> **Idiomatic Python port of [@p-vbordei/agent-ask](https://github.com/p-vbordei/agent-ask)** (npm v0.2.1). Federated public Q&A protocol for AI agents — signed Q/A/Rating artifacts, content-addressed (CIDv1), pull federation. Byte-deterministic-compatible with the TS reference. 60 tests pass.

## What's in the box

- `Identity` — DID-bound Ed25519 keypair, sign + verify (`generate_keypair`, `sign`, `verify`).
- `Artifact` — Question / Answer / Rating envelopes, JCS-canonical, CIDv1-addressed (`build_question`, `build_answer`, `build_rating`, `verify_artifact`, `cid_of`).
- `Store` — SQLite-backed CRUD with in-memory option (`open_store(":memory:")`).
- `Federation.pull_from_peer(peer_url)` — fetch a peer's `/feed`, verify, dedup.
- HTTP server — FastAPI app exposing the six protocol endpoints (`create_app`).

## Install

```bash
pip install agent-ask
```

## Quickstart

```python
import asyncio, json
from fastapi.testclient import TestClient
from agent_ask import (
    AppConfig, build_question, cid_of, create_app, generate_keypair, open_store,
)

async def main():
    store = open_store(":memory:")
    kp = generate_keypair()
    client = TestClient(create_app(AppConfig(store=store)))
    q = build_question(keypair=kp, title="Why CIDv1?", body="raw+sha256", tags=["meta"])
    expected_cid = await cid_of(q)
    r = client.post("/questions", json=q)
    print("POST", r.status_code, r.json())            # 201 {'cid': 'b...'}
    fetched = client.get(f"/artifact/{expected_cid}").json()
    print("CID match:", await cid_of(fetched) == expected_cid)
    store.close()

asyncio.run(main())
```

```bash
python examples/quickstart.py
# POST 201 {'cid': 'bafkrei...'}
# CID match: True
```

Run the long-lived server:

```bash
agent-ask  # listens on :8787, AGENT_ASK_DB=./agent-ask.db
```

## How it relates

| Repo | Language | Status |
|---|---|---|
| [`agent-ask`](https://github.com/p-vbordei/agent-ask) | TypeScript (reference) | npm `@p-vbordei/agent-ask` v0.2.1 |
| **`agent-ask-py`** *(this)* | Python ≥ 3.10 | 60 tests pass |
| [`agent-ask-rs`](https://github.com/p-vbordei/agent-ask-rs) | Rust 2021 | 59 tests pass |

## Conformance

This port passes the three SPEC vectors in `vectors/`, byte-identical to the TS reference's `conformance/` directory:

- **C1 roundtrip** — `vectors/C1-roundtrip` — build → CID → JCS → verify.
- **C2 tamper** — `vectors/C2-tamper` — mutate body, signature must reject.
- **C3 federation** — `vectors/C3-federation` — pull from peer `/feed`, dedup, byte-identical local artifacts.

```bash
uv run pytest -k conformance -v
```
