ag2-network-governance

ag2-network-governance is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from ag2ai/ag2-skills. It costs 264 tokens per session (7,319 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A governance toolkit for AG2 networks, where multiple software agents communicate through a central hub. It defines agent identities, communication rules, limits, authentication, routing, and task observation.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to restrict agent-to-agent access, limit inboxes or channel behavior, authenticate agents, customize routing, and monitor network tasks.
Why use it?
It gives one place to control who can communicate, how channels behave, and which policies apply to each agent.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

ag2-network-governance scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 11d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 558 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

AG2 Network — Governance

Everything hub-side: identity, per-agent rules, expectations, audit, and task observation. The hub is the single source of truth — every send goes through it, every observation reads from it, every policy is checked there.

Prerequisite: read ag2-network-quickstart first. This skill assumes you know Hub.open, Passport, Resume, the channel lifecycle, and the agent_client.register(...) flow.

When to use

Load this skill when the user needs to:

  • Limit who can talk to whom (access / AccessBlock)
  • Declare a token-bucket rate intent (limits.rate / RateBlock) — stored on the rule but not enforced by the in-process hub
  • Cap inbox size to prevent flooding (limits.inbox / InboxBlock) — and get an early-warning signal before the cap (on_inbox_pressure / high_water)
  • Set channel TTL defaults, concurrency caps, or delegation depth (limits / LimitsBlock)
  • Plug in custom access / routing logic — JWT scopes, per-tenant quotas, federation (HubArbiter / RuleBasedArbiter)
  • Authenticate agents at registration (AuthAdapter)
  • Tune the channel-close timing (acks_within, reply_within, max_silence, turn_within)
  • Read or query the audit log for compliance — or stream live state changes to metrics / alerting (HubListener)
  • Add a custom periodic task to the hub (register_sweeper)
  • Build a capability track record on each agent (Resume.observed)
  • Route based on which agents have demonstrably done a task (e.g. "send to whichever researcher has the lowest p50_latency_ms")

Identity — what every agent carries

Three dataclasses describe an agent on the network. The tenant supplies most fields; the hub stamps the rest.

from ag2.network import Passport, Resume, ResumeExample

passport = Passport(
    name="alice",                # required, unique within the hub
    owner="acme",                # optional, tenant id for multi-tenant deployments
    model="claude-sonnet-4-6",   # optional, surfaces on peer-lookup results
)

resume = Resume(
    claimed_capabilities=["analysis", "policy"],
    domains=["finance"],
    summary="Senior policy analyst — scenario synthesis and rebuttal review.",
    examples=[ResumeExample(title="Q3 risk brief", note="…")],
)

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
