Why this matters
Expired API credentials are a common cause of silent integration failures. For Merge users, they are frustrating and expensive. Keyfactor's 2024 report mentions that a single outage from an expired machine identity is 2.86 million
My proposal: Merge Assurance Agent
This pull request adds Merge Assurance—a built-in, self-healing agent for the Python SDK. You can turn it on with a single line:
client.remediation.enable_assurance().How to try it
Unit tests:
End-to-end demo:
You'll see the agent detect, refresh, and report on credential status in real time. You can change LOG_LEVEL to DEBUG to WARNING.
Next steps
This is a production-ready proof of concept. I'd love your feedback and am happy to discuss how to make this a seamless part of the SDK.
