connic-composer-sdk 0.1.13

The Connic Composer SDK for building agents and enterprise-level tools.

Connic Composer SDK

Build Connic agents in code.

Define agents in YAML, extend them with Python, test them with hot reload against Connic cloud, and deploy them to Connic-managed environments.

What It Is

connic-composer-sdk is the Python SDK and CLI for Connic's code-first agent workflow.

Use it to:

• define agents in YAML
• write custom tools as plain Python functions
• add middleware, schemas, sessions, retries, concurrency, and guardrails
• connect MCP servers and use Connic's predefined tools
• validate projects locally before uploading anything
• run hot-reload test sessions in isolated cloud environments
• deploy to Connic from the CLI or through a connected Git repository

Installation

pip install connic-composer-sdk

Requires Python 3.10 or newer.

Quick Start

# Create a new project
connic init my-agents
cd my-agents

# Authenticate this project with Connic
connic login

# Validate the project locally
connic lint

# Start a hot-reload test session in Connic cloud
connic test

The default scaffold is intentionally minimal. If you want a starter project with working examples, use templates:

connic init my-agents --templates=invoice,customer-support

Browse available templates at connic.co/agents.

  You are a concise support agent.
  Use tools when they help produce a more accurate answer.

tools:
  - billing.lookup_invoice
  - query_knowledge

  key: input.user_id
  ttl: 86400

guardrails:
  input:
    - type: prompt_injection
      mode: block
  output:
    - type: system_prompt_leakage
      mode: block

tools/billing.py

def lookup_invoice(invoice_id: str) -> dict:
    """Look up invoice status by invoice ID.

    Args:
        invoice_id: The invoice identifier

    Returns:
        Invoice details for the requested invoice
    """
    return {
        "invoice_id": invoice_id,
        "status": "paid",
        "amount": 199.0,
        "currency": "USD",
    }

Run:

connic lint
connic tools
connic test

Core Concepts

Agent Types

See Agent Configuration for the full YAML reference.

• llm: an LLM-driven agent with prompts, tools, MCP servers, schemas, and guardrails
• tool: a direct wrapper around a Python tool
• sequential: a pipeline that executes multiple agents in order

Tools

Custom tools are plain Python functions discovered from tools/, including nested modules. Type hints and docstrings are used to generate tool schemas automatically. See Writing Tools for details.

The SDK also exposes predefined Connic tools such as the ones documented in Predefined Tools:

• trigger_agent
• trigger_agent_at
• query_knowledge
• store_knowledge
• delete_knowledge
• kb_list_namespaces
• web_search
• web_read_page
• db_find
• db_insert
• db_update
• db_delete
• db_count
• db_list_collections

Middleware and Runtime Controls

Per-agent middleware lets you modify inputs, enrich context, attach files, stop execution early, and transform outputs. See Middleware.

The YAML model also supports:

• retries
• timeouts
• max iteration limits
• key-based concurrency control
• persistent sessions
• output schemas
• MCP server connections
• input and output guardrails

• MCP
• Guardrails

CLI Commands

Command	Description
connic init [name]	Create a new project scaffold
connic init [name] --templates=...	Create a project from one or more starter templates
connic login	Save project credentials in .connic
connic lint	Validate agents, tools, middleware, and schemas locally
connic tools	List discovered tools and signatures
connic test [name]	Start an isolated cloud test environment with hot reload
connic deploy	Deploy from the CLI to a Connic environment for projects without a connected Git repository
connic migrate	Migrate a LangChain or Google ADK project into a Connic project

Run connic <command> --help for flags and examples.

Development Workflow

Local Validation

connic lint loads your project locally and catches issues like:

• invalid YAML
• missing required agent fields
• unresolved tool references
• duplicate agent names
• schema and middleware loading problems

Hot-Reload Testing

connic test creates an isolated development environment in Connic cloud, uploads your local files, and re-syncs changes in a few seconds while you iterate.

This is the main development loop when you need real connectors, predefined tools, and environment-scoped services.

Deployment

Deployment targets Connic-managed environments.

• If your Connic project is connected to a Git repository, pushing to the configured branch is the primary deployment flow.
• connic deploy is available for CLI-driven deployments and for projects that do not use a connected repository.
