Open-source AI agents

An AI agent is a program that uses a language model to decide what to do next, calls tools such as a browser, a code interpreter or an API, and repeats until the task is done. The projects here range from frameworks for building your own agents to finished agents that write code, browse the web or run business workflows.

How to choose

Compare three things. Which models it can use: a single provider, or any OpenAI-compatible endpoint including local ones. How it limits what the agent may do: sandboxing, approval steps and permission lists. And whether it keeps memory between steps and sessions. An agent that runs code or shell commands should run in a sandbox, so check that before giving it access to your machine.
