File: helix_code/gcp_integrations.py

# [FACT] Cloud Pub/Sub integration for cross-node federation messaging
class CloudPubSubFederation:
    """[HYPOTHESIS] Pub/Sub provides at-least-once delivery guarantees
    required for constitutional quorum attestation."""

    def __init__(self, project_id: Optional[str] = None):
        self.project_id = project_id or os.getenv('GOOGLE_CLOUD_PROJECT')
        self.topic_name = "constitutional-federation"
        self.publisher = pubsub_v1.PublisherClient()
        self.topic_path = self.publisher.topic_path(self.project_id, self.topic_name)

    def publish_federation_event(self, event: FederationEvent) -> str:
        """[FACT] Publish federation event to Pub/Sub topic."""
        message_data = json.dumps(asdict(event)).encode('utf-8')
