scitex-sdk

One implementation owner for SciTeX app contracts and UI components: scitex_sdk.app and scitex_sdk.ui. The SDK ships the Python code, Django templates/static assets, translations, and packaged @scitex/sdk frontend.

from scitex_sdk.app import get_files
from scitex_sdk.app.embed import ScitexAppConfig, run_standalone
from scitex_sdk import ui, get_frontend_package_dir

Leaf apps own their GUI under src/<leaf_pkg>/_django, use this SDK, and run standalone or as a plugin. Hub mounts apps generically and supplies authorized capabilities. See the app/UI contract and workflow skill.

# Install the GUI runtime for SDK 0.3.0 or newer.
pip install 'scitex-sdk[gui]>=0.3.0'
scitex-sdk app --help
scitex-sdk ui --help
scitex-sdk gui serve

Add the chat, mcp, cli or project extras for those capabilities, or install scitex-sdk[all]. The project and all extras require scitex-dev>=0.62.0. SDK publication verifies a normal built-wheel [all] installation and pip check against published dependencies before uploading. Contributor dependencies use pip install -e . --group dev.

Migration changes imports to scitex_sdk.app/ui and resource prefixes to scitex_sdk/app/ and scitex_sdk/ui/. Existing Django database labels, template block names and App/UI environment settings retain their identity. The predecessor App and UI repositories are public archives. Sequential SDK publication can still observe transitive predecessor packages and reports dependency retirement as incomplete. Consumer migration and strict published dependency retirement remain separate gates; see the release sequence.
