idprova-agents 0.1.0

Verifiable, scope-gated tool execution for AI agent frameworks (IDProva)

idprova-agents

Verifiable, scope-gated tool execution for AI agent frameworks.

idprova-agents wraps your agent's tool calls with a scope gate (the agent may only call tools its delegation token permits) and writes a signed, hash-chained receipt for every call — allowed or denied. Receipts verify independently with the idprova CLI (idprova receipt verify receipts.jsonl), so the audit trail does not depend on trusting the agent or this library.

Part of the IDProva project.

Install

Not yet on PyPI. Install from the repository:

pip install "idprova-agents[langchain] @ git+https://github.com/techblaze-au/idprova#subdirectory=sdks/python-agents"

Or, from a clone:

pip install "./sdks/python-agents[langchain]"

Quickstart

See examples/langchain/quickstart.py for a runnable end-to-end demo (allow an in-scope tool, block an out-of-scope tool, emit verifiable receipts).

from cryptography.hazmat.primitives.asymmetric.ed25519 import Ed25519PrivateKey
from langchain_core.tools import Tool
from idprova_agents import ToolGuard, guarded_tool

SCOPES = {"knowledge_base_search": "mcp:tool:knowledge-base:read"}
guard = ToolGuard(
    aid="did:aid:co:support-agent",
    dat="dat-...",
    signing_key=Ed25519PrivateKey.generate(),
    scope_for_tool=lambda name: SCOPES.get(name, "mcp:tool:unknown:none"),
    granted_scopes=["mcp:tool:knowledge-base:read"],
    receipts_path="receipts.jsonl",
)
kb = guarded_tool(Tool.from_function(
    func=your_kb_search, name="knowledge_base_search", description="Search the KB"), guard)
kb.invoke("quantum computing")   # runs + writes a "success" receipt

What's included

• ToolGuard — scope check + signed receipt emission.
• guarded_tool() — wrap a LangChain Tool so its execution is scope-gated.
• IDProvaGuardCallbackHandler — LangChain callback handler (enforce or audit-only).

Adapters for additional frameworks (CrewAI, AutoGen) are planned as optional extras.
