dashclaw 2.0.3
Python SDK for the DashClaw AI agent decision infrastructure platform
Requires Python: >=3.7

# DashClaw Python SDK: Agent Decision Infrastructure

Full-featured decision governance toolkit for the [DashClaw](https://github.com/ucsandman/DashClaw) platform. 177+ methods across 29+ categories. Zero dependencies, requires Python 3.7+.

DashClaw treats every agent action as a governed decision. The SDK provides decision recording, policy enforcement, assumption tracking, and compliance mapping.

## Install

```bash
pip install dashclaw
```

## Quick Start

```python
from dashclaw import DashClaw

claw = DashClaw(
    base_url="http://localhost:3000",  # or "https://your-app.vercel.app"
    api_key="your-api-key",
    agent_id="my-python-agent",
    agent_name="My Python Agent",
    auto_recommend="warn",  # Optional: off | warn | enforce
    hitl_mode="wait" # Optional: automatically wait for human approval
)

# Record an action
with claw.track(action_type="research", declared_goal="Explore Python SDK capabilities"):
    # ... do the work ...
    print("Working...")
```

## Real-Time Events

> **Note:** Real-time SSE events are currently available in the Node SDK only. Python SDK support is planned for a future release (requires an SSE client dependency such as `sseclient-py`). In the meantime, use polling via `wait_for_approval()`.

## Action Recording

Record governed decisions, track outcomes, and query decision history:

```python
# Record and auto-track an action with the context manager
with claw.track(action_type="research", declared_goal="Explore new API"):
    # ... do work ...
    pass

# Or create/update manually
res = claw.create_action("deploy", "Ship v2.0", risk_score=60, systems_touched=["prod-api"])
action_id = res["action_id"]
claw.update_outcome(action_id, status="completed", duration_ms=1200)

# Query actions
actions = claw.get_actions(status="completed", agent_id="my-agent")
action = claw.get_action(action_id)
trace = claw.get_action_trace(action_id)

# Get signals (anomalies, streaks, patterns)
signals = claw.get_signals()
```

**Methods:**

| Method | Description |
|--------|-------------|
| `create_action(action_type, declared_goal, **kwargs)` | Record a new action. Optional: risk_score, systems_touched, reversible |

## Agent Presence & Health

Monitor agent uptime and status in real-time. Use heartbeats to detect when an agent crashes or loses network connectivity.

```python
# Report presence manually
claw.heartbeat(status="busy", current_task_id="task_123")

# Start reporting presence automatically in a background thread
claw.start_heartbeat(interval=60)

| `start_heartbeat(interval=60, **kwargs)` | Start an automatic heartbeat timer in a background thread |
| `stop_heartbeat()` | Stop the automatic heartbeat timer |

## Loops & Assumptions

Decision integrity primitives: track open loops, register assumptions, and detect drift.

```python
# Register an open loop
loop = claw.register_open_loop(action_id, "dependency", "Waiting for DB migration")
claw.resolve_open_loop(loop["loop"]["id"], status="resolved", resolution="Migration complete")
loops = claw.get_open_loops(status="open")

# Register and validate assumptions
assumption = claw.register_assumption(action_id, "API rate limit is 1000 req/min")
claw.validate_assumption(assumption["assumption"]["id"], validated=True)

# Get drift report (invalidated assumptions)
drift = claw.get_drift_report(agent_id="my-agent")

## Dashboard Data (Decisions, Goals, Content, Interactions)

Record learning decisions, goals, content, and interaction logs:

```python
# Record a learning decision
claw.record_decision("Chose retry strategy over circuit breaker", reasoning="Lower latency impact")

# Create a goal
claw.create_goal("Reduce p99 latency to <200ms", priority="high")

| `record_interaction(summary, **kwargs)` | Record an interaction/relationship event |

## Session Handoffs

Capture session context for seamless handoffs between sessions or agents:

```python
# Create a handoff
claw.create_handoff("Finished data pipeline setup. Next: add signal checks.", context={"pipeline_id": "p_123"})

# Get handoffs
handoffs = claw.get_handoffs(limit=5)

| `get_latest_handoff()` | Get the most recent handoff for this agent |

## Identity Binding (Security)

DashClaw can enforce cryptographic signatures for actions (recommended for verified agents). To enable signing in your Python agent:

1. Install the `cryptography` library: `pip install cryptography`
2. Generate an RSA keypair using `node scripts/generate-agent-keys.mjs <agent-id>` from the DashClaw repo.
3. Pass the private key to the constructor:

```python
from dashclaw import DashClaw
from cryptography.hazmat.primitives import serialization

# Load your private key (from env or file)
with open("private_key.pem", "rb") as key_file:
    private_key = serialization.load_pem_private_key(
        key_file.read(),
        password=None
    )

claw = DashClaw(
    ...,
    private_key=private_key
)
```

## Human-in-the-Loop (HITL) Governance

When `hitl_mode="wait"` is set, any action that triggers a "Require Approval" policy will automatically pause.

```python
try:
    claw.create_action(action_type="deploy", declared_goal="Ship to production")
    # Agent automatically pauses here until approved in the dashboard
except ApprovalDeniedError:
    print("Human operator denied the action!")
```

Manual approval API access is also available when building operator tooling:

```python
claw.approve_action("action_123", decision="allow", reasoning="Change window approved")
pending = claw.get_pending_approvals(limit=25)
```

**Methods:**

| Method | Description |
|--------|-------------|
| `wait_for_approval(action_id, timeout=300, interval=5)` | Poll for human approval of a pending action |
| `approve_action(action_id, decision, reasoning=None)` | Approve or deny an action. Decision: "allow" or "deny" |
| `get_pending_approvals(limit=20, offset=0)` | Get actions pending human approval |

## Behavior Guard

Guard is the heart of DashClaw. Every action is checked against policies before execution.

Check actions against policies and fetch guard audit history:

```python
# Check an action against policies
decision = claw.guard({"action_type": "deploy", "risk_score": 80}, include_signals=True)
print(decision["decision"])  # allow | block | require_approval

# Fetch recent guard decisions
decisions = claw.get_guard_decisions(decision="block", limit=50)
```

**Methods:**

| Method | Description |
|--------|-------------|
| `guard(context, include_signals=False)` | Check action context against active policies |
| `get_guard_decisions(decision=None, limit=20, offset=0, agent_id=None)` | Get guard decision history. Filter by decision type |

### Compliance & Governance Patterns

DashClaw's guard + action recording pipeline maps directly to compliance controls.

**SOC 2 CC6.1: Logical Access Controls**
```python
# Before any high-risk operation, enforce policy
guard_result = claw.guard({
    "action_type": "database_write",
    "risk_score": 85,
    "systems_touched": ["production_db"],
    "reversible": False,
    "declared_goal": "Drop legacy user table"
})

if guard_result["decision"] == "block":
    # SOC 2 control satisfied: unauthorized action prevented
    print("Policy blocked:", guard_result.get("reasons"))
    return

# Decision is governed. Record with full lineage
result = claw.create_action(
    action_type="database_write",
    declared_goal="Drop legacy user table",
    risk_score=85,
    reversible=False,
    authorization_scope="admin-approved"
)
action_id = result["action_id"]

# Register the assumption this decision relies on
claw.register_assumption(
    action_id=action_id,
    assumption="Legacy table has zero active references",
    basis="Schema dependency scan completed 2h ago"
)
```

**EU AI Act Article 14: Human Oversight**
```python
# require_approval forces human-in-the-loop
result = claw.guard({
    "action_type": "customer_communication",
    "risk_score": 60,
    "declared_goal": "Send pricing update to 500 customers"
})

if result["decision"] == "require_approval":
    # Create action in pending state, wait for human approval
    action = claw.create_action(
        action_type="customer_communication",
        declared_goal="Send pricing update to 500 customers",
        status="pending"
    )
    # Approval queue at /approvals shows this to operators
```

**ISO 42001: AI Decision Accountability**
```python
# Full decision lineage: guard â†’ action â†’ assumptions â†’ outcome
result = claw.create_action(
    action_type="data_processing",
    declared_goal="Rebuild customer segmentation model",
    risk_score=45,
    systems_touched=["ml-pipeline", "customer-db"]
)
action_id = result["action_id"]

claw.register_assumption(
    action_id=action_id,
    assumption="Customer data is current as of today",
    basis="CRM sync completed at 09:00 UTC"
)

# Later: validate or invalidate assumptions
claw.validate_assumption(assumption_id, validated=True)

# Decision integrity signals auto-detect when assumptions drift
signals = claw.get_signals()
# â†’ Returns 'assumption_drift' if too many invalidated
```

### Auto Token Tracking with `wrap_client()`

Wrap your Anthropic or OpenAI client so token usage is automatically reported after every call:

```python
from anthropic import Anthropic
from dashclaw import DashClaw

claw = DashClaw(base_url="http://localhost:3000", agent_id="my-agent", api_key="...")
anthropic = claw.wrap_client(Anthropic())

msg = anthropic.messages.create(
    model="claude-sonnet-4-20250514",
    max_tokens=1024,
    messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Hello"}],
)
# Token usage auto-reported to DashClaw
```

**OpenAI:**
```python
from openai import OpenAI

openai_client = claw.wrap_client(OpenAI())

chat = openai_client.chat.completions.create(
    model="gpt-4o",
    messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Hello"}],
)
# Token usage auto-reported to DashClaw
```

Streaming calls (where the response lacks `.usage`) are safely ignored â€” no errors, just no reporting.

## User Preferences

Track observations, preferences, moods, and approaches to learn user patterns over time:

```python
# Log an observation about the user
claw.log_observation("User prefers concise answers over detailed explanations")

# Set a learned preference
claw.set_preference("code_style: functional over OOP")

# Log user mood/energy for this session
claw.log_mood("focused", energy="high", context="morning standup")

# Track an approach and whether it worked
claw.track_approach("Break large PRs into stacked diffs", succeeded=True)

# Get a summary of all preference data
summary = claw.get_preference_summary()

# Get tracked approaches with success/fail counts
approaches = claw.get_approaches(limit=10)

print(result["redacted"])   # Text with secrets masked
print(result["findings"])   # List of detected patterns

if result["recommendation"] == "block":
    print(f"Blocked: {result['findings_count']} injection patterns")
elif result["recommendation"] == "warn":
    print(f"Warning: {', '.join(result['categories'])} detected")
```

## Agent Pairing

Securely pair an agent to a DashClaw instance using public-key cryptography:

```python
from cryptography.hazmat.primitives.asymmetric import rsa
from cryptography.hazmat.primitives import serialization

# Generate a keypair
private_key = rsa.generate_private_key(public_exponent=65537, key_size=2048)
public_pem = private_key.public_key().public_bytes(
    serialization.Encoding.PEM,
    serialization.PublicFormat.SubjectPublicKeyInfo,
).decode()

# Create a pairing request (operator approves in the dashboard)
pairing = claw.create_pairing(public_pem, algorithm="RSASSA-PKCS1-v1_5", agent_name="my-agent")
pairing_id = pairing["pairing"]["id"]
