agent-alerts 0.1.1

Structured alert routing to humans and AI agents

agent-alerts

Structured alert routing to humans and AI agents.

Install

pip install agent-alerts
pip install "agent-alerts[mcp]"
pip install "agent-alerts[agent]"

Python imports stay under alerts.

Quick Start

Send a simple alert directly to Telegram:

from alerts import send

send("Screen complete: 4 names passed", channel="telegram")

That reads TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN and TELEGRAM_CHAT_ID from your environment unless you pass token= and chat_id= explicitly.

Use AlertRouter for structured routing, thresholds, quiet hours, and agent follow-up:

from alerts import Alert, AlertCategory, AlertLevel, AlertRouter

router = AlertRouter(config_path="alerting.yaml")

result = router.send(
    Alert(
        title="Estimate revisions turning negative",
        body="NVDA revisions rolled over after guidance.",
        level=AlertLevel.HIGH,
        category=AlertCategory.SIGNAL,
        source="portfolio-system",
        source_type="estimate_revisions",
        metadata={"passed_count": 1},
    )
)

print(result.delivered_channels)
print(result.agent_dispatched)

Channels

Channel	Purpose	Required config
