Placement & System Setup

Extract your delivery bundle (vectrace-sdk-v1.0.0.zip). Place the compiled bare-metal dynamic library matching your host system directly into your project root alongside your application code.

# macOS (Apple Silicon ARM64)
cp libvectrace.dylib ./libvectrace.dylib

# Linux (x86_64 VPS / Cloud Server)
cp libvectrace.so ./libvectrace.so
02.

Multi-Language Quickstart

Vectrace C11 core executes natively with zero external dependencies. Choose your language below to inspect FFI initialization and HMAC license validation:

from vectrace_sdk import VectraceSDK
import numpy as np

# Initialize zero-allocation C11 engine with your HMAC license key
sdk = VectraceSDK(
    client_id="node_01",
    license_key="VEC-DEVELOPER-1724600000-A1B2C3D4",
    db_path="vectrace_state.db"
)

# Stream 512-sample float32 PCM audio chunk (<100µs latency)
pcm_chunk = np.zeros(512, dtype=np.float32)
telemetry = sdk.process_and_stamp_chunk(pcm_chunk)

print(f"Stamped Sequence #{telemetry['sequence_id']} | Hash: {telemetry['c2pa_hash_head'][:16]}...")
03.

Agentic Handoff Boundary Verification

Intercept and cryptographically stamp state handoff payloads passing between multi-agent nodes (e.g., Agent_OrderLookupAgent_RefundPolicy) in under 100 microseconds.

from vectrace_sdk import VectraceSDK

sdk = VectraceSDK(
    client_id="agent_gateway",
    license_key="VEC-DEVELOPER-1724600000-A1B2C3D4",
    db_path="state.db"
)

# Intercept handoff payload passed from Agent_OrderLookup to Agent_RefundPolicy
handoff_payload = b'{"order_id": "10492", "status": "verified"}'
telemetry = sdk.process_and_stamp_chunk(handoff_payload)

# Cryptographically proves what crossed the boundary in <100µs
print(f"Handoff Hash: {telemetry['c2pa_hash_head']}")
04.

Vectrace CLI & Terminal Diagnostics

Use the built-in CLI commands to inspect historical ledger entries, audit C2PA proof chains, or execute the local latency gauntlet.

# Inspect CLI Options & Engine Status
$ python3 -m vectrace_sdk --help
# Audit Specific Sequence Proof in SQLite DB
$ python3 -m vectrace_sdk audit --db vectrace_state.db --seq 1
# Execute Bare-Metal Latency & Tamper Attack Suite
$ python3 demo_local_gauntlet.py
05.

Core Python SDK Method Reference

Key methods available on the VectraceSDK instance:

process_and_stamp_chunk(data_buffer: bytes | np.ndarray) → dict

Passes a 512-sample float32 PCM audio array or raw payload bytes through the native C engine. Stamps the chunk with an HMAC SHA-256 manifest and returns telemetry (sequence_id, c2pa_hash_head).

verify_historical_audit_head(sequence_id: int, expected_hash_head: str) → bool

Queries the SQLite audit trail (vectrace_state.db) to cryptographically verify if a historical sequence ID matches the expected hash head without tampering.

start_stream_session() / stop_stream_session()

Acquires or releases concurrent multi-channel agent stream locks under your active runtime license quota (e.g. 1 active stream for Developer Node, 18 streams for Growth Cluster).
