Marona Python SDK

Run Agents through one managed API, with structured output, local tools, Hub capabilities, streaming, realtime and A2A collaboration.

Install

Version 2.0.0. Package registry.

Python 3.10+.

python -m pip install --upgrade marona==2.0.0

Set MARONA_API_KEY in your backend environment. Never commit it, log it, or embed a developer key in browser or mobile code. Use an exact accessible marona/* model alias from Marona Platform.

Agent quickstart

Save as examples/agent_example.py. Run without arguments for text, or with a real PNG/JPEG path for document extraction. Use stable application user IDs and a distinct session ID for each conversation.

import asyncio

import os

from pathlib import Path

from marona import Agent, Marona, Runner


async def main():
    async with Marona(
        api_key=os.environ["MARONA_API_KEY"],
        base_url=os.getenv("MARONA_RUNTIME_URL", "https://edge.marona.ai"),
    ):
        agent = Agent(
            name="Document Assistant",
            model=os.getenv("MARONA_MODEL", "marona/qwen-qwen3.8-max-0902"),
            instructions="Answer clearly and concisely.",
            tool_choice="none",
        )
        user_input = "Reply with exactly OK."
        if len(sys.argv) > 1:
            path = Path(sys.argv[1])
            mime = {".png": "image/png", ".jpg": "image/jpeg", ".jpeg": "image/jpeg"}[path.suffix.lower()]
            data_url = f"data:{mime};base64," + base64.b64encode(path.read_bytes()).decode("ascii")
            user_input = [{"role": "user", "content": [
                {"type": "input_text", "text": "Describe this image and transcribe any visible text."},
                {"type": "input_image", "image_url": data_url},
            ]}]
        result = await Runner.run(
            agent, user_input, user_id="example-user", session_id="example-session"
        )
        print(result.output)

Encode actual file bytes with standard Base64. Image and file blocks accept raw Base64 in image_data / file_data, or complete matching data URLs. Do not encode a path, encode twice, or send placeholder data. Remote URLs must be reachable by the runtime. PDF, audio and realtime support depend on the selected model; render PDF pages to images when native PDF is unavailable.

Structured output through Agent

The following fragment uses the authenticated client from the quickstart. document_input is your text or document message input.

from pydantic import BaseModel, ConfigDict
from marona import Agent, Runner

class Extraction(BaseModel):
    model_config = ConfigDict(extra="forbid")
    text: str

agent = Agent(
    name="Document Reader",
    model="marona/qwen-qwen3.8-max-0902",
    instructions="Extract the document text.",
    output_type=Extraction,
    output_schema_strict=True,
)
result = await Runner.run(agent, document_input, user_id="user-123")
print(result.output.text)

The explicit strict option asks the provider to enforce the supplied schema; the SDK also validates the final result before returning it. Strict mode requires a compatible model and schema. Declare every object property as required, use nullable values for optional fields, and set additionalProperties to false. Unsupported model capabilities or invalid output produce errors; they do not silently fall back to unstructured text. Input schemas, function tool schemas, guardrails, dynamic instructions and lifecycle hooks are also supported.

Apps and user connections

page = await marona.apps.list_async(user_id="user-123", limit=20)
action = await marona.apps.connect_async("calendar", user_id="user-123")
# Complete any returned authorization_url before calling protected tools.
await marona.apps.disconnect_async("calendar")

Listing an App does not authorize its protected operations. Follow the returned connection action for the end user. Use hub.connect to expose a scoped set of App or Skill capabilities to an Agent; Apps authorization and Hub tool discovery are separate operations.

A2A collaboration and serving

import os
from marona import A2APeer, A2AServer, Agent

peer = A2APeer(name="reviewer", url="https://reviewer.example.com")
coordinator = Agent(name="Coordinator", peers=[peer])
server = A2AServer(
    agent=coordinator,
    url="https://coordinator.example.com",
    skills=[{"id": "review", "name": "Review", "description": "Review a document"}],
)
# Apply production authentication and TLS at your service boundary.
server.run(host="127.0.0.1", port=8100)

Peers support Agent Card discovery, REST/JSON-RPC messages, task retrieval, cancellation, continuation and streamed task events. Servers persist task state. Use explicit credentials, restricted skills, HTTPS, and an appropriate durable task directory for production. Local JSON stores are for a single service instance; multi-instance deployments require coordinated task storage.

Push notifications are not implemented.

Execution and errors

Use Runner.stream for streamed Agent events and RealtimeRunner for a live session. Delegation and handoffs use explicit Agent graphs. Set execution limits and validate permissions before tools with side effects; cancellation cannot roll back an operation that has already executed.

Inspect the canonical error code, HTTP status, request ID and retry metadata. Correct invalid input and authorization errors before retrying. Use bounded retries for transient failures. Never include credentials or document content in error reports.
