Visceral Python SDK — runtime optimization layer for AI agents

Visceral Python SDK

visceral — runtime optimization layer for AI agents. Wrap your LLM client and Visceral observes traffic, finds wasted work, and proves a cheaper call is safe before making it. Fails open: if Visceral is unreachable, your agent runs exactly as before.

Install

pip install "visceral-ai[openai]"   # or [anthropic], [google], [all-providers]

Distribution name is visceral-ai; the import package is visceral. Requires Python 3.10+.

Usage

from openai import OpenAI
from visceral import wrap

client = wrap(OpenAI(), agent_id="my-agent")   # same client back, now instrumented

Authentication

You hold exactly one secret: the workspace API key (vsc_...), from your workspace's Settings page in the dashboard (or from Visceral during onboarding). Set it as VISCERAL_API_KEY, or pass api_key= to wrap(); set VISCERAL_BASE_URL only if self-hosting. The key both authenticates the SDK and selects the workspace your traffic lands in — there is no separate user or org credential. One process serves one workspace: wrap every client in a process with the same key.

Prompt and response text never leaves your process unencrypted: content is stripped or AES-256-GCM-encrypted before export with a per-workspace encryption key the SDK fetches automatically — you never handle it — and spans that cannot be redacted are dropped, never sent.
