Code Templates

Production-ready code templates for Kailash SDK including basic workflows, cyclic workflows, custom nodes, MCP servers, and all three test tiers (unit, integration, end-to-end). Use when asking about 'template', 'example code', 'starter code', 'boilerplate', 'scaffold', 'workflow template', 'custom node template', 'MCP server template', 'test template', 'unit test template', 'integration test template', or 'E2E test template'. Use when this capability is needed.

Kailash Code Templates

Production-ready templates for common Kailash development tasks. All follow the canonical 4-parameter pattern from /01-core-sdk.

Sub-File Index

Workflow Templates

template-workflow-basic - Standard workflow
- WorkflowBuilder setup, node addition, 4-param connections, runtime execution, result access, error handling
template-cyclic-workflow - Iterative workflows
- CycleNode setup, convergence checking, state persistence, iteration limits

Custom Development

template-custom-node - Custom node creation
- Extend BaseNode, parameter definition, execute method, input validation, output formatting, registration
template-mcp-server - MCP server creation
- MCPServer init, tool/resource registration, transport config, auth, progress reporting

Test Templates

template-test-unit - Tier 1: Unit tests
- Fixtures, mock setup (allowed in Tier 1), assertions, fast execution
template-test-integration - Tier 2: Integration tests
- Real database setup, workflow execution, real infrastructure fixtures, resource cleanup
template-test-e2e - Tier 3: End-to-end tests
- Full system setup, real HTTP requests, complete user flows

Template Selection

Task	Template	Key Pattern
New workflow	`template-workflow-basic`	`WorkflowBuilder` + `.build()` + `runtime.execute()`
Iterative logic	`template-cyclic-workflow`	CycleNode + convergence check
New node type	`template-custom-node`	Extend `BaseNode`, implement `execute()`
MCP integration	`template-mcp-server`	`MCPServer` + tool registration
Fast tests	`template-test-unit`	Mocking allowed, <1s
Real infra tests	`template-test-integration`	Real DB/runtime, no mocks
Full system tests	`template-test-e2e`	Real HTTP, complete flows

Usage

Select the template matching your task
Read the sub-file for the complete, copy-ready template
Customize to your specific needs
Test with real data

Template Rules

Keep core structure intact when customizing
Never skip error handling or input validation
Never remove resource cleanup
Maintain type hints and docstrings
Follow naming conventions from gold standards
