@agent-inspect/adapter-sdk

Author third-party AgentInspect framework adapters with conformance helpers.

Support level: Beta — see SUPPORT-LEVELS.md. Network behavior: NETWORK-BEHAVIOR.md.

When to use

• Building a community or internal adapter package
• Validating metadata-only capture and privacy contracts

When not to use

• Application tracing (use agent-inspect or an existing adapter)

Install

npm install @agent-inspect/adapter-sdk agent-inspect

Example

import { createAdapterRegistration, runAdapterConformance } from "@agent-inspect/adapter-sdk";

export const registration = createAdapterRegistration({
  id: "my-framework",
  // ...
});

Minimal third-party adapter example

See examples/adapter-sdk/minimal-source-adapter for a dependency-free fake framework source that registers adapter metadata, captures a local metadata-only trace, and runs runAdapterConformance.

Custom renderer example

See examples/adapter-sdk/custom-renderer for a standalone TraceRenderer that renders a metadata-only markdown summary from a persisted run tree and composes with renderWithSafety.

Custom transform example

See examples/adapter-sdk/custom-transform for a standalone TraceTransform that normalizes a vendor-specific event shape into standard persisted-event conventions with warnings for unmapped input.

Privacy

• SDK helpers enforce local-first patterns; adapters must not upload by default
• Use the Adapter SDK privacy checklist to document capture, persistence, redaction, and export-review behavior before publishing or proposing registry inclusion.
