AgentKit
AgentKit is a general-purpose framework for tool-using LLM agents. It provides workspace isolation, a unified LLM abstraction, a tool-execution loop, and both CLI and Python SDK entry points.
Current Capabilities
- Strong workspace isolation: all agent-visible file access goes through
WorkspaceFS - Unified LLM abstraction:
ConversationItem/ConversationState/UnifiedLLMRequest/UnifiedLLMResponse - Provider support (sync, non-streaming, text)
- OpenAI (
responses/chat_completions) - Anthropic (
messages) - Gemini (
generateContent) - Qwen (OpenAI-compatible
chat_completions) - vLLM (OpenAI-compatible
chat_completions)
- OpenAI (
- Registry-based tool system with built-in tools under
src/agentkit/tools/library/and custom tool loading from project file/directory entries - Agent loop that coordinates model reasoning and tool execution under step/time budgets
- Run logs written to
workspace/logs/run_<run_id>.jsonl
Status
- The repository includes unit tests for the agent loop, CLI, tool system, runlog, and the OpenAI / Anthropic / Gemini / Qwen / vLLM provider adapters
- There is no smoke-test coverage against live upstream APIs yet, so a final end-to-end validation against the target model is still recommended before production use
