@palveron/sdk
Official TypeScript / JavaScript SDK for the Palveron AI Governance Gateway
Every AI interaction your application makes — governed, audited, and optionally anchored to the blockchain. In one line of code.
- Zero dependencies — uses native
fetch; works in Node.js 18+, Deno, Bun, Cloudflare Workers, Vercel Edge
- Multi-modal — text, images, audio, documents, code
- Enterprise-grade — retry with exponential backoff, circuit breaker, typed errors
- On-prem ready — point to any Palveron Gateway endpoint
Installation
npm install @palveron/sdk
pnpm add @palveron/sdk
yarn add @palveron/sdk
Quick Start
import { Palveron } from '@palveron/sdk';
const palveron = new Palveron({ apiKey: process.env.PALVERON_API_KEY! });
const result = await palveron.verify({ prompt: userInput });
if (result.decision === 'BLOCKED') {
console.error(`Blocked: ${result.reason}`);
return;
}
Features
- Policy Enforcement — every prompt routed through your active guardrails before it reaches an LLM
- Trace Verification — every decision logged with an integrity hash for tamper detection
- Agent Registration & Governance — list and audit the agents covered by your account
- Blockchain Attestation — high-severity traces anchored to Flare for cryptographic audit trails
- EU AI Act / DORA / GDPR — compliance-ready audit fields out of the box

API Reference
Full reference at docs.palveron.com/sdks. Quick summary:
verify(request) — Core governance check
const result = await palveron.verify({
prompt: 'Transfer $50,000 to account DE89370400440532013000',
metadata: { userId: 'u_123', department: 'finance' },
attachments: [{
contentType: 'application/pdf',
data: base64EncodedPdf,
filename: 'contract.pdf',
}],
context: {
mcpServer: 'https://mcp.internal.corp',
toolName: 'bank_transfer',
chainDepth: 2,
sourceSystem: 'crewai',
sessionId: 'sess_abc',
},
});
Returns VerifyResponse:
decision | 'ALLOWED' | 'BLOCKED' | 'MODIFIED' | 'ERROR' | Governance decision |
output | string | Sanitized output (PII redacted if MODIFIED) |
reason | string | Human-readable explanation |
traceId | string | Unique audit trail ID |
integrityHash | string | SHA-256 hash for tamper detection |
shouldAnchor | boolean | Whether trace will be anchored to Flare blockchain |
flareStatus | string | LOCAL_ONLY, PENDING, ANCHORED, SKIPPED, FAILED |
flareTxHash | string | null | Blockchain transaction hash (after anchoring) |
contentType | string | Detected content type |
findings | Finding[] | Security findings (PII, secrets, policy violations) |
latencyMs | number | Round-trip latency in milliseconds |
check(prompt) — Quick text-only verification
const { decision } = await palveron.check('Is this prompt safe?');
verifyWithFile(prompt, filePath) — File attachment (Node.js only)
const result = await palveron.verifyWithFile(
'Analyze this document for compliance',
'./report.pdf'
);
listPolicies(env?) — List active policies
const { policies } = await palveron.listPolicies('prod');
health() — Gateway health check
const health = await palveron.health();
console.log(health.status);
diagnostics() — SDK diagnostics
const diag = palveron.diagnostics();
Examples
LLM gateway with governance
import { Palveron } from '@palveron/sdk';
import OpenAI from 'openai';
const palveron = new Palveron({ apiKey: process.env.PALVERON_API_KEY! });
const openai = new OpenAI();
async function askWithGovernance(userPrompt: string) {
const gate = await palveron.verify({ prompt: userPrompt });
if (gate.decision === 'BLOCKED') {
throw new Error(`Blocked by policy: ${gate.reason}`);
}
return openai.chat.completions.create({
model: 'gpt-4o',
messages: [{ role: 'user', content: gate.output }],
});
}
Agentic / MCP audit context
const result = await palveron.verify({
prompt: 'Execute bank transfer',
context: {
mcpServer: 'https://banking-mcp.corp.internal',
toolName: 'transfer_funds',
chainDepth: 3,
sourceSystem: 'crewai',
sessionId: 'agent_session_42',
},
});
On-premise / self-hosted gateway
const palveron = new Palveron({
apiKey: process.env.PALVERON_API_KEY!,
baseUrl: 'https://gateway.internal.acme.corp:8080',
timeout: 10_000,
maxRetries: 5,
});
Error Handling
All errors extend PalveronError with structured metadata:
import { PalveronError, PalveronRateLimitError } from '@palveron/sdk';
try {
await palveron.verify({ prompt: input });
} catch (err) {
if (err instanceof PalveronRateLimitError) {
await sleep(err.retryAfterMs);
return retry();
}
if (err instanceof PalveronError) {
console.error(err.code, err.statusCode, err.requestId);
}
}
PalveronAuthenticationError | AUTHENTICATION_FAILED | No | Invalid or expired API key |
PalveronRateLimitError | RATE_LIMITED | Yes | Quota exceeded (includes retryAfterMs) |
PalveronValidationError | VALIDATION_ERROR | No | Malformed request (includes field) |
PalveronTimeoutError | TIMEOUT | Yes | Gateway didn't respond in time |
PalveronCircuitOpenError | CIRCUIT_OPEN | No | Too many consecutive failures |
Requirements
- Node.js 18 or newer (uses native
fetch)
- TypeScript 5.0 or newer (recommended; SDK works in plain JavaScript too)
- Also runs in Deno, Bun, Cloudflare Workers, Vercel Edge
