Pydantic AI
Gate every Pydantic AI tool call through LatchGate’s enforcement pipeline.
Prerequisites
Section titled “Prerequisites”- LatchGate running (
latchgate upor production deployment)
Install
Section titled “Install”pip install latchgate-pydantic-aiQuick start
Section titled “Quick start”from pydantic_ai import Agentfrom latchgate_pydantic_ai import LatchGateToolset
async def main(): toolset = await LatchGateToolset.create(gate_url="http://localhost:3000")
agent = Agent( "openai:gpt-4o", instructions="You have access to LatchGate-protected tools with full audit trail.", toolsets=[toolset], )
result = await agent.run("Fetch https://httpbin.org/get") print(result.output)How it works
Section titled “How it works”LatchGateToolset.create() discovers all registered LatchGate actions via the REST API and provides each one as a Pydantic AI tool with the action’s JSON Schema passed directly to parameters_json_schema. When the LLM calls a tool, the toolset routes it through LatchGateClient.execute() — the full enforcement pipeline runs transparently.
Filtering actions
Section titled “Filtering actions”toolset = await LatchGateToolset.create( gate_url="http://localhost:3000", include={"http_fetch", "github_read"}, exclude={"send_message"},)UDS transport (production)
Section titled “UDS transport (production)”from latchgate import LatchGateClient
client = LatchGateClient(socket="/run/latchgate/gate.sock", agent_id="my-pydantic-agent")toolset = await LatchGateToolset.create(client=client)Audit callback
Section titled “Audit callback”Use on_audit for programmatic access to receipt metadata after each successful execution:
def my_audit_handler(record): # record.action_id, record.receipt_id, record.trace_id, record.verification audit_log.store(record)
toolset = await LatchGateToolset.create( gate_url="http://localhost:3000", on_audit=my_audit_handler,)LATCHGATE_URL environment variable
Section titled “LATCHGATE_URL environment variable”You can set LATCHGATE_URL instead of passing gate_url explicitly:
# With LATCHGATE_URL=http://localhost:3000 set:toolset = await LatchGateToolset.create()Discovery timeout
Section titled “Discovery timeout”Control the HTTP timeout for the discovery phase (default 15 seconds):
toolset = await LatchGateToolset.create( gate_url="http://localhost:3000", discovery_timeout=10.0,)More details
