What is go-agent: an agent framework?
🚀 Introducing go-agent — a fast, composable AI agent framework for Go. Agents can expose themselves as UTCP tools, enabling recursive, inspectable workflows like: LLM → CodeMode → Agent → more tools. It runs Go snippets safely with CodeMode, orchestrates any UTCP provider, supports multi-agent reasoning, parallel tool runs, streaming, and gives you real execution instead of prompt guessing.
Problem
Users currently create AI agents in Go without a structured framework, requiring manual implementation of workflows, tool integration, and code execution safeguards. Manual implementation of workflows, tool integration, and code execution safeguards lead to fragmented solutions, unsafe code execution risks, and limited scalability for complex agent-based systems.
Solution
An open-source Go framework enabling developers to build composable AI agents. Agents expose UTCP tools for recursive workflows, safely execute Go snippets via CodeMode, and orchestrate multi-agent reasoning with parallel tool runs and streaming. Example: LLM → CodeMode → Agent → additional tools in inspectable workflows.
Customers
Go developers and software engineers building AI-driven applications, backend systems requiring modular agent architectures, and teams needing safe LLM-generated code execution. Demographics: 25-40yo, tech-focused companies, proficiency in Go and distributed systems.
Unique Features
UTCP tool exposure for recursive agent workflows, sandboxed Go code execution via CodeMode, native support for multi-agent reasoning/parallelism, and real execution tracing instead of LLM guesswork.
