lib
Autocode standard library Python bindings
Decision gist · record as of 2026-08-14
No, unless you are maintaining an existing Autocode/StdLib integration. The package is abandoned (last update 2021-12-14, no commits since 2022-09-18) and the underlying Autocode platform's current operational status is unclear. For new projects, evaluate whether Autocode/StdLib is still the right choice and whether the platform is actively maintained by its vendor.AI-flagged interpretation of the facts on this page — verify before relying
Before you install
- Requires an active Autocode/StdLib account and deployed services to call; the package itself is a client-only interface with no local functionality.
- Installation is frictionless with no runtime dependencies.
- However, the package is abandoned—last release was 2021-12-14 and no commits since 2022-09-18.

What it is and what it does
lib is a lightweight Python client for the Autocode standard library service platform. It acts as a zero-dependency SDK that lets you call remote microservices deployed on StdLib as if they were local Python functions, supporting both keyword and positional arguments, environment targeting (dev/release), and specific version pinning. The package handles the network communication and serialization transparently.
The package is designed for developers already using Autocode's serverless platform. It supports Python 2 and 3 and includes conveniences like file parameter passing. However, the package has been abandoned since late 2022, with no maintenance activity since then, making it suitable only for maintaining existing integrations rather than starting new projects.
Use it for
- Call Autocode-deployed microservices from Python without adding external HTTP dependencies.
- Invoke StdLib utility functions like reflect or status checks from within a Python application.
- Target specific service versions or environments (dev/release) when calling remote functions.
- Pass file data as parameters to remote services expecting buffer-type inputs.
