Hyperforge

Hyperforge is an Agentic Framework for Orchestrated Runtime, Governance, and Execution — the core runtime powering AI agent workflows at Nuclia. It provides the infrastructure for defining, deploying, and running agentic pipelines backed by NucliaDB for memory and retrieval, Redis/Valkey for pub/sub and session state, PostgreSQL for persistence, and a FastAPI HTTP/WebSocket API surface.

Architecture Overview

hyperforge/
├── api/          # FastAPI application, REST + WebSocket endpoints, OAuth
├── broker/       # Pub/sub backends (Redis, local)
├── context/      # Execution context passed through agent runs
├── db/           # SQLAlchemy models and Alembic migrations
├── memory/       # Session memory backed by NucliaDB
├── retrieval/    # Retrieval agent and config
├── server/       # Long-running server process
├── standalone/   # Single-process standalone mode
├── agent.py      # Base Agent and AgentConfig abstractions
├── engine.py     # Initialization and state wiring
├── manager.py    # Agent lifecycle manager
├── workflows.py  # Workflow data models
└── settings.py   # Pydantic settings (env-driven)

Key components:

  • Agent / AgentConfig — abstract base classes for building typed, configurable agents
  • Engine — initializes agent state, loads external modules, wires LLM connections and memory
  • Manager — handles agent lifecycle within a session
  • Memory — session-scoped memory stored in NucliaDB (SessionMemory, QuestionMemory)
  • Broker — pub/sub layer (Redis or in-process) for streaming workflow events
  • API — FastAPI app exposing REST and WebSocket endpoints for agents, workflows, sessions, MCP, and OAuth
  • Workflows — structured workflow definitions with parameters, rules, and required fields

Install

Other entry points

Command Description

Health and observability endpoints

  • GET /health/ready — readiness probe
  • GET /health/alive — liveness probe
  • GET /metrics — Prometheus metrics

Configuration

All settings are provided through environment variables consumed by Pydantic BaseSettings.

Variable Description
HTTP_HOST Bind host (default 0.0.0.0)
HTTP_PORT Bind port (default 8080)
MEMORY_READER_NUCLIADB NucliaDB read endpoint
MEMORY_WRITER_NUCLIADB NucliaDB write endpoint
MEMORY_SEARCH_NUCLIADB NucliaDB search endpoint
MEMORY_APIKEY_NUCLIADB NucliaDB API key
VALKEY_URL Redis/Valkey connection URL
LOAD_MODULES Comma-separated list of agent package modules to load at startup
NUCLIA_ZONE Nuclia zone (default arag)
NUCLIA_PUBLIC_URL Public Nuclia URL template (default https://{zone}.nuclia.com)

Standalone A2A

Standalone can expose its configured static agent over A2A from the same hyperforge-standalone process. It requires a Redis/Valkey broker because A2A task state and cross-instance feedback are durable Redis stores; the default in-memory broker remains suitable only for HTTP/MCP local development.

BROKER_REDIS_DSN=redis://valkey:6379 \
A2A_ENABLED=true \
A2A_ACCOUNT=local \
A2A_AGENT_ID=venue \
A2A_GRPC_HOST=0.0.0.0 \
A2A_GRPC_PORT=8034 \
A2A_PUBLIC_URL=venue.example.test:8034 \
uv run hyperforge-standalone

Use distinct BROKER_REDIS_ACTIVATE_SUBJECT and A2A_TASK_STORE_PREFIX values for independent Standalone installations sharing one Valkey cluster. TLS and mTLS use the A2A_TLS_* variables supported by the SaaS A2A server. If the owner process restarts while a task awaits feedback, the client must resend the request; Redis keeps protocol task visibility but does not serialize live workflow continuations.

Loading Agent Packages

Hyperforge supports dynamically loading external agent packages at startup. Set the LOAD_MODULES environment variable to a comma-separated list of Python module names. Each module is scanned for agent and configuration definitions and registered in the global registry.

LOAD_MODULES=hyperforge_rephrase,my_custom_agent uv run hyperforge-api

Development

Run tests from the workspace root:

uv run pytest hyperforge

Run a specific test file:

uv run pytest hyperforge/tests/test_engine.py

Format and lint:

make fmt
