DingDawg Governance SDK — Universal governance layer for AI agents

Any agent. Any framework. Governed by default.

What it does

Every AI agent action — writing files, calling APIs, sending emails, modifying data — executes without a receipt. You don't know what ran, what was blocked, or why.

DingDawg Governance adds a pre-execution gate that:

• Blocks policy violations before they execute — fail-closed, not fail-open

• Generates LNN causal traces — interpretable reasoning chain for every decision

• Issues IPFS audit proofs — tamper-evident receipts pinned to distributed storage

• Supports rollback — every governed action carries enough context to reverse it

• Assigns @handle identities — agents get a governed identity (@billing-agent, @hr-screener) with a full action history tied to that handle

Regulated niches

Built for frameworks where AI agent decisions carry legal weight:

Install

npm install dingdawg-governance

pip install dingdawg-loop

Quick start — Claude Code (MCP config)

Add to ~/.claude/mcp.json or project-level .mcp.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "dingdawg-governance": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["dingdawg-governance"],
      "env": {
        "DINGDAWG_API_KEY": "your-api-key"
      }
    }
  }
}

Without an API key, all tools work locally. Receipts stored at ~/.dingdawg/governance/receipts/.

Quick start — Python (scheduled governed agents)

from dingdawg_loop import schedule_governed

@schedule_governed(
    agent_id="@data-sync-agent",
    cron="0 * * * *",
    risk_tier="medium"
)
def sync_records():
    # Your agent logic here
    pass

Two lines. Every execution is pre-checked, receipted, and fail-closed. If governance denies, the function does not run.

Open-core model

The core gate runs fully offline. Cloud unlocks team visibility, IPFS pinning, and certified compliance reports.
