, tool_name: str, parameters: dict[str, Any], session: dict[str, Any], query_id: int, ) -> dict[str, Any]: """Call a specific tool Args: tool_name: Tool name (metadata.name) parameters: Tool parameters session: Session info query_id: Query ID Returns: Tool response dict """ # Example result = await self.plugin.call_tool( tool_name="get_weather_alerts", parameters={"state": "CA"}, session={}, query_id=0, ) print(result) ``` > idea: > > Tool names use `metadata.name` (e.g. `echo_tool`, `get_weather_alerts`), without author or plugin name prefix. ### Set Plugin Persistent Data Persistently store plugin data. Data stored through this interface can only be accessed by this plugin. Values need to be converted to bytes manually. ```python async def set_plugin_storage(self, key: str, value: bytes) -> None: """Set a plugin storage value""" # Usage example await self.plugin.set_plugin_storage("key", b"value") ``` ### Get Plugin Persistent Data ```python async def get_plugin_storage(self, key: str) -> bytes: """Get a plugin storage value""" # Usage example plugin_storage = await self.plugin.get_plugin_storage("key") ``` ### Get All Plugin Persistent Data Keys ```python async def get_plugin_storage_keys(self) -> list[str]: """Get all plugin storage keys""" # Usage example plugin_storage_keys = await self.plugin.get_plugin_storage_keys() ``` ### Delete Plugin Persistent Data ```python async def delete_plugin_storage(self, key: str) -> None: """Delete a plugin storage value""" # Usage example await self.plugin.delete_plugin_storage("key") ``` ### Get Workspace Persistent Data Data stored through this interface can be accessed by all plugins. Values need to be converted to bytes manually. ```python async def set_workspace_storage(self, key: str, value: bytes) -> None: """Set a workspace storage value""" # Usage example await self.plugin.set_workspace_storage("key", b"value") ``` ### Get Workspace Persistent Data ```python async def get_workspace_storage(self, key: str) -> bytes: """Get a workspace storage value""" # Usage example workspace_storage = await self.plugin.get_workspace_storage("key") ``` ### Get All Workspace Persistent Data Keys ```python async def get_workspace_storage_keys(self) -> list[str]: """Get all workspace storage keys""" # Usage example workspace_storage_keys = await self.plugin.get_workspace_storage_keys() ``` ### Delete Workspace Persistent Data ```python async def delete_workspace_storage(self, key: str) -> None: """Delete a workspace storage value""" # Usage example await self.plugin.delete_workspace_storage("key") ``` ### Get Plugin File-typed Config Field Data ```python async def get_config_file(self, file_key: str) -> bytes: """Get a config file value""" # Usage example file_bytes = await self.plugin.get_config_file("key") ``` Use this in conjunction with configuration fields of type [`file or array[file`](https://langbot.app/docs/en/plugin/dev/basic-info.md#type-file). ## Knowledge Base API These APIs are accessible via `self.plugin` in regular components, allowing you to list and retrieve from all knowledge bases in the LangBot instance without pipeline restrictions. ### List All Knowledge Bases List all available knowledge bases in the LangBot instance. ```python async def list_knowledge_bases(self) -> list[dict[str, Any]]: """List all knowledge bases Returns: List of knowledge base dicts, each containing: - uuid: Knowledge base UUID - name: Knowledge base name - description: Knowledge base description """ # Usage example knowledge_bases = await self.plugin.list_knowledge_bases() for kb in knowledge_bases: print(f"KB: {kb['name']} ({kb['uuid']})") ``` ### Retrieve from Knowledge Base Retrieve relevant documents from any knowledge base. ```python async def retrieve_knowledge( self, kb_id: str, query_text: str, top_k: int = 5, filters: dict[str, Any] | None = None, ) -> list[dict[str, Any]]: """Retrieve from a knowledge base Args: kb_id: Knowledge base UUID (from list_knowledge_bases) query_text: Search query text top_k: Number of results to return (default: 5) filters: Optional metadata filters for retrieval Returns: List of retrieval result entries """ # Usage example results = await self.plugin.retrieve_knowledge( kb_id="kb-uuid-here", query_text="How to configure the system?", top_k=3, ) for entry in results: print(entry) ``` > idea: > > These APIs do not require a `query_id` and can be used in regular components (including Tool components). They can access all knowledge bases without being restricted to the current pipeline's configuration. ## RAG API These APIs are available for `KnowledgeEngine` components to access the LangBot host's embedding models, vector database, and file storage. Access method: - In `KnowledgeEngine` component classes: Internal methods of the `self.plugin` object. ### Invoke Embedding Model Generate text embeddings using the host's configured embedding model. ```python async def invoke_embedding( self, embedding_model_uuid: str, texts: list[str], ) -> list[list[float]]: """Generate embeddings using host's embedding model Args: embedding_model_uuid: Embedding model UUID texts: List of texts to embed Returns: List of embedding vectors, one per input text """ # Usage example vectors = await self.plugin.invoke_embedding("model_uuid", ["Hello", "World"]) ``` ### Vector Upsert Upsert vectors to the host's vector database. ```python async def vector_upsert( self, collection_id: str, vectors: list[list[float]], ids: list[str], metadata: list[dict[str, Any]] | None = None, documents: list[str] | None = None, ) -> None: """Upsert vectors Args: collection_id: Target collection ID vectors: List of vectors ids: List of unique IDs for vectors metadata: Optional list of metadata dicts documents: Optional raw text documents.

Supported operators: `$eq`, `$ne`, `$gt`, `$gte`, `$lt`, `$lte`, `$in`, `$nin`. > > ```python > # Implicit $eq > results = await self.plugin.vector_search( > collection_id="kb_uuid", > query_vector=[0.1, 0.2, ...], > filters={"file_id": "abc"}, > ) > > # Comparison operator > results = await self.plugin.vector_search( > collection_id="kb_uuid", > query_vector=[0.1, 0.2, ...], > filters={"created_at": {"$gte": 1700000000}}, > ) > > # In-list operator > results = await self.plugin.vector_search( > collection_id="kb_uuid", > query_vector=[0.1, 0.2, ...], > filters={"file_type": {"$in": ["pdf", "docx"]}}, > ) > > # Delete by filter > deleted = await self.plugin.vector_delete( > collection_id="kb_uuid", > filters={"file_type": {"$eq": "pdf"}}, > ) > ``` > > **Note:** Chroma, Qdrant, and SeekDB store full metadata and can filter on any field. Milvus and pgvector only store `text`, `file_id`, and `chunk_uuid` — filters on other fields will be silently ignored. Get uploaded file content from the host's storage. ```python async def get_knowledge_file_stream(self, storage_path: str) -> bytes: """Get file content Args: storage_path: File storage path (from FileObject.storage_path) Returns: File content as bytes """ # Usage example file_bytes = await self.plugin.get_knowledge_file_stream(context.file_object.storage_path) ``` ## Additional resource APIs These methods are also called through `self.plugin`. ### Invoke a rerank model ```python async def invoke_rerank( self, rerank_model_uuid: str, query: str, documents: list[str], top_k: int | None = None, extra_args: dict[str, Any] | None = None, timeout: float = 60.0, ) -> list[dict[str, Any]]: ... scores = await self.plugin.invoke_rerank( rerank_model_uuid=rerank_model_uuid, query="How do I configure a bot?", documents=["Bot configuration guide", "Plugin publishing guide"], top_k=1, ) ``` Results usually contain the original document `index` and `relevance_score`. ### Invoke a parser ```python async def invoke_parser( self, plugin_author: str, plugin_name: str, storage_path: str, mime_type: str, filename: str, metadata: dict[str, Any] | None = None, ) -> dict[str, Any]: ... parsers = await self.plugin.list_parsers(mime_type="application/pdf") if parsers: parser = parsers[0] parsed = await self.plugin.invoke_parser( plugin_author=parser["plugin_author"], plugin_name=parser["plugin_name"], storage_path=storage_path, mime_type="application/pdf", filename="guide.pdf", ) ``` `storage_path` is a Host storage path, such as `context.file_object.storage_path` during knowledge ingestion, not a plugin-local path. The result dictionary contains `text`, `sections`, and `metadata`. ### List vector records ```python async def vector_list( self, collection_id: str, filters: dict[str, Any] | None = None, limit: int = 20, offset: int = 0, ) -> dict[str, Any]: ... page = await self.plugin.vector_list( collection_id=collection_id, filters={"file_id": "doc_001"}, limit=20, offset=0, ) for item in page["items"]: print(item["id"], item.get("metadata")) ``` Returns `items` and `total`. Items contain `id`, `document`, and `metadata`; `total` is a best-effort matching count from the storage backend. Filters use the vector API format above. ### List plugins and commands ```python manifests = await self.plugin.list_plugins_manifest() commands = await self.plugin.list_commands() ``` Both methods take no arguments and return the Host-provided plugin manifest list and command list respectively. ### Box sandbox These methods use `self.plugin` and the current Workspace. Runner calls automatically retain invocation authorization. | Method | Returns | Behavior | | -------------------------------------------------------- | ------------------ | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ | | `await self.plugin.get_box_status()` | `BoxStatus` | `enabled`, `available`, capacity `limit`, `used`, `remaining`, optional managed `required_reuse_key`, and unavailable `reason` | | `await self.plugin.list_boxes()` | `list[BoxSession]` | Box `id` and `status` snapshot (`idle`, `running`, `closing`) | | `await self.plugin.acquire_box(reuse_key, options=None)` | `BoxSession` | Reuse the same key or create within capacity; `options` supports `image` | Unknown capacity fields are `None`. Zero remaining capacity still permits reuse; Runtime checks creation capacity atomically. The Runner computes reuse keys. When `required_reuse_key` is supplied, use it. Equal keys in different Workspaces never share a Box. Use the [Runner context](https://langbot.app/docs/en/plugin/dev/apis/agent-run.md#runner) to bind the Box before importing attachments or executing tools. --- # LLM request configuration Source: https://langbot.app/docs/en/plugin/dev/apis/llm-requests Retries, deadlines, reasoning budgets, caching and stream cancellation for plugins and Runners These options require a Core build containing [Core #2661](https://github.com/langbot-app/LangBot/pull/2661). A merged PR does not imply a published release. Pass them through the existing `extra_args`; plugin and Runner signatures, message types and authorization remain unchanged. See [LangBot API](https://langbot.app/docs/en/plugin/dev/apis/common.md) and [Context APIs](https://langbot.app/docs/en/plugin/dev/apis/agent-run.md). ## Retries and timeouts The following non-streaming example configures the request and reads complete usage: ```python from langbot_plugin.api.entities.builtin.provider.message import Message result = await self.plugin.invoke_llm_with_usage( llm_model_uuid=model_uuid, messages=[Message(role="user", content="Hello!")], timeout=110, extra_args={ "request_policy": { "retries": 1, "total_timeout": 90, "first_event_timeout": 30, "stream_idle_timeout": 30, "connect_timeout": 10, "read_timeout": 60, }, }, ) print(result.message.content) if result.usage is not None: print(result.usage.model_dump()) ``` Runner `ctx.api.invoke_llm*` accepts the same `extra_args`, subject to run authorization and remaining time. Calls through `self.plugin` also inherit these restrictions inside a run context. `timeout=` is the SDK/RPC waiting limit (120 seconds by default for non-streaming calls). Core's `request_policy` controls the inner request. Keep its total budget within the enclosing RPC/Runner deadline; raising it cannot extend that deadline. Streaming methods have no `timeout=` argument and remain bounded by SDK/Runner waiting limits. | `request_policy` field | Default | Meaning | | ------------------------------ | ----------- | ------------------------------------------------------------- | | `retries` | `0` | Additional attempts after the first, integer 0–5 | | `total_timeout` | `300` | Whole invocation budget, including backoff | | `first_event_timeout` | `120` | Wait for the first upstream event, not the first visible text | | `stream_idle_timeout` | `120` | Idle time between stream events | | `connect_timeout` | `10` | Connection timeout | | `read_timeout` | `120` | Transport read timeout | | `write_timeout` | `30` | Transport write timeout | | `pool_timeout` | `10` | Connection pool acquisition timeout | | `backoff_base` / `backoff_max` | `0.5` / `8` | Exponential backoff base and cap, with full jitter | | `attribution` | `True` | Automatic application attribution headers | | `conversation_header` | `None` | Generated session header name, described below | Times are seconds; timeouts must be finite and positive. Unknown policy fields are rejected. Precedence: instance `llm_request_policy`, model `extra_args`, then call `extra_args`. Within one layer, `request_policy.retries` wins over legacy `num_retries` / `max_retries`. A call-level legacy value still overrides model policy; `0` disables retries. Legacy numeric `extra_args["timeout"]` sets read, first-event and stream-idle limits without extending the total budget. Authentication, invalid-request and exhausted-quota failures are not retried. Retries stop after any upstream event, including reasoning or usage. `Retry-After` is bounded by the remaining budget. Core disables LiteLLM and provider SDK retries for managed calls; gateways may independently retry. This adds no tool replay, model fallback or embedding/rerank retries. Legacy third-party requesters still own their transport configuration. ## Reasoning budgets Existing `reasoning_level` behavior is unchanged. For a numeric budget, pass this object as `extra_args` or save it in model advanced parameters. Omitting `level` means `enabled`: ```json { "reasoning_config": {"budget_tokens": 2048}, "max_tokens": 4096 } ``` Do not combine a budget with an effort level such as `medium`, `disabled`, or native reasoning parameters. Direct Anthropic calls require explicit `max_tokens` greater than the budget; Core never raises that limit automatically. Precedence: persisted model `reasoning_config`, model `extra_args.reasoning_config`, call `extra_args.reasoning_config`, then an explicit Runner level override. Each object replaces the previous one; an effort override clears a lower-priority budget. Numeric budgets map to native Anthropic, Gemini 2.5, supported Qwen models and OpenRouter routes. Direct OpenAI/Codex and adaptive-only Claude models retain effort control. Check the model's `reasoning_capabilities.budget_tokens` for support and bounds. Unsupported budgets fail before HTTP. Providers/gateways may impose stricter limits; OpenRouter may translate a numeric budget into effort. ## Prompt caching `extra_args.prompt_caching` is consumed by Core, not forwarded unchanged. Call configuration replaces model configuration. The default `{"mode": "provider_default"}` adds no fields. This is not a local response cache. | Configuration | Behavior | | ---------------------------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | `{"mode": "openai", "retention": "in_memory"}` | Generates a model-and-conversation-scoped `prompt_cache_key` when conversation context exists; optional `retention` also accepts `24h` if supported by the target | | `{"mode": "anthropic", "ttl": "5m"}` | Adds an ephemeral breakpoint to the last text block of the leading system/developer prefix; `ttl` accepts `5m` or `1h` | OpenAI mode applies to compatible routes and OpenRouter OpenAI models supporting these options. Explicit native `prompt_cache_key`, `prompt_cache_retention` and `prompt_cache_options` win. Anthropic mode supports native Claude and OpenRouter Claude. Existing native cache markers are preserved without adding duplicates. Core does not reorder tools/history or mark user messages, and inserts nothing without an eligible prefix. Hints do not guarantee hits. Inspect `usage.model_dump()` for provider fields such as `prompt_tokens_details.cached_tokens` or `cache_read_input_tokens`; missing counts are not zero. Minimum prefix lengths, retention eligibility and pricing are provider-controlled. Codex's restricted Responses body does not accept this configuration object; existing server caching remains. General Responses migration and Gemini explicit cache-resource management are outside this change. ## Application and session headers Direct OpenRouter calls receive `HTTP-Referer: https://langbot.app`, `X-OpenRouter-Title: LangBot`, and, with conversation context, `x-session-id: lb-`. Custom gateway addresses do not automatically inherit these headers. `request_policy.attribution=False` disables only automatic application attribution. Explicit `extra_headers` remain and take precedence case-insensitively. A gateway can use an explicitly configured session header: ```json { "request_policy": {"conversation_header": "x-litellm-session-id"}, "extra_headers": { "HTTP-Referer": "https://langbot.app", "X-OpenRouter-Title": "LangBot" } } ``` Supported names: `x-session-id`, `x-litellm-session-id`, `x-langbot-conversation-id`. The last is a custom convention, not a universal provider standard, and provides no automatic routing or caching benefit. Generated identifiers are scoped by workspace/bot/pipeline/session and contain no raw session ID or prompt. They are pseudonymous, not a guarantee of anonymization, and are omitted without context. New API and other gateways may filter or rewrite headers; verify forwarding rules and actual outbound requests. ## Stream cancellation and compatibility Use `aclosing` when leaving a stream early. Allow task cancellation exceptions to propagate: ```python from contextlib import aclosing from langbot_plugin.api.entities.builtin.provider.message import Message async with aclosing(self.plugin.invoke_llm_stream_events( llm_model_uuid=model_uuid, messages=[Message(role="user", content="Hello!")], extra_args={"request_policy": {"retries": 0, "total_timeout": 90}}, )) as events: async for event in events: if event.usage is not None: print(event.usage.model_dump()) if event.chunk is not None and event.chunk.content: print(event.chunk.content) break ``` This example intentionally stops after the first nonempty content chunk and may miss final usage. For a complete response, remove `break`; a final event can have usage without a chunk. `invoke_llm` still returns `Message`, and `invoke_llm_stream` still yields `MessageChunk`. Choose `invoke_llm_with_usage` or `invoke_llm_stream_events` for accounting. Usage may be `None`; nested cache/reasoning counts and provider-specific fields are preserved. SDK ≤0.7.11 has a proxy-layer defect that delays upstream cancellation on early close. Deterministic close requires **langbot-plugin ≥0.7.12**, which publishes the fix from [SDK #177](https://github.com/langbot-app/langbot-plugin-sdk/pull/177). A Core dependency pin does not automatically upgrade a separately deployed Runtime or plugin development environment; upgrade those executing environments too. Ordinary signatures, payloads and return types remain compatible. Total deadlines include consumer time, but cannot interrupt a consumer while the generator is suspended at `yield`; expiration is enforced on the next pull. ## Diagnostics Core monitoring records expose `details.timing`, complete `usage` and structured `error`; legacy SDK exception transport is unchanged. Structured errors include `code`, `status_code`, `retryable`, `retry_after`, `request_id` and `phase`. Do not assume these fields exist on legacy exceptions received by plugins. Millisecond timings include `preparation_ms`, `transport_setup_ms`, `first_event_ms`, `first_reasoning_ms`, `first_content_ms`, `first_visible_chunk_ms`, `total_ms`, plus `attempts` and `retry_wait_ms`. The first event may be reasoning/control, and the first visible chunk may include reasoning. `request_started_ms` marks the SDK call, not a packet leaving the socket. Missing fields mean unobserved, not zero. Monitoring retains partial usage received before cancellation but cannot reconstruct missing upstream accounting. --- # Message Platform Entities Source: https://langbot.app/docs/en/plugin/dev/apis/messages LangBot supports multiple messaging platforms, and each platform has different `message entity` formats. To abstract away these differences, we have implemented a unified standard. Plugin developers only need to master and use the message entities described on this page in plugins, and LangBot's internal message processing logic can automatically handle message parsing and conversion. ## Message Chain `Messages` on messaging platforms are different from messages used for AI interaction. Messages on messaging platforms are described in the form of `message chains`. Each independent message displayed on QQ is a message chain, which can contain various `message chain components` such as `text`, `images`, `@mentions`, etc. For example: ![](https://langbot.app/docs/images/zh/plugin/dev/apis/plugin_dev_messages_01.png) This is a message chain containing one Plain component (Hello World) and one Image component (Usagi). The definitions of message chains and message chain components are located in `langbot_plugin.api.entities.builtin.platform.message`. ### Constructing Message Chains Please first import the `langbot_plugin.api.entities.builtin.platform.message` package to use the message components within it. ```python from langbot_plugin.api.entities.builtin.platform.message import * # Build a message containing text "Hello LangBot" and an image (from URL) msg_chain = MessageChain([ Plain(text="Hello LangBot"), Image(url='https://qchatgpt.rockchin.top/langbot-logo.png') ]) # Build a message containing @everyone and text "Hello LangBot" msg_chain = MessageChain([ AtAll(), Plain(text="Hello LangBot") ]) # Build a message containing @specific member and text "Hello LangBot" msg_chain = MessageChain([ At(target=123456), Plain(text="Hello LangBot") ]) ``` Currently supported message chain components: - `Source` - Source message chain information. Messages received from messaging platforms will include this component at the front of the message chain to record message information - `Plain` - Plain text message - `Quote` - Quote message - `Image` - Image message - `AtAll` - @everyone message - `At` - @specific member message - `Voice` - Voice message - Need to check messaging platform support - `Forward` - Forward message - Not supported on many platforms, not recommended - `File` - File message When creating components, named parameters must be used. For specific usage, you can check the definitions in the source code `langbot_plugin.api.entities.builtin.platform.message`. ## Other Entities In addition to the above entities, there are also entities like `Friend` and `Group`. These entities are defined in `langbot_plugin.api.entities.builtin.platform.entities`. ## Platform APIs Use [Platform APIs](https://langbot.app/docs/en/plugin/dev/apis/platform.md) to query users, manage groups, and call platform-specific actions. Runner uses the same `self.plugin` entrypoint; use `ctx.reply()` for the current conversation. --- # Pipeline Events and APIs Source: https://langbot.app/docs/en/plugin/dev/apis/pipeline-events LangBot plugins can register and handle pipeline events. For usage instructions, see [Component: Event Listener](https://langbot.app/docs/en/plugin/dev/components/event-listener.md). ## List of Events Some events have `settable attributes`, which can be modified by plugin code and used in subsequent LangBot processing. ### \*MessageReceived Triggered when any message is received in group chat or private chat. ```python class PersonMessageReceived(BaseEventModel): """When any private chat message is received""" event_name: str = "PersonMessageReceived" launcher_type: str """Launcher object type (person)""" launcher_id: typing.Union[int, str] """Sender ID""" sender_id: typing.Union[int, str] """Sender ID, same as launcher_id in private chat""" message_event: platform_events.PersonMessage """Original message event object.

Triggered when a group chat or private chat command is received. ```python class PersonCommandSent(BaseEventModel): """Triggered when a private chat command that should be processed is determined""" event_name: str = "PersonCommandSent" launcher_type: str launcher_id: typing.Union[int, str] sender_id: typing.Union[int, str] command: str """Command text""" params: list[str] """Command parameters""" text_message: str """Message text""" is_admin: bool """Whether it's an administrator""" class GroupCommandSent(BaseEventModel): """Triggered when a group chat command that should be processed is determined""" event_name: str = "GroupCommandSent" launcher_type: str launcher_id: typing.Union[int, str] sender_id: typing.Union[int, str] command: str """Command text""" params: list[str] """Command parameters""" text_message: str """Message text""" is_admin: bool """Whether it's an administrator""" ``` ### NormalMessageResponded Triggered when a message receives an LLM response. ```python class NormalMessageResponded(BaseEventModel): """Triggered when replying to a normal message""" event_name: str = "NormalMessageResponded" launcher_type: str launcher_id: typing.Union[int, str] sender_id: typing.Union[int, str] session: provider_session.Session """Session object""" prefix: str """Reply message prefix""" response_text: str """Reply message text""" finish_reason: str """Response end reason""" funcs_called: list[str] """List of called functions""" # ========== Settable Attributes ========== reply_message_chain: typing.Optional[platform_message.MessageChain] = None """Reply message component list, only effective when preventing default behavior""" ``` ### PromptPreProcessing Triggered when building the LLM response context (prompt). ```python class PromptPreProcessing(BaseEventModel): """Triggered when preprocessing prompt in session""" event_name: str = "PromptPreProcessing" session_name: str """Session name, format is person_1234567890 or group_1234567890""" # ========== Settable Attributes ========== default_prompt: list[typing.Union[provider_message.Message, provider_message.MessageChunk]] """Scenario preset (system prompt) for this conversation, can be modified, langbot_plugin.api.entities.builtin.provider.message.Message or langbot_plugin.api.entities.builtin.provider.message.MessageChunk type""" prompt: list[typing.Union[provider_message.Message, provider_message.MessageChunk]] """Existing message records for this conversation, can be modified, langbot_plugin.api.entities.builtin.provider.message.Message or langbot_plugin.api.entities.builtin.provider.message.MessageChunk type""" ``` ## EventListener context Event handlers read the current event through `event_context.event`. See [Context APIs](https://langbot.app/docs/en/plugin/dev/apis/agent-run.md#eventlistener) for the complete `EventContext` properties and methods. ### Prevent default behavior Calling `event_context.prevent_default()` stops the default handling of the current event. Only these events support it: > info: > > Only the following events can prevent default behavior: > > - PersonMessageReceived > - GroupMessageReceived > - PersonNormalMessageReceived > - GroupNormalMessageReceived > - PersonCommandSent > - GroupCommandSent > - NormalMessageResponded Call `event_context.prevent_postorder()` to stop later plugins from handling the current event. #### How it shows up in monitoring When a plugin calls `prevent_default()` on a message event to take the message over, LangBot's monitoring marks the message as "Handled by plugin author/name", and the pipeline's Runner is no longer shown as its handler. What the plugin sends while handling the event is recorded too: - Replies sent with `event_context.reply()` are recorded as replies to the message. A failed send records a `PluginReplyError` error. - Messages sent with `self.plugin.send_message()` are recorded as plugin-sent messages. A failed send records a `PluginSendError` error. - Calls to `self.plugin.invoke_llm()` / `invoke_llm_stream()` are recorded as LLM calls. Linking the plugin's messages and LLM calls to the triggering message needs a Plugin Runtime (`langbot-plugin`) that supports event origin attribution. Older Runtimes still get these records, without the link. Background work that runs after the handler returns is not linked to the message. --- # Platform APIs Source: https://langbot.app/docs/en/plugin/dev/apis/platform Call platform adapter APIs using a bot UUID. Continue using `self.plugin.send_message()` for message chains; use the API below for groups, users, and other platform features. ## Send messages, replies, and threads The standard `send_message` API returns a `MessageResult`, whose `message_id` identifies the sent message when the platform provides one. `self.plugin.send_message()` returns its serialized dictionary, so read `result["message_id"]` rather than an object attribute. The ID may be `None` or empty when the platform does not return one. Use the standard `Quote` component to express a reply or thread reference in a message chain. `Quote.id` is the referenced message or thread root ID; `origin` is the quoted message chain and may be empty. Support and reply/thread behavior depend on the adapter. For example, Slack returns the message `ts` as `message_id`, sends a chain with `Quote(id=ts)` into that thread, and appends `Quote(id=thread_ts)` to inbound channel thread replies. This uses standard message APIs, not a Slack-specific action. ```python from langbot_plugin.api.entities.builtin.platform.message import MessageChain, Plain, Quote result = await self.plugin.send_message( bot_uuid=bot_uuid, target_type="group", target_id=group_id, message_chain=MessageChain([Plain(text="Support request")]), ) message_id = result.get("message_id") if result else None if message_id is not None and message_id != "": await self.plugin.send_message( bot_uuid=bot_uuid, target_type="group", target_id=group_id, message_chain=MessageChain([ Plain(text="Follow-up"), Quote(id=message_id, origin=MessageChain([])), ]), ) ``` Use IDs from the same bot and conversation. `Quote` preserves reference metadata in serialization but adds no text to `str(message_chain)`, so it does not change command or keyword matching. ## Call a platform API ```python async def call_platform_api( self, bot_uuid: str, action: str, params: dict[str, Any] | None = None, ) -> Any: ... ``` Call through `self.plugin` in Command, EventListener, Tool, and other regular components. Results are serialized dictionaries, lists, scalars, or `None`, depending on the action, rather than platform SDK objects. ```python group = await self.plugin.call_platform_api( bot_uuid=bot_uuid, action="get_group_info", params={"group_id": "123456"}, ) ``` `bot_uuid` comes from `await self.plugin.get_bots()` or `await event_context.get_bot_uuid()` in a Pipeline event. Use platform IDs from real events or platform configuration. ### Common actions | `action` | `params` | | -------------------------------- | ------------------------------------ | | `get_user_info` | `user_id` | | `get_friend_list` | `{}` | | `get_group_info` | `group_id` | | `get_group_list` | `{}` | | `get_group_member_list` | `group_id` | | `get_group_member_info` | `group_id`, `user_id` | | `get_message` / `delete_message` | `chat_type`, `chat_id`, `message_id` | | `set_group_name` | `group_id`, `name` | | `mute_member` | `group_id`, `user_id`, `duration` | | `unmute_member` / `kick_member` | `group_id`, `user_id` | | `leave_group` | `group_id` | | `approve_friend_request` | `request_id`, `approve`, `remark` | | `approve_group_invite` | `request_id`, `approve` | | `get_file_url` | `file_id` | Supported actions vary by platform and may require bot administrator permissions. `duration` is in seconds; the meaning of `0` is platform-specific, not a universal permanent mute. Queries may depend on platform caches. Calls raise an exception if the bot is not running, the action is unsupported, or parameters are invalid. ## Platform-specific APIs Set the outer `action` to `call_platform_api` and put the platform action and parameters inside `params`. For example, read the bot account using OneBot Omni: ```python account = await self.plugin.call_platform_api( bot_uuid=bot_uuid, action="call_platform_api", params={"action": "get_login_info", "params": {}}, ) ``` Only actions declared by the adapter are allowed; this is not unrestricted pass-through to every platform endpoint. Plugins call the Host through the runtime, rather than accessing `ctx.query.adapter` or `adapter.bot`. ## Runner During Runner execution, model, tool, knowledge-base, storage, and platform calls through `self.plugin` automatically use the current run and its authorization. Do not pass `run_id`. Concurrent runs remain isolated. Do not continue these run-bound calls after the handler returns. Use `await ctx.get_bot_uuid()` for the current bot. Platform calls must match the tool grants for this invocation. Event-target grants cannot access another target. Ungranted actions, including platform-specific actions, are rejected. These calls also use Mock delivery in debug mode. ```python tools = await ctx.get_available_tools() if any(tool["name"] == "event_get_actor" for tool in tools): actor = await ctx.call_tool("event_get_actor") await ctx.log(str(actor)) ``` --- # Plugin Technical Details Source: https://langbot.app/docs/en/plugin/dev/apis/tech-details ## Architecture ![](https://langbot.app/docs/images/zh/plugin/dev/plugin_system_arch.png) In version 4.0, we introduced a high-security, high-flexibility production-grade plugin system and provided developers with rich APIs and easy-to-use supporting tools. Plugin Runtime is used to manage plugin lifecycles and coordinate interactions between LangBot and plugins. It has two operating modes: `stdio` and `websocket`. When LangBot is started directly by users (not running in a container), it uses `stdio` mode, which is common for personal users or lightweight environments. When LangBot runs in a container, it uses `websocket` mode, designed specifically for production environments. Plugin Runtime automatically starts each installed plugin and interacts through stdio. In plugin development scenarios, developers can use the `lbp` command-line tool to start plugins and connect to the running Runtime via WebSocket for debugging. --- # Workspace API Source: https://langbot.app/docs/en/plugin/dev/apis/workspace Read and manage Agents, Pipelines, bots, models, knowledge bases and more from a plugin. The Workspace API lets a plugin work with the Workspace it is installed in: list and edit Agents and Pipelines, look up bots, manage models and knowledge bases, read monitoring data, and so on. It exposes the same operations as LangBot's HTTP API, MCP server and Workspace assistant, so a plugin can automate anything a member could do through those interfaces, within the limits the member grants. Every operation has a stable ID, such as `pipeline.list` or `knowledge.base.retrieve`. A plugin can only call operations it [declares in its manifest](https://langbot.app/docs/en/plugin/dev/permissions.md#declare-permissions) and a member has granted to its installation. ## Calling an operation From any component, use `self.plugin.workspace`. Each operation has a typed method named after its ID: ```python from langbot_plugin.api.definition.components.tool.tool import Tool class WorkspaceSummary(Tool): async def call(self, params, session, query_id): result = await self.plugin.workspace.pipeline.list() if not result["ok"]: return f"Could not list pipelines: {result['error']['message']}" names = [pipeline["name"] for pipeline in result["result"]] return "Pipelines: " + ", ".join(names) ``` Methods take keyword arguments that match the operation's input schema, and editors show their types and documentation. A few names are adjusted to be valid Python: a segment that is a Python keyword gets a trailing underscore (for example `import_`), and other invalid characters become underscores. The arguments are still sent under their original names. If you prefer to choose the operation at runtime, call it by ID. Both forms behave identically: ```python result = await self.plugin.workspace.call("knowledge.base.retrieve", kb_uuid=kb_uuid, query="refund policy") ``` `await self.plugin.workspace.list()` returns the operations granted to the installation, with their input schemas, grouped into `domains`. It is useful for building a dynamic tool list or checking a grant before offering a feature. ### Inside a Runner A Runner receives a run-bound proxy as `ctx.api.workspace`. It offers the same methods and is authorized by the same installation grants; the difference is that LangBot records each call against the current run. The Agent or Pipeline that started the run may restrict which workspace operations the model should see. That selection is delivered in `ctx.resources.workspace_operations`. A Runner that exposes workspace operations to a model as tools should offer only those, and offer none when the list is empty. LangBot's built-in LocalAgent does exactly this. ## Results and errors Workspace calls never raise for business errors. They always return a dictionary: ```python # Success {"ok": True, "result": ..., "operation": {"id": "pipeline.list", ...}} # Failure {"ok": False, "error": {"code": "permission_denied", "message": "...", "details": {...}}} ``` Check `ok` before reading `result`. Common error codes: | Code | Meaning | | ------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | `permission_denied` | The operation is not granted to this installation, or the installation is disabled. `details.denied_operations` lists the missing IDs. | | `invalid_input` | The arguments do not match the operation's input schema. | | `not_found` | The referenced resource does not exist in this Workspace. | | `application_error` | The operation ran and failed; `message` explains why. | A denied operation is an expected outcome, because members may grant only part of what a plugin declares. Handle it by explaining what is missing rather than failing the whole command or run. ## Choosing operations to declare Operations carry a risk level that the member sees when confirming: - **Read** operations only return data, such as `pipeline.list` or `stats.basic`. - **Write** operations change Workspace configuration, such as `pipeline.update` or `knowledge.file.store`. - **High-risk** operations delete resources, reach outside LangBot, or consume significant resources, such as `bot.delete` or `pipeline.chat.broadcast`. The confirmation dialog highlights them. The member who grants an operation must hold its permission themselves (the last column below). Ask only for what your plugin needs; a request for many high-risk operations is likely to be declined or trimmed. Wildcards such as `knowledge.*` request every operation under a prefix. Not every prefix can be used this way; see [Wildcards](https://langbot.app/docs/en/plugin/dev/permissions.md#wildcards). ## Operation reference This reference covers every operation a plugin can request in the current LangBot version, grouped by domain. Methods are shown on `workspace`, which is `self.plugin.workspace` in components and `ctx.api.workspace` in a Runner. The SDK's typed methods are generated from this catalog, so every operation listed here is available as a method. ### Adapter (`adapter`) | Operation | ID and method | Risk | Granting member needs | |

Changing the language stays with members. --- # Completing Plugin Configuration Information Source: https://langbot.app/docs/en/plugin/dev/basic-info ## Modifying the Manifest File The `manifest.yaml` file in the plugin directory declares the basic information about the plugin, which will be displayed in the LangBot UI or plugin marketplace interfaces. The plugin-level `spec.permissions` lists the capabilities and Workspace operations the plugin needs. A Workspace member confirms them after installation; see [Plugin permissions](https://langbot.app/docs/en/plugin/dev/permissions.md). ```yaml apiVersion: v1 # Do not modify kind: Plugin # Do not modify metadata: author: RockChinQ # Author, must match regex ^[a-zA-Z0-9_-]+$ name: HelloPlugin # Plugin name, used to distinguish plugins, must match regex ^[a-zA-Z0-9-]+$ repository: 'https://github.com/langbot-app/HelloPlugin' # Plugin repository URL version: 0.1.0 # Plugin version description: en_US: 'Hello LangBot Plugin' # Plugin description, multilingual zh_Hans: 'Hello LangBot Plugin' label: en_US: HelloPlugin # Plugin label, displayed in the interface, multilingual zh_Hans: HelloPlugin icon: assets/icon.svg # Plugin icon, defaults to assets/icon.svg, can be replaced with various image formats spec: permissions: # Capabilities and Workspace operations the plugin needs; see Plugin permissions capabilities: [] workspace_operations: [] config: [] # Plugin configuration item format components: {} # Plugin component list, no need to modify manually execution: python: path: main.py # Do not modify attr: HelloPlugin # Do not modify ``` To certify your plugin and let several installations share one runtime, also declare `sharedRuntime` and `componentModel` under `execution`; see [Certified plugins and shared runtime](https://langbot.app/docs/en/plugin/certified-plugins.md). Plugin multilingual support follows the [RFC 4646](https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc4646) standard. Currently supported languages include: - `en_US` English (required) - `zh_Hans` Simplified Chinese - `zh_Hant` Traditional Chinese - `ja_JP` Japanese - `vi_VN` Vietnamese - `th_TH` Thai - `es_ES` Spanish ## Plugin Configuration Item Format In the `manifest.yaml` file, fields declared in `spec.config` will be rendered by LangBot as configuration item forms for users to fill out. Plugins can retrieve user-filled configuration items through APIs provided by the SDK (see later sections). For example: ```yaml spec: config: - name: github_token # Required; configuration item name, used for retrieval in the plugin type: string # Required; configuration item type, supports string, integer, float, boolean, select, prompt-editor, llm-model-selector, bot-selector, tools-selector, etc. label: # Required; configuration item display name, supports multilingual. Language codes follow RFC 4646 standard. en_US: Github Token zh_Hans: Github Token description: # Configuration item description, supports multilingual. Optional. en_US: Image downloading requires a Github token zh_Hans: 如果不填的话,图片可能会下载失败 default: '' # Configuration item default value, optional. required: false # Whether the configuration item is required, optional. show_if: # Conditional rendering (shows when conditions are met), optional. field: mode operator: eq value: mode1 - name: mode type: select ... ``` The supported types and fields for configuration items are as follows: ### Conditional Rendering (`show_if`) All types of configuration items support conditional rendering using the `show_if` field. You can decide whether the current field is rendered based on the value of another field in the same (or an associated) form. ```yaml - name: advanced_setting type: string show_if: field: mode # The name of the dependent field operator: eq # The operator, supports 'eq' (equals), 'neq' (not equals), 'in' (in a list) value: advanced # The value to check against ``` > **Note:** Cross-form cascading relationships (e.g. `creation_schema` values reading from `retrieval_schema` values and vice versa in a Knowledge Engine) are supported in the latest LangBot frontend. ### type: string String type. Optionally supports `options` for preset values — when provided, a dropdown button appears next to the input allowing users to quickly fill in a preset value. Users can still type freely. ```yaml - name: api_key type: string ... ``` With preset options: ```yaml - name: api_url type: string options: # Optional preset values, displayed as a dropdown button next to the input. - name: "https://api.openai.com/v1" # The value to fill in when selected. label: # Display name, supports multilingual. en_US: OpenAI Official zh_Hans: OpenAI 官方 - name: "https://api.deepseek.com/v1" label: en_US: DeepSeek zh_Hans: DeepSeek ... ``` ### type: array\[string] String array. ```yaml - name: tags type: array[string] ... ``` ### type: integer Integer type. ```yaml - name: progress type: integer ... ``` ### type: float Float type. ```yaml - name: temperature type: float ... ``` ### type: boolean Boolean type. ```yaml - name: is_enabled type: boolean ... ``` ### type: select Dropdown menu. Requires configuring `options`, which represents the dropdown menu options. Each option displays its `label` as the primary text, with the `name` (value) shown in smaller text below. ```yaml - name: mode type: select allow_custom: true options: # Dropdown options, supports multilingual. - name: mode1 # Value, displayed as secondary text in the dropdown. label: # Display name, supports multilingual. en_US: Mode 1 zh_Hans: 模式 1 - name: mode2 label: # Display name, supports multilingual. en_US: Mode 2 zh_Hans: 模式 2 ... ``` Set `allow_custom: true` to add a Custom option alongside the presets. A text input appears only when Custom is selected. The saved value is the selected `name` or the custom string, never a Custom marker. This also applies to a runner’s `spec.config`. ### type: prompt-editor Prompt editor. Displays a prompt editor from the pipeline configuration page, with the final result represented in OpenAI's `messages` format. ```yaml - name: prompt type: prompt-editor ... ``` ### type: text Large text input. Rendered as a textarea in the frontend for user input, and passed to the plugin as a string. ```yaml - name: prompt type: text ... ``` ### type: file File upload. Supports file uploads up to 10MB, passed to the plugin in the format `{"file_key": "xxxxx.xxx", "mimetype": "xxxxx"}`. The plugin can use the `get_config_file` API to retrieve the file content. ```yaml - name: config_file type: file accept: 'application/json' # Optional, specify accepted file MIME types ... ``` Retrieving the file in the plugin: ```python # Get file information from config file_config = self.get_config()['config_file'] file_key = file_config['file_key'] mimetype = file_config['mimetype'] # Example output: {'file_input': {'file_key': 'plugin_config_d2234fd802054faf80babe0679a97fa9.json', 'mimetype': 'application/json'}} print(file_config) # Get file content file_bytes = await self.get_config_file(file_key) ``` > info: > > Common MIME type and file extension reference: [MDN Documentation](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Basics_of_HTTP/MIME_types/Common_types) ### type: array\[file] Multiple file upload. Similar to the file type, but supports uploading multiple files, passed to the plugin in the format `[{"file_key": "xxxxx.xxx", "mimetype": "xxxxx"}]`. ```yaml - name: resource_files type: array[file] accept: 'image/*' # Optional, specify accepted file MIME types ... ``` Retrieving files in the plugin: ```python # Get file list from config files_config = self.get_config()['resource_files'] for file_config in files_config: file_key = file_config['file_key'] mimetype = file_config['mimetype'] # Get file content file_bytes = await self.get_config_file(file_key) ``` ### type: llm-model-selector LLM model selector. Displays an LLM model selector where you can choose configured LLM models, with the final result represented as the LLM model UUID. ```yaml - name: model type: llm-model-selector ... ``` ### type: bot-selector Bot selector. Displays a Bot selector where you can choose configured Bots, with the final result represented as the Bot UUID. ```yaml - name: bot type: bot-selector ... ``` Using the Bot UUID in the plugin: ```python # Get Bot UUID from config bot_uuid = self.get_config()['bot'] print(bot_uuid) # Output: '550e8400-e29b-41d4-a716-446655440000' ``` ### type: tools-selector Tool selector. Displays a multi-select tool selector where you can choose registered tools (plugin tools and MCP tools), with the final result represented as an array of tool names. ```yaml - name: selected_tools type: tools-selector ... ``` Using the selected tool names in the plugin: ```python # Get selected tool names from config selected_tools = self.get_config()['selected_tools'] print(selected_tools) # Output: ['get_weather_alerts', 'web_search'] # Call selected tools for tool_name in selected_tools: result = await self.plugin.call_tool( tool_name=tool_name, parameters={"query": "hello"}, session={}, query_id=0, ) ``` ## What's Next This tutorial will guide you through step-by-step completion of plugin functionality. - Adding Components: Plugin components are the core functional units of plugins. You can [add components](https://langbot.app/docs/en/plugin/dev/components/add.md) based on your needs. --- # Adding Components Source: https://langbot.app/docs/en/plugin/dev/components/add Plugins consist of one or more components that provide different functionalities to LangBot. Currently supported component types include: - Plugin processor (Runner): handles platform events in plugin code after an instance is created and bound. See the [tutorial](https://langbot.app/docs/en/plugin/dev/components/runner.md). - Agent runner (Runner): provides execution logic selected in an Agent configuration; it is distinct from a standalone plugin processor. - Event Listeners (EventListener): Listen to events during pipeline execution and modify context or pipelines. - Commands (Command): Triggered by user command messages starting with `!` (or other configured prefixes). - Tools (Tool): Called by LLMs during execution of LangBot's built-in Local Agent. - Knowledge Engines (KnowledgeEngine): Provide knowledge base indexing and retrieval capabilities for LangBot, managing document ingestion, retrieval, and deletion. - Parsers (Parser): Parse binary files such as PDF, Word, etc. into structured text before document ingestion, for use by Knowledge Engines. - Pages (Page): Register custom visual pages in the LangBot WebUI sidebar, providing admin panels, data displays, and interactive interfaces. ## Adding Components Execute the command in the plugin directory: ```bash lbp comp ``` For example, to add an event listener: ```bash lbp comp EventListener ``` Follow the prompts to enter the component configuration (if any). ```bash ➜ HelloPlugin > lbp comp EventListener Generating component EventListener... Component EventListener generated successfully. 组件 EventListener 生成成功。 ➜ HelloPlugin > ``` > : > > The CLI will generate a `components` directory in the plugin directory and create corresponding component directories within it. > > ``` > . > ├── assets > │ └── icon.svg > ├── components > │ ├── __init__.py > │ └── event_listener > │ ├── __init__.py > │ ├── default.py > │ └── default.yaml > ├── main.py > ├── manifest.yaml > ├── README.md > └── requirements.txt > ``` > > At the same time, component discovery configuration will be added to the plugin's `manifest.yaml`: > > ```yaml > ... > components: > EventListener: > fromDirs: > - path: components/event_listener/ > ... > ``` > > To remove components, you can delete the corresponding information manually. ## Component Types For detailed usage of each component, please refer to: - [Runner](https://langbot.app/docs/en/plugin/dev/components/runner.md) - [EventListener](https://langbot.app/docs/en/plugin/dev/components/event-listener.md) - [Command](https://langbot.app/docs/en/plugin/dev/components/command.md) - [Tool](https://langbot.app/docs/en/plugin/dev/components/tool.md) - [KnowledgeEngine](https://langbot.app/docs/en/plugin/dev/components/knowledge-engine.md) - [Parser](https://langbot.app/docs/en/plugin/dev/components/parser.md) - [Page](https://langbot.app/docs/en/plugin/dev/components/page.md) --- # Component: Command Source: https://langbot.app/docs/en/plugin/dev/components/command Command components are triggered by user command messages starting with `!` (or other configured prefixes). Here's an example of triggering the `!help` command: ![](https://langbot.app/docs/images/zh/plugin/dev/components/command_use.png) ## Adding Command Components A single plugin can contain any number of commands. Execute the command `lbp comp Command` in the plugin directory and follow the prompts to enter the command configuration. ```bash ➜ HelloPlugin > lbp comp Command Generating component Command... Command name: info Command description: Show information of the query Component Command generated successfully. 组件 Command 生成成功。 ``` This will generate `info.yaml` and `info.py` files in the `components/commands/` directory. The `.yaml` file defines the basic information for the `!info` command, and the `.py` file is the command handler: ```bash ➜ HelloPlugin > tree ... ├── components │ ├── __init__.py │ ├── commands │ │ ├── __init__.py │ │ ├── info.py │ │ └── info.yaml ... ``` ## Manifest File: Command Component ```yaml apiVersion: v1 # Do not modify kind: Command # Do not modify metadata: name: info # Command name, users will trigger this command with !info label: # Command display name, shown in LangBot UI, supports multilingual en_US: Info zh_Hans: Info description: # Command description, shown in LangBot UI, supports multilingual. Optional. en_US: 'Show information of the query' zh_Hans: '发送此次消息的详细信息' spec: execution: python: path: info.py # Command handler, do not modify attr: Info # Command handler class name, matches the class name in info.py ``` ## Plugin Processing The following code is generated by default (`components/command/.py`). You need to register and implement subcommand processing logic in the `initialize` method of the `Info` class. ```python # Auto generated by LangBot Plugin SDK. # Please refer to https://langbot.app/docs/en/plugin/dev/tutor.html for more details. from __future__ import annotations from typing import Any, AsyncGenerator from langbot_plugin.api.definition.components.command.command import Command, Subcommand from langbot_plugin.api.entities.builtin.command.context import ExecuteContext, CommandReturn class Info(Command): async def initialize(self): await super().initialize() "Fill with your code here" ``` Adding subcommands: ```python ... class Info(Command): async def initialize(self): await super().initialize() @self.subcommand( name="", # Empty string represents root command help="Show information of the query", # Command help information usage="info", # Command usage example, displayed in command help aliases=["i"], # Command aliases ) async def send(self, context: ExecuteContext) -> AsyncGenerator[CommandReturn, None]: print(context) reply_text = f"Query ID: {context.query_id}\n" reply_text += f"command: {context.command}\n" reply_text += f"command_text: {context.command_text}\n" reply_text += f"params: {context.params}\n" reply_text += f"crt_params: {context.crt_params}\n" reply_text += f"privilege: {context.privilege}\n" reply_text += f"session: {context.session.launcher_type.value}_{context.session.launcher_id}\n" yield CommandReturn( text=reply_text, ) @self.subcommand( name="field", help="Show information of the field", usage="info field", aliases=["f"], ) async def field(self, context: ExecuteContext) -> AsyncGenerator[CommandReturn, None]: print(context) field_name = context.crt_params[0] field_value = getattr(context, field_name) yield CommandReturn( text=f"{field_name}: {field_value}", ) ``` In this code, the `send` function is registered as a subcommand through the `@self.subcommand` decorator, prints the command context (ExecuteContext) information, and concatenates it into a reply message. ### Subcommand Registration `name` is the subcommand name. Leaving it empty means handling the main command. If not empty, it matches the second parameter as the command. For example: - `!info` matches the subcommand with name="" - `!info field` matches the subcommand with name="field" - `!info field value` matches the subcommand with name="field", with `value` as the subcommand parameter - Specialy, `name="*"` matches all unmatched first-level subcommands, and passes each section after `info` as parameters, for example `!info 123`, `!info abc`. You can get `['123']` or `['abc']` from `context.crt_params`, depending on the user's input. In subcommand functions, you can read command parameters through the `context` variable. The effect of the above command is shown in the image: ![](https://langbot.app/docs/images/zh/plugin/dev/components/info_command_demo.png) ### Command Context ```python class ExecuteContext(pydantic.BaseModel): """Single command execution context""" query_id: int """Request ID""" session: provider_session.Session """Session object for this message""" command_text: str """Complete command text""" command: str """Command name""" crt_command: str """Current command In multi-level commands, crt_command is the current command, command is the root command. Example: !plugin on Webwlkr When processing plugin, command is plugin, crt_command is plugin When processing on, command is plugin, crt_command is on """ params: list[str] """Command parameters Parameter list after splitting the entire command by spaces """ crt_params: list[str] """Current command parameters In multi-level commands, crt_params are current command parameters, params are root command parameters. Example: !plugin on Webwlkr When processing plugin, params is ['on', 'Webwlkr'], crt_params is ['on', 'Webwlkr'] When processing on, params is ['on', 'Webwlkr'], crt_params is ['Webwlkr'] """ privilege: int """Session privilege level""" ... ``` ### Command Return Values Command return values (CommandReturn) currently support returning text, images (image\_url, image links), and errors. ```python yield CommandReturn( text=reply_text, ) yield CommandReturn( image_url=image_url, ) ``` Command processing supports returning multiple messages, so please use `yield` statements to return messages. For specific return values, please refer to the definition of `CommandReturn`: [langbot\_plugin.api.entities.builtin.command.context.CommandReturn](https://github.com/langbot-app/langbot-plugin-sdk/tree/main/src/langbot_plugin/api/entities/builtin/command/context.py) ## One installation, many usages A single command is triggered **concurrently by several conversations**: - Read config per call; never read it in `initialize()` and cache it on the instance. - Never leave command arguments, return values or conversation data on instance fields or module-level variables; `ExecuteContext` is valid only for the current execution. - Concurrent triggering means instance fields get interleaved writes — do not use them to hold "current conversation" style state. Data that must survive calls belongs in Host storage, keyed with the conversation identity. - If you keep per-installation process-local caches, release them in `on_installation_revoked(binding)`. See [Certified plugins and shared runtime](https://langbot.app/docs/en/plugin/certified-plugins.md) for the full specification. ## What's Next You have learned the basic information about command registration and command execution. Next, you can: - See the complete [`ExecuteContext` API reference](https://langbot.app/docs/en/plugin/dev/apis/agent-run.md#command). - Check out [Plugin Common APIs](https://langbot.app/docs/en/plugin/dev/apis/common.md). --- # Component: Event Listener Source: https://langbot.app/docs/en/plugin/dev/components/event-listener > info: > > This component extends Pipeline processing steps. To handle Bot events such as incoming messages and new group members, see [Event Processor](https://langbot.app/docs/en/plugin/dev/components/runner.md). LangBot's pipeline generates events during runtime for plugins to hook into and process. Each plugin can only have one event listener (components/event\_listener/default.yaml), but can register any number of events within it. ## Adding Event Listener Component Execute the command `lbp comp EventListener` in the plugin directory. Creating an event listener component doesn't require any configuration. ```bash ➜ HelloPlugin > lbp comp EventListener Generating component EventListener... Component EventListener generated successfully. 组件 EventListener 生成成功。 ``` This will generate `default.yaml` and `default.py` files in the `components/event_listener/` directory. The `.yaml` file defines the basic information for the event listener, and the `.py` file is the event listener handler: ```bash ➜ HelloPlugin > tree ... ├── components │ ├── __init__.py │ └── event_listener │ ├── __init__.py │ ├── default.py │ └── default.yaml ... ``` ## Manifest File: Event Listener Since each plugin can only have one event listener, no modifications are needed in the manifest file. ## Plugin Processing The following code is generated by default (components/event\_listener/default.py). You need to register and implement event processing logic in the `initialize` method of the `DefaultEventListener` class. ```python # Auto generated by LangBot Plugin SDK. # Please refer to https://langbot.app/docs/en/plugin/dev/tutor.html for more details. from __future__ import annotations from langbot_plugin.api.definition.components.common.event_listener import EventListener from langbot_plugin.api.entities import events, context class DefaultEventListener(EventListener): async def initialize(self): await super().initialize() "Fill with your code here" ``` Adding listeners for specific events: ```python ... class DefaultEventListener(EventListener): async def initialize(self): await super().initialize() @self.handler(events.PersonMessageReceived) async def handler(event_context: context.EventContext): print("Hello LangBot Plugin!") print(event_context) await event_context.reply( platform_message.MessageChain([ platform_message.Plain(text=f"Hello from Nahida Plugin!"), ]) ) ``` This code registers a listener for the `PersonMessageReceived` (receiving any message from private chat) event, prints the event context (EventContext) information when the event is triggered, and calls the event context API to reply with a message. EventContext stores common context information for this event trigger, while EventContext.event is an object of PersonMessageReceived (or other corresponding event types), storing detailed information about the event. ```python # Summary of EventContext definition class EventContext(pydantic.BaseModel): """Event context, stores information for this event execution""" ... event: pydantic.SerializeAsAny[BaseEventModel] """Event object, specific type is the type specified when registering the handler, can be found in events.py""" ... ``` ## Event Registration Event registration is implemented through the `@self.handler` decorator, with the decorator parameter being the event type. All monitorable events are defined in `langbot_plugin.api.entities.builtin.events`. ## One installation, many usages The same event listener is called **concurrently by several Workspaces and several events**: - Never accumulate state per event on the instance (counters, last event, conversation maps); concurrent callbacks will overwrite each other. - A callback takes its data only from the current `EventContext`; never reuse a context or its fields across calls. - Data that must survive calls belongs in Host storage, keyed with the installation identity and the event-related identity (Workspace, conversation, and so on). - If you keep per-installation process-local state, release it in `on_installation_revoked(binding)`. See [Certified plugins and shared runtime](https://langbot.app/docs/en/plugin/certified-plugins.md) for the full specification. ## What's Next You have learned the basic information about event listeners. Next, you can: - See [Pipeline Events](https://langbot.app/docs/en/plugin/dev/apis/pipeline-events.md) for event types and fields. - See the complete [`EventContext` API reference](https://langbot.app/docs/en/plugin/dev/apis/agent-run.md#eventlistener). - Check out [Plugin Common APIs](https://langbot.app/docs/en/plugin/dev/apis/common.md) --- # Component: Knowledge Engine Source: https://langbot.app/docs/en/plugin/dev/components/knowledge-engine The Knowledge Engine component allows plugins to provide full knowledge base indexing and retrieval capabilities for LangBot. When users create a knowledge base in LangBot, they can choose a Knowledge Engine provided by a plugin to manage document ingestion, retrieval, and deletion. Plugins can also bridge advanced knowledge base services such as Dify, RAGFlow, FastGPT, and more. ## Adding a Knowledge Engine Component A single plugin can add any number of Knowledge Engines. Execute the command `lbp comp KnowledgeEngine` in the plugin directory and follow the prompts to enter the Knowledge Engine configuration. ```bash ➜ MyRAGPlugin > lbp comp KnowledgeEngine Generating component KnowledgeEngine... Knowledge Engine name: simple_rag Knowledge Engine description: A simple Knowledge Engine with built-in chunking and retrieval Component KnowledgeEngine generated successfully. ``` This will generate `simple_rag.yaml` and `simple_rag.py` files in the `components/knowledge_engine/` directory. The `.yaml` file defines the Knowledge Engine's basic information and configuration schemas, and the `.py` file is the handler for this engine: ```bash ➜ MyRAGPlugin > tree ... ├── components │ ├── __init__.py │ └── knowledge_engine │ ├── __init__.py │ ├── simple_rag.py │ └── simple_rag.yaml ... ``` ## Manifest File: Knowledge Engine ```yaml apiVersion: v1 # Do not modify kind: KnowledgeEngine # Do not modify metadata: name: simple_rag # Knowledge Engine name, used to identify this engine label: en_US: Simple Knowledge Engine # Engine display name, shown in LangBot's UI, supports multiple languages zh_Hans: 简易 RAG 引擎 ja_JP: シンプル RAG エンジン description: en_US: 'A simple Knowledge Engine with built-in chunking and retrieval' zh_Hans: '内置分块和检索能力的简易 RAG 引擎' ja_JP: 'チャンキングと検索を内蔵したシンプルなRAGエンジン' spec: creation_schema: # Configuration parameters users fill in when creating a knowledge base - name: chunk_size label: en_US: Chunk Size zh_Hans: 分块大小 type: integer required: false default: 500 - name: chunk_overlap label: en_US: Chunk Overlap zh_Hans: 分块重叠 type: integer required: false default: 50 retrieval_schema: # Configurable parameters during retrieval - name: score_threshold label: en_US: Score Threshold zh_Hans: 分数阈值 type: float required: false default: 0.5 execution: python: path: simple_rag.py # Engine handler, do not modify attr: SimpleRag # Class name of the engine handler, consistent with the class name in simple_rag.py ``` For configuration item format reference, see: [Plugin Manifest Configuration Format](https://langbot.app/docs/en/plugin/dev/basic-info.md) ### creation\_schema and retrieval\_schema Unlike the old `KnowledgeRetriever` component which used a single `spec.config`, KnowledgeEngine uses two separate schemas: - **creation\_schema**: Parameters users fill in when creating a knowledge base. These are passed to the plugin via `creation_settings` during ingestion and retrieval. - **retrieval\_schema**: Parameters users can adjust when querying the knowledge base. These are passed to the plugin via `retrieval_settings`. ## Capability Declaration KnowledgeEngine can declare its supported capabilities. LangBot uses these capability declarations to determine UI behavior and available operations: ```python from langbot_plugin.api.definition.components.knowledge_engine.engine import KnowledgeEngine, KnowledgeEngineCapability class SimpleRag(KnowledgeEngine): @classmethod def get_capabilities(cls) -> list[str]: return [ KnowledgeEngineCapability.DOC_INGESTION, # Supports document upload and processing ] ``` Available capability constants: | Capability | Description | | --------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | `DOC_INGESTION` | Supports document upload and processing. When declared, LangBot shows a "Documents" tab in the knowledge base details. If the plugin is used to bridge other knowledge base services or does not require users to upload documents, this capability declaration can be omitted. | | `DOC_PARSING` | Supports native document parsing (file-to-text extraction). When declared, users can choose to use the Knowledge Engine's built-in parsing when uploading documents, without needing an external [Parser plugin](https://langbot.app/docs/en/plugin/dev/components/parser.md). If not declared, an external Parser plugin must be installed to upload documents. | > info: > > Other retrieval behaviors (such as reranking, hybrid search, etc.) are controlled by the plugin's `retrieval_schema` and do not need capability flags. ## Plugin Handler The following code will be generated by default (`components/knowledge_engine/.py`). You need to implement the three core methods: `ingest`, `retrieve`, and `delete_document`. See the official [LangRAG knowledge engine](https://github.com/langbot-app/LangBot/tree/master/plugins/KnowledgeEngine/LangRAG) for a complete implementation. ```python from langbot_plugin.api.definition.components.knowledge_engine.engine import KnowledgeEngine, KnowledgeEngineCapability from langbot_plugin.api.entities.builtin.rag.models import ( IngestionContext, IngestionResult, ) from langbot_plugin.api.entities.builtin.rag.context import ( RetrievalContext, RetrievalResponse, RetrievalResultEntry, ) from langbot_plugin.api.entities.builtin.rag.enums import DocumentStatus from langbot_plugin.api.entities.builtin.provider.message import ContentElement class SimpleRag(KnowledgeEngine): @classmethod def get_capabilities(cls) -> list[str]: return [KnowledgeEngineCapability.DOC_INGESTION] async def on_knowledge_base_create(self, kb_id: str, config: dict) -> None: """Callback when a knowledge base is created, can be used to initialize resources""" pass async def on_knowledge_base_delete(self, kb_id: str) -> None: """Callback when a knowledge base is deleted, can be used to clean up resources""" pass async def ingest(self, context: IngestionContext) -> IngestionResult: """Ingest a document into the knowledge base""" # 1.

Plugins can access it via `context.retrieval_settings.get('top_k', 5)`. > > The `filters` field contains Chroma-style `where` filter conditions extracted from `retrieval_settings`. When the caller provides `filters` in the retrieval settings (e.g., filtering by time range, file type, or custom metadata fields), the host populates this field so plugins can apply them during retrieval. If no filters are provided, this field is an empty dict. **RetrievalResponse** should return the retrieval results: ```python class RetrievalResponse(pydantic.BaseModel): results: list[RetrievalResultEntry] # List of retrieval results total_found: int # Total number of matches metadata: dict # Additional metadata ``` **RetrievalResultEntry** represents a single retrieval result: ```python class RetrievalResultEntry(pydantic.BaseModel): id: str # Result ID content: list[ContentElement] # Content, create using ContentElement.from_text() metadata: dict # Metadata distance: float # Distance score (smaller is more relevant) score: float | None = None # Similarity score (larger is more relevant) ``` ### Document Deletion The `delete_document` method is called when a user deletes a document from the knowledge base: ```python async def delete_document(self, kb_id: str, document_id: str) -> bool: """Delete a document and its associated data Args: kb_id: Knowledge base ID document_id: Document ID Returns: Whether the deletion was successful """ ``` ## Host RAG APIs KnowledgeEngine components can call LangBot host-provided RAG APIs via `self.plugin`, including embedding model invocation, vector database operations, and file retrieval. ### Invoke Embedding Model ```python async def invoke_embedding( self, embedding_model_uuid: str, texts: list[str], ) -> list[list[float]]: """Generate embeddings using host's embedding model Args: embedding_model_uuid: Embedding model UUID texts: List of texts to embed Returns: List of embedding vectors, one per input text """ # Usage example vectors = await self.plugin.invoke_embedding("model_uuid", ["Hello", "World"]) ``` ### Vector Upsert ```python async def vector_upsert( self, collection_id: str, vectors: list[list[float]], ids: list[str], metadata: list[dict] | None = None, ) -> None: """Upsert vectors to host's vector database Args: collection_id: Target collection ID vectors: List of vectors ids: List of unique IDs for vectors metadata: Optional list of metadata dicts """ # Usage example await self.plugin.vector_upsert( collection_id="kb_uuid", vectors=[[0.1, 0.2, ...], [0.3, 0.4, ...]], ids=["chunk_0", "chunk_1"], metadata=[{"document_id": "doc1"}, {"document_id": "doc1"}], ) ``` ### Vector Search ```python async def vector_search( self, collection_id: str, query_vector: list[float], top_k: int = 5, filters: dict | None = None, ) -> list[dict]: """Search similar vectors in host's vector database Args: collection_id: Target collection ID query_vector: Query vector for similarity search top_k: Number of results to return filters: Optional metadata filters Returns: List of search results (dict with id, score, metadata, etc.) """ # Usage example results = await self.plugin.vector_search( collection_id="kb_uuid", query_vector=[0.1, 0.2, ...], top_k=5, ) # Return format: [{"id": "chunk_0", "score": 0.123, "metadata": {"document_id": "doc1", ...}}, ...] ``` > info: > > Each result returned by `vector_search` is a dict containing `id` (vector ID), `score` (distance score), and `metadata` (metadata provided during upsert). If you need text content in retrieval results, store the text in metadata during ingestion. ### Vector Delete ```python async def vector_delete( self, collection_id: str, file_ids: list[str] | None = None, filters: dict | None = None, ) -> int: """Delete vectors from host's vector database Args: collection_id: Target collection ID file_ids: File IDs whose vectors should be deleted filters: Optional metadata filters for deletion Returns: Number of deleted items """ # Usage example deleted = await self.plugin.vector_delete( collection_id="kb_uuid", file_ids=["doc_001"], ) ``` > info: > > The `filters` parameter supports Chroma-style `where` syntax for metadata filtering. Multiple top-level keys are AND-ed. Supported operators: `$eq`, `$ne`, `$gt`, `$gte`, `$lt`, `$lte`, `$in`, `$nin`. Example: `{"file_id": {"$eq": "abc"}}`. > > **Note:** Chroma, Qdrant, and SeekDB store full metadata and can filter on any field. Milvus and pgvector only store `text`, `file_id`, and `chunk_uuid` — filters on other fields will be silently ignored. ```python async def get_knowledge_file_stream(self, storage_path: str) -> bytes: """Get file content from host storage Args: storage_path: File storage path (from FileObject.storage_path) Returns: File content as bytes """ # Usage example file_bytes = await self.plugin.get_knowledge_file_stream(context.file_object.storage_path) ``` ## One installation, many usages A single knowledge engine is used by **several knowledge bases** at once, and the platform storage key `(instance, Workspace, owner type, plugin, key)` carries no knowledge-base dimension: - Persistence and cache keys must include the **knowledge-base ID**, otherwise vectors and document state of different knowledge bases overwrite each other. - Locks and reconciliation state must be keyed by `(installation, knowledge base)`; **a failure while ingesting one knowledge base must not block ingestion or retrieval of the others under the same installation**. - Only a dispatched mutation with an unknown outcome should enter a state that needs manual reconciliation; deterministic validation errors and pre-dispatch cancellation must not affect later calls. - Telemetry and diagnostic failures must not affect the work: never let a log or report failure interrupt ingestion or retrieval, and never write tenant data into a process-wide singleton. - If you keep per-installation process-local caches or state, release them in `on_installation_revoked(binding)`. See [Certified plugins and shared runtime](https://langbot.app/docs/en/plugin/certified-plugins.md) for the full specification. ## Testing the Knowledge Engine After creation, execute the command `lbp run` in the plugin directory to start debugging. Then in LangBot: 1. Go to the "Knowledge Base" page 2. Click "Create Knowledge Base" 3. Select the Knowledge Engine provided by your plugin and fill in the configuration based on the engine's `creation_schema` 4. After creation, upload documents to test ingestion capabilities (if the engine declares `DOC_INGESTION` capability) 5. Bind the knowledge base to a pipeline and test retrieval capabilities --- # Component: Knowledge Retriever Source: https://langbot.app/docs/en/plugin/dev/components/knowledge-retriever The Knowledge Retriever component allows plugins to provide external knowledge base retrieval capabilities for LangBot. When users create an external knowledge base in LangBot, they can choose a knowledge retriever provided by a plugin to retrieve knowledge. ![](https://langbot.app/docs/images/zh/plugin/dev/components/knowledge_retriever_use.png) ## Adding a Knowledge Retriever Component A single plugin can add any number of knowledge retrievers. Execute the command `lbp comp KnowledgeRetriever` in the plugin directory and follow the prompts to enter the knowledge retriever configuration. ```bash ➜ FastGPTRetriever > lbp comp KnowledgeRetriever Generating component KnowledgeRetriever... KnowledgeRetriever name: fastgpt KnowledgeRetriever description: Retrieve knowledge from FastGPT knowledge bases Component KnowledgeRetriever generated successfully. ``` This will generate `fastgpt.yaml` and `fastgpt.py` files in the `components/knowledge_retriever/` directory. The `.yaml` file defines the basic information and configuration parameters of the knowledge retriever, and the `.py` file is the handler for this retriever: ```bash ➜ FastGPTRetriever > tree ... ├── components │ ├── __init__.py │ └── knowledge_retriever │ ├── __init__.py │ ├── fastgpt.py │ └── fastgpt.yaml ... ``` ## Manifest File: Knowledge Retriever ```yaml apiVersion: v1 # Do not modify kind: KnowledgeRetriever # Do not modify metadata: name: fastgpt # Knowledge retriever name, used to identify this retriever label: en_US: FastGPT Knowledge Base # Retriever display name, shown in LangBot's UI, supports multiple languages zh_Hans: FastGPT 知识库 ja_JP: FastGPT ナレッジベース description: en_US: 'Retrieve knowledge from FastGPT knowledge bases' # Retriever description, shown in LangBot's UI, supports multiple languages.

You need to implement the knowledge retrieval logic in the `retrieve` method of the `FastGPT` class. Complete code can be found in [official plugins](https://github.com/langbot-app/LangBot/tree/master/plugins). ```python # Auto generated by LangBot Plugin SDK. # Please refer to https://langbot.app/docs/en/plugin/dev/tutor.html for more details. ... class FastGPT(KnowledgeRetriever): async def retrieve(self, context: RetrievalContext) -> list[RetrievalResultEntry]: """Retrieve knowledge from FastGPT knowledge base""" # 1.

See [Certified plugins and shared runtime](https://langbot.app/docs/en/plugin/certified-plugins.md) for the full specification. ## Testing the Retriever After creation, execute the command `lbp run` in the plugin directory to start debugging. Then in LangBot: 1. Go to the "Knowledge Base" page 2. Add an external knowledge base 3. Select the knowledge retriever provided by your plugin and fill in the configuration ![](https://langbot.app/docs/images/zh/plugin/dev/components/knowledge_retriever_config.png) After saving, you can select this knowledge base in the LangBot pipeline. --- # Component: Page Source: https://langbot.app/docs/en/plugin/dev/components/page The Page component allows plugins to register custom visual pages in the LangBot WebUI sidebar. Pages run inside an iframe sandbox, communicate with the host via the Page SDK, and can call the plugin's backend API. ## Use Cases - **Admin panels**: Provide visual configuration and data management interfaces (e.g., FAQ management, analytics dashboards) - **Data displays**: Show runtime statistics, logs, charts, etc. - **Interactive tools**: Provide forms, editors, and other interactive interfaces ![](https://langbot.app/docs/images/zh/plugin/dev/components/plugin-page-demo.png) ## Adding a Page Component Run the following command in the plugin directory: ```bash lbp comp Page ``` After entering the page name, the CLI will generate page files under `components/pages/`: ```bash ├── components │ └── pages │ └── dashboard │ ├── dashboard.yaml # Page manifest │ ├── dashboard.py # Backend handler │ ├── index.html # Page entry point │ └── i18n # Translation files (optional) │ ├── en_US.json │ └── zh_Hans.json ``` The plugin's `manifest.yaml` will also be updated with the component discovery config: ```yaml spec: components: Page: fromDirs: - path: components/pages/ maxDepth: 2 ``` ## Manifest File: Page ```yaml apiVersion: v1 # Do not modify kind: Page # Do not modify metadata: name: dashboard # Unique page ID within the plugin label: en_US: Dashboard # Display name shown in the WebUI sidebar, supports i18n zh_Hans: 仪表盘 spec: path: index.html # HTML entry file, relative to this YAML file's directory execution: python: path: dashboard.py # Backend handler file attr: DashboardPage # Handler class name ``` ## Backend Handler The Page component's backend handler extends the `Page` base class and implements `handle_api` to process API requests from the frontend page. ```python from langbot_plugin.api.definition.components.page import Page, PageRequest, PageResponse class DashboardPage(Page): async def handle_api(self, request: PageRequest) -> PageResponse: # request.endpoint: API endpoint path, e.g. '/stats' # request.method: HTTP method (GET, POST, PUT, DELETE) # request.body: Request body (parsed JSON, or None) if request.endpoint == '/stats' and request.method == 'GET': # Read installation-scoped data from a Host storage API. entries = await self.load_entries_for_current_installation() return PageResponse.ok({'total': len(entries)}) return PageResponse.fail(f'Unknown endpoint: {request.endpoint}') ``` ### PageRequest Fields | Field | Type | Description | | ---------- | ----- | -------------------------------------------- | | `endpoint` | `str` | API endpoint path (e.g. `'/entries'`) | | `method` | `str` | HTTP method (`GET`, `POST`, `PUT`, `DELETE`) | | `body` | `Any` | Request body (parsed JSON, or `None`) | ### PageResponse Construction | Method | Description | | -------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------- | | `PageResponse.ok(data)` | Success response. `data` can be any JSON-serializable value | | `PageResponse.fail(error)` | Error response. `error` is a human-readable error string | ## Frontend Page Development Include the Page SDK in your HTML file to communicate with the plugin backend: ```html

``` ### Page SDK API | Method | Description | | --------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ | | `langbot.onReady(callback)` | Fires when SDK is ready. `callback` receives `ctx` with `theme` and `language` | | `langbot.api(endpoint, body?, method?)` | Calls the plugin's `handle_api`. Returns a Promise | | `langbot.t(key, fallback?)` | Gets a translated string | | `langbot.onThemeChange(callback)` | Fires when the theme changes | | `langbot.onLanguageChange(callback)` | Fires when the language changes | | `langbot.applyI18n()` | Manually re-apply `data-i18n` translations | ### Dark Mode The SDK automatically sets CSS custom properties on the page. Use them directly: | CSS Variable | Purpose | | ---------------------- | -------------------- | | `--langbot-bg` | Page background | | `--langbot-bg-card` | Card background | | `--langbot-text` | Primary text color | | `--langbot-text-muted` | Secondary text color | | `--langbot-border` | Border color | | `--langbot-accent` | Accent color | ### Page i18n Create an `i18n/` directory inside your page directory with JSON translation files: ``` pages/dashboard/ ├── index.html └── i18n/ ├── en_US.json └── zh_Hans.json ``` Translation files are flat JSON key-value pairs: ```json { "title": "Dashboard", "totalEntries": "Total Entries" } ``` Add the `data-i18n` attribute to HTML elements for automatic translation: ```html

``` ## Full Example: FAQ Manager Here is a complete Page component example that implements CRUD operations for FAQ entries. **Backend handler** (`components/pages/manager/manager.py`): ```python from langbot_plugin.api.definition.components.page import Page, PageRequest, PageResponse class ManagerPage(Page): async def handle_api(self, request: PageRequest) -> PageResponse: if request.endpoint == '/entries' and request.method == 'GET': entries = await self.load_entries_for_current_installation() return PageResponse.ok({'entries': entries}) if request.endpoint == '/entries' and request.method == 'POST': question = (request.body or {}).get('question', '').strip() answer = (request.body or {}).get('answer', '').strip() if not question or not answer: return PageResponse.fail('question and answer are required') entry = {'question': question, 'answer': answer} await self.save_entry_for_current_installation(entry) return PageResponse.ok({'entry': entry}) if request.endpoint == '/entries' and request.method == 'DELETE': entry_id = (request.body or {}).get('id', '') if await self.delete_entry_for_current_installation(entry_id): return PageResponse.ok({'deleted': entry_id}) return PageResponse.fail('entry not found') return PageResponse.fail(f'Unknown: {request.method} {request.endpoint}') ``` **Frontend page** (`components/pages/manager/index.html`) calls the backend via `langbot.api()`: ```javascript // Load entries var data = await langbot.api('/entries', null, 'GET'); // Add entry await langbot.api('/entries', { question: '...', answer: '...' }, 'POST'); // Delete entry await langbot.api('/entries', { id: '...' }, 'DELETE'); ``` Full example code is available at [FAQManager plugin](https://github.com/langbot-app/LangBot/tree/master/plugins/misc/FAQManager). ## One installation, many usages The same Page is called by **many page requests** (different requests and different Workspaces under one installation): - Never leave the previous request's data on the instance; take the endpoint, method, body and current installation information from the current `PageRequest` / binding every time. - Page data always lives in installation-scoped Host storage; `self.plugin` is a process-level shared object and must not hold tenant data. - Requests from different Workspaces share the same Page instance, so instance fields get interleaved; data that must survive requests belongs in Host storage. - If you keep per-installation process-local caches, release them in `on_installation_revoked(binding)`. See [Certified plugins and shared runtime](https://langbot.app/docs/en/plugin/certified-plugins.md) for the full specification. ## Notes - Pages run inside a `sandbox="allow-scripts allow-forms"` iframe and cannot open popups or navigate the parent page - Certified Pages must keep tenant data in installation-scoped Host storage. `self.plugin` is process-wide and must not hold tenant entries. The storage helper names above are illustrative; use the current SDK Host storage APIs available to your component. - Use `PageResponse.ok()` and `PageResponse.fail()` to construct responses for consistent formatting - The Page SDK ` ``` > warning: > > The embed code URL defaults to `localhost`.
