shannon-sdk 0.2.0a1

Python SDK for Shannon multi-agent AI platform

Shannon Python SDK

Python client for Shannon multi-agent AI platform.

Version: 0.1.0a2 (Alpha)

Installation

# Development installation (from this directory)
pip install -e .

# With dev dependencies
pip install -e ".[dev]"

Quick Start

from shannon import ShannonClient

# Initialize client (HTTP-only)
client = ShannonClient(
    base_url="http://localhost:8080",
    api_key="your-api-key"  # or use bearer_token
)

# Submit a task
handle = client.submit_task(
    "Analyze market trends for Q4 2024",
    session_id="my-session",
)

print(f"Task submitted: {handle.task_id}")
print(f"Workflow ID: {handle.workflow_id}")

# Get status
status = client.get_status(handle.task_id)
print(f"Status: {status.status}")
print(f"Progress: {status.progress:.1%}")

# Cancel if needed
# client.cancel(handle.task_id, reason="User requested")

client.close()

CLI Examples

# Submit a task and wait for completion
python -m shannon.cli --base-url http://localhost:8080 submit "What is 2+2?" --wait

# List sessions (first 5)
python -m shannon.cli --base-url http://localhost:8080 session-list --limit 5

session-list	--limit --offset	List sessions	GET /api/v1/sessions
session-get	session_id --no-history	Get session details (optionally fetch history)	GET /api/v1/sessions/{id} (+ GET /api/v1/sessions/{id}/history)
session-title	session_id title	Update session title	PATCH /api/v1/sessions/{id}
session-delete	session_id	Delete a session	DELETE /api/v1/sessions/{id}

• session-list: python -m shannon.cli --base-url http://localhost:8080 session-list --limit 10 --offset 0
• session-get: python -m shannon.cli --base-url http://localhost:8080 session-get my-session
• session-title: python -m shannon.cli --base-url http://localhost:8080 session-title my-session "My Session Title"
• session-delete: python -m shannon.cli --base-url http://localhost:8080 session-delete my-session

Async Usage

import asyncio
from shannon import AsyncShannonClient

async def main():
    async with AsyncShannonClient(
        base_url="http://localhost:8080",
        api_key="your-api-key"
    ) as client:
        handle = await client.submit_task("What is 2+2?")
        final = await client.wait(handle.task_id)
        print(f"Result: {final.result}")

asyncio.run(main())

Features

• ✅ HTTP-only client using httpx
• ✅ Task submission, status, wait, cancel
• ✅ Event streaming via HTTP SSE (resume + filtering)
• ✅ Approval decision endpoint
• ✅ Session endpoints: list/get/history/events/update title/delete
• ✅ CLI tool (submit, status, stream, approve, sessions)
• ✅ Async-first design with sync wrapper
• ✅ Type-safe enums (EventType, TaskStatusEnum)
• ✅ Error mapping for common HTTP codes

Examples

The SDK includes comprehensive examples demonstrating key features:

• simple_task.py - Basic task submission and status polling
• simple_streaming.py - Event streaming with filtering
• streaming_with_approvals.py - Approval workflow handling
• workflow_routing.py - Using labels for workflow routing and task categorization
• session_continuity.py - Multi-turn conversations with session management
• template_usage.py - Template-based task execution with versioning

Run any example:

cd clients/python
python examples/simple_task.py

Security

• Do not hardcode credentials in code. Prefer environment variables (SHANNON_API_KEY) or a secrets manager.
• Use --bearer-token for short-lived tokens where possible.
• Rotate API keys regularly and scope access minimally.
• Avoid logging sensitive headers (e.g., Authorization, X-API-Key, traceparent).

Rate Limits

• The Gateway may enforce rate limits. Use Idempotency-Key for safe retries of submit calls.
• Backoff on 429/5xx responses and consider adding application-level retry logic if needed.
