Buko Developer Docs

Welcome to the Buko developer documentation.

Private Developer Preview: Bot integrations and public Bot API access are
not included in the current iOS App Store release. Kit development and
third-party Kit submission are also not publicly open. These references are
retained for internal testing, approved preview partners, and future reviewed
releases; production Bot endpoints currently return unavailable.

Buko is a private messenger. Developer APIs are intentionally narrow: Buko provides the messaging channel, identity, delivery, permissions, and quotas. Your agent or service provides the actual intelligence and business logic.

Available APIs

Bot API basehttps://ims.buko.app
Bot Gateway WebSocketwss://ims.buko.app/bot/ws

Bot API preview

The following shape is documentation only while the Bot release gate is closed.

export BUKO_BOT_TOKEN="bot_xxx"

curl -sS https://ims.buko.app/bot/getMe \
  -X POST \
  -H "Authorization: Bot $BUKO_BOT_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json"

Then use either Bot Gateway WebSocket for realtime updates or polling for simple deployments.

Kit development in one minute

A native Kit is a reviewed local Dart package under kits/. It implements the small KitModule contract, declares the platforms it has actually tested, and uses only host-provided capabilities through KitContext. The server catalog can narrow visibility or disable a Kit, but it cannot download code or enable a platform omitted by the compiled package.

Read the complete Kit Development guide before creating a module.
