The protocol defines types and methods used in the Keybase API.

The protocol files are defined using Avro IDL in avdl.

To install dependencies for scripts: make config.

To build stubs, run make.

Note that if you delete any AVDL files, you'll need to run make clean or else the old generated results will stick around. Likewise if you add and new AVDL files, there's a big list in the Makefile that you'll need to manually insert your new file into.
