archastro-sdk 0.2.0

Python SDK for the ArchAstro Platform API

ArchAstro Python SDK

Python SDK for the ArchAstro Platform API and ArchAgents runtime APIs.

uv add archastro-sdk
# or
pip install archastro-sdk

The clients default to the production API gateway, https://platform.archastro.ai. Set ARCHASTRO_PLATFORM_BASE_URL only when targeting local development, staging, or another non-production environment.

Getting Started

Choose the auth path that matches how your Python process should run.

ArchAgents Org Bot or Worker

Use this path for ArchAgents bots, background workers, cron jobs, ingestion jobs, and integrations that should act as an org-owned system user. Your Python process only needs a system-user access token:

export ARCHASTRO_ACCESS_TOKEN=sat_...

Create that token with archagent while logged in as an org admin. Replace [e-mail] with your ArchAgents login email. The setup is grouped as one shell block so GitHub's copy button copies the full sequence:

archagent auth login [e-mail]

export ARCHASTRO_ORG_ID="$(
  archagent describe me --json |
  jq -er '.session.org'
)"

export ARCHASTRO_SYSTEM_USER_ID="$(
  archagent --json create user \
    --system-user \
    --name "Python SDK Bot" \
    --org "$ARCHASTRO_ORG_ID" \
    --org-role member |
  jq -r '.id'
)"

export ARCHASTRO_ACCESS_TOKEN="$(
  archagent --json create usertoken \
    --user "$ARCHASTRO_SYSTEM_USER_ID" \
    --name "python-sdk-service" |
  jq -r '.token'
)"

Use the sync client for scripts and CLIs:

import os

from archastro.platform import PlatformClient

with PlatformClient(access_token=os.environ["ARCHASTRO_ACCESS_TOKEN"]) as client:
    user = client.users.me()

print(user["id"], user.get("is_system_user"))

Use the async client inside async services or workers:

import asyncio
import os

from archastro.platform import AsyncPlatformClient


async def main() -> None:
    async with AsyncPlatformClient(
        access_token=os.environ["ARCHASTRO_ACCESS_TOKEN"],
    ) as client:
        user = await client.users.me()

    print(user["id"], user.get("is_system_user"))


asyncio.run(main())

See examples/org_system_user_token for the complete system-user walkthrough.

Developer App Auth

Use this path when you already have a publishable API key and a user access token from a developer app login flow.

export ARCHASTRO_API_KEY=pk_...
export ARCHASTRO_ACCESS_TOKEN=sat_...

import os

from archastro.platform import PlatformClient

client = PlatformClient.with_token(
    os.environ["ARCHASTRO_API_KEY"],
    os.environ["ARCHASTRO_ACCESS_TOKEN"],
)

with client:
    teams = client.teams.list()

Async setup uses the same factory:

import asyncio
import os

from archastro.platform import AsyncPlatformClient


async def main() -> None:
    async with AsyncPlatformClient.with_token(
        os.environ["ARCHASTRO_API_KEY"],
        os.environ["ARCHASTRO_ACCESS_TOKEN"],
    ) as client:
        teams = await client.teams.list()
        print(teams)


asyncio.run(main())

Examples

• examples/org_system_user_token — run the SDK as an ArchAgents org-owned system user.
• examples/create_agent_cli — wrap the sync SDK in a small CLI that creates an agent.
• examples/thread_chat_tui — chat in an existing thread from a terminal UI using the async websocket helpers.

Packages

All public code lives under the single top-level archastro package:

• archastro.platform — typed REST + channel SDK generated from the canonical OpenAPI spec at ArchAstro/archastro-openapi. Pydantic models, async channel classes, auth helpers.
• archastro.phx_channel — the hand-written Phoenix Channels client the generated channel classes run on top of. WebSocket transport, join / reply / push / leave, heartbeat, reconnect, and a HarnessServiceClient for driving the @archastro/channel-harness service from Python tests.

Development

This repo contains:

• Python SDK (src/archastro/) installed via uv
• JS tooling (package.json) — the channel-harness subprocess that powers the channel contract tests, plus the Prism mock server that backs the REST contract tests. Installed via npm ci.

Setup

npm ci --ignore-scripts  # channel-harness + prism (for contract tests)
uv sync --locked --all-extras

Running tests

# Unit tests only (no external services needed)
uv run pytest tests/test_http_client.py src/archastro/phx_channel/tests/test_unit.py

# Example smoke/unit tests
uv run pytest tests/examples

# REST contract tests (spawns Prism mock server)
uv run pytest tests/contract

# REST + channel contract tests (also spawns channel-harness subprocess)
ARCHASTRO_RUN_CHANNEL_CONTRACT_TESTS=1 uv run pytest tests/contract

Regenerating the SDK

The typed SDK — src/archastro/platform/ and tests/contract/ — is regenerated from the canonical OpenAPI spec by @archastro/sdk-generator. Don't hand-edit files with the auto-generated by @archastro/sdk-generator header; they'll be overwritten.

./scripts/regenerate_sdk.sh

The script fetches the spec from ArchAstro/archastro-openapi@main and runs the generator locked in package-lock.json. Knobs:

• ARCHASTRO_OPENAPI_REF=some-branch ./scripts/regenerate_sdk.sh — pull the spec from a non-default ref (useful when a spec change is on a branch awaiting merge).

After regenerating, review the diff, run the full test suite, and commit.

Release

# bump version in pyproject.toml, then:
uv sync --locked --all-extras
uv build --no-build-isolation
uv publish
