Model-agnostic agent framework prioritizing type-safe structured outputs, dependency injection, and testability.
Why it mattersModel-agnostic agent framework prioritizing type-safe structured outputs, dependency injection, and testability.
When not to use itWhen you need a stable long-lived API surface today, or heavy multi-agent orchestration features.
Risk noteRapidly evolving API surface; pin minor versions and re-run your evals on every upgrade.

The AI-era grade
AI familiarity: low
The project or its current major version postdates common model training cutoffs — expect agents to generate outdated or invented APIs. Verify everything.
This grade is the maintainer’s dated judgment about mainstream model training data — not a benchmark result. Re-graded on major releases. The grading rules live in the repository’s curation policy.
