Agent RT
Documentation

Start with a runnable agent, then move into tools, state, policy, production operations, and extension contracts. The website documentation is organized by task instead of repository layout.

Start here

01
Install Agent RTChoose Python or TypeScript and configure a model provider.
02
Run your first agentMove from a minimal call to tools, streaming, structured output, and limits.
03
Understand the runtime loopSee how model requests, tool execution, state, budgets, and termination fit together.
Section 1

Getting started

From install to first run.

↗SetupInstallation

Supported runtimes, package installation, and provider environment.

 ↗First runQuickstart

Incremental examples for agents, tools, streaming, schemas, and limits.
Section 2

Core concepts

The mental model behind Agent RT.

↗ExecutionRuntime model

The model → tool → model loop, routing, limits, and cancellation.

 ↗CapabilitiesTools & policy

Registries, validation, visibility, permissions, approvals, and guardrails.

 ↗PersistenceState & memory

Messages, workflow state, memory scopes, checkpoints, artifacts, and resumption.
Section 3

Guides

Common adoption and deployment paths.

↗AdoptionMigration

Compatibility surfaces for LangChain, LlamaIndex, OpenAI, and Anthropic applications.

 ↗OperationsProduction patterns

Boundaries, durable execution, sandboxing, observability, evaluation, and deployment.

 ↗RetrievalVector databases

Switch Chroma, Milvus, Pinecone, Qdrant, or Weaviate with environment variables, or use LangChain/LlamaIndex-compatible vector-store imports.

 ↗Usage detailsRuntime guide

Providers, API server, CLI, sandboxes, skills, and migration entry points.
Section 4

Reference

Architecture and contributor workflows.

↗Complete referenceFeatures & defaults

Every major capability, what is enabled by default, what is opt-in, execution order, and how to configure it.

 ↗Framework comparisonAgent RT vs alternatives

Compare runtime features, latency, memory, guardrails, APIs, sandboxing, and portability.

 ↗ExtensionsArchitecture

Module boundaries and the extension contracts that keep the runtime provider-neutral.

 ↗ContributingDevelopment

Repository setup, test matrices, and language-specific workflows.
