Agent-agnostic compliance shim for SOX 404 policy enforcement via the ALCV Vault

Ledgix ALCV — Python SDK

Agent-agnostic compliance shim for SOX 404 policy enforcement. Intercepts AI agent tool calls, validates them against your policies via the ALCV Vault, and ensures only approved actions receive a cryptographically signed A-JWT (Agentic JSON Web Token).

Quick Start

pip install ledgix-python

from ledgix_python import LedgixClient, vault_enforce

client = LedgixClient()  # Reads LEDGIX_VAULT_URL, LEDGIX_VAULT_API_KEY from env

@vault_enforce(client, tool_name="stripe_refund")
def process_refund(amount: float, reason: str, **kwargs):
    token = kwargs["_clearance"].token  # Signed A-JWT
    return stripe.refund(amount=amount, metadata={"vault_token": token})

That's it. Three lines to SOX 404-compliant tool calls.

Configuration

Set environment variables (prefix: LEDGIX_):

Variable	Default	Description
LEDGIX_VAULT_URL	http://localhost:8000	Vault server URL
LEDGIX_VAULT_API_KEY	""	API key for Vault auth
LEDGIX_VAULT_TIMEOUT	30.0	Request timeout (seconds)
LEDGIX_VERIFY_JWT	true	Verify A-JWT signatures
LEDGIX_JWT_ISSUER	alcv-vault	Expected A-JWT issuer
LEDGIX_JWT_AUDIENCE	ledgix-sdk	Expected A-JWT audience
LEDGIX_AGENT_ID	default-agent	Agent identifier

Or pass a VaultConfig directly:

from ledgix_python import LedgixClient, VaultConfig

config = VaultConfig(vault_url="https://vault.mycompany.com", vault_api_key="sk-...")
client = LedgixClient(config=config)

Framework Adapters

LangChain

pip install ledgix-python[langchain]

from ledgix_python.adapters.langchain import LedgixCallbackHandler, LedgixTool

# Option 1: Callback handler (intercepts ALL tool calls)
handler = LedgixCallbackHandler(client)
agent = create_agent(callbacks=[handler])

# Option 2: Wrap individual tools
guarded_tool = LedgixTool.wrap(client, my_tool, policy_id="refund-policy")

LlamaIndex

pip install ledgix-python[llamaindex]

from ledgix_python.adapters.llamaindex import wrap_tool

guarded_tool = wrap_tool(client, my_function_tool, policy_id="refund-policy")

CrewAI

pip install ledgix-python[crewai]

from ledgix_python.adapters.crewai import LedgixCrewAITool

guarded_tool = LedgixCrewAITool.wrap(client, my_tool, policy_id="refund-policy")

Context Manager

from ledgix_python import VaultContext

with VaultContext(client, "stripe_refund", {"amount": 45}) as ctx:
    print(ctx.clearance.token)  # Use the A-JWT

# Async
async with VaultContext(client, "stripe_refund", {"amount": 45}) as ctx:
    print(ctx.clearance.token)

Error Handling

from ledgix_python import ClearanceDeniedError, VaultConnectionError, TokenVerificationError

try:
    result = process_refund(amount=5000, reason="...")
except ClearanceDeniedError as e:
    print(f"Blocked: {e.reason} (request: {e.request_id})")
except VaultConnectionError:
    print("Cannot reach Vault — fail-closed")
except TokenVerificationError:
    print("A-JWT signature invalid")
