**Status:** stable · **Owner:** Developer Relations · **License:** Apache-2.0 # `governed-agent` — minimal self-governing KYE agent The smallest runnable scaffold that satisfies the KYE Agent Dev Kit™ self-governing-by-default contract (§32 §0.3): one tool, a §52 binding at task-start, and the §0.3 evidence family + completion envelope at task-end. Companion playbook: [govern-your-agent](../../playbooks/govern-your-agent.md). ## Run ```bash kye agent new my-agent --template governed-agent cd my-agent && npm install && npm start ``` ## What it emits | When | Envelope | Schema | |---|---|---| | task-start | binding | `kye.agent.governance.v1` | | each tool call | tool-call | `kye.evidence.tool_call.v1` | | task-end | completion | `kye.agent.completion.v1` | You write the business logic inside `withKye(...)`; the binding and the evidence family are emitted for you. Reference shapes: [`public/examples/agent-governance/`](../../../examples/agent-governance/). ## Files - `src/agent.ts` — the agent handler, wrapped with `withKye(...)`. - `package.json` — depends on `@kye/agent-dev-kit`.
