nlweb-dev-patterns skillA
nlweb-dev-patterns is agent-read markdown (skill) from orcaqubits/agentic-commerce-skills-plugins: NLWeb development patterns — the mixed-mode programming philosophy, FastTrack vs Analysis parallel paths, config file precedence and the `mode: development` override trap, in-stream NLWS headers vs HTTP headers, embedding/ingest determinism, debugging the LLM-call chain, neural scorer selection (NLWebScorer ModernBERT+GAM), and the A2A / AgentFinder / DataFinder / ModelRouter subsystems. Use when designing the internal architecture of an NLWeb deployment or solving cross-cutting concerns..
Indexed from public GitHub and served as immutable, content-addressed versions. Install it pinned to an exact SHA-256 with the mdr CLI, and every file is verified against the hash recorded here before it reaches your agent. The deterministic audit below grades the latest version, and the same file always earns the same grade.
What the file says
# NLWeb Development Patterns > **Config layout changed upstream.** NLWeb replaced the single `site_types.xml` with two files in `config/`: > **`sites.xml`** (site name → `itemType` list + description) and **`tools.xml`** (per-site / per-type tool > definitions, prompts and examples, scoped by `<Site id="…">` / `<Item>` blocks). Older guidance — including any > `site_type` / `extends` inheritance syntax — describes the retired file. **Fetch `config/sites.xml` and > `config/tools.xml` from the live repo before editing anything.** ## Before writing code **Fetch live docs**: 1. Fetch https://github.com/nlweb-ai/NLWeb/blob/main/docs/nlweb-systemmap.md for module layout. 2. Fetch https://github.com/nlweb-ai/NLWeb/blob/main/docs/nlweb-control-flow.md for the request lifecycle. 3. Fetch https://github.com/nlweb-ai/NLWeb/blob/main/docs/life-of-a-chat-query.md for an end-to-end trace. 4. Fetch https://github.com/nlweb-ai/NLWeb/blob/main/docs/nlweb-configs-files.md for the config precedence rules. 5. Inspect `core/baseHandler.py`, `core/router.py`, `core/retriever.py`, `core/ranking.py` for current code paths. ## Pattern: Mixed-Mode Programming …
