| description.long | A managed platform for building and deploying AI agents that break down multi-step requests, retrieve information from knowledge bases and data sources, and execute tasks autonomously. Agents use foundation model reasoning to understand intent, gather relevant context, and coordinate actions across company systems. | A Python library for constructing multi-agent applications that supports various language model providers. It offers core components for defining agent behavior, integrating tools, enforcing safety constraints, coordinating between agents, and enabling human oversight during execution. |
