Python framework for orchestrating autonomous AI agents that collaborate to accomplish complex tasks. Define agents with specific roles, goals, and backstories, then organize them into crews with sequential or parallel task execution. Supports tool usage (web search, file I/O, API calls), memory, delegation between agents, and human-in-the-loop input. Works with OpenAI, Anthropic, local models, and more. 25K+ GitHub stars. Leading multi-agent framework alongside LangGraph and AutoGen.

AutoGen is an open-source programming framework from Microsoft Research for building AI agents and facilitating cooperation among multiple agents to solve complex tasks through multi-turn conversations. Pioneered conversable agents that interact, use tools, and involve humans in the loop for multi-agent workflows. v0.4 features a redesigned async event-driven architecture with stronger observability, flexible collaboration patterns, and reusable components.

LangGraph is LangChain's framework for building stateful, multi-actor AI agent applications as controllable graphs. It models workflows as nodes and edges, enabling cycles, branching, and human-in-the-loop patterns that simple chains cannot express. Features built-in persistence for conversation memory, streaming support, and fault tolerance. Provides fine-grained control over execution flow while supporting single-agent and multi-agent architectures with shared or independent state.

agentOS is a portable open-source operating system for AI agents that delivers ~6ms cold starts at 32x lower cost than traditional sandboxes. Powered by WebAssembly and V8 isolates, it runs agents like Claude Code and Codex directly inside your process with granular permissions and host-managed tool access for S3, GitHub, and databases. Available as a simple npm package with no special infrastructure or vendor lock-in required.
