### Overview
Major restructuring from monolithic `arcade-ai` package to modular
library architecture with standardized uv-based dependency management.

### New Package Structure
- **`arcade-tdk`** - Lightweight toolkit development kit (core
decorators, auth)
- **`arcade-core`** - Core execution engine and catalog functionality
- **`arcade-serve`** - FastAPI/MCP server components
- **`arcade-ai`** - Meta package that includes CLI functionality.
Optionally include evals via the `evals` extra. Optionally include all
packages via the `all` extra.
### Key Benefits
- **Lighter Dependencies**: Toolkits now depend only on `arcade-tdk` (~2
deps) vs full `arcade-ai` (~30+ deps)
- **Faster Builds**: uv provides 10-100x faster dependency resolution
and installation
- **Better Modularity**: Clear separation of concerns, consumers import
only what they need
- **Standard Tooling**: Eliminates custom poetry scripts, uses standard
Python packaging
### Migration Impact
- All 20 toolkits converted from poetry → uv with `arcade-tdk`
dependencies plus `arcade-ai[evals]` and `arcade-serve` dev
dependencies. When developing locally, devs should install toolkits via
`make install-local`.
- Modern Python 3.10+ type hints throughout
- Standardized build system with hatchling backend
- Enhanced Makefile with robust toolkit management commands
- Removed `arcade dev` CLI command
- Reduce the number of files created by `arcade new` and add an option
to not generate a tests and evals folder.
This foundation enables faster development cycles and cleaner dependency
chains for the growing toolkit ecosystem.
### Todo After this PR is merged
- [ ] Post-merge workflow(s) (release & publish containers, etc)
- [ ] Release order plan. @EricGustin suggests releasing in the
following order:
1. `arcade-core` version 0.1.0
2. `arcade-serve` version 0.1.0 and `arcade-tdk` version 0.1.0
3. `arcade-ai` version 2.0.0
4. Patch release for all toolkits (all changes in toolkits are internal
refactors)
- [ ] [Update docs](https://github.com/ArcadeAI/docs/pull/318)

- **New Class Structure**: Introduced `ToolManager` and
`AsyncToolManager` classes (`ArcadeToolManager` is deprecated)
- **Async Support**: Full async implementation for modern LangChain
applications
- **Better Tool Management**: New methods for adding individual tools
and toolkits
- **CI/CD**: for langchain_arcade
## Upgrade Changes
```python
# Old pattern
manager = ArcadeToolManager(api_key="...")
tools = manager.get_tools(toolkits=["Google"])
# New pattern
manager = ToolManager(api_key="...")
manager.init_tools(toolkits=["Google"])
tools = manager.to_langchain()
```
Now supports underscores vs dots in tool names for better model
compatibility.
# PR Description
The `github.event.pull_request.author_association` in the "Prevent
Unauthorized Version Updates" workflow was returning inconsistent
results by saying that MEMBERS were CONTRIBUTORS. This PR moves away
from `author_association` in favor of a whitelist text file containing
the GitHub usernames of authorized toolkit release managers.
A toolkit release manager has the following special permissions:
* Can change the version of an existing toolkit
* Can delete an existing toolkit
* Can rename an existing toolkit
This PR enhances the Docker build and deployment process for the Arcade
Worker by:
- **Modularizing Docker Builds:**
- Introduces a new `INSTALL_TOOLKITS` build argument in the `Dockerfile`
to conditionally include toolkits. this enables the creation of a
`arcadeai/worker-base` which can be used to build custom containers in a
multi-stage build. an example of this is included in the example dir.
- Adds `docker-base` Makefile target to build a lightweight base image
without toolkits.
- **Publishing to GitHub Container Registry (GHCR):**
- Adds Makefile targets `publish-ghcr` and `gh-login` for pushing images
to GHCR.
- Supports publishing both base and full images with toolkits to GHCR.
- **Docker Compose:**
- Add Docker compose file and setup
- Renames the `actor` service to `worker`
- Adds an `nginx` service in `docker-compose.yml` to proxy requests to
the Arcade Engine.
- Introduces an `nginx.conf` file for the Nginx service.
- **Streamlining Toolkit Installation:**
- Moves toolkit installation from the `start.sh` script to the Docker
build process.
- Creates a `toolkits.txt` file to manage toolkit dependencies which can
be edited easily when we want to add a new toolkit. Developers can also
use this approach as shown in the example.
- **Improving Configuration Files:**
- Updates `docker.engine.yaml` and `env.example` to align with the new
setup.
TODO:
- CI/CD needs to be adjusted so that images are pushed to ghcr on
release.
- AWS resources need to be renamed actor -> worker @EricGustin
This can go in after the above two items are resolved.

# PR Description
Add checks for unauthorized actions performed on toolkits. A PR cannot
be merged if it contains an unauthorized toolkit action.
An unauthorized toolkit action is defined as:
1. The author of the PR is not an OWNER or a MEMBER of the ArcadeAI
organization
2. AND one of the following applies:
- A toolkit's version is altered (i.e., the version in
`toolkits/*/pyproject.toml`
- A toolkit is deleted
- A toolkit's PyPI package name is renamed (i.e., the name in
`toolkits/*/pyproject.toml`
# PR Description
Changes to a toolkit without changes to the toolkit's version fail the
'Publish Toolkit' workflow with `HTTP Error 400: File already exists
('arcade_zoom-0.1.7.tar.gz', with blake2_256 hash
'02183cda607f06616e7edb17e3d22bc11d1d83b074b3e44066b78ec72602fb37'). See
https://pypi.org/help/#file-name-reuse for more information.`, for
example.
This PR adds the `--skip-existing` flag to `poetry publish` to avoid
attempting to publish an existing version. Skips slack notification if
publish is skipped.
The `grep`'d string comes from
https://github.com/python-poetry/poetry/blob/main/src/poetry/publishing/uploader.py#L246-L249
# PR Description
Poetry released v2 with many breaking changes a couple days ago. The
`install-poetry` action that our workflows use default to that v2
version, so many of our workflows are failing. This PR forces that
action to use poetry version 1.8.5 and also uses 1.8.5 for toolkits
A ticket to migrate to 2.0.0 has been filed for future work
# PR Description
* Adds/updates the following files to all toolkits:
- `.pre-commit-config.yaml`
- `.ruff.toml`
- `LICENSE`
- `Makefile`
- `pyproject.toml`
* Lint all toolkits such that they pass `make check` and `make test` (a
total doozy). This includes adding some unit tests and evals.
* Github workflow for testing toolkits before merge into main (courtesy
of @sdreyer)
* Added a QOL improvement for tool developers for when they need to get
the context's auth token.
* Minor updates to `arcade new` template.
Two new commands to the Arcade CLI: `arcade run` and `arcade chat`.
These commands enhance the usability of the Arcade CLI by integrating
language model capabilities for running tools and engaging in chat
sessions. Users can now leverage LLMs directly from the command line
Start of the CI/CD workflow for the python library and actor.
Covered:
- multiple python versions with Tox (3.10+) and pytest
- Docs eventually with mkdocs (commented out for now)
- Linting and formatting with Ruff and prettier
- Codecov
- include the mypy checks when the mypy errors are resolved.
