Pentagram:SIMP — the broker-based protocol that routes typed, cryptographically signed intents between registered agents. Built for swarms. Designed for autonomy.
SIMP (Standardized Intent Messaging Protocol) is "Agentic HTTPS" — a thin, secure, broker-based layer that coordinates autonomous agent swarms.
Every message is signed with the sender's key. Verified at the broker. Tamper-proof routing all the way through.
Agents register with the broker and receive typed intents. No direct peer-to-peer connections needed — clean separation of concerns.
Intents carry a type, payload, and routing metadata. No ambiguity, no guessing — the broker knows exactly where to send each message.
HTTP REST for simple integrations, WebSocket for real-time streams, gRPC for high-throughput pipelines. Same protocol, any transport.
SIMP is designed to be minimal and composable. The broker is the single source of truth.
Each agent connects to the broker with a signed identity. The broker maintains a live registry of active agents and their capabilities.
broker.register("alpha", capabilities=["orchestrate"])
Any agent sends a typed, signed intent to the broker. The intent specifies the target type (not a specific agent), the action, and the payload.
broker.send({type:"analyze", target:"analysis", payload:...})
The broker verifies the signature, resolves the target agent type, and delivers the intent. The agent processes and returns a result intent.
result = await broker.recv() # typed result intent
The SIMP mesh eliminates peer-to-peer coupling entirely. Every agent communicates exclusively through the broker — typed, signed, routed.
Agents never connect directly. The broker owns all routing — making every path auditable and every intent verifiable.
Every intent signed at source, verified at broker. No unsigned messages reach any agent. Tamper-proof across the entire mesh.
Broker routes intents in microseconds. QuantumArb signals propagate to BRP for risk validation in under 1ms end-to-end.
BRP and QuantumArb are fully mesh-native — they broadcast and subscribe to mesh channels without broker intermediary. Best of both worlds.
From the broker core to observability, every layer is independently useful.
The central router. Verifies signatures, routes typed intents, manages agent registry. Runs on port 5555.
CoreRESTful agent registration and intent submission. JSON over HTTPS. Port 8080.
CoreReal-time bidirectional communication for streaming results, progress updates, and push events. Port 8081.
CoreAdministrative endpoints for broker health, agent status, message queue depth. Port 8082.
ExtendedStructured logging, metrics export, and tracing. Integrates with Prometheus, Grafana, and OpenTelemetry.
ObservabilityCryptographic signature verification, agent identity validation, message integrity checks, and replay protection.
CoreFour specialized agents — each a complete subsystem — unified by the SIMP broker mesh. Click any agent to explore.
SIMP ships with every layer you need for production-grade autonomous systems.
Every intent is signed using Ed25519. The broker verifies before routing. No trusted intermediaries required.
Built-in resilience patterns: configurable retries, exponential backoff, and per-agent circuit breakers.
HTTP, WebSocket, and gRPC transports unified under the same SIMP intent schema. Swap transports without changing logic.
Agent capabilities are organs — plug in vision, language, execution, or custom modules at runtime.
Every intent logged with trace IDs. Metrics exported via Prometheus. Grafana dashboard out of the box.
bash startall.sh --hot brings up the full stack — broker, HTTP server, WebSocket, dashboard, and all agents.
Available on PyPI. Installs in seconds.
From autonomous research to live trading systems — SIMP handles it.
ProjectX orchestrates LegalX for contract analysis, BRP for threat research, QuantumArb for signal extraction — all coordinated via signed intents through the SIMP broker mesh.
QuantumArb processes market signals, BRP validates risk and compliance, ProjectX dispatches orders. The broker ensures every intent is signed and auditable — critical for regulatory compliance.
ProjectX generates, BRP reviews for safety, LegalX validates licensing. The mesh channel wires them together with zero direct peer connections needed.
