iap-agent 0.1.1

Identity Anchor Protocol SDK for signing requests and offline certificate verification

iap-sdk

Python SDK for Identity Anchor Protocol (IAP) request signing and offline certificate verification.

Install

Published package:

python -m pip install -U pip
python -m pip install iap-agent
iap-agent version

Local editable development install:

python -m pip install -e ".[dev]"

What this package provides

• Deterministic agent_id derivation from Ed25519 public keys
• Canonical request builders and signers for continuity, lineage, key rotation
• Registry API client helpers
• Offline certificate verification (including identity-anchor checks)
• Liveness and transparency helper utilities

Quick example

from iap_sdk import build_continuity_request, sign_continuity_request

payload = build_continuity_request(
    agent_public_key_b64="...",
    agent_id="ed25519:...",
    memory_root="a" * 64,
    sequence=1,
    manifest_version="IAM-1",
    manifest_hash="b" * 64,
)
signed = sign_continuity_request(payload, private_key_bytes=b"...")
