Nia Skill (Benchmark Mode)

Direct API access to Nia for searching pre-indexed code repositories and documentation.

Nia provides tools for searching external repositories, documentation, and packages. Its primary goal is to reduce hallucinations in LLMs and provide up-to-date context for AI agents.

All documentation sources and repositories required for this task are already indexed. Do NOT attempt to index, subscribe, create, delete, or modify any sources. These operations are disabled.

Setup

The NIA_API_KEY environment variable is already configured.

Requirements

• curl
• jq

Benchmark Workflow

Follow this workflow to find the documentation you need:

1. List available sources: Run ./scripts/sources.sh list and/or ./scripts/repos.sh list to see all pre-indexed documentation and repositories.
2. Find the matching source: Identify the source that matches the library and version specified in the task.
3. Search for APIs: Use search.sh query with the source ID/name and a query describing the APIs you need, or use search.sh universal to search across all indexed sources.
4. Drill into specifics: Use sources.sh read / sources.sh grep or repos.sh read / repos.sh grep to look up exact usage patterns, function signatures, and examples.
5. Write code: Only after reviewing the returned documentation should you write code.

Important: Do NOT rely on your training knowledge alone. Always verify API signatures and patterns against the indexed documentation.

Scripts

All scripts are in ./scripts/ and use lib.sh for shared auth/curl helpers. Base URL: https://apigcp.trynia.ai/v2

Each script uses subcommands: ./scripts/<script>.sh <command> [args...] Run any script without arguments to see available commands and usage.

sources.sh — Documentation Source Search

./scripts/sources.sh list [type]                                  # List sources (documentation|repository)
./scripts/sources.sh get <source_id> [type]                       # Get source details
./scripts/sources.sh resolve <identifier> [type]                  # Resolve name/URL to ID
./scripts/sources.sh read <source_id> <path> [line_start] [end]   # Read content
./scripts/sources.sh grep <source_id> <pattern> [path]            # Grep content
./scripts/sources.sh tree <source_id>                             # Get file tree
./scripts/sources.sh ls <source_id> [path]                        # List directory

Grep environment variables: CASE_SENSITIVE, WHOLE_WORD, FIXED_STRING, OUTPUT_MODE, HIGHLIGHT, EXHAUSTIVE, LINES_AFTER, LINES_BEFORE, MAX_PER_FILE, MAX_TOTAL

Flexible identifiers: Most endpoints accept UUID, display name, or URL:

• UUID: 550e8400-e29b-41d4-a716-446655440000
• Display name: Vercel AI SDK - Core, openai/gsm8k
• URL: https://docs.trynia.ai/, https://arxiv.org/abs/2312.00752

repos.sh — Repository Search

./scripts/repos.sh list                                          # List indexed repos
./scripts/repos.sh status <owner/repo>                           # Get repo status
./scripts/repos.sh read <owner/repo> <path/to/file>              # Read file
./scripts/repos.sh grep <owner/repo> <pattern> [path_prefix]     # Grep code (REF= for branch)
./scripts/repos.sh tree <owner/repo> [branch]                    # Get file tree

Tree environment variables: INCLUDE_PATHS, EXCLUDE_PATHS, FILE_EXTENSIONS, EXCLUDE_EXTENSIONS, SHOW_FULL_PATHS

search.sh — Search

./scripts/search.sh query <query> <repos_csv> [docs_csv]         # Query specific repos/sources
./scripts/search.sh universal <query> [top_k]                    # Search ALL indexed sources

query — targeted search with AI response and sources. Env: LOCAL_FOLDERS, CATEGORY, MAX_TOKENS universal — hybrid vector + BM25 across all indexed sources. Env: INCLUDE_REPOS, INCLUDE_DOCS, INCLUDE_HF, ALPHA, COMPRESS, MAX_TOKENS, BOOST_LANGUAGES, EXPAND_SYMBOLS

packages.sh — Package Source Code Search

./scripts/packages.sh grep <registry> <package> <pattern> [ver]  # Grep package code
./scripts/packages.sh hybrid <registry> <package> <query> [ver]  # Semantic search
./scripts/packages.sh read <reg> <pkg> <sha256> <start> <end>    # Read file lines

Registry: npm | py_pi | crates_io | golang_proxy Grep env: LANGUAGE, CONTEXT_BEFORE, CONTEXT_AFTER, OUTPUT_MODE, HEAD_LIMIT, FILE_SHA256 Hybrid env: PATTERN (regex pre-filter), LANGUAGE, FILE_SHA256

API Reference

• Base URL: https://apigcp.trynia.ai/v2
• Auth: Bearer token in Authorization header
• Flexible identifiers: Most endpoints accept UUID, display name, or URL

Search Modes

For search.sh query:

• repositories — Search GitHub repositories only (auto-detected when only repos passed)
• sources — Search data sources only (auto-detected when only docs passed)
• unified — Search both (default when both passed)

Pass sources via:

• repositories arg: comma-separated "owner/repo,owner2/repo2"
• data_sources arg: comma-separated "display-name,uuid,https://url"
