When to use this section

Most teams should use the provider wrappers: Use this section when:
  • you are building your own provider adapter
  • you want to call Averta before and after provider operations manually
  • you need provider-agnostic decision helpers instead of a provider-specific wrapper
  • you use a programming language without an Averta SDK package
This is the advanced path. JavaScript and Python adapters can use core packages. Other runtimes should call the raw decision API.

​
Raw API vs. Core SDK

​
The Low-level Client

AvertaDecisionClient calls Averta’s /v1/decide endpoint and exposes methods for the same checkpoint lifecycle used by the wrappers:
  • preflight(...)
  • checkToolCall(...)
  • checkToolResult(...)
  • checkOutput(...)

​
Reading Path

Raw API

Call Averta directly from any language.

Decision client

Create a low-level Averta client.

Request checkpoint

Evaluate provider input before the upstream call.

Tool exposure

Filter tools after a restrict_tools decision.

Tool-call checkpoint

Check model-requested tool calls before execution.

Tool results

Screen returned tool content before it goes back to the model.

Output checkpoint

Check final output before returning it.
