Koog
Koog is a Kotlin‑based framework for building and running AI agents entirely in idiomatic Kotlin, supporting both single‑run agents that process individual inputs and complex workflow agents with custom strategies and configurations. It features pure Kotlin implementation, seamless Model Control Protocol (MCP) integration for enhanced model management, vector embeddings for semantic search, and a flexible system for creating and extending tools that access external systems and APIs. Ready‑to‑use components address common AI engineering challenges, while intelligent history compression optimizes token usage and preserves context. A powerful streaming API enables real‑time response processing and parallel tool calls. Persistent memory allows agents to retain knowledge across sessions and between agents, and comprehensive tracing facilities provide detailed debugging and monitoring.

Swarm
Swarm is an experimental, educational framework developed by OpenAI to explore ergonomic, lightweight multi-agent orchestration. It is designed to be scalable and highly customizable, making it suitable for scenarios involving a large number of independent capabilities and instructions that are challenging to encode into a single prompt. Swarm operates entirely on the client side and, like the Chat Completions API it utilizes, does not store state between calls. This stateless nature allows for the construction of scalable, real-world solutions without a steep learning curve. Swarm agents are distinct from assistants in the assistants API; they are named similarly for convenience but are otherwise completely unrelated. It includes examples demonstrating fundamentals such as setup, function calling, handoffs, and context variables, as well as more complex scenarios like a multi-agent setup for handling different customer service requests in an airline context.

Strands Agents
Strands Agents is an open-source framework designed to help developers build controllable and flexible AI agents using Python and TypeScript. It enables users to create agents by defining tools as simple functions, eliminating the need for complex workflows or orchestration pipelines. The SDK works with any model and cloud provider, giving developers full freedom in how they deploy and scale their agents. It introduces a streamlined agent loop where the model handles reasoning while developers maintain control through code. Features like steering hooks allow developers to validate and guide agent behavior before and after actions are taken. The platform also includes built-in capabilities such as memory management, observability, and evaluation tools. Overall, Strands Agents SDK simplifies agent development while improving reliability, control, and performance.

Claude Agent SDK
The Claude Agent SDK is a developer toolkit that enables the creation of autonomous AI agents powered by Claude, allowing them to perform real-world tasks beyond simple text generation by interacting directly with files, systems, and tools. It provides the same underlying infrastructure used by Claude Code, including an agent loop, context management, and built-in tool execution, and is available for use in Python and TypeScript. With this SDK, developers can build agents that read and write files, execute shell commands, search the web, edit code, and automate complex workflows without needing to implement these capabilities from scratch. It maintains persistent context and state across interactions, enabling agents to operate continuously, reason through multi-step problems, take actions, verify results, and iterate until tasks are completed.
