alphaswarm-kb-federation

Catalog date: 2026-06-24.

alphaswarm-kb-federation is a standalone cross-silo marketplace federation reverse-proxy. It allows tenants to securely share and subscribe to knowledge corpora across the AlphaSwarm platform.

Role​

  • Knowledge Marketplace: Facilitates the discovery and recall of shared knowledge from other silos.
  • Secure Proxying: Brokers zero-copy dataset sharing without exposing subscriber bearers upstream.
  • Access Control: Integrates with OpenFGA to confirm visibility and subscription rights before minting signed share tokens.
  • Bitemporal Merging: Merges federated results into the subscriber's local context while preserving bitemporal metadata.

Hard Boundaries​

  1. Read-only by Design: The federation gateway never modifies upstream data.
  2. No Monolith Imports: Decoupled from alphaswarm.*; uses alphaswarm_core and HTTP.
