summary: >-
  Striveworks ships one first-party API client SDK — the Chariot Python SDK (`chariot-client`), which
  also installs the `chariot` CLI — but distributes it from each customer's own Chariot deployment and
  from the bundled Armory registry rather than from public PyPI. The one Striveworks library published
  to a public registry is `valor-lite`, their open-source ML evaluation library. No first-party client
  library was found on npm, Maven Central, NuGet, pkg.go.dev, RubyGems, Packagist or crates.io.

  - language: python
    registry: chariot-instance

    notes: >-
      High-level programmatic access to Chariot services. Not published to public PyPI; the wheel is
      served by each Chariot deployment at /docs/static/ and pre-releases are pulled from the Armory,
      Chariot's bundled read-only Python/NPM registry. Pre-installed in Chariot Workspaces.

      Lightweight numpy-based library for fast evaluation of machine learning models, maintained by
      Striveworks. Project homepage on PyPI is https://www.striveworks.com, which is how first-party
      ownership was confirmed. Not a Chariot API client.

    The Striveworks GitHub organization (37 public repositories) is mostly forks of the CNCF/ML
    infrastructure Chariot is built on — kserve, knative-serving, MLServer, vllm, triton-server,
    calico, kubernetes — plus a handful of first-party projects.
