# Journey: Functions Stage 3e of the guided journey. Implement and deploy each function in the plan. ## When to use - Dispatched by `journey` when `current_stage: functions`. - Directly via `/butterbase-skills:journey-functions`. - Skipped (annotated `(n/a)`) if the plan lists no functions. ## Preflight If `docs/butterbase/03-preflight.md` is missing, older than 24 hours, or `00-state.md` has `app_id: null`, invoke `butterbase-skills:journey-preflight` first. Wait for it to return successfully before proceeding. ## Inputs - `docs/butterbase/02-plan.md` — the Functions section. - `docs/butterbase/00-state.md` — for `app_id`. ## Procedure 0. **Refresh docs.** Call `butterbase_docs` with `topic: "functions"`. For trigger types and ctx shape, also WebFetch `https://docs.butterbase.ai/functions`. Skip if cache is fresh. 0.5. **Check built-in integrations first.** Before writing function code that calls an external SaaS for email / messaging / calendar / CRM / payments: - Email / Slack / etc. → invoke `butterbase-skills:integrations`. The function should call `manage_integrations` `execute_action` rather than installing a third-party SDK. - Payments → invoke `butterbase-skills:payments`.

How do I install it?

Where does this skill come from?
From butterbase-ai/butterbase-skills, a repository with 532 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
