It provides a simple @tool decorator that automatically registers functions as Arcade tools, along with authentication helpers, type annotations, and parameter validation powered by Pydantic. The toolkit is designed to reduce boilerplate when creating tools that need to integrate with arcade-core components.\n\nThe package targets developers building Arcade tools, especially those requiring authentication or complex parameter validation. It depends on arcade-core for integration and pydantic for type safety. With low install friction and active maintenance, it's positioned as a foundational library for the Arcade tool ecosystem.","worth_installing":"Yes, if you're building tools for the Arcade ecosystem. The package is actively maintained, has no known vulnerabilities, uses a permissive MIT license, and requires only two lightweight dependencies. The @tool decorator and auth helpers reduce boilerplate significantly. Install only if you're committed to using Arcade; it's a specialized toolkit, not a general-purpose library."},"id":"arcade-tdk","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/arcade-tdk","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/arcade-tdk.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/arcade-tdk/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2026-08-10","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"arcade-tdk","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"Arcade TDK - Toolkit Development Kit for building Arcade tools"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":412953,"position":6844,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"3.10.1"}
