Agent Evidence Observer (prototype)

PyPI Downloads (PePy)

Record brokered agent writes and check selected native framework reports offline.

Use it in agent harnesses and evaluation pipelines that need replayable action records or a consumer gate for retained reports.

Install the root package: pip install agent-evidence-observer==0.1.0.

Quick start

Run the demo from the released package. You need Python 3.12 or later and uv; there is nothing to clone.

uvx agent-evidence-observer==0.1.0 demo ./sample-run
uvx agent-evidence-observer==0.1.0 verify ./sample-run

The two commands print:

{"noDetectedGap": "true", "retryReplayed": "true", "status": "verified", "witnessScope": "PEER"}
{"noDetectedGap": "true", "status": "verified", "witnessScope": "PEER"}

sample-run/ now holds the signed packet, the history, the public keys and the file tree. The demo writes a file, retries it, and the retry returns the first effect. noDetectedGap means the broker's file-tree snapshots found no change it did not make. It does not mean every agent effect was seen. To run from a pinned source checkout instead, see Run the source quick start.

Status

The root distribution is version 0.1.0. Every record says witnessScope: PEER: the witness key runs on the same host under the same operator, so the records show what this broker saw, not what an independent observer saw. Linux runs can launch a fixed probe, or a Python script given to run-workload, under bubblewrap with only the broker's socket exposed. launch-agent runs an unmodified agent in docker or apptainer and records, from outside it, every program it ran and every file it changed. It does not use bubblewrap, which cannot start on hosts with apparmor_restrict_unprivileged_userns=1 such as Ubuntu 24.04. agent-evidence-witness runs a separately operated witness: a record it co-signs verifies as EXTERNAL when the reader pins a different operator for the witness key. It needs the witness extra, which is not yet in a released wheel.
