pipeline
| Served by | plugin-pipeline |
| Placement | runtime (out-of-process over gRPC) |
pipeline is a command word served by the plugin-pipeline plugin candy. This plugin is not listed in charly/charly.yml’s compiled_plugins:. It is not part of the shipped binary: charly builds and loads it out-of-process over gRPC when a plan references one of its words (the coexist path).
About the plugin that serves it
Section titled “About the plugin that serves it”The workflow front-end — domain-neutral: resolve + validate a declared
kind:pipeline entity (spec.Pipeline, steps:), lower it with
sdk/workflowkit to the (workflow.lobster, charly.yml) pair, and dispatch
the pair to the workflow provider class as workflow-run. Also the bare
agent runtime (the standalone ‘charly pipeline agent’), deterministic
probe verbs, template/frontmatter rendering, and skills by @github candy
refs. Every stage kind is ALSO a reachable verb
(verb:agent/probe/ade/generate/emit/media/gate), so a stage body can be
driven as a <word>: <input> step from any plan. Execution/control flow
belongs to the workflow ENGINE, not this plugin.
charly --help prints the command tree, including where pipeline is invoked and under which parent.
