Shared core dependencies for Braintrust packages
Decision gist · record as of 2026-08-14
Yes, if you are using other Braintrust packages that depend on it—it will be installed automatically. No, if you are evaluating it as a standalone utility: the package is aging, its license is undocumented, and its actual exports are not described. Install only as a transitive dependency or after verifying the license.AI-flagged interpretation of the facts on this page — verify before relying
Before you install
- Requires Python 3.8.0 or later.
- Low install friction with a pure Python wheel distribution.
- Maintenance status is aging—last release was 459 days ago—so expect infrequent updates.

What it is and what it does
Braintrust Core is a minimal shared library designed to reduce code duplication across the Braintrust ecosystem by bundling common dependencies and utilities. It has no external runtime dependencies of its own, making it lightweight to install. The package supports Python 3.8 and later and is distributed as a pure Python wheel, ensuring broad compatibility.
As a foundational library, it is intended to be imported by other Braintrust packages rather than used directly by end users. Its value lies in centralizing shared code, but without clear documentation of what utilities it actually exports, it is difficult to assess its utility outside the Braintrust ecosystem context.
Use it for
- Dependency for other Braintrust ecosystem packages that need access to shared core utilities.
- Reducing maintenance burden when multiple Braintrust packages share common code.
- Providing a stable, versioned foundation for internal Braintrust package development.
