scp-sdk 0.2.2

Python SDK for System Capability Protocol - programmatic manifest/graph access and integration framework

SCP SDK

Python SDK for the System Capability Protocol (SCP) - programmatic access to manifests and graphs, plus a framework for building integrations.

Features

• Core Models: Type-safe Pydantic models for SCP v0.1 manifests
• Graph Abstraction: Efficient querying and traversal of system dependencies
• Integration Framework: Reusable base classes and utilities for building integrations (60-80% code reduction)
• Fully Tested: Comprehensive test suite with pytest

Documentation

• API Reference: Detailed API documentation for all modules.
• Integration Guide: Step-by-step tutorial for building custom integrations.
• Examples: Common usage patterns and code snippets.

Architecture

The SDK is composed of three main layers:

1. Core (scp_sdk.core): Defines the data models (SCPManifest, System, Dependency) and the Graph abstraction for analyzing architecture.
2. Integrations (scp_sdk.integrations): Provides a framework (IntegrationBase, IntegrationConfig) for syncing SCP data to external tools (PagerDuty, ServiceNow, etc.).
3. Utilities (scp_sdk.utils): Helper functions for tier handling and common tasks.

Installation

# Using uv (recommended)
cd /path/to/scp-sdk
uv sync

# Or with pip
pip install -e .

Quick Start

Load and Query Manifests

from scp_sdk import Manifest

# Load from file
manifest = Manifest.from_file("scp.yaml")

# Or from YAML string
yaml_str = """
scp: "0.1.0"
system:
  urn: "urn:scp:payment-service"
  name: "Payment Service"
  classification:
    tier: 1
"""
manifest = Manifest.from_yaml(yaml_str)

# Query
print(manifest.urn)  # urn:scp:payment-service
print(manifest.tier)  # 1
print(manifest.team)  # team name

# Get specific dependency
dep = manifest.get_dependency("urn:scp:user-service")
print(dep.criticality)  # required

Build and Query Graphs

from scp_sdk import Graph

# Load from unified JSON (from scp-cli scan --export json)
graph = Graph.from_file("graph.json")

# Or build from manifests
graph = Graph.from_manifests([manifest1, manifest2])

# Query
for system in graph.systems():
    print(system.name)

# Find system
payment_svc = graph.find_system("urn:scp:payment-service")

# Get dependencies
deps = graph.dependencies_of(payment_svc)

# Get blast radius (what depends on this system)
dependents = graph.dependents_of(payment_svc)

Build Custom Integrations

The SDK makes building integrations incredibly simple:

from scp_sdk.core.graph import SystemNode, DependencyEdge
from scp_sdk.integrations.base import IntegrationBase
from scp_sdk.integrations.registry import register_integration

@register_integration("pagerduty")
class PagerDutyIntegration(IntegrationBase):
    """Sync SCP systems to PagerDuty services."""

    def sync_system(self, system: SystemNode) -> None:
        """Create/update PagerDuty service."""
        service_data = {
            "name": system.name,
            "description": f"SCP System: {system.urn}",
            "escalation_policy": self.get_policy(system.team),
        }
        # Call PagerDuty API...

    def sync_dependency(self, edge: DependencyEdge) -> None:
        """Sync dependency (optional for PagerDuty)."""
        pass

# Usage
from scp_sdk.integrations.config import IntegrationConfig

config = IntegrationConfig(name="pagerduty", auth={...})
integration = PagerDutyIntegration(config)
result = integration.sync(graph)

The SDK handles:

• Graph iteration
• Error handling & retries
• Logging
• Dry-run mode
• ID caching
• Field mapping utilities
