TypeScript
Section titled “TypeScript”Electron
Type-safe IPC between main and renderer processes in desktop apps. Demonstrates shared schemas across processes.
Cloudflare Workers
HTTP-based commands with remote schema generation. Shows HTTPChannel for edge computing.
AI Agent MCP
Expose commands as AI agent tools via tool calling. Easily integrate with Vercel AI SDK, OpenAI, Anthropic, and other frameworks.
Multi-Service
Two registries (root and worker) wired through an in-memory channel with a REPL on the root. Demonstrates the #[command_service] macro, cross-registry routing, and event fan-out.
