Artifacta

The artifact store purpose-built for AI agents.

Artifacta gives your agents a single push / pull interface over durable, deduplicated, session-aware storage — so you can stop writing S3 glue code and /tmp hacks between pipeline steps.

• CLI — artifacta push, pull, ls, link, session, whoami
• Python SDK — from artifacta import Client
• REST API — every language; see docs.artifacta.io

Both the CLI binary and the Python SDK ship in this one package.

Install

pip install artifacta-cli

Requires Python 3.10+. After install you get the artifacta binary on your PATH and from artifacta import Client in Python.

Verify:

artifacta --version

Authenticate

Sign up at app.artifacta.io/signup. Copy your API key from the onboarding screen (keys start with ak_live_), then:

artifacta login
# Paste your ak_live_... key when prompted

Or set the environment variable — recommended for agents and CI, since every sub-process inherits it automatically:

export ARTIFACTA_API_KEY="ak_live_..."

Confirm:

artifacta whoami

Push → list → pull

# Upload a file, tagged with a session
artifacta push report.pdf --session demo-run

# List everything in that session
artifacta ls --session demo-run

# Pull it back later, from any machine
artifacta pull art_2xk9f7v3m1p0 -o ./downloads/

Same thing from Python

from artifacta import Client

client = Client()  # reads ARTIFACTA_API_KEY from env

artifact = client.push("report.pdf", session_id="demo-run")
print(artifact.id)  # art_2xk9f7v3m1p0

result = client.list(session_id="demo-run")
for a in result.artifacts:
    print(a.id, a.filename)

client.pull(artifact.id, output="./downloads/")

Share a file with a human

artifacta push slides.pdf --session demo-run --link
# → https://dl.artifacta.io/lnk_... (expires in 7 days)

Agent patterns

Set the session and key once in your orchestrator; every sub-agent inherits them:

export ARTIFACTA_API_KEY="ak_live_..."
export ARTIFACTA_SESSION_ID="$(artifacta session new)"

python agent_a.py   # pushes inherit ARTIFACTA_SESSION_ID automatically
python agent_b.py   # same session, zero flag passing

Auto-JSON when stdout is piped, human-readable on a TTY:

artifacta ls --session demo-run | jq '.artifacts[].id'
