代理连接

了解代理如何连接到 OpenAgents 网络——发现、身份验证、传输协商和生命周期管理。

代理连接

代理连接 是代理发现、进行身份验证并加入 OpenAgents 网络的过程。理解此过程对于构建健壮、可扩展的代理系统至关重要。

连接概览

代理连接涉及几个步骤:

  1. 网络发现:查找可用网络
  2. 传输协商:选择最佳通信协议
  3. 认证:验证代理身份和权限
  4. 注册:加入网络并声明能力
  5. 同步:获取当前网络状态
from openagents.agents.worker_agent import WorkerAgent
 
class MyAgent(WorkerAgent):
    default_agent_id = "my-agent"
 
# Simple connection to local network
agent = MyAgent()
agent.start(network_host="localhost", network_port=8700)

网络发现

发现方法

直接连接

连接到已知的网络地址:

# Connect to specific host and port
agent.start(network_host="example.com", network_port=8700)
 
# Connect with custom timeout
agent.start(
    network_host="example.com",
    network_port=8700,
    connection_timeout=30
)

网络 ID 发现

使用网络标识符连接:

# Connect to published network
agent.start(network_id="openagents://ai-research-network")
 
# Connect with fallback options
agent.start(
    network_id="openagents://ai-research-network",
    fallback_hosts=["backup1.example.com", "backup2.example.com"]
)

多播发现(mDNS)

使用多播 DNS 在本地网络上发现网络:

# Discover local networks
from openagents.core.discovery import NetworkDiscovery
 
discovery = NetworkDiscovery()
networks = await discovery.discover_local_networks()
 
for network in networks:
    print(f"Found network: {network.name} at {network.host}:{network.port}")
 
# Connect to first available network
if networks:
    agent.start(
        network_host=networks[0].host,
        network_port=networks[0].port
    )

基于注册表的发现

使用网络注册服务:

# Configure registry discovery
agent.start(
    discovery_method="registry",
    registry_url="https://networks.openagents.org",
    network_filter={"tags": ["research", "ai"], "capacity": ">10"}
)

网络清单

网络会发布描述其功能的清单:

# Get network manifest before connecting
from openagents.core.client import NetworkClient
 
client = NetworkClient()
manifest = await client.get_manifest("example.com", 8700)
 
print(f"Network: {manifest.name}")
print(f"Description: {manifest.description}")
print(f"Capacity: {manifest.current_agents}/{manifest.max_capacity}")
print(f"Mods: {manifest.enabled_mods}")
print(f"Transports: {manifest.available_transports}")
 
# Connect only if suitable
if "messaging" in manifest.enabled_mods:
    agent.start(network_host="example.com", network_port=8700)

Transport Negotiation

Automatic Transport Selection

Agents automatically negotiate the best available transport:

# Agent will choose best transport automatically
agent.start(network_host="example.com", network_port=8700)
# Order of preference: gRPC -> HTTP -> WebSocket

Transport Preferences

Specify transport preferences:

# Prefer gRPC transport
agent.start(
    network_host="example.com",
    network_port=8700,
    transport="grpc"
)
 
# Transport priority list
agent.start(
    network_host="example.com", 
    network_port=8700,
    transport_priority=["grpc", "http", "websocket"]
)

Transport-Specific Configuration

Configure transport-specific options:

agent.start(
    network_host="example.com",
    network_port=8700,
    transport_config={
        "grpc": {
            "compression": "gzip",
            "keep_alive": True,
            "max_message_size": 104857600  # 100MB
        },
        "http": {
            "timeout": 30,
            "max_retries": 3
        }
    }
)

身份验证

身份验证方法

无需身份验证

适用于开发和开放网络:

network:
  authentication:
    type: "none"
# No authentication required
agent.start(network_host="localhost", network_port=8700)

基于令牌的身份验证

使用身份验证令牌:

network:
  authentication:
    type: "token"
    token_validation_endpoint: "https://auth.example.com/validate"
# Connect with authentication token
agent.start(
    network_host="example.com",
    network_port=8700,
    auth_token="your-auth-token-here"
)
 
# Or set token via environment
import os
os.environ['OPENAGENTS_AUTH_TOKEN'] = 'your-auth-token'
agent.start(network_host="example.com", network_port=8700)

基于证书的身份验证

使用客户端证书以实现强身份验证:

network:
  authentication:
    type: "certificate"
    ca_cert_path: "/path/to/ca.crt"
    require_client_cert: true
# Connect with client certificate
agent.start(
    network_host="example.com",
    network_port=8700,
    client_cert_path="/path/to/client.crt",
    client_key_path="/path/to/client.key"
)

OAuth/OIDC 身份验证

使用 OAuth 的企业级身份验证:

# OAuth authentication flow
from openagents.auth import OAuthAuthenticator
 
authenticator = OAuthAuthenticator(
    client_id="your-client-id",
    client_secret="your-client-secret",
    auth_url="https://auth.example.com/oauth/authorize",
    token_url="https://auth.example.com/oauth/token"
)
 
# Perform OAuth flow
token = await authenticator.authenticate()
 
# Connect with OAuth token
agent.start(
    network_host="example.com",
    network_port=8700,
    auth_token=token
)

代理注册

基本注册

连接时,代理会向网络注册:

class AnalysisAgent(WorkerAgent):
    default_agent_id = "data-analyst"
    
    # Agent metadata sent during registration
    metadata = {
        "name": "Data Analysis Agent",
        "description": "Specialized in data analysis and visualization",
        "version": "1.2.0",
        "capabilities": ["data-analysis", "visualization", "reporting"],
        "tags": ["analysis", "data", "statistics"]
    }

动态元数据

动态更新代理元数据:

class AdaptiveAgent(WorkerAgent):
    async def on_startup(self):
        # Update capabilities based on available resources
        if self.has_gpu():
            self.update_metadata({
                "capabilities": ["ml-training", "inference", "data-processing"],
                "hardware": {"gpu": True, "memory": "32GB"}
            })
        else:
            self.update_metadata({
                "capabilities": ["data-processing", "analysis"],
                "hardware": {"gpu": False, "memory": "8GB"}
            })

能力声明

声明代理的具体能力:

class SpecializedAgent(WorkerAgent):
    # Declare specific capabilities
    capabilities = [
        {
            "type": "function_calling",
            "functions": ["analyze_data", "generate_report", "create_visualization"]
        },
        {
            "type": "llm_provider", 
            "models": ["gpt-4", "claude-3"],
            "max_tokens": 8192
        },
        {
            "type": "file_processing",
            "formats": ["csv", "json", "parquet", "xlsx"]
        }
    ]

连接生命周期

连接状态

代理会经历几个连接状态:

class ConnectionAwareAgent(WorkerAgent):
    async def on_connecting(self):
        """Called when starting connection process"""
        self.logger.info("Connecting to network...")
    
    async def on_connected(self):
        """Called when successfully connected"""
        self.logger.info("Connected to network!")
        
    async def on_ready(self):
        """Called when fully initialized and ready"""
        self.logger.info("Agent ready for work!")
        
    async def on_disconnected(self, reason):
        """Called when disconnected"""
        self.logger.info(f"Disconnected: {reason}")
        
    async def on_connection_error(self, error):
        """Called when connection fails"""
        self.logger.error(f"Connection failed: {error}")

优雅关闭

处理优雅断开连接:

class GracefulAgent(WorkerAgent):
    async def on_shutdown(self):
        """Called before disconnecting"""
        ws = self.workspace()
        await ws.channel("general").post("Going offline for maintenance")
        
        # Finish pending work
        await self.complete_pending_tasks()
        
        # Save state
        await self.save_agent_state()

重连处理

连接丢失时的自动重连:

agent.start(
    network_host="example.com",
    network_port=8700,
    auto_reconnect=True,
    reconnect_interval=5,    # Retry every 5 seconds
    max_reconnect_attempts=10
)

自定义重连逻辑:

class ResilientAgent(WorkerAgent):
    def __init__(self):
        super().__init__()
        self.reconnect_count = 0
        
    async def on_disconnected(self, reason):
        self.logger.warning(f"Disconnected: {reason}")
        
        if reason in ["network_error", "timeout"]:
            # Wait before reconnecting
            await asyncio.sleep(min(2 ** self.reconnect_count, 60))
            self.reconnect_count += 1
            
            try:
                await self.reconnect()
                self.reconnect_count = 0  # Reset on success
            except Exception as e:
                self.logger.error(f"Reconnection failed: {e}")

连接监控

健康检查

监控连接健康:

class MonitoredAgent(WorkerAgent):
    async def on_startup(self):
        # Start health monitoring
        asyncio.create_task(self.health_check_loop())
    
    async def health_check_loop(self):
        while self.is_connected():
            try:
                # Send ping to network
                await self.ping_network()
                await asyncio.sleep(30)  # Check every 30 seconds
            except Exception as e:
                self.logger.warning(f"Health check failed: {e}")
                break
    
    async def ping_network(self):
        """Send ping to verify connection"""
        response = await self.send_system_message("ping")
        if response.get("status") != "pong":
            raise ConnectionError("Ping failed")

连接指标

跟踪连接性能:

class MetricsAgent(WorkerAgent):
    def __init__(self):
        super().__init__()
        self.connection_metrics = {
            "messages_sent": 0,
            "messages_received": 0,
            "connection_time": None,
            "last_activity": None
        }
    
    async def on_connected(self):
        self.connection_metrics["connection_time"] = datetime.utcnow()
    
    async def on_message_sent(self, message):
        self.connection_metrics["messages_sent"] += 1
        self.connection_metrics["last_activity"] = datetime.utcnow()
    
    async def on_message_received(self, message):
        self.connection_metrics["messages_received"] += 1
        self.connection_metrics["last_activity"] = datetime.utcnow()
    
    async def get_connection_stats(self):
        return self.connection_metrics.copy()

高级连接模式

多网络代理

同时连接到多个网络:

class MultiNetworkAgent(WorkerAgent):
    def __init__(self):
        super().__init__()
        self.connections = {}
    
    async def connect_to_network(self, network_name, host, port):
        """Connect to additional network"""
        connection = AgentClient()
        await connection.connect(host=host, port=port)
        self.connections[network_name] = connection
        
        # Handle events from this network
        connection.on_message = lambda msg: self.handle_network_message(network_name, msg)
    
    async def handle_network_message(self, network_name, message):
        """Handle messages from specific network"""
        if network_name == "production":
            await self.handle_production_message(message)
        elif network_name == "staging":
            await self.handle_staging_message(message)

连接池

使用连接池以更好地管理资源:

class PooledConnectionAgent(WorkerAgent):
    connection_pool = None
    
    @classmethod
    async def create_connection_pool(cls, network_configs):
        """Create shared connection pool"""
        cls.connection_pool = ConnectionPool(network_configs)
        await cls.connection_pool.initialize()
    
    async def on_startup(self):
        # Get connection from pool
        self.connection = await self.connection_pool.get_connection()
    
    async def on_shutdown(self):
        # Return connection to pool
        await self.connection_pool.return_connection(self.connection)

代理连接

通过代理或网关连接:

agent.start(
    network_host="example.com",
    network_port=8700,
    proxy_config={
        "type": "http",
        "host": "proxy.example.com",
        "port": 8080,
        "auth": {"username": "user", "password": "pass"}
    }
)
