Agentomy Python SDK

Python client for the Agentomy AI Governance Platform -- wraps the Claw Bridge API for authorization, audit logging, emergency halt, status, and health checks.

Install

pip install agentomy-sdk

The platform itself is a hosted service and its repository is not public, so there is no source install for the SDK outside the platform checkout.

Quick Start

from agentomy import AgentomyClient

# An API key is required -- an Agentomy instance answers 401 without one. The client reads
# AGENTOMY_API_KEY from the environment, so keys stay out of your source:
#     export AGENTOMY_API_KEY=<key from your workspace dashboard>
client = AgentomyClient("http://localhost:3000")

# Or pass it explicitly, if you are loading it from a secret manager:
#     client = AgentomyClient("http://localhost:3000", api_key=my_secret_manager.get(...))

# Check if action is permitted
result = client.authorize("my-agent", "read", scope="customer-data")
print(result.tier)       # Analyst
print(result.audit_id)   # claw_1712345678_abc123

# Log an action
log = client.log("my-agent", "read", input_data="query", output_data="result")
print(log.chain_position)

# Emergency halt
halt = client.halt("my-agent", reason="Security incident")
print(halt.agents_affected)

# Fleet-wide halt (no agent_id)
client.halt(reason="Full fleet lockdown")

# Check status
status = client.status("my-agent")
print(status.quarantined)  # True after halt

# Bridge health
health = client.health()
print(health.bridge)  # "active"

Authentication

In production (when ENABLE_AUTH is set on the bridge), pass your API key:

# The client reads AGENTOMY_API_KEY from the environment when no api_key is passed.
client = AgentomyClient("https://your-instance.agentomy.com")

# Passing api_key="" asks for an explicitly UNAUTHENTICATED client, which ignores the
# environment. Only the public health surface answers without a key.

Error Handling

from agentomy import AuthorizationDenied, AgentQuarantined, ConnectionError, AgentomyError

try:
    client.authorize("my-agent", "delete")
except AuthorizationDenied as e:
    print(f"Denied: {e}")
except ConnectionError:
    print("Bridge unreachable")
except AgentomyError as e:
    print(f"API error: {e}")

Tier Permissions

Governed Execution

The SDK provides two helpers that combine authorize + execute + log into a single call:

# governed() -- pass a callable
result = client.governed(
    "my-agent",
    fn=lambda: my_agent.run_task(),
    action="read",
    scope="documents"
)
print(result["authorized"])   # True
print(result["result"])       # whatever my_agent.run_task() returned

# governance() -- context manager (Pythonic style)
with client.governance("my-agent", action="write", scope="reports") as auth:
    if auth.authorized:
        report = generate_report()
        # log is called automatically on context exit

Both helpers: authorize before execution, log the result after, and raise AuthorizationDenied if the agent is not permitted.

Running Tests

The SDK's tests run against a live Agentomy instance at localhost:3000 and live in the platform repository alongside the source, so they are not part of this distribution.
