szpont
Install-and-run for Diplomat (Szpont Yon) - the menu-bar / system-tray applet that reviews your pull requests, fixes your own, resolves conflicts, and keeps one device per agent.
pip install szpont && szpont # or: npx szpont
That is the whole install. macOS and Linux.
What it actually does
Diplomat is built out of the checkout it runs from - a SwiftUI bundle on macOS, a
PySide6 package plus the diplomat-core Swift binary on Linux - and it keeps
being that checkout: the Update button, the daily 06:00 timer and the commit the
panel reports are all git operations on it. A wheel holding a copy would be a
second Diplomat that no update could reach.
So this distribution is the steps in between, and every one of them runs a script that is already in the repository:
| macOS | Linux | |
|---|---|---|
| get it | git clone into ~/.diplomat/checkout, or fast-forward it |
same |
| build it | install/build-app.sh → Diplomat.app |
install/build-core.sh when the prompt binary is missing |
| set it up | - | a venv at ~/.diplomat/venv with requirements.txt in it |
| start it | open Diplomat.app |
the package's own ./diplomat, on the venv's interpreter |
Nothing is rebuilt that does not need to be: a venv is left alone until
requirements.txt changes, and the Swift prompt binary is only built when the
applet would not find one. git is needed to fetch Diplomat, and a Swift
toolchain to build it - if one is missing you are told which and where to get it,
before anything is downloaded.
szpont --plan # print what would be run, as JSON, and do none of it
szpont --no-update # launch the checkout as it stands
szpont -- --dump # everything after -- goes to the applet
DIPLOMAT_SELF_REPO points at a checkout of your own - the same variable the
running applet reads, and one this launcher never updates, because a working copy
may have work in it. DIPLOMAT_REPO_URL clones from a fork.
The same name on both indexes
npx szpont runs the same launcher, and that is all either name installs: one
file of standard library on each side, no dependency on either index. What keeps
them one command is packages/szpont-npm/test/parity-with-python.mjs - every
machine shape in test/scenarios.mjs goes through both planners, and the two
answers have to be identical.
The protocol Diplomat's machines find each other over is
SzpontNet,
published separately as szpontnet; nothing here imports it, and installing this
does not install it.
Its own tests
pip install pytest
pytest packages/szpont/tests -q
Note on the name
szpont names three things, and they share the namespace rather than compete for
it: this command, its npm twin, and the
conformance tester,
run as python -m szpont from its own directory.
Only the tester is precarious. It is never installed, and the working directory
precedes site-packages on sys.path, so it wins from where it is run - but
publishing it under this name is what the three could not share. The console
script cannot collide with it at all: an entry point is a file in bin/, not a
name on the import path, and the module this one lives in is szpont_launcher.
