How does it handle message formatting?

It enforces BOLT-style definitions using TLV (Type-Length-Value) streams, ensuring that all message fields are extensible, parseable, and consistent with industry standards.

Does it support multilingual documentation?

Yes, it manages protocol documentation in English and automatically handles updates to the Japanese (JA) mirror files when applicable.

What transport mechanisms does it prefer?

The skill prioritizes Lightning-native transport methods such as Onion messages for non-payment data and high-range custom message types for direct peer-to-peer communication.

Is it compatible with the Go implementation of LCP?

Yes, the skill is specifically designed to keep terminology and logic consistent with the go-lcpd repository, including workflow steps to run tests and linting after spec changes.

Does this skill modify existing Lightning Network BOLTs?

No, LCP is an application-layer protocol. This skill is designed to leverage existing BOLT features like Onion messages and blinded paths without requiring changes to upstream Lightning behavior.

API Development

Manages and updates the Lightning Compute Protocol (LCP) specification following BOLT-style documentation standards for high-precision protocol engineering.

About

The LCP Protocol Specification Manager is a specialized skill designed for developers working on the Lightning Compute Protocol. It facilitates the creation and maintenance of technical documentation with the rigor found in Bitcoin Lightning (BOLT) specifications. The skill automates the formatting of TLV streams, message types, and state flows, ensuring that application-layer protocols for compute payments remain parseable and consistent. It bridges the gap between the documentation and the go-lcpd implementation, maintaining high standards for transport security, endpoint privacy, and payment binding.

Key Features

Generates BOLT-style protocol documentation with TLV stream definitions
Ensures consistency between protocol specs and the go-lcpd implementation
Applies Lightning Network primitives for transport and route blinding
Automates message type validation and state flow documentation
Manages synchronized English and Japanese protocol documentation
2 GitHub stars

Use Cases

Updating protocol state machines and TLV extension areas
Validating specification compliance during go-lcpd implementation cycles
Defining new message types for decentralized compute job payments
