openbrokers-ibx 0.0.1

High-performance async SDK for the Interactive Brokers Gateway API.

ibx

Pre-alpha / under construction. Nothing here is released or installable yet.

What this aims to be

ibx aims to be a high-performance, async-first Python SDK for the Interactive Brokers Gateway local API. The goal is a sans-I/O protocol core (no sockets, no clock, no asyncio in the core) with an optional Rust-accelerated hot path, a hybrid protobuf + legacy codec, and typed facades intended for algorithmic trading, colocation, Jupyter research, and AI agents over MCP.

The project is governed by two absolutes it intends never to trade away: order-path correctness (no duplicate-order window, no silently dropped send, no fabricated data) and claim honesty — a feature or number is treated as real only once a CI gate executes it. See CLAUDE.md for the north star and BLUEPRINT.md for the full design.

Status

Under active construction at milestone M0. There is no published package and no public API yet. This README describes intended goals, not shipped behavior. By project policy, capability and performance claims appear here only once a CI gate executes them — so this section will stay deliberately sparse until those gates exist.
