@stream-mdx/worker

Worker client utilities and hosted worker bundle used by StreamMDX.

Most consumers interact with this package indirectly via . You only need @stream-mdx/worker directly if you want explicit control over worker instantiation, MDX compilation parity helpers, or strict CSP setups.

Install

``bash
npm install @stream-mdx/worker
`

Hosted worker bundle (recommended)

For production, host the worker bundle from static assets (avoids blob: CSP requirements):

`bash
mkdir -p public/workers
cp node_modules/@stream-mdx/worker/dist/hosted/markdown-worker.js public/workers/markdown-worker.js
`

Then point StreamMDX at it:

`tsx

`

Node / CLI worker threads

To run the hosted worker bundle in Node (e.g., Ink TUIs), use:

`ts
import { createWorkerThread } from "@stream-mdx/worker/node";
`

This spawns a worker_threads worker and installs WebWorker-like shims so the hosted bundle can run under Node.

MDX compilation parity helper

If you compile MDX on the server (e.g. Next.js API route), use the same compilation logic as the worker:

`ts
import { compileMdxContent } from "@stream-mdx/worker/mdx-compile";
`

See docs/REACT_INTEGRATION_GUIDE.md for the full wiring and parity notes.
