Plugins
Understand plugin-related behavior that exists today.
Nodal does not currently expose a public plugin marketplace or custom plugin installation API.
What is implemented today is model capability awareness and gateway support for OpenAI-compatible tool calling. In practice, app developers can build their own integrations by:
- Defining tools in
/v1/chat/completionsrequests. - Executing tool calls in their own application code.
- Sending tool results back as follow-up chat messages.
- Selecting models that advertise tool support in the model catalog.
Current Boundaries
- Nodal forwards tool definitions to supported providers.
- Nodal bills and logs the model request.
- Your application owns external side effects, secrets, OAuth, data access, retries, and tool result validation.
Public Docs Language
Because there is no public plugin runtime yet, these docs use "tools" for implemented gateway behavior and reserve "plugins" for this boundary explanation.
