Alexander Petric daab561ec0 feat(typescript-client): add deleteS3File + optional workspace arg on S3 helpers (#9300)
* feat(typescript-client): add deleteS3File + optional workspace arg on S3 helpers

Customer-requested ergonomics for the TypeScript SDK:

- New `deleteS3File(s3object, workspace?)` wrapper around the existing
  `HelpersService.deleteS3File` (backend endpoint is already there). Saves
  callers from having to either hand-roll `denoS3LightClientSettings()` +
  AWS SDK calls, or wire up `HelpersService` directly.
- `denoS3LightClientSettings`, `loadS3File`, `loadS3FileStream`, `writeS3File`,
  and the new `deleteS3File` all gain an optional trailing `workspace?: string`
  parameter that falls back to the `WM_WORKSPACE` env var via `getWorkspace()`.
  Mirrors the calling convention customers already expect from helpers like
  `getVariable` / `runScript`.

`build.sh` and `build.jsr.sh` are updated to export `deleteS3File` from both
the NPM and JSR entry points.

* chore: regenerate system_prompts auto-generated for new S3 helpers

`python system_prompts/generate.py` after adding deleteS3File and the
optional workspace param to the existing S3 helpers, so the agent-facing
docs (CLI skills, TS SDK prompt, script skills) reflect the new signatures.

System Prompts

This directory contains the single source of truth for AI system prompts used by both the frontend copilot and CLI guidance.

Usage

Regenerating Prompts

When SDK methods or the OpenFlow schema change, run:

python system_prompts/generate.py

To also refresh the standalone skills in a Claude plugin checkout:

python system_prompts/generate.py --plugin-dir ~/windmill-claude-plugin

--plugin-dir accepts:

  • the windmill-claude-plugin repo root
  • a plugin root such as plugins/windmill
  • a direct skills/ directory

To regenerate the public docs repo (consumed by context7):

python system_prompts/generate.py --context7-dir ~/windmill-cli-docs

--context7-dir writes a fully-rendered snapshot (AGENTS.md, cli-commands.md, skills/<name>/SKILL.md, README.md, manifest.json with the Windmill version) with all template placeholders resolved — suitable for ingestion by docs aggregators. In CI this runs from .github/workflows/publish-cli-docs.yml on every release tag. The generator refuses to wipe the target directory unless it's empty or has a context7 marker (context7.json, manifest.json, or a windmill-cli-docs git remote), so a typo can't delete unrelated files.

This will:

  1. Parse TypeScript and Python SDK files to extract function signatures
  2. Parse the OpenFlow YAML schema
  3. Parse the CLI commands
  4. Assemble complete prompts from markdown files
  5. Generate TypeScript exports in auto-generated/
  6. Optionally refresh plugin-ready standalone SKILL.md files in the target directory

Scope

These system prompts contain ONLY:

  • How to write Windmill scripts (language syntax, conventions, SDK usage)
  • How to structure Windmill flows (OpenFlow schema, module types, data flow)
  • Resource type handling, S3 operations

They DO NOT contain:

  • Tool usage instructions (edit_code, set_flow_json, etc.)
  • IDE/editor specific commands
  • Testing tool invocations

Tool instructions are added separately by the frontend and CLI.

CLI-only workflow instructions live in base/flow-cli.md and are included in the generated write-flow skill for wmill init. They are intentionally excluded from the frontend flow chat prompt.

Integration

Frontend

Uses Vite path alias $system_prompts pointing to auto-generated/:

import { FLOW_GUIDANCE } from "$system_prompts/flow";
import { getLangContext } from "$system_prompts/languages";

CLI

Generates /cli/src/guidance/skills.gen.ts with embedded skill content for wmill init.

Editing Guidelines

  • Edit markdown files in base/, languages/
  • Never edit files in auto-generated/ directly
  • After editing, run generate.py to update exports
