Practical overview
When it fits
Use SRE when the project requires an open-source execution foundation for agentic AI and needs runtime, SDK and CLI layers rather than a visual-only builder or a hosted end-user application.
Who it is for
- Developers building agentic AI applications
- Teams needing self-hosted or cloud-based agent infrastructure
- TypeScript developers creating agents through code
- Builders designing workflows that may span local, cloud and edge execution
Documented uses
- Create AI agents programmatically with a TypeScript SDK
- Run and manage agent lifecycles through an agent runtime
- Develop agent projects through a command-line interface
- Connect agents to LLMs, vector databases, storage and caching through unified resource interfaces
- Move agent applications between local, cloud and edge environments
