swarph-mesh 0.3.0

Model-agnostic Python substrate for the swarph-mesh ecosystem. v0.3.0 adds DeepSeekAdapter (Phase 4 #2) on top of v0.2.0's MeshClient + Phase 1 SwarphCall + GeminiAdapter.

swarph-mesh

Model-agnostic Python substrate for the swarph-mesh ecosystem. Pure library, no CLI.

Designed to fill the gap left by existing tools (aichat, mods, Simon Willison's llm, gemini-cli, claude-cli): none expose mesh-gateway participation, per-caller attribution, structured-output discipline, or the cooperative-protocol patterns the swarph encodes.

This is one of three repos in the v0.3.x architecture:

Repo	Role
swarph-mesh	This package — typed Protocol + adapters + SwarphCall + MeshClient
swarph-cli	The swarph binary. Thin client over swarph-mesh
swarph-meshlm	Simon Willison llm plugin. Same primitives wired into llm's plugin host

All three sit on top of swarph-shared which provides the cross-billing-path attribution + subprocess env scrubbing + JSON-mode harness + peer-name registry primitives.

Status

v0.3.0 — Phase 1 substrate + Phase 3 MeshClient + Phase 4 DeepSeek adapter. Three PLAN.md §13 falsifiability gates PASSED end-to-end against live infrastructure (real Gemini API + real DeepSeek API + real lab-OVH mesh-gateway).

Public surface:

• LLMAdapter Protocol (runtime-checkable) + ChatMessage + LLMResponse
• SwarphCall — caller-convention-validated entry point with hooks + attribution
• GeminiAdapter — wraps langgraph-genai-bridge (Flex tier, context caching)
• DeepSeekAdapter (NEW v0.3.0) — OpenAI-protocol-compatible client for V4-Flash / V4-Pro / V3 aliases; preserves reasoning content as [reasoning] preamble for portability
• JSON-mode harness — retry-once with [USER]-turn feedback (per swarph-shared invariant)
• Attribution: FileAttributionWriter default; set_default_writer() for production TSDB consumers
• MeshClient (v0.2.0) — async wrapper around mesh-gateway HTTP API; replaces hand-rolled curl in lab_loop_drain.py / mesh_inbox_watcher.py / science_claude_inbox_drain.py

Tests: 100+ passing (97 offline + 1 live deepseek + 2 live mesh + 1 live gemini smoke; live tests gated on respective env tokens).

from swarph_mesh import SwarphCall, ChatMessage

# Phase 1 — LLM call with attribution
result = await SwarphCall(
    provider="gemini",
    caller="orchestrator.boss",
).chat(
    messages=[ChatMessage(role="user", content="hi")],
)
print(result.text, result.cost_usd, result.input_tokens)

from swarph_mesh import MeshClient
import os

# Phase 3 — mesh-gateway DM coordination
async with MeshClient(node="lab-ovh") as client:  # token from MESH_GATEWAY_TOKEN env
    peers = await client.list_peers()
    msgs = await client.fetch(unread_only=True)
    sent = await client.send(to="droplet", kind="fyi", content="hello")
    await client.mark_read(msgs[0].id)

MeshClient.send() enforces two structural invariants:

1. Recipient name validation via swarph_shared.validate_node_name — closes the framing-contagion class (Vector A peer-onboarding chatter, Vector B human-prompt shorthand).
2. Mesh-secrets out-of-band guard — best-effort regex sniff for credential-shaped content (PyPI tokens, Anthropic keys, GitHub tokens, JWTs, AWS keys). Hits raise MeshSecretLeakError BEFORE the POST. Operator escape hatch via skip_secret_check=True for legitimate prose mentioning credential shapes. CLAUDE.md "Mesh secrets out-of-band only" is non-negotiable; the guard catches obvious cases.

Phase rollout

Phase	Scope
0 (v0.0.1)	Typed substrate — Protocol + dataclasses + exceptions
1 (v0.1.0)	Gemini adapter + SwarphCall surface + caller convention import + JSON-mode harness + attribution hook
3 (v0.2.0)	MeshClient async wrapper + recipient validation + mesh-secrets guard
4 #2 (v0.3.0 — this release)	DeepSeek adapter — OpenAI-protocol-compatible, V4-Flash default, V4-Pro premium, V3 aliases preserved, reasoning_content kept as [reasoning] preamble
4 #3-#5	Claude (subscription) + OpenAI + Grok adapters (subsequent PRs)
5.5	swarph onboard + swarph ratify (lives in swarph-cli, depends on this)
5.7	swarph daemon + REPL drain coroutine (lives in swarph-cli)
6	(already done) PyPI publish
7	swarph-meshlm plugin (separate repo, this dep)
