Open AI and Anthropic already have "Agent SDK" brands. Vercel is "AI SDK". I wish folks would come up with some good names for new projects.

And Google has ADK (Agent Development Kit)

This is my goto SDK, it comes in multiple languages too. I'm going to be wrapping the Go ADK in CUE Nov/Dec, along with Dagger, and rebuild my personal harness from scratch which I worked on last Nov/Dec.

ADK has a graph/workflow concept too: https://adk.dev/graphs/

We started using the ADK before the go sdk was available and went pretty far with using the python one. I hated it in so far as dep management is still a nightmare in python for me. I'm sure I was just holding it wrong, but it was getting to me.

I threw Claude at it to migrate to go sdk finally and had it AB testing it all in a few days. Stuff like that would have taken me forever in the past.

Now to attack some stuff that's in niche as hell jvm languages.

Are you this guy? https://github.com/hofstadter-io/hof/tree/_next Third time I've seen CUE mentioned in this context in as many days.

yup, that is the project I'm going to rewrite from scratch

you want to rewrite hof from scratch? Really curious what you're cooking, as I plan to adopt hof in a project.

It will largely be copy and paste effort, with cleanup. There are a ton of experiments in there I want to remove, mostly undocumented things.

It's mostly a rebranding (verdverm/veg), but also want to tighten things up in the process. Dagger and ADK have also stabilized their APIs on new major versions. CUE has some new features I would like to work in as well

Conceptually, and most of DX wise, it should be nearly the same.

Temporal workflows are my main building block for supporting agents working in multiple steps.

Not to be confused with ACP (Agent Client Protocol).
