how it works

Syntax, diagnostics and the DAG view ride the served contract: files validate against the same workflow.schema.json this site serves, via the yaml-language-server line the extension writes for you. Local traces, your models — the extension never phones home.

1From the CLI code --install-extension supernovae.nika-lang
2Cursor, Windsurf and VSCodium install the same id from Open VSX.
