Add support for namespace alias #33

m-y-mo · 2025-10-23T12:00:34Z

This allows toolboxes, taskflows etc. to be referenced using a simplied and shortened id specified either in a config file or in the yaml file itself. A bit like using namespace in c++ or import packages as p in python.

Pull Request Overview

This PR implements namespace aliasing functionality to simplify references to taskflows, toolboxes, and personalities. Instead of using full paths like GitHubSecurityLab/seclab-taskflow-agent/toolboxes/memcache, users can define shorter aliases (e.g., seclab-ta) either inline in YAML files or via a centralized namespace configuration file.

Key Changes:

Added support for namespace_aliases field in YAML files and namespace_config file reference
Implemented alias resolution mechanism through copy_with_alias() and canonicalize_toolboxes() functions
Updated toolbox and resource references to use the shortened alias format

Reviewed Changes

Copilot reviewed 6 out of 6 changed files in this pull request and generated 3 comments.

+        for k,v in alias_dict.items():

This code will raise an IndexError if the toolbox name equals the alias value exactly (without a trailing path). Add a length check: if tb.startswith(v) and len(tb) > len(v) and tb[len(v)] == '/':

+                for ak in alias_keys:

+                        new_dict[new_key] = v


The loop over alias_keys looks inefficient. I think something like this would be better:

Suggested change

alias_keys = alias_dict.keys()

for k,v in original_dict.items():

for ak in alias_keys:

if k.startswith(ak) and len(k) > len(ak) and k[len(ak)] == '/':

new_key = alias_dict[ak] + k[len(ak):]

new_dict[new_key] = v

for k,v in original_dict.items():

ak = k.split('/')[0]

av = alias_dict[ak]

if alias_value:

new_key = av + k[len(ak):]

new_dict[new_key] = v

Same comment as above about looping over all the aliases.
