Nostrsocial

NostrSocial — Social Graph for AI Agents

Give your AI agent the ability to manage contacts, enforce trust tiers, and track identity verification — all anchored to Nostr npub identity.

Install

pip install nostrsocial

Core Capabilities

1. Manage Contacts

Add contacts to friends, block, or gray lists with capacity enforcement.

from nostrsocial import SocialEnclave, Tier

enclave = SocialEnclave.create()
enclave.add("alice@example.com", "email", Tier.CLOSE, display_name="Alice")
enclave.block("spam@bad.com", "email")
enclave.gray("meh@example.com", "email")

2. Query Behavioral Rules

Get tier-based behavioral parameters for any contact.

rules = enclave.get_behavior("alice@example.com", "email")
# rules.token_budget, rules.warmth, rules.can_interrupt, etc.

# Unknown contacts get neutral behavior
rules = enclave.get_behavior("stranger@example.com", "email")
# warmth=0.5, token_budget=500

3. Identity Verification

Track identity state from proxy to claimed to verified.

# See who needs verification
for contact in enclave.get_upgradeable():
    print(f"{contact.display_name}: {contact.upgrade_hint}")

# Create a challenge for a claimed npub
challenge = enclave.create_challenge("npub1alice...")

4. Persistence

Save and load the social graph.

from nostrsocial import FileStorage

storage = FileStorage("~/.agent/social.json")
enclave = SocialEnclave.create(storage)
enclave.add("alice@example.com", "email", Tier.CLOSE)
enclave.save()

# Later
enclave = SocialEnclave.load(storage)

When to Use Each Module

Important Notes

• Friends list is capped at 150 (Dunbar's number): 5 intimate + 15 close + 50 familiar + 80 known
• Block list holds 50. Gray list holds 100 with auto-decay.
• Proxy npubs are deterministic — same identifier always maps to same npub
• Identity state: proxy → claimed → verified. Verified contacts get warmer behavior.
• Challenge verification requires relay interaction — stub only in 0.1.0
• Depends on nostrkey for npub derivation
