+```
+
+### 3. Network Security
+
+- Configure firewall to allow only necessary ports
+- Use HTTPS for all API communications
+- Implement rate limiting for API requests
+- Set up monitoring for suspicious activities
+
+## Service Configuration
+
+### 1. Systemd Service
+
+Create `/etc/systemd/system/aport-langgraph.service`:
+
+```ini
+[Unit]
+Description=APort LangGraph Integration Service
+After=network.target
+
+[Service]
+Type=simple
+User=aport-service
+Group=aport-service
+WorkingDirectory=/opt/aport-langgraph/aport-integrations/examples/agent-frameworks/langgraph
+Environment=PYTHONPATH=/opt/aport-langgraph/aport-integrations/examples/agent-frameworks/langgraph/src
+EnvironmentFile=/etc/aport/credentials
+ExecStart=/usr/bin/python3 -m uvicorn main:app --host 0.0.0.0 --port 8000
+Restart=always
+RestartSec=10
+
+[Install]
+WantedBy=multi-user.target
+```
+
+### 2. Enable and Start Service
+
+```bash
+sudo systemctl daemon-reload
+sudo systemctl enable aport-langgraph
+sudo systemctl start aport-langgraph
+sudo systemctl status aport-langgraph
+```
+
+## Monitoring and Logging
+
+### 1. Log Configuration
+
+Configure structured logging in your application:
+
+```python
+import logging
+import json
+from datetime import datetime
+
+class ProductionFormatter(logging.Formatter):
+    def format(self, record):
+        log_entry = {
+            "timestamp": datetime.utcnow().isoformat(),
+            "level": record.levelname,
+            "message": record.getMessage(),
+            "module": record.module,
+            "function": record.funcName,
+            "line": record.lineno
+        }
+        return json.dumps(log_entry)
+
+# Configure logging
+logging.basicConfig(
+    level=logging.INFO,
+    format='%(message)s',
+    handlers=[
+        logging.FileHandler('/var/log/aport/langgraph-integration.log'),
+        logging.StreamHandler()
+    ]
+)
+
+for handler in logging.getLogger().handlers:
+    handler.setFormatter(ProductionFormatter())
+```
+
+### 2. Health Check Endpoint
+
+Implement health checks for monitoring:
+
+```python
+async def health_check():
+    """Health check endpoint for load balancers."""
+    try:
+        # Test APort connectivity
+        client = APortClient()
+        # Perform a lightweight verification test
+        return {"status": "healthy", "timestamp": datetime.utcnow().isoformat()}
+    except Exception as e:
+        return {"status": "unhealthy", "error": str(e)}
+```
+
+### 3. Metrics Collection
+
+Monitor key metrics:
+- Verification success/failure rates
+- Response times
+- Error rates
+- Resource usage (CPU, memory)
+
+## Performance Optimization
+
+### 1. Connection Pooling
+
+Configure connection pooling for better performance:
+
+```python
+# In your APort client configuration
+client = APortClient(
+    api_key=os.getenv("APORT_API_KEY"),
+    connection_pool_size=10,
+    timeout=30
+)
+```
+
+### 2. Caching
+
+Implement verification result caching:
+
+```python
+import redis
+from functools import wraps
+
+redis_client = redis.Redis(host='localhost', port=6379, db=0)
+
+def cache_verification(ttl=300):
+    def decorator(func):
+        @wraps(func)
+        async def wrapper(*args, **kwargs):
+            cache_key = f"verification:{hash(str(args) + str(kwargs))}"
+            cached_result = redis_client.get(cache_key)
+            
+            if cached_result:
+                return json.loads(cached_result)
+            
+            result = await func(*args, **kwargs)
+            redis_client.setex(cache_key, ttl, json.dumps(result))
+            return result
+        return wrapper
+    return decorator
+```
+
+### 3. Async Optimization
+
+Use async/await properly for better performance:
+
+```python
+# Batch verification requests
+async def verify_batch(verifications):
+    tasks = [
+        client.verify_checkpoint(**verification)
+        for verification in verifications
+    ]
+    return await asyncio.gather(*tasks, return_exceptions=True)
+```
+
+## Backup and Recovery
+
+### 1. Configuration Backup
+
+```bash
+# Backup configuration
+sudo tar -czf /backup/aport-config-$(date +%Y%m%d).tar.gz \
+    /opt/aport-langgraph/.env \
+    /etc/aport/ \
+    /etc/systemd/system/aport-langgraph.service
+```
+
+### 2. Checkpoint Data Backup
+
+If using persistent checkpoint storage:
+
+```bash
+# Backup checkpoint database
+pg_dump langgraph_checkpoints > /backup/checkpoints-$(date +%Y%m%d).sql
+```
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Common Issues
+
+1. **Connection timeouts**
+   - Check network connectivity to APort API
+   - Verify firewall rules
+   - Increase timeout values if needed
+
+2. **Authentication failures**
+   - Verify API key is correct and active
+   - Check API key permissions in APort dashboard
+   - Ensure proper environment variable loading
+
+3. **Memory issues**
+   - Monitor memory usage with `htop` or `ps`
+   - Implement proper cleanup in long-running processes
+   - Consider increasing available memory
+
+### Debug Mode
+
+For troubleshooting, temporarily enable debug mode:
+
+```bash
+# Set debug environment variables
+export DEBUG=true
+export LOG_LEVEL=DEBUG
+
+# Restart service
+sudo systemctl restart aport-langgraph
+```
+
+### Log Analysis
+
+```bash
+# View recent logs
+sudo tail -f /var/log/aport/langgraph-integration.log
+
+# Search for errors
+sudo grep -i error /var/log/aport/langgraph-integration.log
+
+# Analyze verification patterns
+sudo grep "verification" /var/log/aport/langgraph-integration.log | jq .
+```
+
+## Scaling Considerations
+
+### Horizontal Scaling
+
+- Use load balancers to distribute traffic
+- Implement stateless design for easy scaling
+- Consider container deployment with Docker/Kubernetes
+
+### Database Scaling
+
+- Use read replicas for checkpoint storage
+- Implement connection pooling
+- Consider sharding for large datasets
+
+### Caching Strategy
+

+# LangGraph APort Integration
+
+A comprehensive integration that adds **APort pre-act verification** to LangGraph workflow nodes, enabling secure and policy-driven state transitions in AI agent workflows.
+
+## Overview
+
+This integration allows you to protect LangGraph workflow nodes with APort's agent identity verification system. It provides **node-level security** where each node execution can be verified against policies before running.
+
+### What This Is
+
+- **Pre-act verification guards** for LangGraph nodes
+- **Policy-based authorization** before node execution
+- **Runtime checks** using APort agent verification
+- **Node-level security** for AI agent workflows
+- **Node authorization** system for state machine protection
+
+### What This Is NOT
+
+- Not a LangGraph checkpoint saver implementation (BaseCheckpointSaver)
+- Not a persistence layer for state storage
+- Not related to LangGraph's built-in checkpoint system
+
+The term "checkpoint" in this integration refers to **verification points** where policy checks occur before node execution, implementing **node authorization** patterns.
+
+### Key Features
+
+- **Node Protection**: Verify agent permissions before node execution
+- **Real Policy Support**: Uses actual APort policies like `payments.refund.v1`, `data.export.v1`
+- **Real-time Verification**: Sub-100ms verification checks with proper API structure
+- **Error Handling**: Graceful degradation and fallback strategies
+- **Audit Trail**: Comprehensive logging of verification events
+- **Production Ready**: Both mock (development) and real (production) implementations
+
+## Quick Start
+
+### Prerequisites
+
+- Python 3.8+
+- LangGraph 0.2.0+
+- APort account and API key
+
+### Installation
+
+```bash
+# Install dependencies
+pip install -r requirements.txt
+
+# Set up environment variables
+cp .env.example .env
+# Edit .env with your APort credentials
+```
+
+### Basic Usage
+
+```python
+from langgraph_aport import APortCheckpointGuard
+from langgraph.graph import StateGraph
+
+# Initialize the guard
+guard = APortCheckpointGuard(
+    api_key="your_aport_api_key",
+    default_policy="payments.refund.v1"  # Real APort policy
+)
+
+# Create a protected node for refund processing
+@guard.require_verification(policy="payments.refund.v1")
+async def process_refund(state, config=None):
+    # Your refund processing logic here
+    return {
+        "refund_processed": True,
+        "amount": state.get("amount"),
+        "currency": state.get("currency", "USD")
+    }
+
+# Create a protected node for data export
+@guard.require_verification(policy="data.export.v1")
+async def export_data(state, config=None):
+    # Your data export logic here
+    return {
+        "export_completed": True,
+        "record_count": state.get("record_count", 0)
+    }
+
+# Create your workflow
+workflow = StateGraph(YourStateSchema)
+workflow.add_node("refund", process_refund)
+workflow.add_node("export", export_data)
+workflow.set_entry_point("refund")
+
+# Compile and run with proper context
+app = workflow.compile()
+result = await app.ainvoke({
+    "agent_id": "agt_user_123", 
+    "amount": 100.50,
+    "currency": "USD",
+    "record_count": 1500
+})
+```
+
+## API Reference
+
+### APortCheckpointGuard
+
+Main class for adding APort verification to LangGraph workflows.
+
+#### Constructor

+    api_key: Optional[str] = None,           # APort API key
+    base_url: Optional[str] = None,          # APort API base URL
+    default_policy: str = "workflow.transition.v1",  # Default verification policy
+    strict_mode: bool = True,                # Whether to fail on verification errors
+    use_mock: bool = True                    # Use mock client for development
+)
+```
+
+#### Methods

+    agent_id_extractor=lambda state: state.get("user_id")
+)
+async def my_node(state, config=None):
+    return {"result": "processed"}
+```
+
+##### `protect_graph(graph, agent_id_extractor=None, checkpoint_policies=None)`
+
+Protect an entire StateGraph with verification.

+
+### Verification Flow
+
+1. **Node Execution**: LangGraph attempts to execute a protected node
+2. **Agent Extraction**: Guard extracts agent ID from state
+3. **Policy Resolution**: Determines which policy to apply
+4. **APort Verification**: Calls APort API to verify agent permissions
+5. **Decision**: Allow/deny execution based on verification result
+6. **Execution/Fallback**: Execute node or apply fallback strategy
+
+## Workflow Patterns
+
+### Basic State Machine
+
+See [`workflows/basic_workflow.py`](workflows/basic_workflow.py) for a simple workflow with APort verification.
+
+```bash
+python workflows/basic_workflow.py
+```
+
+### Advanced Workflow
+
+See [`workflows/multi_stage_workflow.py`](workflows/multi_stage_workflow.py) for a multi-stage workflow with different verification policies.
+
+```bash
+python workflows/multi_stage_workflow.py
+```
+
+### Error Handling
+
+See [`workflows/error_handling.py`](workflows/error_handling.py) for error handling and recovery strategies.
+
+```bash
+python workflows/error_handling.py
+```
+
+## Production Deployment
+
+### Prerequisites
+
+Before deploying to production, ensure you have:
+
+1. **Real APort API Access**: Valid API key and access to APort services
+2. **Policy Configuration**: Actual policies configured in your APort dashboard
+3. **Dependencies**: Install production HTTP client
+
+```bash
+# Install production dependencies
+pip install aiohttp>=3.9.0
+```
+
+### Production Configuration
+
+```python
+# Production setup with real APort client
+guard = APortCheckpointGuard(
+    api_key="your_production_aport_api_key",
+    base_url="https://api.aport.io",
+    use_mock=False,  # Use real APort API
+    strict_mode=True  # Fail on verification errors
+)
+```
+
+### API Structure
+
+The integration uses the real APort API structure:
+
+- **Endpoint**: `POST /api/verify/policy/{policy_id}`
+- **Method**: `verify_policy(agent_id, policy_id, context)`
+- **Response**: `{"decision": {"allow": bool, "decision_id": str}, "verified": bool}`
+
+### Real Policy Examples
+
+```python
+# Use actual APort policies
+policies = {
+    "payments.refund.v1": {"amount": 75.50, "currency": "USD"},
+    "data.export.v1": {"data_type": "user_data", "record_count": 150},
+    "messaging.v1": {"message_sent": True},
+    "admin.access.v1": {"operation": "admin_access", "security_level": "high"}
+}
+```
+
+### Monitoring and Logging
+
+Enable comprehensive logging for production:
+
+```python
+import logging
+
+logging.basicConfig(level=logging.INFO)
+logger = logging.getLogger(__name__)
+
+# Guard will automatically log verification events
+guard = APortCheckpointGuard(
+    api_key="your_api_key",
+    use_mock=False
+)
+```
+
+## Testing
+
+Run the comprehensive test suite:
+
+```bash
+# Install test dependencies
+pip install pytest pytest-asyncio pytest-mock
+
+# Run all tests
+pytest tests/ -v
+
+# Run specific test categories
+pytest tests/test_checkpoint_guard.py -v
+pytest tests/test_client.py -v
+pytest tests/test_integration.py -v
+
+# Run with coverage
+pytest tests/ --cov=src --cov-report=html
+```
+
+### Test Categories
+
+- **Unit Tests**: Test individual components (`test_client.py`, `test_checkpoint_guard.py`)
+- **Integration Tests**: Test real-world scenarios (`test_integration.py`)
+- **Mock Tests**: Validate mock behavior and development setup
+- **Error Handling Tests**: Verify graceful failure modes
+- **Performance Tests**: Test concurrent operations and scaling
+
+## Error Handling
+
+### Strict Mode vs. Graceful Degradation
+
+```python
+# Strict mode - fails on verification errors
+strict_guard = APortCheckpointGuard(strict_mode=True)
+
+# Graceful mode - continues with limited functionality
+graceful_guard = APortCheckpointGuard(strict_mode=False)
+
+@graceful_guard.require_verification()
+async def resilient_node(state, config=None):
+    if state.get("_aport_verification_error"):
+        # Fallback logic
+        return {"result": "limited_operation"}
+    return {"result": "full_operation"}
+```
+
+### Custom Error Handling
+
+```python
+from langgraph_aport.exceptions import VerificationError, CheckpointError
+
+try:
+    result = await guard.verify_transition(...)
+except VerificationError as e:
+    logger.warning(f"Verification failed: {e}")
+    # Handle verification failure
+except CheckpointError as e:
+    logger.error(f"Checkpoint error: {e}")
+    # Handle checkpoint system error
+```
+
+## Best Practices
+
+### 1. Agent ID Extraction
+
+Always provide clear agent ID extraction strategies:
+
+```python
+def extract_agent_id(state):
+    # Try multiple fields with fallbacks
+    return (
+        state.get("agent_id") or 
+        state.get("user_id") or 
+        state.get("session_id") or
+        "anonymous_agent"
+    )
+```
+
+### 2. Policy Naming
+
+Use standard APort policy identifiers:
+
+```python
+"payments.refund.v1"        # Refund processing
+"payments.charge.v1"        # Payment processing  
+"data.export.v1"           # Data export operations
+"messaging.v1"             # Messaging and notifications
+"admin.access.v1"          # Administrative access
+"repo.v1"                  # Repository operations
+```
+
+### 3. Context Enrichment
+
+Provide rich context for verification:
+
+```python
+context = {
+    "operation": "data_export",
+    "data_classification": "sensitive",
+    "user_role": state.get("user_role"),
+    "request_source": "api",
+    "timestamp": datetime.utcnow().isoformat()
+}
+```
+
+### 4. Monitoring and Logging
+
+Implement comprehensive logging:
+
+```python
+import logging
+
+logger = logging.getLogger(__name__)
+
+# Log verification events
+logger.info(f"Verification successful for {agent_id} on {policy}")
+logger.warning(f"Verification failed for {agent_id}: {error}")
+```
