The wireKernelInterface object is a JavaScript implementation of the Meta Kernel protocol, defining properties and methods for handling various requests and replies, such as execution, inspection, and communication. The object is exported as a module using module.exports, allowing other JavaScript files to import and use it.

Code Breakdown

This JavaScript code defines an object wireKernelInterface that implements the interface for a kernel in the Meta Kernel protocol.

Properties and Methods

The object has two main sections:

  1. Required Requests:

  2. Optional Requests:

  3. Reply Methods:

  4. Extra Protocol Methods:

Export

The wireKernelInterface object is exported as a module using module.exports. This allows other JavaScript files to import and use this object.
