vouch-langchain 0.1.0

LangChain tool that issues Vouch Credentials to authorize AI agent tool calls.

vouch-langchain

A LangChain tool that issues Vouch Credentials, so a LangChain agent can cryptographically authorize the tool calls it makes.

Each signed call carries a W3C Verifiable Credential with an eddsa-jcs-2022 Data Integrity proof, and optionally a delegation chain back to an accountable human principal.

Install

pip install vouch-langchain

This pulls in vouch-protocol[langchain].

Configure

The tool reads two environment variables:

• VOUCH_PRIVATE_KEY the agent's private key (JWK JSON string).
• VOUCH_DID the agent's DID, e.g. did:web:agent.example.com.

Use

from vouch_langchain import VouchSignerTool

tool = VouchSignerTool()  # reads VOUCH_PRIVATE_KEY / VOUCH_DID
credential_json = tool._run(
    action="read",
    target="https://api.example.com",
    resource="customer:123",
)
# Attach credential_json as a 'Vouch-Credential' header on your request.

Add tool to any LangChain agent's tool list. The agent calls it before an authenticated request and forwards the credential to your service.

Verify on the receiving side

from vouch import Verifier
ok, passport = Verifier.verify_credential(received_json, public_key=agent_pubkey)
