Signed Protobuf packets over TCP for AI agent-to-agent communication. Now with MCP tools for sub-second latency! Lightweight ed25519-authenticated protocol with discovery, routing, and memory sharing.

Hand the extracted package to your coding agent with a concrete install brief instead of figuring it out manually.
I downloaded a skill package from Yavira. Read SKILL.md from the extracted folder and install it by following the included instructions. Then review README.md for any prerequisites, environment setup, or post-install checks. Tell me what you changed and call out any manual steps you could not complete.
I downloaded an updated skill package from Yavira. Read SKILL.md from the extracted folder, compare it with my current installation, and upgrade it while preserving any custom configuration unless the package docs explicitly say otherwise. Then review README.md for any prerequisites, environment setup, or post-install checks. Summarize what changed and any follow-up checks I should run.
Lightweight signed TCP + Protobuf protocol for agent coordination. Agents send Packets to a TCP endpoint (default localhost:9009). Unsigned or invalid sig = silent drop. Valid ed25519 sig = routed, logged, replied.
If your environment has keep-protocol MCP configured, use these tools directly for sub-60ms latency: ToolPurposekeep_send(dst, body)Send a signed packet to another agentkeep_discover(query)Get server info, stats, or agent listkeep_discover_agents()List all connected agent identitieskeep_listen(timeout)Register and receive incoming messageskeep_ensure_server()Auto-start server if not running
Send a message to another agent: Use tool: keep_send dst: "bot:alice" body: "Hello from MCP!" Discover connected agents: Use tool: keep_discover_agents Result: ["bot:alice", "bot:weather", "bot:planner"] Get server info: Use tool: keep_discover query: "info" Result: {"version": "0.5.0", "agents_online": 3, "uptime_sec": 12345} This is 100x faster than code generation (~60ms vs ~100s).
pip install keep-protocol[mcp] Add to your MCP config: { "mcpServers": { "keep-protocol": { "command": "keep-mcp", "env": { "KEEP_HOST": "localhost", "KEEP_PORT": "9009", "KEEP_SRC": "bot:my-agent" } } } }
If MCP tools are not available, generate Python code using the SDK:
# Server (Docker) docker run -d -p 9009:9009 ghcr.io/clcrawford-dev/keep-server:latest # Python SDK pip install keep-protocol
Find out what's running and who's connected: from keep import KeepClient client = KeepClient("localhost", 9009) info = client.discover("info") # {"version": "0.5.0", "agents_online": 3, ...} agents = client.discover_agents() # ["bot:alice", "bot:weather", ...]
Send messages directly to other connected agents: with KeepClient(src="bot:planner") as client: client.send(body="register", dst="server", wait_reply=True) client.send(body="coordinate task", dst="bot:weather-agent") client.listen(lambda p: print(f"From {p.src}: {p.body}"), timeout=30)
Share institutional knowledge between agents using the scar field: client.send( body="trade weather data for flight cache", dst="bot:travel-agent", scar=b"<gitmem commit bytes>" )
