conduit-ai-agents 0.1.1

Cross-framework AI agent observability and reliability shim

Conduit

"LangSmith tells you what your agent did. Conduit tells you what went wrong, why, and fixes it — across any framework you already use."

Conduit is a cross-framework AI agent observability and reliability shim. It intercepts tool calls via OpenTelemetry, validates schemas, detects loops, and injects recovery context — all in < 5ms, without modifying your agent code.

Quick Start (< 5 minutes)

pip install conduit-ai-agents

LangGraph (2 lines)

from conduit.shim.adapters.langgraph import install_for_langgraph
install_for_langgraph()

# Your existing LangGraph code — unchanged
graph = StateGraph(State)
# ...

OpenAI Agents SDK (2 lines)

from conduit.shim.adapters.openai_sdk import install_for_openai_sdk
install_for_openai_sdk()

# Your existing agent code — unchanged
agent = Agent(name="...", tools=[...])

What Conduit Does

Problem	Conduit's solution
Tool called with wrong param types	Schema validator auto-corrects "10" → 10 before execution
Agent loops on the same failed call	Loop detector fires at N=3, injects replan context
Tool times out repeatedly	Failure classifier + recovery engine retries with backoff
Schema drifted since agent was written	Drift detection + conduit schema update to fix
No visibility into agent failures	Dashboard with live failure feed + prescriptive recommendations

CLI

conduit dashboard                          # Start web dashboard
conduit stream                             # Live failure stream in terminal
conduit recommend                          # Print current recommendations

conduit schema list                        # List registered schemas
conduit schema validate search_web \
  --params '{"query":"test","max_results":"10"}'   # Validate params
conduit schema update search_web --from-drift      # Accept observed drift
conduit schema discover email_send                 # Infer schema from call history
conduit fix --recommendation UPDATE_SCHEMA_search_web

Register a Schema

from conduit.registry.store import SchemaRegistry

registry = SchemaRegistry("./conduit.db")
registry.register(
    tool_id="search_web",
    schema={
        "type": "object",
        "properties": {
            "query": {"type": "string"},
            "max_results": {"type": "integer", "minimum": 1, "maximum": 100},
        },
        "required": ["query", "max_results"],
    },
    version="1.0.0",
)

Ingest MCP Manifests

from conduit.registry.mcp import ingest_mcp_manifest, discover_mcp_servers

# From a file
ingest_mcp_manifest(registry, "/path/to/mcp_server.json")

# Auto-discover from CLAUDE_MCP_SERVERS env var
discover_mcp_servers(registry)

Configuration (conduit.yaml)

shim:
  timeout_ms: 5          # Pass-through if intelligence plane takes > 5ms
  fallback: pass_through

validation:
  hard_gate: false       # true = block invalid calls; false = log and pass
  auto_correct: true     # Auto-fix type mismatches, field renames

detection:
  loop_threshold: 3      # N identical calls = loop detected
  loop_window: 10

recovery:
  enabled: true
  max_retries: 2

registry:
  db_path: ./conduit.db

Key Invariants

1. Never raises into agent code — all hooks are try/except
2. Never blocks — passes through if intelligence plane exceeds timeout_ms
3. Privacy by default — no param values logged without CONDUIT_LOG_PAYLOADS=true
4. Loop detector is per-task — parallel agents never interfere
5. Recovery is idempotent — same failure never injected twice

Architecture

Agent (LangGraph / OpenAI SDK / CrewAI)
    │
    ▼ tool calls
[Conduit ConduitProcessor]  ← OTel SpanProcessor
    │ pre-hook: SchemaValidator (< 3ms)
    │ post-hook: ToolFailureDetector + AgentLoopDetector + RecoveryEngine
    ▼
OTel Collector → SQLite (conduit.db)
    ▼
Dashboard (localhost:7432) — prescriptive recommendations
