Agent Frameworks Landscape
A mental map for navigating the agent framework landscape. Orchestration frameworks vs Agent SDKs vs Agent Servers.
02
What's an agent, anyway?
An LLM running tools in a loop. Let's unpack the three primitives: models, tools, and the agentic loop.
03
Where orchestration lives
App-driven vs. agent-driven control flow: who owns the orchestration, the app or the agent?
04
Two tools to rule them all
Specialized tools encode assumptions about how things should be done. Bash and the filesystem are universal primitives that don't limit the agent.
05
Agent SDK to Agent Server: crossing the service boundary
From embedded library to networked service. What capabilities you need to build when crossing the service boundary.
06
Agent architectures by example
Four real-world projects to showcase different architectural choices: from job agents toOpenClaw personal agents.
07
Going further
Curated references to get deeper into the agent frameworks.
