agenticdome-python-sdk 1.0.4

Official Python SDK for AgentGuard Intelligence Engine and Action Firewall.

AgenticDome Python SDK

Production-grade security guardrails, DLP, and multi-agent delegation enforcement for autonomous AI runtimes.

agenticdome-python-sdk is the official Python SDK and middleware package for AgenticDome. It provides deterministic security controls for agentic systems, including prompt guardrails, data loss prevention, tool authorization, incident reporting, and cryptographically validated multi-agent delegation workflows.

This package includes:

• The core Python SDK client
• CrewAI middleware hooks
• Manager-to-specialist delegation token handling
• Output DLP and sanitization workflows
• Optional Redis-backed distributed token storage
• Enterprise-ready fail-open / fail-closed runtime behavior

AgenticDome is designed for autonomous multi-agent frameworks such as CrewAI Open Source, CrewAI Enterprise, and custom Python orchestration systems.

Architecture & Responsibility Matrix

AgenticDome operates on a hybrid split-plane architecture.

Your local runtime executes agents, tools, and workflows. The AgenticDome central governance plane provides policy decisions, security analytics, tenant isolation, API-key authentication, and incident tracking.

Key Capabilities

Manager-to-Specialist Cryptographic Handoffs

AgenticDome transparently intercepts multi-agent delegation workflows and issues decision tokens that bind:

• Source manager agent
• Target specialist agent
• Tool name
• Tool arguments
• Session ID
• Tenant context
• Policy decision

This prevents unauthorized lateral privilege escalation between agents.

Inline Output Data Loss Prevention, DLP

The SDK can block or redact sensitive outputs before they are persisted, displayed, or passed back into the agent loop.

DLP targets include:

• PII
• Emails
• Phone numbers
• API keys
• Access tokens
• Cloud credentials
• Corporate secrets
• Compliance-sensitive records

Fail-Safe Runtime Behavior

The middleware supports configurable fail behavior:

• Fail closed: block execution if security checks fail or the AgenticDome API is unavailable.
• Fail open: allow execution for development or non-critical environments.

Production deployments should normally use fail-closed mode.

Local or Distributed Token Storage

Token storage can run in:

• Local in-memory mode for single-process runtimes
• Redis-backed mode for distributed multi-worker deployments

---

Getting Started and Onboarding

Before integrating the SDK, create an AgenticDome tenant and API key.

1. Visit the AgenticDome Management Console, AU Region.
2. Create or select your organization.
3. Copy your Tenant ID.
4. Generate an API Key from the access-control or API-key section.
5. Configure your runtime environment variables.

Quickstart: CrewAI Integration

To activate global security policies across CrewAI agents, import the CrewAI integration once at the application entry point, such as main.py, app.py, or your worker bootstrap file.

Importing the module automatically registers CrewAI lifecycle hooks.

import os

from crewai import Agent, Crew, Task

# Importing this module registers AgenticDome global before/after hooks.
import agenticdome_sdk.crewai  # noqa: F401


manager = Agent(
    role="Operations Manager",
    goal="Coordinate cross-functional tasks and delegate to specialist units",
    backstory="Corporate coordinator responsible for resource routing.",
    allow_delegation=True,
)

researcher = Agent(
    role="Research Specialist",
    goal="Extract analytical records from approved secure repositories",
    backstory="Analytical expert executing restricted tasks under policy control.",
)

task = Task(
    description="Analyze database outputs and pass a summary report to the operations manager.",
    expected_output="A structured analytical report.",
    agent=manager,
)

crew = Crew(
    agents=[manager, researcher],
    tasks=[task],
)

result = crew.kickoff()
print(result)

The AgenticDome middleware automatically hooks into:

before_llm_call
before_tool_call
after_tool_call

---

CrewAI Security Flow

1. Prompt Ingress Screening

Before the LLM is called, AgenticDome screens prompts for:

• Jailbreak attempts
• Prompt injection
• System prompt extraction
• Malicious instruction override
• Policy bypass attempts

2. Tool Authorization

Before a tool is executed, AgenticDome checks:

• Agent identity
• Tool name
• Tool arguments
• Session context
• Policy context
• Delegation chain

3. Manager Delegation Authorization

When a manager agent delegates work to a specialist, AgenticDome authorizes the handoff and returns a cryptographic decision token.

The middleware attaches this token to the downstream execution parameters.

4. Specialist Token Verification

When the specialist executes the delegated tool, the token is verified against the AgenticDome central plane.

This prevents unauthorized lateral movement between agents.

5. Output DLP

After tool execution, AgenticDome reviews output content for sensitive data and can redact or block it before it leaves the runtime boundary.

Python SDK Core Client Usage

If you need to call AgenticDome APIs manually, use the core SDK client.

from agenticdome_sdk.client import AgentGuardClient

client = AgentGuardClient(
    api_base="https://au.agenticdome.io",
    api_key="your-api-key",
    tenant_id="your-tenant-id",
    timeout=20,
)

client.report_incident(
    agent_id="agent-worker-04b",
    incident_type="unauthorized_escalation_attempt",
    severity="high",
    details="Agent attempted parameter mutation inside a prohibited database connector.",
    platform="crewai",
)

Redis Token Store for Production Clusters

For horizontally scaled CrewAI deployments, use Redis so manager handoff tokens are shared across workers.

Install Redis support:

pip install "agenticdome-python-sdk[redis]"

Configure:

export AGENTICDOME_REDIS_URL="redis://redis.example.internal:6379/0"
export AGENTICDOME_REDIS_KEY_PREFIX="AgenticDome:crewai:handoff"

In-memory token storage is suitable for local development and single-process workers. Redis is recommended for multi-worker or containerized production deployments.

---

Recommended Production Settings

export AGENTICDOME_API_BASE="https://au.agenticdome.io"
export AGENTICDOME_FAIL_CLOSED="true"
export AGENTICDOME_REDACT_PII="true"
export AGENTICDOME_REDACT_SECRETS="true"
export AGENTICDOME_BLOCK_ON_SENSITIVE_OUTPUT="false"
export AGENTICDOME_REQUIRE_TOKEN="true"
export AGENTICDOME_REPORT_INCIDENTS="true"

For development-only fail-open testing:

export AGENTICDOME_FAIL_CLOSED="false"

Do not use fail-open mode in production unless you have compensating controls.
