It provides serializable data models built on pydantic, allowing connectors and integration tools to construct, validate, and exchange protocol-compliant messages. The package is part of Airbyte's core infrastructure and is typically used as a dependency rather than directly in application code.\n\nThe package supports Python 3.9 and later, has low install friction (only pydantic as a runtime dependency), and is distributed as a wheel. While the project repository remains active, the package itself has not seen a release in over a year, suggesting it may be in a stable or maintenance-only state rather than under active feature development.","worth_installing":"Yes, if you are building or extending Airbyte connectors or integrations that require protocol-compliant message handling. The permissive MIT license, low dependency footprint, and stable API make it safe to adopt. However, the 413-day release gap warrants checking whether active development continues or whether you need to pin to version 0.18.0 for stability. Not necessary for users simply running Airbyte connectors."},"id":"airbyte-protocol-models-pdv2","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/airbyte-protocol-models-pdv2","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/airbyte-protocol-models-pdv2.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/airbyte-protocol-models-pdv2/"},"maintenance":{"status":"aging"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2025-06-27","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"airbyte-protocol-models-pdv2","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"Declares the Airbyte Protocol."},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":285963,"position":8051,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"0.18.0"}
