## Platform specification (canonical limits)

Source of truth: https://inquir.org/platform-spec

- Function timeout (default): **5000 ms** — configurable per function in the editor.
- Function memory (default): **256 MB** — configurable per function in the editor.
- Isolation: **container per function** — dependency isolation by function image.
- Hot containers: **supported** — lower latency on repeat traffic; first invoke may still be cold.
- Gateway: one API gateway with route-based dispatch (method, path pattern, auth mode).
- Pipelines: scheduled jobs, async workflows, and multi-step automation with execution history.

## Supported runtimes

- Node.js 22
- Python 3.12
- Go 1.22

## Core capabilities

- API gateway routes for HTTP and webhook workloads.
- Pipelines for cron, async jobs, and multi-step workflows.
- Observability with logs, traces, and execution history.
- Per-function configuration and environment variables.
- Hot container support for lower latency on repeat traffic.
- Layers for shared Node, Python, and Go dependencies.
- Template Marketplace for one-click provisioning of functions, routes, and pipelines.
