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

├── 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

├── 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

Running

API server

Other entry points

Command	Description

`hyperforge-server`	Background server process
`hyperforge-sandbox`	Sandbox execution environment

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:
