About this tool
Agent Kernel is an open-source operating system for scalable, compliant enterprise AI agents. It helps developers and AI engineers build, test, and deploy production-grade AI agents without changing their existing stack. It integrates seamlessly with popular frameworks such as OpenAI, LangGraph, CrewAI, Google ADK, Smolagents, and Pydantic AI, and allows deploying the same agent code to AWS, Azure, GCP, or self-hosted Kubernetes clusters.
Agent Kernel provides a rich set of built-in features including messaging, memory, knowledge bases, guardrails, sandboxed code execution, and observability (with support for Langfuse, OpenLLMetry, and Pydantic Logfire). Each execution flows through the Agent Kernel Execution Broker to a pluggable provider, governed by fail-closed policies for security.
Agent Kernel is certified to ISO 27001 and independently audited against the AICPA SOC 2 framework, ensuring security and compliance. It offers a CLI tool (with commands like ak-init, ak-build, ak-add-capabilities, ak-add-integration, ak-cloud-deploy, and ak-test) to streamline development.
Agent Kernel is free and open-source, suitable for teams that want to build production-grade AI agents without vendor lock-in.
