# Hashgraph Online Standards AI Agent Kit
[](https://opensource.org/licenses/Apache-2.0)
# **_This SDK is currently in alpha, use at your own risk._**
A toolkit built with TypeScript and LangChain for creating AI agents that communicate trustlessly on the Hedera network using the [HCS-10 AI Agent Communication Standard](https://hashgraphonline.com/docs/standards/hcs-10/).
## Quick Start
```bash
npm install @hashgraphonline/standards-agent-kit
```
## Documentation
For complete documentation, examples, and API references, visit:
- [Standards Agent Kit Documentation](https://hashgraphonline.com/docs/libraries/standards-agent-kit/)
## Features
- **HCS-10 Compliance:** Built on top of the official `@hashgraphonline/standards-sdk` for standard compliance.
- **Agent Lifecycle Management:** Create, register, and manage HCS-10 agents on Hedera.
- **Trustless Communication:** Facilitates secure peer-to-peer communication setup between agents via Hedera Consensus Service (HCS).
- **LangChain Integration:** Provides ready-to-use LangChain `StructuredTool`s for common agent actions.
- **Message Handling:** Send and receive messages over HCS, including support for large messages via HCS-3 inscriptions.
- **Connection Monitoring:** Automatically monitor inbound topics for connection requests and handle them.
- **Configurable:** Set Hedera network, credentials, and registry via environment variables.
## Supported Tools
- **RegisterAgentTool**: Create and register a new HCS-10 agent
- **SendMessageTool**: Send messages to a topic with optional response monitoring
- **ConnectionTool**: Monitor inbound topics for connection requests
- **FindRegistrationsTool**: Search for agent registrations by criteria
- **InitiateConnectionTool**: Start a connection with another agent
- **ListConnectionsTool**: View existing agent connections
- **ConnectionMonitorTool**: Monitor connection status changes
- **ManageConnectionRequestsTool**: Handle incoming connection requests
- **AcceptConnectionRequestTool**: Accept pending connection requests
- **ListUnapprovedConnectionRequestsTool**: View pending requests
## Running Demos
The Agent Kit includes demo implementations that showcase various features. Follow these steps to run them:
1. Clone the repository
```bash
git clone https://github.com/hashgraph/standards-agent-kit.git
cd standards-agent-kit
```
2. Install dependencies
```bash
npm install --legacy-peer-deps
```
3. Set up environment variables
```bash
cp .env.sample .env
```
4. Edit the `.env` file with your Hedera credentials:
```
HEDERA_ACCOUNT_ID=0.0.xxxxxx
HEDERA_PRIVATE_KEY=302e020100300506032b6570...
HEDERA_NETWORK=testnet
REGISTRY_URL=https://moonscape.tech
OPENAI_API_KEY=sk-xxxxxxxxxx # For LangChain demos
```
5. Run the demos:
```bash
# Run the CLI demo
npm run cli-demo
# Run the LangChain interactive demo
npm run langchain-demo
# Run the Standards Expert Agent
npm run standards-expert
```
### Demo Descriptions
#### CLI Demo
The CLI demo provides an interactive menu to:
- Register new agents
- List managed agents
- Initiate and monitor connections
- Send and receive messages between agents
#### LangChain Interactive Demo
The LangChain demo demonstrates how to:
- Integrate Standards Agent Kit tools with LangChain
- Create AI agents that communicate over Hedera
- Process natural language requests into agent actions
- Handle the full lifecycle of agent-to-agent communication
#### Standards Expert Agent
A specialized agent that runs on a small local LLM to provide expertise about Hedera Standards:
- Uses Llama 3 8B or similar for inference
- Answers questions about standards implementation
- Provides guidance on Standards SDK and Agent Kit usage
- See [Standards Expert README](examples/standards-expert/README.md) for details
## Basic Usage
```typescript
import { initializeHCS10Client } from '@hashgraphonline/standards-agent-kit';
import dotenv from 'dotenv';
dotenv.config();
async function setup() {
const { hcs10Client, tools, stateManager } = await initializeHCS10Client({
clientConfig: {
operatorId: process.env.HEDERA_ACCOUNT_ID,
operatorKey: process.env.HEDERA_PRIVATE_KEY,
network: 'testnet',
useEncryption: false
},
createAllTools: true,
monitoringClient: true
});
// Access tools
const { registerAgentTool, initiateConnectionTool, sendMessageTool } = tools;
// Use tools as needed
// ...
}
setup();
```

## Standards Expert Agent
The Standards Expert Agent is a specialized AI agent that runs on a small local LLM and can answer questions about the Hedera Standards SDK. It uses the HCS-10 protocol to communicate with clients and provides information about how to use the Standards SDK and Standards Agent Kit.
### Features
- Runs on a small local LLM (Llama 3 8B or similar)
- Focused knowledge on Hedera Standards SDK
- Answers questions about HCS-1, HCS-2, HCS-3, etc.
- Provides implementation guidance for standards
- Self-contained with minimal external dependencies
### Installation
```bash
# Clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/hashgraph/standards-agent-kit.git
cd standards-agent-kit
# Install dependencies
npm install
# Set up the environment
npx ts-node src/agents/standards-expert/cli.ts setup
# Download a Llama 3 model in GGUF format
mkdir -p models
# Download the model from https://huggingface.co/TheBloke/Llama-3-8B-Instruct-GGUF
# and place it in the models directory
# Process documentation (optional)
npx ts-node src/agents/standards-expert/cli.ts process-docs -d /path/to/docs
# Start the agent
npx ts-node src/agents/standards-expert/cli.ts start
```
### Using with PM2
For production deployment, you can use PM2 to keep the agent running:
```bash
# Generate PM2 ecosystem file
npx ts-node src/agents/standards-expert/cli.ts generate-pm2
# Install PM2 globally
npm install -g pm2
# Start with PM2
pm2 start ecosystem.config.js
```
