Validation

  • Use the Yavira download entry.
  • Review SKILL.md after the package is downloaded.
  • Confirm the extracted package contains the expected setup assets.

Install with your agent

Agent handoff

Hand the extracted package to your coding agent with a concrete install brief instead of figuring it out manually.

  1. Download the package from Yavira.
  2. Extract it into a folder your agent can access.
  3. Paste one of the prompts below and point your agent at the extracted folder.
New install

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.

Upgrade existing

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.

keep-protocol

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.

Preferred: MCP Tools (Fast Path)

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

MCP Examples

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).

MCP Setup

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" } } } }

Fallback: Code Generation

If MCP tools are not available, generate Python code using the SDK:

Installation

# Server (Docker) docker run -d -p 9009:9009 ghcr.io/clcrawford-dev/keep-server:latest # Python SDK pip install keep-protocol

Discovery

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", ...]

Agent-to-Agent Routing

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)

Memory Barter

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>" )

Key Features
