# iii-hq/iii
**URL:** https://github.com/iii-hq/iii
**One-liner:** iii is a Rust-powered engine that reduces multi-service integration to three primitives (Workers, Triggers, Functions), with SDKs for Node.js, Python, and Rust, enabling effortless composition and real-time observability.
**Relevance to apollo:** high (80/100)
**Integration:** cleanroom-rebuild
## Summary
Counter-UAS interceptor brain (Python).
## Why it's useful here
Apollo's seek-and-engage logic can be an iii Worker, reacting to cues from apollo-listen (also a Worker) via iii triggers, replacing current NATS dependency with native iii primitives.
## Suggested use
Package engagement logic as iii functions; trigger by cue events from apollo-listen worker.
## Novelty / why now
High novelty: offers a universal service mesh abstraction that works across languages and runtimes, with built-in observability, agent skills, and a single mental model for all service interactions.
## Risks
ELv2 license; hard real-time constraints may conflict with iii's async scheduling – verify latency.

### Reviewer safety notes
Low safety risk per scan; postinstall hooks absent, no suspicious patterns. However, engine uses Elastic License 2.0 (restrictive), SDKs are Apache-2.0. New project (495d) with rapid star growth (15.6k) – typical of hype cycles; verify long-term maintenance.
