Schemas (any notation - proto, JSON Schema) belong in the schemas repo regardless of how many languages currently consume them; that's what makes this 'the schemas repo'. Rust-only code (the hand-written structs in continuum-proxy's bambu_commands/) is a different category and stays where it was. Also restructured per readability feedback: - envelope.schema.json moved out of v1/ to the bambulab/ root - it's shared across protocol generations, not v1-specific, same principle already applied to the (now-removed) proto/bambulab/common.proto. - v1/ split into v1/request/ and v1/report/, one file per command in each, instead of *.request.schema.json / *.response.schema.json filename suffixes doing the same job less clearly. The two top-level dispatcher schemas (matching BambuRequest/BambuReport) stay at the v1/ root since they aren't themselves a single command's schema. Re-verified after restructuring, not just moved and assumed still correct: resolution now has to handle a real basename collision (get_version.schema.json exists in both request/ and report/) — switched the validation approach to register schemas by (their actual base URI) rather than by filename, which is what makes relative resolve correctly here. All three real examples plus the negative tests from the original version still pass.

bambulab/ JSON Schemas
Documentation/validation schemas for Bambu's raw MQTT wire format, mirroring
continuum-proxy's src/printer/bambu_commands/ — not used for codegen (the
Rust structs there are hand-written; see that module's doc comment for why),
but genuinely useful on their own: language-agnostic documentation of the
wire format, and usable to validate a captured MQTT payload without writing
any Rust to do it.
Layout
bambulab/
envelope.schema.json the base — sequence_id + command, shared by
every command in every generation, so it lives
here unversioned, not duplicated under v1/v2
v1/
request.schema.json BambuRequest dispatcher — {"info": ...} / {"pushing": ...}
report.schema.json BambuReport dispatcher
request/
get_version.schema.json
pushall.schema.json
report/
get_version.schema.json
pushall.schema.json
module_info.schema.json
v2/ add the same request/report split once V2's
wire format is known to differ from V1's
The "inheritance" pattern
Every command/response schema extends envelope.schema.json with
allOf + $ref:
{
"allOf": [
{ "$ref": "../../envelope.schema.json" },
{ "type": "object", "properties": { "command": { "const": "get_version" } } }
]
}
This is genuinely closer to real inheritance than anything else in this
project's schema stack (proto, Rust): the instance must satisfy the base
schema and the extension schema simultaneously, and — verified with
negative test cases, not just asserted — envelope.schema.json's
required: ["sequence_id", "command"] is actually enforced on every
schema that extends it, not just copy-pasted as documentation. Proto and
Rust only ever gave us composition (embed a field holding the base),
never something that reuses a named, referenced schema's constraints
automatically like this.
One gotcha if you add a new base-style schema: don't set
"additionalProperties": false on something meant to be allOf-extended.
allOf validates every sub-schema against the whole instance
independently — it doesn't merge object schemas — so a closed base schema
would reject every field the extending schema adds. Leave
additionalProperties unset (defaults to allowed) on anything used as a
base; enforce closedness only on the top-level dispatcher schemas
(v1/request.schema.json/v1/report.schema.json do this correctly —
check their additionalProperties: false).
Validating something
$ref resolution here relies on each schema's $id as the base URI for
its own relative refs (standard JSON Schema behavior) — register schemas
by $id, not by filename, or you'll hit collisions (get_version.schema.json
exists in both request/ and report/):
from referencing import Registry, Resource
from jsonschema import Draft202012Validator
import json, glob
resources = [
(json.load(open(p))["$id"], Resource.from_contents(json.load(open(p))))
for p in glob.glob("**/*.schema.json", recursive=True)
]
registry = Registry().with_resources(resources)
schema = json.load(open("v1/request.schema.json"))
Draft202012Validator(schema, registry=registry).validate(
{"info": {"sequence_id": "0", "command": "get_version"}}
)
