swiss-ai-hub-core
The foundational shared library for Swiss AI Hub. Every other Swiss AI Hub Python package depends on it — you rarely install it directly.
What is Swiss AI Hub?
Swiss AI Hub is an open-source, self-hosted AI platform for enterprises. One docker compose up starts ~30 integrated containers — LLM gateway (LiteLLM), vector search (Milvus), data pipelines (Dagster), SSO (Keycloak), observability (Langfuse), a chat UI (Open-WebUI), and more. You build custom agents, pipelines, processes, and bot integrations with the Python SDK; the platform provides the runtime.
What is this package?
swiss-ai-hub-core is the shared foundation the rest of the SDK is built on. It is a library, not a runnable service — it provides the Swiss AI Agent Protocol (typed, event-driven messaging over NATS), authentication & multi-tenancy, the Form configuration system, and shared AI/ML utilities. Every higher-level package imports it.
You usually don't install this directly
Install the package for what you're building — each one depends on swiss-ai-hub-core and pulls it in automatically:
| You want to… | Install | Imports as |
|---|---|---|
| Build a workflow-based AI agent | swiss-ai-hub-agent | swiss_ai_hub.agent |
| Expose a REST API + WebSocket gateway | swiss-ai-hub-api | swiss_ai_hub.api |
| Connect agents to Teams / Slack / web chat | swiss-ai-hub-bot | swiss_ai_hub.bot |
| Build a document-ingestion pipeline | swiss-ai-hub-pipeline | swiss_ai_hub.pipeline |
| Orchestrate multi-entity processes | swiss-ai-hub-process | swiss_ai_hub.process |
| Install the whole SDK | swiss-ai-hub (meta) | (pulls all of the above) |
Reach for swiss-ai-hub-core on its own only in the rare case where you're writing a service that speaks the Swiss AI Agent Protocol directly, without one of the higher-level engines above.
Installation
pip install swiss-ai-hub-core # usually unnecessary — it comes in with the package you actually wantAll distributions share the swiss_ai_hub.* native (PEP 420) namespace, so swiss_ai_hub.core, swiss_ai_hub.agent, … coexist as sibling modules regardless of which subset you install.
