The `TrajectoryCollector` is wired into the graph through its `callback_manager` at compile time and records node visits, tool calls with their arguments, the final reply, token usage and timing. `AgentEvaluator` runs each case, hands the recorded execution to every criterion enabled in the `EvalConfig`, and returns an `EvalReport` with a score, a pass flag and a reason for each criterion. + +## Building the eval set + +The agent under test is an e-commerce support agent with three tools: `lookup_order`, `get_shipping_status` and `issue_refund`. Two rules matter more than anything else it does: + +1. Asked about an order, it must call `lookup_order` with the order ID from the message. +2. For an order that has not been returned, it must never call `issue_refund`. + +The first rule fits an eval set file, which `EvalSetBuilder` writes: + +```python title="tests/evals/build_cases.py" +from tenxgraph.qa.evaluation import EvalSetBuilder + +support_eval_set = ( + EvalSetBuilder("support-agent-core") + # One expected tool call with exact arguments + .add_tool_test( + query="Where is my package for order ORD-9921?", + tool_name="lookup_order", + tool_args={"order_id": "ORD-9921"}, + expected_response="ORD-9921", + case_id="lookup_valid_order", + ) + # Two tools in order, and the agent node runs again after the tools + .add_case( + query="Track my package for order ORD-4410 and tell me when it arrives", + expected="Estimated delivery", + expected_tools=["lookup_order", "get_shipping_status"], + expected_node_order=["agent", "agent"], + case_id="order_tracking_flow", + ) + .build() +) + +support_eval_set.to_file("tests/fixtures/support_cases.evalset.json") +``` + +Four details are easy to miss. The collector records tool calls as tool calls, not as visits to the tool node, so `node_visits` for this graph looks like `["__start__", "agent", "agent"]` and the expected order lists only the agent node. A tool given by name only, as in the second case, matches any arguments. Arguments that are given are compared as a whole dict, so an extra optional key the model adds makes the call fail to match.

With `strict=True` the order check uses `MatchType.EXACT`; with `strict=False` it uses `IN_ORDER`. The preset does not score `expected_node_order`, so add a `node_order` criterion if you want the graph path checked: + +```python title="tests/evals/test_agent_quality.py" +from tenxgraph.qa.evaluation import CriteriaConfig, CriterionConfig, EvalConfig, MatchType +from tenxgraph.qa.evaluation.config.presets import EvalPresets + +CI_CONFIG = EvalPresets.combine( + EvalPresets.tool_usage(threshold=1.0, strict=True, check_args=True), + EvalConfig( + criteria=CriteriaConfig( + # Expected nodes must appear in this order; extra loops are allowed + node_order=CriterionConfig.node_order(match_type=MatchType.IN_ORDER), + ) + ), +) +``` + +None of these criteria calls a model.

A public page that redirects to an internal address is refused at that hop. +- No proxy environment variables are read. +- The body has a size cap. + +## `fetch_url` + +`fetch_url` is a prebuilt tool with the tags `web`, `fetch` and `network`. It returns normalised page text, caps `max_chars` at 20,000, and runs the blocking client in a worker thread so it does not stall the event loop. + +Before this change it checked the first host only, then let `urllib` follow redirects anywhere, and it resolved the name twice. A public page could redirect to an internal address, and DNS rebinding could change the answer between the check and the connection. Both are closed by the rules above. + +## Client-supplied media links + +Some model providers (OpenAI, Anthropic) fetch a media URL themselves. On other paths, notably Google GenAI, the Google File API and inline bytes, your server downloads it. That URL came from a client, so it is untrusted input. A `MediaFetchPolicy` says what may be downloaded: + +| Field | Default | +|---|---| +| `enabled` | `True` | +| `allowed_schemes` | `("https", "http")` | +| `allowed_hosts` | empty, meaning any public host | +| `allow_private_for_allowed_hosts` | `False` | +| `allowed_content_types` | `("image/*", "application/pdf")` | +| `max_bytes` | 20 MB | +| `timeout` | 10 seconds for the whole download, redirects included | +| `allowed_gcs_buckets` | empty, so every `gs://` URL is rejected | + +Set a policy when you compile the graph: + +```python +from tenxgraph.storage.media import MediaFetchPolicy + +app = graph.compile( + checkpointer=checkpointer, + media_policy=MediaFetchPolicy( + allowed_hosts=("cdn.example.com", "*.example.org"), + allowed_content_types=("image/*", "application/pdf", "audio/*"), + ), +) +``` + +`allow_private_for_allowed_hosts` is for on-premises setups where a listed host really lives on a private address. Cloud metadata addresses stay blocked even then. Without a policy, the default one applies. + +A refused or failed download does not fail the run. It becomes a `[Failed to load image]` or `[Failed to load media]` text part, and the warning logs the URL without its query string, since signed URLs carry secrets there. + +One behaviour change to plan for: on Google graphs, audio and video links stop downloading until you allow those content types in the policy. + +`gs://` URLs are passed through to Vertex AI unchanged, and Vertex AI reads them with the server's own credentials. That is why the bucket list exists. The bucket list is enforced by `check_url`, not by the converters. + +## The API refuses bad URLs before the run starts + +When you serve with `10xgraph-api`, every external media URL in an incoming message goes through the graph's `media_policy.check_url` before anything runs. The check touches no network: it looks at the enabled flag, the scheme, the host allow-list and, for an IP literal, whether the address may be reached. A blocked URL returns 400 with the policy's message. Names are resolved at download time, and their addresses are checked then. + +So there are two layers. The API rejects URLs that are wrong on their face, cheaply and early. The download client then checks what a name actually resolves to, on every hop. + +## What this does not cover + +- A tool you write yourself that calls `requests` or `httpx` gets none of this. Use `tenxgraph.utils.safe_http` or put your own checks in front of it. +- `fetch_url` returns text from a public page to the model. That text is untrusted input to the model, which is a prompt-injection question and not an SSRF one.

This post lists it for one setup: you write a graph, compile it, and serve it with `10xgraph-api`. For each protection you get the default, the config that changes it, and what stays on your side. It is written for a platform lead comparing frameworks, so the "you still must" parts are as long as the "we do" parts. + +The short version: you build the agent, and the server owns the request surface, per-user isolation, run limits and startup checks. The one thing it does not decide for you is whether to turn authentication on. + +## 1. Who is calling: authentication + +**Default:** none. With `auth` unset or `null`, every route is open. This is the quickstart behaviour, and it also holds with `MODE=production`. + +**Turn it on:** set `"auth": "jwt"` in `10xgraph.json` and export `JWT_SECRET_KEY` and `JWT_ALGORITHM`, or point `auth` at your own `BaseAuth` subclass. A token needs `exp` and a non-empty `user_id`, else the server answers 401. If you set `JWT_ISSUER` or `JWT_AUDIENCE`, `iss` and `aud` are required too. An HS-family secret shorter than 32 bytes stops the server at startup in production. + +**You still must:** switch it on, keep the signing secret in a secret store, and make your login service the only place that mints `user_id`. [Security in five minutes](/docs/get-started/security-in-five-minutes) walks through it. + +## 2. Who owns what: thread ownership + +**Default:** once auth is configured, or `MODE=production`, the `ownership` authorization backend is on. Only a thread's owner can read, run or delete it. A foreign `invoke` or `stream` gets 403 before the graph starts. A client cannot invent a thread id: it starts a thread by omitting the id and uses the one the server returns. The check fails closed: if the checkpointer cannot name a thread's owner, requests are denied, and with auth on the server refuses to boot. + +**Turn it on or tune it:** pass a checkpointer to `graph.compile(checkpointer=...)`. The `checkpointer` key in `10xgraph.json` is not read by the server. `runs.thread_ids: "client"` opts out of server-made ids. `authorization` takes your own backend. + +**You still must:** use a checkpointer that supports owners (`PgCheckpointer`, SQLite, in-memory) and think about who may share data. The companion post [Why a user cannot read another user's thread](/blog/why-a-user-cannot-read-another-users-thread) shows the mechanism in detail. + +## 3. What a request may do: scoped authorization + +**Default:** routes check `resource:action` scopes such as `graph:invoke` from the token's `scope` or `scopes` claim. At startup a route guard refuses to boot if any non-public route has no permission guard. Only `/ping` and `/health/ready` are public. Graph introspection needs `graph:read` in production. + +**Config:** put scopes in your tokens, or supply an `authorization` backend. A token with no scope claim is unrestricted, so decide deliberately which of your tokens carry scopes. + +**You still must:** issue narrow scopes, and check permissions inside tools that touch sensitive data. The server authorizes the request, not the business logic inside your tool. + +## 4. What a client may send: input shaping + +**Default:** client messages must have the `user` role. An `assistant` or `system` message is refused with 422, so a forged "I approved it" cannot enter the thread. A `tool` message is accepted only as the answer to a pending remote tool call. `context_summary` and `execution_meta` are never client-writable, the server replaces client message ids, and reserved config keys such as `user_id`, `authz`, `tool_timeout` and `max_parallel_tool_calls` are dropped. + +**Config:** `runs.config_keys` and `runs.state_keys` are allow-lists for request config and state (422 on other keys). + +**By design:** a client may set custom state fields and `current_node`. That lets a frontend picker write a selected id straight into state, and lets a dropdown of agents start at the chosen node. If your graph needs an entry guard, enforce it inside the graph or restrict `runs.state_keys`. + +**You still must:** treat anything the client may put into state as untrusted input in your own nodes. + +## 5. How much a run may cost: limits + +**Defaults:** + +- Request bodies are capped at 10 MB (`MAX_REQUEST_SIZE`, 413 over it). +- Each user may have 10 HTTP runs in flight (`runs.max_concurrent_per_user`, 429 over it). +- In production a run that exceeds 300 seconds is stopped: invoke returns 504, a stream ends with an error chunk (`runs.timeout`). +- A thread runs one request at a time. A second request waits up to 30 seconds, then gets 409 "thread is busy". `on_busy: "cancel"` stops the running one instead. +- A model turn runs at most 10 tool calls at once (`runs.max_parallel_tool_calls`). + +**Config:** `rate_limit` (by `ip`, `user` or `global`, memory or Redis backend) is off until you add it to `10xgraph.json`. `websocket.max_connections` and `websocket.max_connections_per_user` cap sockets. + +**You still must:** add rate limiting, and set `trusted_proxies` to the real number of proxy hops. Streaming runs have no per-node or per-tool deadlines, only the run timeout. + +## 6. What the server reveals: production mode + +**Default with `MODE=production`:** an unknown `MODE` value refuses to start. A wildcard `ORIGINS` or `ALLOWED_HOST` refuses to start (`STRICT_PRODUCTION_CHECKS` is on by default in production). API docs are off, graph introspection is scoped, `IS_DEBUG` is forced off, and 5xx bodies and error chunks carry generic text. A node exception reaches the client as 500 `NODE_001` "An error occurred in a graph node.", with no stack trace. A tool that raises reaches the model only as "failed with an internal error (reference ...)"; the raw text stays in the server log under that reference. + +**Config:** `MODE`, `ORIGINS`, `ALLOWED_HOST`, `STRICT_PRODUCTION_CHECKS`. + +**You still must:** set the real origins and hosts, and read your logs, because the detail moved there. + +## 7. Outbound requests: SSRF and files + +**Default:** external media URLs in client input are checked against the graph's `MediaFetchPolicy` before the run, and a blocked URL is a 400. Downloads and the prebuilt `fetch_url` tool resolve the host once, require public addresses, pin the connection, re-check each redirect and cap the body. The prebuilt file tools are confined to a root you set in code. + +**Config:** `media_policy` on `compile()`, `create_file_tools(root=...)`. + +**You still must:** use those prebuilt tools, or apply the same discipline in your own. A hand-written tool that fetches arbitrary URLs is outside the policy. + +## 8. Durable and replay-safe state + +**Default with `PgCheckpointer`:** state is in PostgreSQL with Redis as a hot cache. Writes are versioned per thread, so a stale run cannot move the cache backwards. A tool call that finished before a crash is recorded in a ledger and not run again on resume (invoke path). Background: [hot and cold agent memory](/blog/hot-and-cold-agent-memory) and [your agent charged the card twice](/blog/your-agent-charged-the-card-twice). + +**Config:** `PgCheckpointer` passed to `compile()`, with `DATABASE_URL` and `REDIS_URL`. + +**You still must:** back up PostgreSQL and decide retention. The ledger gives at-least-once safety, not exactly-once, so give money-moving tools an idempotency key. Streaming runs do not consult the ledger. + +## 9. Deploy and scale + +**Default:** `10xgraph build` writes a Dockerfile that runs Gunicorn as a non-root user, and with flags a `docker-compose.yml` and `k8s.yaml`. `GET /ping` is liveness and `GET /health/ready` is readiness. Workers hold no conversation state; it lives in the checkpointer. With Redis configured, the ownership cache, run caps and thread locks are shared across workers. + +**Config:** `10xgraph build --docker-compose --k8s`, `redis` or `REDIS_URL`, `rate_limit.backend: "redis"`. + +**You still must:** terminate TLS at your load balancer or ingress, run two or more instances if you need availability, and size your database. + +## The honest list + +Regardless of how many boxes above are ticked: + +- **Auth is not forced.** `auth: null` serves everyone, including in production. +- **Prompt injection is not solved.** Validators and approval steps bound what a model can be talked into. They do not remove it. +- **Your tools are your code.** The server cannot know what a tool should be allowed to read. +- **Secrets, TLS, backups, retention** are infrastructure you run. +- **The project is pre-1.0**, needs Python 3.12 or newer, and has a smaller community than LangGraph or CrewAI.

This post walks through the layers that answer it in `10xgraph-api` and `PgCheckpointer`. It names the mechanisms, the config, and the checks you can run yourself. It does not claim the server makes your tools safe. That part is yours, and the last section says so. + +## Layer 1: identity comes from the token, nowhere else + +Authentication runs before anything else. With `"auth": "jwt"`, `JwtAuth` requires `exp` on every token and a `user_id` that is a non-empty string or a whole number; anything else is a 401. When `JWT_ISSUER` or `JWT_AUDIENCE` is set, `iss` and `aud` are required and checked as well. Scope claims must have the right type, or the request gets a 401. Revoked tokens are rejected when you configure `token_revocation`, and a backend failure there fails closed with a 503. + +The verified `user_id` is the only identity the server uses. A `user`, `user_id` or `authz` key in the request config is dropped, and state or message content is never read for identity. Your tools get the verified identity through dependency injection. + +Identities that start with the reserved `__system__` prefix are refused at authentication. That matters because shared data (for example, memories written by the system) is owned by such an identity. No caller can authenticate as the owner of shared data. + +## Layer 2: an ownership check on every thread-touching step + +Once auth is configured, or `MODE=production`, the `ownership` authorization backend is the default. Ownership is object-level: invoke, stream, stop, and every checkpointer read, write and delete resolves the thread's owner and compares it with the caller. A foreign `invoke` or `stream` is rejected with 403 up front, so the graph never runs and the model never sees the other user's history. + +The check fails closed: + +- If the checkpointer cannot report a thread's owner, thread requests are denied. With auth on, the server refuses to boot in that setup rather than serve without the check. +- A thread with no owner allows only the actions that create one (`graph:invoke`, `graph:stream`, `checkpointer:write`, `checkpointer:import`). State and message writes claim the thread first. + +## Layer 3: the client cannot pick a thread to attack + +By default `runs.thread_ids` is `server`. A client may only name a thread that already exists, and then only if it owns it. A new thread starts by omitting the id, and the server returns the one it made. This closes the gap where a client invents an id that another tenant will need later. The two frontends that create their own ids (AG-UI and the realtime live endpoint) are exempt, and the caller owns the id it creates. Set `runs.thread_ids: "client"` only if you accept client-chosen ids. + +## Layer 4: the checkpointer is isolated too + +The API check is the front door. `PgCheckpointer` adds a second lock, so a bug in a route cannot read across users. `enforce_user_isolation` is `True` by default: + +- The Redis cache key includes both ids, `state_cache::`, so one user's cache lookup cannot return another user's entry. +- Durable reads, writes and deletes are scoped to the owner. On write the thread row is locked and its owner checked, and a write to another user's thread raises `STORAGE_FORBIDDEN_001`. +- Tool-ledger reads (`aget_tool_result`) apply the same owner filter, so naming another user's thread returns no recorded result. This is in the core changelog under the release after 0.10.3. +- Message ids are unique per `(thread_id, message_id)`, so claiming an id in your thread cannot break another thread's checkpoint. Same release. +- Paging is capped at 1000 rows per call. + +Set `enforce_user_isolation=False` only for a single-tenant app. More in [hot and cold agent memory](/blog/hot-and-cold-agent-memory). + +## Layer 5: custom backends are isolated by default + +If you write your own `AuthorizationBackend`, `isolation_scope()` defaults to `"owner"`. A backend that implements only `authorize()` still scopes threads and memories per user. Sharing is something you opt into by returning `"none"`, which is what the `allow_all` backend does. + +## Layer 6: ownership is cached, and deletes are handled + +Resolving the owner on every request would cost a database call each time. Ownership never changes, so the server caches it: an in-process LRU (L1, 30 seconds by default) and, when Redis is configured, a shared tier (L2, one hour by default). When a thread is deleted, the cache entry is evicted and a tombstone is left for one L1 TTL, in L1 and in Redis. Without it, another worker that still cached the old owner could let someone else recreate the deleted id and inherit a stale record. The tombstone window is why multi-worker deployments should configure Redis: with only the in-process tier the tombstone exists on the worker that handled the delete. + +## Check it yourself + +This is the sequence from [Security in five minutes](/docs/get-started/security-in-five-minutes). `ALICE_TOKEN` and `BOB_TOKEN` are JWTs for two different `user_id` values signed with your `JWT_SECRET_KEY`. + +```bash +# 1.

Break it on purpose + +The requests below ran against a real `10xgraph dev` server in production mode with JWT auth. The agent was a stub with no model: a node that asks for `refund_order` and `notify_team` in one turn, an in-memory checkpointer, and a fake payment provider and team channel that count their calls. `notify_team` posts a message and, like many real calls, is not idempotent. The server log showed one provider call and one team post for the approved thread. + +| What the caller does | Response | +|---|---| +| Resume with the wrong `interrupt_id` | **409** `interrupt_id 'int_wrong' does not match the open interrupt 'int_fdc3...'` | +| Resume with `{"approved": "yes"}` | **422** `Resume value does not match the response schema of interrupt '...': $.approved: expected boolean, got str` | +| A different user resumes the thread | **403** `Not authorized to invoke graph`, before the graph starts | +| The right user resumes with `{"approved": true}` | **200**, the refund ran once | +| The same answer is sent again | **409** `Nothing to resume: this thread is not paused at an interrupt` | +| A new user message is sent to a paused thread | **422** (a generic "Invalid input provided." in production): a paused thread wants an answer, not a message | +| `{"approved": false}` | **200**, the tool returned "Refund declined by the reviewer.", the provider was never called | + +The 409 for a stale answer and the 422 for a bad one are checked before the tool runs.

In the stub, the model asks for two tools in one turn, and `notify_team` had already finished in the first run, and the server log shows `TEAM POST #1` once for this thread, not twice. A finished tool call is written to the checkpointer's tool ledger as soon as it returns, under a key made of the assistant message id and the tool call id, and a re-run takes the recorded result instead of calling the tool. + +The same ledger covers a crash. If a worker dies after the refund went out but before the step finished, the next run of that step finds the recorded result and does not call `refund_order` again. Read [Replay-safe tools](/docs/concepts/replay-safe-tools) for the limits, which are real: + +- A crash before the tool returns, or in the moment between the return and the ledger write, can run it again. That is why `refund_order` sends `idempotency_key=f"refund:{order_id}"` to the provider. Keep both layers. +- The ledger needs a checkpointer that implements it. `PgCheckpointer` stores it in Postgres. `InMemoryCheckpointer` keeps it in the process, so it does not survive a restart, and `SqliteCheckpointer` has no ledger. +- Streamed runs do not use the ledger. + +I did not kill a process mid-run for this guide, and I did not run Postgres. The skip on re-run was observed in-process, as above. The survive-a-restart claim rests on the Postgres ledger described in the concept page and the core tests, not on a run here. + +### Two requests, one thread + +Start a run with a tool that takes a while, then send a second request to the same thread while it is still going. The second request waits up to 30 seconds for the first, and then gets: + +```text +HTTP 409 +{"error":{"code":"HTTPException","message":"thread is busy", ...}} +``` + +In the test the slow run lasted 40 seconds, and the second request returned 409 about 30 seconds after it was sent. This is the guard against a double click, two tabs, or a retry that arrives while the first attempt is still working: only one run per thread at a time. Add `"on_busy": "cancel"` next to `recursion_limit` in the request to ask the running run to stop instead of waiting (documented in the API changelog; not run for this guide). With Redis configured the lock is shared across workers, and it expires by itself if a worker dies. + + + +Releases 0.10.3 (core) and 0.9.0 (API) have `interrupt()`, `resume`, the tool ledger and the owner check. These parts come after them: `interrupt_id` on the request and the matching 409 and 422 above, the per-thread run lock with its 409 and `on_busy`, and the owner scoping of ledger reads in `PgCheckpointer`. Without them, a resume is answered without the id check, and parallel requests on a thread are not queued.

To give the model a message it should act on, return it from the tool as a string. Tool timeouts, "Tool not found" and argument errors still reach the model. +- **Invalid tool arguments return a retryable error.** If the model's arguments are not a valid JSON object (for example, the response was cut off), the tool does not run.

Starting a new run on the same thread no longer clears a stop meant for a run that is still going, so a runaway tool loop in run 1 can still be stopped after run 2 has started. The checkpointer tracks the active run id per thread with `abegin_run`, `aend_run` and `aget_active_run`, and `ais_stop_requested` only reports a request that targets the config's `run_id`.

No charge has happened. +2. **The ledger.** Each tool call is keyed by the assistant message id plus the `tool_call_id`, both of which are stable after a reload from the checkpoint. Before calling a tool, the node asks the checkpointer for a recorded result under that key. After the tool returns, the node writes the result immediately (`InvokeNodeHandler._handle_single_tool` in `tenxgraph/core/graph/utils/invoke_node_handler.py`). A paused call has no result yet, so it is not recorded. +3. **The idempotency key.** It covers the gaps the ledger cannot: a crash after the provider acted but before the record was written, or a record write that failed. + +## What happens on a crash and on resume + +- **Pause, then answer.** The run stops at `interrupt()`. Your frontend shows the request, and the person answers minutes or days later. The pause is stored in the checkpoint, so a server restart in between loses nothing. The tool then runs again from its first line, `interrupt()` returns the answer, and the charge happens once. +- **Crash after a sibling tool finished.** The execution loop saves the current node before it runs and advances only after it completes, so a killed process runs that node again on resume. Tool calls already in the ledger are returned from the record and not called again. This was checked in a run with two tool calls in one node: one needed approval, the other finished first; after the answer, the finished one ran once (its result came from the ledger) and the charge ran once. +- **Crash after the charge, before the node finished.** If the record was written, the resumed node reuses it. If the process died inside the window between the provider charging and the record write, the tool runs again and the provider returns the first charge because the key is the same. +- **Crash while the tool was running.** Nothing is recorded, so the tool runs again. Same protection: the idempotency key. + +Limits you should know: the ledger check lives on the `invoke` tool path, so streamed runs (`astream`, `/v1/graph/stream`) do not consult it. A tool that exceeds `tool_timeout` is cancelled with nothing recorded. `InMemoryCheckpointer` supports the ledger but loses it on restart; `SqliteCheckpointer` does not implement it.
