What it adds
Babelfish Flows ships as one installable plugin carrying two halves:- A flow engine. Deterministic flows registered as ordinary tools through the public contract — run a flow, step it, read its state, and abort it. Because they are tools, everything the platform already does to a tool applies: access control, backends, schedules, and tracing.
- A flow editor in the Studio. A front-end bundle the runtime serves to the Studio through its integrity-pinned import map, contributing a top-level Flows page and its nav entry.
How it plugs in
It is wired like any other plugin — a tools entry for the engine, astudio_plugins entry for the editor bundle, and the host routers the flow UI
rides:
manifest.yml
routers_modules order is load-bearing: tai42_skeleton.routers.plugins
must be last, because its SPA catch-all matches any path and routers register in
import order.
The bundle is committed inside the distribution, so installing it needs no
JavaScript toolchain on the server. The plugin adds no HTTP route of its own and
claims no backend — see Studio plugins for how the Studio
loads a plugin bundle and pins it.
