Decision gist · record as of 2026-08-14
Yes, if you are already using Stigg for subscription management and need a Python client for the Sidecar. Low install friction and active maintenance are positive signals. However, verify the license terms before committing—the metadata shows 'unclear' status with no published license text. Confirm that deploying and maintaining a separate sidecar instance fits your architecture.AI-flagged interpretation of the facts on this page — verify before relying
Before you install
- Requires a running Stigg Sidecar instance (typically deployed as a Docker container) accessible at the specified host and port.
- Low install friction with a pure Python wheel.
- Actively maintained as of 2 days ago.

What it is and what it does
stigg-sidecar-sdk is a Python client for the Stigg Sidecar, a service that manages customer entitlements and controls access to metered features. It wraps communication with a separately deployed sidecar instance, allowing you to query whether a customer has access to a feature, request metered entitlements with usage counts, and provision customers through the underlying API.
The SDK is async-first and depends on betterproto for protocol buffer support and stigg-api-client-v2 for the underlying API client. It requires Python 3.9 or later and is actively maintained. The main workflow is to initialize a Stigg client with an API key and sidecar host/port, then call methods like get_metered_entitlement() to check access or use the .api property to perform administrative operations.
Use it for
- Check whether a customer has access to a metered feature before allowing them to use it.
- Query entitlements with requested usage counts to enforce usage-based billing or rate limits.
- Provision new customers and manage their entitlements programmatically.
- Integrate feature gating into a SaaS application backed by Stigg's subscription management.
- Build access-control logic that respects customer subscription tiers and feature quotas.
