Trajectory SDK

Generated Python client for the Trajectory API, with high-level workflows for uploading trajectories, telemetry, and runtime-backed benchmarks.

Install

pip install trajectory-sdk

Start here

Follow the public SDK onboarding guide to run one T Factory task and see its response, recorded reward, and completion. Continue with the GSM8K walkthrough: diagnose one task, evaluate and train with one task per split, then upload the larger benchmark and diagnose a subset before training. Evaluation and training use agent and benchmark names. The cookbook's example guide explains which recipe to use next for your benchmark's harness and grader.

Quick start

Set TRAJECTORY_API_KEY, then create a client:

from trajectory import Client

client = Client()
benchmarks = client.benchmarks.list(limit=10)

For task execution, follow the native benchmark harness and registration and image builds examples below.

SDK-owned API clients use a 600-second read/write/pool timeout and a 5-second connection timeout. Supplying http_client= inherits that client's timeouts, including a bare HTTPX client's 5-second default. An explicit Client(timeout=...) overrides the supplied client; a resource method's timeout= overrides that request. timeout=None disables timeouts. Retry counts are unchanged.

Blob store uploads through signed URLs default to a one-hour timeout (3,600 seconds), configured separately from API requests. Set upload_timeout=... on push(), start_push(), or start_task_diagnostic(), or timeout=... on put_files(). Pass None to disable blob store timeouts. These apply to individual HTTP operations against the blob store, not the total upload duration or signed-URL expiry.

The generated resource methods map directly to the public HTTP API. Benchmark submission and file-upload workflows are available from trajectory.lib.

Native benchmark harness

A task's run_command starts your program inside its runtime. This self-contained example uses an inline question and expected answer for clarity. Inputs and references may come from files or other sources; ensure the agent and its tools cannot access private reference data. input_messages is stored task metadata; the native runtime does not send it to the model or to your program's stdin. Your harness reads the input, calls the model, grades its answer, records the reward, and completes the trajectory before exiting. The SDK has no trajectory CLI executable.

Managed runs supply TRAJECTORY_API_KEY and TRAJECTORY_BASE_URL. Use Client() without embedding credentials in the image. trajectories.create() returns the precreated trajectory ID; pass that ID explicitly to model, reward, and completion calls. Model requests use the same client and API key, while the Backend resolves the model endpoint.

from trajectory import Client

client = Client()
question = "What is 2 + 2?"
expected_answer = "4"

tid = client.trajectories.create().tid

response = client.chat.completions.create(
    model="policy",
    messages=[{"role": "user", "content": question}],
    x_trajectory_id=tid,
)

model_answer = response.choices[0].message.content or ""
reward = float(model_answer.strip() == expected_answer)

client.trajectories.log_reward(
    tid,
    name="accuracy",
    value=reward,
)
client.trajectories.complete(tid, termination_reason="ENV_DONE")

Package this file and its dependencies in your Dockerfile. For example, copying it to /app/harness.py makes python /app/harness.py the task's run_command. A wrong answer gets reward zero and ENV_DONE. Process exit alone does not complete a trajectory.

Registration and image builds

Define a BenchmarkSpec named benchmark with your tasks, distinct train/test splits, and a runtime such as DockerfileBuild("Dockerfile"). With the Dockerfile and harness under the local benchmark/ directory, choose or create an agent, then register the benchmark and build its runtime. Replace YOUR_AGENT_NAME with that agent's name:

from pathlib import Path

from trajectory import Client
from trajectory.lib import push, wait_for_benchmark_images

client = Client()
result = push(client, benchmark, agent_name="YOUR_AGENT_NAME", root=Path("benchmark"))
images = wait_for_benchmark_images(client, result.bench_id)

The benchmark name comes from manifest.name: reusing a name under the same agent pushes a new version. Every new submission returns a new benchmark ID. Uploads do not accept a benchmark ID.

push() calls start_push() and waits for registration, returning a benchmark result with bench_id. Both upload files with progress and accept the same arguments. Image builds are off by default; pass build_images=True to include them.

Use start_push() when you want control over waiting: it uploads files before returning a BenchmarkOperation, while server processing continues. Call operation.result() to wait, or save operation.id and reconnect later with get_operation(client, operation.id). It is a regular Python function; it does not require await.

wait_for_benchmark_images() first calls client.benchmarks.images.build(bench_id) and then polls for completion. client.benchmarks.images.list(bench_id) only reads status. Once the runtime is ready, follow the GSM8K walkthrough's validation and evaluation steps; uploading does not execute the tasks. Start evaluation or training with agent_name and benchmark_name to select the latest version, or bench_id to select a specific version. Run this registration code with your organization's API key.
