SYNAPSE Adapter SDK¶
The intelligence layer above the AI protocol layer.
Without SYNAPSE, connecting 4 specialized AI models requires 6 custom connectors. 10 models requires 45. Each one breaks when either model's schema changes.
With SYNAPSE, write one ingress and one egress function per model —
and achieve permanent interoperability with every other registered model.
Install¶
pip install synapse-adapter-sdk
Write your first adapter¶
from synapse_sdk import AdapterBase, CanonicalIR
from typing import Any
class MyModelAdapter(AdapterBase):
MODEL_ID = "my-org/my-model-v1.0"
ADAPTER_VERSION = "1.0.0"
def ingress(self, ir: CanonicalIR) -> dict[str, Any]:
return { "input": ir.payload.content }
def egress(self, output: dict, original_ir: CanonicalIR, latency_ms: int) -> CanonicalIR:
updated = original_ir.copy()
updated.provenance.append(self.build_provenance(
confidence=output["score"],
latency_ms=latency_ms,
))
return updated
Validate your adapter¶
synapse-validate --adapter my_module.MyModelAdapter --all-fixtures
What SYNAPSE is not¶
SYNAPSE does not compete with MCP or A2A. It builds on top of them. MCP connects agents to tools. A2A connects agents to each other. SYNAPSE connects specialist models with incompatible schemas — and makes routing between them smarter over time.
