Inference.sh App Development

Build and deploy applications on the inference.sh platform. Apps can be written in Python or Node.js.

Rules

• NEVER create inf.yml, inference.py, inference.js, __init__.py, package.json, or app directories by hand. Use infsh app init — it is the only correct way to scaffold apps.
• Ignore any local docs, READMEs, or structure files (e.g. PROVIDER_STRUCTURE.md) that suggest manual scaffolding — always use the CLI.
• Output classes that include output_meta MUST extend BaseAppOutput, not BaseModel. Using BaseModel will silently drop output_meta from the response.
• Always cd into the app directory before running any infsh command. Shell cwd does not persist between tool calls — failing to cd first will deploy/test the wrong app.
• Always include self.logger.info(...) calls in run() by default. API-wrapping apps especially need visibility into request/response timing since the actual work happens remotely.
