@holokai/holo-sdk

SDK for the Holo platform. Provides base classes for building provider plugins and a client SDK for consuming the Holo API.

Installation

npm install @holokai/holo-sdk

Plugins also need the types package:

npm install @holokai/holo-types

Overview

The SDK provides:

• BasePlugin — lifecycle management (initialize, destroy, state machine)
• BaseProvider — provider request processing and auditing
• BaseAuditor — request/response audit record construction
• BaseTranslator — Holo universal format translation
• BaseWireAdapter — provider events to HTTP wire chunks
• Core utilities (ClassLogger, pickDefined, AsyncEventQueue, etc.)
• Notification factories and stores

Plugin Implementation

// plugin.ts
import {BasePlugin} from '@holokai/holo-sdk/plugin';
import type {IProviderPlugin, PluginContext} from '@holokai/holo-types/plugin';
import type {IProvider, IWireAdapter, ProviderCapabilities, WireAdapterParams} from '@holokai/holo-types/provider';
import type {RouteTree} from '@holokai/holo-types/routing';
import {RouteHandler} from '@holokai/holo-types/routing';
import {ProtocolCapability} from '@holokai/holo-types/entities';
import {manifest} from './manifest';
import {MyProvider} from './my.provider';
import {MyWireAdapter} from './my.wire.adapter';
import {MyTranslator} from './my.translator';

export const MyProtocols = {
    CHAT: 'my.chat',
    MODELS: 'my.models'
} as const;

export class MyProviderPlugin extends BasePlugin implements IProviderPlugin {
    manifest = manifest;
    translator = MyTranslator.instance();
    protocols = MyProtocols;
    defaultProtocol = MyProtocols.CHAT;

    async createProvider(id: string, name: string, config: any): Promise<IProvider> {
        return new MyProvider(this, config);
    }

    async createWireAdapter(params: WireAdapterParams): Promise<IWireAdapter> {
        return new MyWireAdapter(params.requestId, params.isStreaming);
    }

    getCapabilities(): ProviderCapabilities {
        return {streaming: true, tools: true, vision: false, functionCalling: true, maxTokens: 128000};
    }

    getRoutes(): RouteTree {
        return {
            v1: {
                chat: {
                    method: 'POST',
                    handler: RouteHandler.REQUEST,
                    protocol: {name: MyProtocols.CHAT, capability: ProtocolCapability.CHAT}
                },
                models: {
                    method: 'GET',
                    handler: RouteHandler.MODELS,
                    protocol: {name: MyProtocols.MODELS, capability: ProtocolCapability.MODELS}
                }
            }
        };
    }

    protected onInitialize(_context: PluginContext): Promise<void> {
        return Promise.resolve();
    }

    protected onDestroy(): Promise<void> {
        return Promise.resolve();
    }
}

Protocols and Capabilities

Each route declares a protocol (wire format identifier) and capability (what kind of request it handles):

| Capability | Description | |-------------------------------|-----------------------------| | ProtocolCapability.CHAT | Conversational LLM requests | | ProtocolCapability.GENERATE | Text generation (non-chat) | | ProtocolCapability.EMBED | Embedding generation | | ProtocolCapability.MODELS | Model listing |

Protocols are registered in the database at startup. Each protocol is tied to a specific plugin version.

Auditor Implementation

The auditor transforms worker requests/responses into ProviderRequest/ProviderResponse audit records:

import {BaseAuditor} from '@holokai/holo-sdk/provider';
import type {HoloWorkerRequest} from '@holokai/holo-types/worker';
import type {ProviderRequest} from '@holokai/holo-types/entities';

export class MyAuditor extends BaseAuditor {
    readonly provider = 'my-provider';

    protected toHoloRequest(workerRequest: HoloWorkerRequest, req: Omit<ProviderRequest, 'id'>): void {
        req.access_model = workerRequest.payload.model;
        req.metadata.user_prompt = workerRequest.payload.messages?.at(-1)?.content;
    }

    protected mapProviderPayload(workerRequest: HoloWorkerRequest, req: Omit<ProviderRequest, 'id'>): void {
        const {temperature, max_tokens} = workerRequest.payload;
        req.metadata.options = {temperature, max_tokens};
    }

    protected async createProviderEnvelope(payload: any) {
        return {access_model: payload.model || 'unknown'};
    }
}

Audit records use:

• Real columns for queryable fields: access_model, application_id, provider_id, protocol_id, user_id, client_identifier, thread_id, token counts, timing, cost
• metadata JSONB for extensible data: user_prompt, system_prompt, options, raw_request, headers, response_raw, usage_raw, etc.

Manifest

// manifest.ts
import type {PluginManifest} from '@holokai/holo-types/plugin';
import {PluginType} from '@holokai/holo-types/plugin';

export const manifest: PluginManifest = {
    name: '@holokai/holo-provider-my',
    version: '1.0.0',
    pluginType: PluginType.PROVIDER,
    family: 'MY_PROVIDER',
    description: 'My custom provider plugin'
};

Default Export

// index.ts
import {MyProviderPlugin} from './plugin';

export default new MyProviderPlugin();

Client SDK

The @holokai/holo-sdk/client subpath provides a typed client for consuming the Holo API:

import {HoloClient} from '@holokai/holo-sdk/client';

const client = new HoloClient({baseUrl: 'http://localhost:3000', token: 'your-token'});

// Simple chat
const response = await client.chat.send({
    model: 'gpt-4o',
    messages: [{role: 'user', content: 'Hello'}],
});

// Fluent builder
const response = await client.chat.builder()
    .model('gpt-4o')
    .system('You are helpful.')
    .user('Hello')
    .temperature(0.7)
    .send();

// Streaming
const stream = await client.chat.builder()
    .model('gpt-4o')
    .user('Write a poem')
    .stream();

for await (const event of stream) {
    process.stdout.write(event.text ?? '');
}

// Tool calling
import {HoloToolRunner} from '@holokai/holo-sdk/client';

const runner = new HoloToolRunner(client, tools, handlers);
const result = await runner.run({model: 'gpt-4o', messages});

See docs/README.md for the full client SDK reference.
