terse-sdk 0.1.3

Python SDK for building jobs on the Terse platform.

terse-sdk

Python SDK for building jobs on the Terse platform.

Most users should start with terse-cli, which scaffolds a project and generates terse_generated.py helpers for the currently supported trigger and skill surface.

Installation

python -m pip install terse-sdk

Runtime API

The SDK provides:

• Terse for runtime job registration
• @app.job(...) for declaring jobs
• TerseAgent for agent runs and deterministic tool execution
• typed event models such as CronJobInputEvent
• hand-written request/response models exported from terse_sdk

Quick Start

from terse_sdk import CronJobInputEvent, EventType, Terse, TerseAgent

app = Terse()

@app.job(
    name="example-job",
    triggers=[],
    skills=[],
)
def example(event: CronJobInputEvent, agent: TerseAgent) -> None:
    for stream_event in agent.run(
        "Answer with one short, cute sentence about this cron job.",
        event,
    ):
        if stream_event.type == EventType.FINAL_OUTPUT:
            print(stream_event.finalOutput)

example(
    CronJobInputEvent(
        event_type="manual",
        formatted_content="Manual local run",
        debug_log="README example",
    ),
    TerseAgent(),
)

That example is intentionally self-contained. In a real Terse project, trigger and skill configs normally come from the generated helpers in terse_generated.py, not from manually constructing low-level DTOs.

Generated Helpers

The SDK package does not generate project helpers by itself.

If you scaffold a project with terse init and then run terse generate, your project gets src/terse_generated.py with the currently supported helpers:

• Schedule.cron(...)
• Attio.skill(...)
• Snowflake.skill(...)
• deterministic wrappers on agent.tools.attio and agent.tools.snowflake

Example inside a generated project:

from terse_generated import Schedule, Snowflake, TerseAgent
from terse_sdk import CronJobInputEvent, Terse

app = Terse()

@app.job(
    name="snowflake-job",
    triggers=[Schedule.cron("0 9 * * 1")],
    skills=[Snowflake.skill()],
)
def example(event: CronJobInputEvent, agent: TerseAgent) -> None:
    result = agent.tools.snowflake.execute_query(query="select current_date()")
    print(result)

Environment Variables

• TERSE_API_KEY: required for agent runs and deterministic tool execution
• TERSE_BACKEND_URL: optional backend override for local development
• TERSE_FRONTEND_URL: optional frontend override for local development

Recommended Path

If you want the full project workflow, install the CLI instead:

python -m pip install terse-cli
terse init my-terse-job
