Calibrate Python Library

The Calibrate Python SDK provides convenient, typed access to the Calibrate agent evaluation platform API. Authenticate with an API key (sk_…) scoped to your organization to run agent tests and poll their results.

Installation

pip install calibrate-sdk

Pre-requisites

You need to have a Calibrate API key. You can get the API key from the UI.

Reference

A full reference for this library is available here.

Quick Start

from calibrate import Calibrate

client = Calibrate(api_key="sk_...")

# List the agents in your organization
agents = client.agents.list()

# Kick off a test run for an agent and poll for the result
run = client.agent_tests.run(agent_uuid="<agent-uuid>")
result = client.agent_tests.get_run(task_id=run.task_id)

Usage

Instantiate and use the client with the following:

from calibrate import Calibrate

client = Calibrate(
    api_key="<value>",
)

client.agents.verify_connection(
    agent_uuid="f47ac10b-58cc-4372-a567-0e02b2c3d479",
)

Environments

This SDK allows you to configure different environments for API requests.

from calibrate import Calibrate
from calibrate.environment import CalibrateEnvironment

client = Calibrate(
    environment=CalibrateEnvironment.DEFAULT,
)

Async Client

The SDK also exports an async client so that you can make non-blocking calls to our API. Note that if you are constructing an Async httpx client class to pass into this client, use httpx.AsyncClient() instead of httpx.Client() (e.g. for the httpx_client parameter of this client).

import asyncio

from calibrate import AsyncCalibrate

client = AsyncCalibrate(
    api_key="<value>",
)


async def main() -> None:
    await client.agents.verify_connection(
        agent_uuid="f47ac10b-58cc-4372-a567-0e02b2c3d479",
    )


asyncio.run(main())

Exception Handling

When the API returns a non-success status code (4xx or 5xx response), a subclass of the following error will be thrown.

from calibrate.core.api_error import ApiError

try:
    client.agents.verify_connection(...)
except ApiError as e:
    print(e.status_code)
    print(e.body)

Advanced

Access Raw Response Data

The SDK provides access to raw response data, including headers, through the .with_raw_response property. The .with_raw_response property returns a "raw" client that can be used to access the .headers and .data attributes.

from calibrate import Calibrate

client = Calibrate(...)
response = client.agents.with_raw_response.verify_connection(...)
print(response.headers)  # access the response headers
print(response.status_code)  # access the response status code
print(response.data)  # access the underlying object

Retries

The SDK is instrumented with automatic retries with exponential backoff. A request will be retried as long as the request is deemed retryable and the number of retry attempts has not grown larger than the configured retry limit (default: 2).

Which status codes are retried depends on the retryStatusCodes generator configuration:

legacy (current default): retries on

408 (Timeout)
409 (Conflict)
429 (Too Many Requests)
5XX (All server errors, including 500)

recommended: retries on

408 (Timeout)
409 (Conflict)
429 (Too Many Requests)
502 (Bad Gateway)
503 (Service Unavailable)
504 (Gateway Timeout)

Use the max_retries request option to configure this behavior.

client.agents.verify_connection(..., request_options={
    "max_retries": 1
})

Timeouts

The SDK defaults to a 60 second timeout. You can configure this with a timeout option at the client or request level.

from calibrate import Calibrate

client = Calibrate(..., timeout=20.0)

# Override timeout for a specific method
client.agents.verify_connection(..., request_options={
    "timeout_in_seconds": 1
})

Custom Client

You can override the httpx client to customize it for your use-case. Some common use-cases include support for proxies and transports.

import httpx
from calibrate import Calibrate

client = Calibrate(
    ...,
    httpx_client=httpx.Client(
        proxy="http://my.test.proxy.example.com",
        transport=httpx.HTTPTransport(local_address="0.0.0.0"),
    ),
)
