catalyst-sdk

How It Works

1. Identify the platform — Node.js, Web (browser), Python, Java, Android, iOS, or Flutter.
2. Load the matching reference file — Each platform has its own SDK reference with initialization pattern and service methods.
3. Initialization first — Always show the SDK init call before any service-specific code.
4. Platform quirks — Web SDK uses browser auth (no service account); Node.js SDK uses server-side init; Mobile SDKs require the Catalyst project ID in the config.

Triggers

Use this skill for: "SDK", zcatalyst-sdk-node, zcatalyst-sdk, "Node.js SDK", "Web SDK", "Python SDK", "Java SDK", "Android SDK", "iOS SDK", "Flutter SDK", sdk-web, sdk-mobile, catalyst.initialize, catalystApp, "initialize SDK", or any platform-specific SDK question.
