SwarmAuth – OAuth 2.1 for AI Agent Swarms
SwarmAuth is an open-source authorization standard designed for autonomous AI agent swarms, utilizing OAuth 2.1 principles to issue cryptographically signed, short-lived delegation tokens. The system addresses the security risks of prompt injection by enforcing capability-scoped limits and strict expiration times, ensuring that compromised LLMs cannot execute unauthorized actions. It supports multi-agent environments through features like key rotation and atomic usage tracking via Redis, while maintaining minimal dependencies and sub-millisecond verification speeds.
- ▪SwarmAuth issues delegation tokens with a maximum time-to-live of 300 seconds to limit the window of potential abuse.
- ▪The library uses Ed25519 signatures and Pydantic for schema validation, avoiding heavy external dependencies in its core.
- ▪KeyRegistry allows for the management of multiple issuers and supports key rotation without invalidating in-flight tokens.
- ▪RedisUsageTracker enables atomic enforcement of rate, budget, and call limits across multiple verifier processes in a distributed swarm.
- ▪Framework adapters are provided for LangChain, CrewAI, AutoGen, and MCP tools to facilitate easy integration into existing AI stacks.

swarmauth 0.1.1 OAuth 2.1 for autonomous AI agent swarms: signed, short-lived, capability-scoped delegation tokens. pip install swarmauth Copy PIP instructions Description Release files Release history SwarmAuth The zero-trust authorization standard for multi-agent systems. SwarmAuth is OAuth 2.1 for autonomous AI swarms: cryptographically signed, short-lived (≤300s), capability-scoped delegation tokens for agent-to-agent and agent-to-tool calls. It's built on one assumption you should already hold — your LLM layer will be compromised by prompt injection — and asks a different question: when that happens, does the execution boundary stop the damage, or does it just trust whatever the model decided? Today, most multi-agent stacks pass raw API keys or unscoped bearer tokens between agents.
