  title: Jupyter Kernel Messaging Protocol
  version: 5.4.0
  description: >-
    The Jupyter Kernel Messaging Protocol defines the WebSocket-based
    communication between Jupyter clients (notebooks, consoles) and
    computational kernels. Messages are exchanged over WebSocket
    channels for shell requests/replies, IOPub broadcasts, stdin
    input requests, and control channel operations. This protocol
    is documented in the Jupyter Client messaging specification.
