⬡ love-package/v1 · public static distribution

Packages without permission slips.

Discover an exact version, read its manifest, and install its tarball over ordinary HTTPS. LOVE packages are Locator-independent, Open, Verifiable, and Exchangeable. Publishing to npm is optional, not a prerequisite for release or access.

The package is a set of bytes, not an account relationship. Anyone can fetch it; verified mirrors can serve the same bytes.

No signup and no npm account. The catalog, manifests, and artifacts are public GET and HEAD resources. Pin an exact version in automation. The AgentTool catalog exposes no mutable latest artifact URL.

Install an exact version

Use Bun directly with a versioned tarball. The package keeps its declared scoped name, so application imports stay unchanged.

The same HTTPS tarballs can be consumed by other package managers that support URL dependencies. For example, npm install https://…/agenttool-data-0.3.0.tgz uses the npm client but does not use npm publication or require an npm account.

This catalog contains the four JavaScript packages above. The Python agenttool-sdk distribution remains on PyPI and is not mirrored through this catalog.

!

Easy path versus verified path. A direct bun add https://…tgz is an explicit operator install, but LOVE does not claim that Bun checks the sibling manifest's size and digest. For a conforming high-trust install, download to a temporary file, verify both values yourself, then give that verified local file to package machinery.

Dependency boundary. @agenttool/data has no third-party runtime dependency. The SDK and ADDS artifacts declare upstream dependencies; @agenttool/data-sync requires the exact compatible ADDS/data release line. Install those two peer artifacts explicitly when using the bridge. A fresh install may otherwise resolve dependencies through your package manager's configured registry or cache. love-package/v1 distributes the named artifact—it does not vendor its dependency graph or promise an offline install.

Discover it as an agent

The well-known document is the stable entry point. It names the protocol and doctrine, then points to the versioned catalog surface. Its registry_role says explicitly that the catalog is a mirror index, not package-name authority.

What one release manifest carries

A manifest declares protocol, document_type: "package-manifest", name, version, description, nullable license, artifact, runtime, install, and source. Indexes use the distinct document_type: "package-index", so an agent can select the correct schema before reading either shape. The artifact record uses format: "npm-tarball" as a file-format label; that does not mean the artifact was published to the npm registry.

Verify before install

Read the sibling manifest over HTTPS, copy its size and SHA-256 value, download the artifact, and compare both locally before extraction or installation. This catches truncation, cache corruption, and artifact substitution that does not also replace the manifest.

What the digest proves. A matching SHA-256 proves that the downloaded bytes match the manifest you read. HTTPS authenticates the origin during that fetch. Version 1 manifests are not signed, so a digest does not prove maintainer identity if an attacker can replace both manifest and artifact. Installing any package still executes code under the package manager's rules. Review source and pin trusted manifest bytes where that threat matters.

Mirror without becoming a gatekeeper

An artifact mirror serves a byte-identical copy from another locator. A full catalog mirror can additionally copy the index and manifests. Consumers can choose another HTTPS origin while retaining the package name, version, size, and digest. This site is a convenient origin, not a protocol requirement.

Four standards, four jobs

StandardWhat it moves or describesWhat it does not imply
love-package/v1 Package discovery, exact release manifests, install artifact locations, and byte integrity. No code sandbox, dependency vendoring, runtime API, data replication, or durability guarantee.
agent-data/v1 Collections, immutable records, local query, collectors, blobs, and an append-only change feed. Installing its reference package does not create hosted storage or peer synchronization.
adds/v0.1
experimental
Encrypted content-addressed Blocks plus signed Manifests and direct read Grants. Package distribution is not encrypted-object distribution, and ADDS has no peer discovery in this profile.
agent-data-sync/v1 Bounded encrypted pull between explicit operator-configured peers, with private resumable checkpoints. No discovery, push, consensus, hosted sync service, or multi-master consistency.

In one line: love-package/v1 gets software onto a machine; agent-data/v1 lets an agent keep and query a corpus; adds/v0.1 lets exact encrypted objects move independently; agent-data-sync/v1 composes them into one explicit bounded pull path.
