Building cubes

A cube is a set of markdown pages, one of them the entry page. A cube is what you hand to an agent: it is served over HTTP as navigable markdown.

Create a cube

New cube, name it. The cube starts with an entry page (shown as Entry in the sidebar); its address is /c/:cube, copyable from the cube's Connect button.

Add pages

New page from the cube or the sidebar. A page's name gives it a slug; the page is served at /c/:cube/:page.

The editor has the page body on the left and two panels on the right:

• Variables — named JavaScript declarations the body can use, evaluated once per render. Good for filtering or aggregating once and referencing the result in several places.
• Resources — your resources, their tables, and each field with its type and a sample value from the data. Insert places a {{ resources["…"]["…"] }} reference at the cursor; clicking a field inserts the field name.

Preview renders the page with live data, raw or formatted, without saving.

Link the pages

A markdown link to a page's slug — [Orders](orders) — resolves to the full page URL when served. Give the entry page a list of links and an agent can walk the whole cube from one URL. The pages binding makes this a one-liner:

{{ pages.map(p => `- [${p.name}](${p.url})`).join("\n") }}
