Assay Python Bindings

assay-it is the Python package for the assay import namespace.

It currently provides a small, bounded surface on top of Assay core:

  • AssayClient for writing JSONL trace records from Python
  • Coverage for policy coverage analysis against trace/tool-call inputs
  • Explainer for rule-by-rule explanation of a single trace
  • a pytest fixture plugin exposed as assay_client

Install

pip install assay-it

Import path:

from assay import AssayClient, Coverage, Explainer, validate

What It Is

This package is for Python-side trace capture and lightweight policy-analysis helpers. It is useful when you want to:

  • append structured trace events to a JSONL file from Python
  • analyze tool-call traces against an Assay policy
  • explain why a given trace matched or violated policy rules
  • use a simple pytest fixture around the Python client

What It Is Not

This package is not the full Assay CLI or the full trust-compiler surface. It does not replace:

  • assay mcp wrap and runtime MCP enforcement
  • evidence bundle generation and verification workflows
  • Trust Basis / Trust Card generation
  • the GitHub Action or release-binary install path

Those outward-facing product surfaces live in the main Assay CLI and repository docs.

Example

from assay import AssayClient, Coverage, Explainer

client = AssayClient("traces.jsonl")
client.record_trace({"tool": "ToolA", "args": {"q": "weather"}})

coverage = Coverage("assay.yaml")
report = coverage.analyze([[{"tool": "ToolA", "args": {"q": "weather"}}]])

explainer = Explainer("assay.yaml")
details = explainer.explain([{"tool": "ToolA", "args": {"q": "weather"}}])
