Nexez Python Agent SDK

Dependency-free, typed Python client for buyer agents and agent builders that need to discover Nexez pages, read structured seller context, validate checkout, start an approved checkout handoff, or negotiate with a seller.

python -m pip install nexez-agent-sdk

from nexez_agent_sdk import create_client

nexez = create_client(buyer_agent="example-python-agent")

matches = nexez.search(
    "book a strategy session next week",
    location="Chicago, IL",
    limit=5,
)

first = matches["results"][0] if matches["results"] else None
if not first or not first.get("offer"):
    raise RuntimeError("No actionable Nexez offer was found.")

page = nexez.get_agent_page(first["page"]["slug"])
offer_key = first["offer"]["key"]
if not any(offer.get("key") == offer_key for offer in page.get("offers", [])):
    raise RuntimeError("The selected offer is no longer available.")

validation = nexez.validate_checkout(
    slug=first["page"]["slug"],
    offer=offer_key,
    query="Buyer wants a strategy session next week.",
)

Side-effecting calls require a separate, explicit approval flag. Forward the dry-run token and use one stable retry key for that exact action:

checkout = nexez.start_checkout(
    slug=first["page"]["slug"],
    offer=offer_key,
    query="Buyer wants a strategy session next week.",
    approval_token=validation.get("approvalToken"),
    user_approved=True,
    idempotency_key="buyer-order-1234567890",
)

API

• create_client(base_url=..., buyer_agent=..., timeout=..., transport=...) - create a client. Defaults to https://nexez.app.
• search_nexez(query, **options) - search published agent pages by buyer intent, category, industry, readiness/trust, verification, checkout/negotiation capability, price band, and text location. lat/lng are context only.
• browse_directory(**options) - browse published pages by category, minimum readiness, query, and location.
• get_agent_page(slug, **options) - fetch /{slug}/agent.json.
• validate_checkout(payload=None, **kwargs) - dry-run checkout through /api/checkout.
• start_checkout(payload=None, user_approved=True, **kwargs) - start checkout only after explicit buyer approval.
• validate_negotiation(payload=None, **kwargs) - dry-run proposal validation through /api/negotiations.
• submit_negotiation(payload=None, user_approved=True, **kwargs) - submit a buyer proposal after explicit user approval.
• get_negotiation_status(negotiation_id, status_token, **options) - safely poll an asynchronous negotiation.
• wait_for_negotiation_decision(negotiation_id, status_token, timeout=30, poll_interval=2, **options) - poll until decisionPending is false, with a hard five-minute maximum.

Client methods accept Pythonic snake_case aliases for API fields:

• buyer_agent -> buyerAgent
• buyer_email -> buyerEmail
• buyer_name -> buyerName
• buyer_reference -> buyerReference
• requested_terms -> requestedTerms
• negotiation_id -> negotiationId
• status_token -> statusToken
• approval_token -> approvalToken

user_approved is a local SDK safety gate. It is stripped before the request and is never sent to Nexez. The package also exports TypedDict contracts for checkout, negotiation, search, manifests, and status responses.

Custom base_url values may include a deployment path prefix, such as https://example.test/nexez; the SDK preserves that prefix for every request. Only http and https URLs without credentials, query strings, or fragments are accepted.

Safety

Use validate_checkout or validate_negotiation before side-effecting actions. start_checkout and submit_negotiation reject calls unless their keyword-only user_approved=True gate is present and always send dryRun: false. An approval-like value embedded in a payload does not satisfy this gate. Approval tokens bind validated commercial terms while allowing buyer identity to remain local until consent.

Treat statusToken as a bearer credential: never log it or show it in buyer-facing output. SDK-generated API, transport, and protocol errors redact the token from their public url attribute. wait_for_negotiation_decision raises TimeoutError when its bounded wait expires.

Errors

• NexezApiError - the API returned a non-2xx status; inspect status and body.
• NexezTransportError - DNS, connection, timeout, or custom-transport failure.
• NexezProtocolError - a 2xx response was not a JSON object or violated the status contract.
