# Python SDK

Use nanobot programmatically — load config, run the agent, get results.

## Quick Start

```python
import asyncio
from nanobot import Nanobot

async def main():
    bot = Nanobot.from_config()
    result = await bot.run("What time is it in Tokyo?")
    print(result.content)

asyncio.run(main())
```

## API

### `Nanobot.from_config(config_path?, *, workspace?)`

Create a `Nanobot` from a config file.

| Param | Type | Default | Description |
|-------|------|---------|-------------|
| `config_path` | `str \| Path \| None` | `None` | Path to `config.json`. Defaults to `~/.nanobot/config.json`. |
| `workspace` | `str \| Path \| None` | `None` | Override workspace directory from config. |

Raises `FileNotFoundError` if an explicit path doesn't exist.

### `await bot.run(message, *, session_key?, hooks?)`

Run the agent once. Returns a `RunResult`.

| Param | Type | Default | Description |
|-------|------|---------|-------------|
| `message` | `str` | *(required)* | The user message to process. |
| `session_key` | `str` | `"sdk:default"` | Session identifier for conversation isolation. Different keys get independent history. |
| `hooks` | `list[AgentHook] \| None` | `None` | Lifecycle hooks for this run only. |

```python
# Isolated sessions — each user gets independent conversation history
await bot.run("hi", session_key="user-alice")
await bot.run("hi", session_key="user-bob")
```

### `RunResult`

| Field | Type | Description |
|-------|------|-------------|
| `content` | `str` | The agent's final text response. |
| `tools_used` | `list[str]` | Tool names invoked during the run. |
| `messages` | `list[dict]` | Raw message history (for debugging). |

## Hooks

Hooks let you observe or modify the agent loop without touching internals.

Subclass `AgentHook` and override any method:

| Method | When |
|--------|------|
| `before_iteration(ctx)` | Before each LLM call |
| `on_stream(ctx, delta)` | On each streamed token |
| `on_stream_end(ctx)` | When streaming finishes |
| `before_execute_tools(ctx)` | Before tool execution (inspect `ctx.tool_calls`) |
| `after_iteration(ctx, response)` | After each LLM response |
| `finalize_content(ctx, content)` | Transform final output text |

### Example: Audit Hook

```python
from nanobot.agent import AgentHook, AgentHookContext

class AuditHook(AgentHook):
    def __init__(self):
        self.calls = []

    async def before_execute_tools(self, ctx: AgentHookContext) -> None:
        for tc in ctx.tool_calls:
            self.calls.append(tc.name)
            print(f"[audit] {tc.name}({tc.arguments})")

hook = AuditHook()
result = await bot.run("List files in /tmp", hooks=[hook])
print(f"Tools used: {hook.calls}")
```

### Composing Hooks

Pass multiple hooks — they run in order, errors in one don't block others:

```python
result = await bot.run("hi", hooks=[AuditHook(), MetricsHook()])
```

Under the hood this uses `CompositeHook` for fan-out with error isolation.

### `finalize_content` Pipeline

Unlike the async methods (fan-out), `finalize_content` is a pipeline — each hook's output feeds the next:

```python
class Censor(AgentHook):
    def finalize_content(self, ctx, content):
        return content.replace("secret", "***") if content else content
```

## Full Example

```python
import asyncio
from nanobot import Nanobot
from nanobot.agent import AgentHook, AgentHookContext

class TimingHook(AgentHook):
    async def before_iteration(self, ctx: AgentHookContext) -> None:
        import time
        ctx.metadata["_t0"] = time.time()

    async def after_iteration(self, ctx, response) -> None:
        import time
        elapsed = time.time() - ctx.metadata.get("_t0", 0)
        print(f"[timing] iteration took {elapsed:.2f}s")

async def main():
    bot = Nanobot.from_config(workspace="/my/project")
    result = await bot.run(
        "Explain the main function",
        hooks=[TimingHook()],
    )
    print(result.content)

asyncio.run(main())
```
