Abstract: The present disclosure relates generally to techniques for extending or customizing base skills (e.g., chatbots). According to certain embodiments, a bot extension infrastructure is provided to facilitate customization and/or extension of base skills, separately tracking different versions of the base skills and the extensions, applying an extension to different versions of a base skill, or applying different versions of extensions to a same base skill. The extensions to the base skills include JSON extensions indicating modifications to metadata of the base skills. A base skill (e.g., downloaded from a skills store) can be extended or customized by applying a JSON extension that describes the changes to be made to the metadata of the base skill.

Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for enabling seamless RESTful API generation and consumption through a single channel. Certain techniques are disclosed that allow for clients to both create an API and then immediately use or consume the API through a single channel of communication with a single component, such as a series of HTTP requests and/or responses sent between an application and an API Generation and Consumption (AGC) module.
