Your company has 47 AI agents. Nobody knows what they cost, who approved them, or which ones are still running. Three teams built the same summarizer. The security team hasn't audited any of them.

**AgentBreeder fixes this.**

Write one `agent.yaml`. Run `agentbreeder deploy`. Your agent is live — with RBAC, cost tracking, audit trail, and org-wide discoverability. Automatic. Not optional.

## The Problem

AI coding tools make it easy to **build** agents. Nobody has made it easy to **ship** them responsibly.

| What happens today | What happens with AgentBreeder |
|---|---|
| Every framework has its own deploy story | One YAML, any framework, any cloud |
| No RBAC — anyone deploys anything | RBAC validated before the first container builds |
| No cost tracking — $40k surprise cloud bills | Cost attributed per team, per agent, per model |
| No audit trail — "who deployed that?" | Every deploy logged with who, what, when, where |
| No discoverability — duplicate agents everywhere | Org-wide registry — search before you build |
| Governance is bolted on after the fact | Governance is a **structural side effect** of deploying |

**Governance is not configuration. It is a side effect of the pipeline. There is no way to skip it.**

---

## How It Works

```yaml
# agent.yaml — this is the entire config
name: customer-support-agent
version: 1.0.0
team: customer-success
owner: alice@company.com

framework: langgraph          # or: openai_agents, claude_sdk, crewai, google_adk, custom

model:
  primary: claude-sonnet-4
  fallback: gpt-4o

tools:
  - ref: tools/zendesk-mcp    # pull from org registry
  - ref: tools/order-lookup

deploy:
  cloud: gcp                  # or: aws, local, kubernetes
  scaling:
    min: 1
    max: 10
```

```bash
pip install agentbreeder
agentbreeder deploy ./agent.yaml
```

That's it. Eight atomic steps — parse, RBAC, resolve deps, build container, provision infra, deploy, health check, register. If any step fails, the entire deploy rolls back.

---

## Three Ways to Build

All three tiers compile to the same internal format. Same deploy pipeline. Same governance. No lock-in.

| Tier | Who | How | Eject to |
|------|-----|-----|----------|
| **No Code** | PMs, analysts, citizen builders | Visual drag-and-drop canvas — pick model, tools, prompts from the registry | Low Code (view YAML) |
| **Low Code** | ML engineers, DevOps | Write `agent.yaml` in any IDE | Full Code (`agentbreeder eject`) |
| **Full Code** | Senior engineers, researchers | Python/TS SDK with full programmatic control | — |

```python
# Full Code SDK — builder pattern
from agenthub import Agent

agent = (
    Agent("support-agent", version="1.0.0", team="eng")
    .with_model(primary="claude-sonnet-4", fallback="gpt-4o")
    .with_tools(["tools/zendesk-mcp", "tools/order-lookup"])
    .with_prompt(system="You are a helpful customer support agent.")
    .with_deploy(cloud="gcp", min_scale=1, max_scale=10)
)
agent.deploy()
```

## Orchestration

Six strategies. Define in YAML or the visual canvas — both compile to the same pipeline.

```yaml
# orchestration.yaml
name: support-pipeline
version: "1.0.0"
team: customer-success
strategy: router       # router | sequential | parallel | hierarchical | supervisor | fan_out_fan_in

agents:
  triage:
    ref: agents/triage-agent
    routes:
      - condition: billing
        target: billing
      - condition: default
        target: general
  billing:
    ref: agents/billing-agent
    fallback: general
  general:
    ref: agents/general-agent

shared_state:
  type: session_context
  backend: redis

deploy:
  target: gcp
```

Or programmatically with the SDK:

```python
from agenthub import Orchestration

pipeline = (
    Orchestration("support-pipeline", strategy="router", team="eng")
    .add_agent("triage",  ref="agents/triage-agent")
    .add_agent("billing", ref="agents/billing-agent")
    .add_agent("general", ref="agents/general-agent")
    .with_route("triage", condition="billing", target="billing")
    .with_route("triage", condition="default", target="general")
    .with_shared_state(state_type="session_context", backend="redis")
)
pipeline.deploy()
```

---

**Deploy pipeline** — 8 atomic steps. If any fails, the entire deploy rolls back:

1. Parse & validate YAML
2. RBAC check (fail fast if unauthorized)
3. Dependency resolution (tools, prompts, models from registry)
4. Container build (framework-specific Dockerfile)
5. Infrastructure provision (Pulumi)
6. Deploy & health check
7. Auto-register in org registry
8. Return endpoint URL

## "How is this different from LangGraph / CrewAI / Mastra / OpenAI Agents?"

**It's not the same category.**

Agent SDKs help you **build** an agent. AgentBreeder helps you **ship, govern, and operate** it. You use them together — not instead of each other.

**Think of it this way:**

| Analogy | Build tool | Ship/Operate tool |
|---------|-----------|-------------------|
| Code | You write Python | Docker + Kubernetes deploys it |
| Infrastructure | Terraform defines it | CI/CD ships it |
| **Agents** | **LangGraph / CrewAI / Mastra builds it** | **AgentBreeder ships and governs it** |

AgentBreeder is to agents what **Docker + Kubernetes is to microservices** — the deployment, orchestration, and operations layer. Your agent framework is the application; AgentBreeder is the platform.

### The real comparison

| | Agent SDKs | Agent Platforms | AgentBreeder |
|---|---|---|---|
| | LangGraph, CrewAI, Mastra, OpenAI Agents, Claude SDK, Google ADK | Vertex AI Agent Builder, Amazon Bedrock Agents, Azure AI Agent Service | |
| **Purpose** | Build agents | Build + deploy (their way) | Ship + govern + operate (any agent, any cloud) |
| **Framework lock-in** | ✅ You're locked in | ✅ You're locked in | ❌ Bring any framework |
| **Cloud lock-in** | N/A | ✅ Their cloud only | ❌ AWS, GCP, local, K8s |
| **Works with your existing agents** | N/A | ❌ Rewrite required | ✅ Wrap in `agent.yaml`, deploy |
| **Governance** | ❌ Not their problem | ⚠️ Partial, platform-specific | ✅ RBAC, audit, cost — automatic |
| **Org-wide registry** | ❌ | ❌ | ✅ Every deploy auto-registered |
| **Cost attribution** | ❌ | ⚠️ Project-level | ✅ Per team / agent / model |
| **Multi-agent orchestration** | ⚠️ Framework-specific | ⚠️ Limited | ✅ 6 strategies, cross-framework |
| **MCP native** | ⚠️ Varies | ❌ | ✅ Hub + sidecar injection |
| **Open source** | ✅ Most are | ❌ All proprietary | ✅ Apache 2.0 |
| **Vendor lock-in** | Framework | Cloud vendor | **None** |

### vs. Managed Agent Platforms (detailed)

Every cloud vendor now has an agent platform. They all share the same tradeoff: **convenience in exchange for lock-in.** AgentBreeder gives you the convenience without the lock-in.

| | AWS Bedrock Agents | Vertex AI Agent Builder | Azure AI Agent Service | Databricks AgentBricks | Claude Managed Agents | AgentBreeder |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| **Cloud** | AWS only | GCP only | Azure only | Databricks only | Anthropic only | Any cloud + local |
| **Frameworks** | Bedrock SDK | Vertex SDK / ADK | Azure SDK | Mosaic Agent Framework | Claude SDK | LangGraph, CrewAI, OpenAI, Claude, ADK, custom |
| **Bring your own agent code** | ❌ Rewrite in their SDK | ❌ Rewrite in their SDK | ❌ Rewrite in their SDK | ❌ Rewrite in their SDK | ❌ Claude only | ✅ Any framework, wrap in YAML |
| **Multi-cloud deploy** | ❌ | ❌ | ❌ | ❌ | ❌ | ✅ Same config → any target |
| **Migrate away** | Painful (SDK lock-in) | Painful (SDK lock-in) | Painful (SDK lock-in) | Painful (platform lock-in) | Painful (API lock-in) | Trivial (it's your code + YAML) |
| **RBAC** | IAM (AWS-specific) | IAM (GCP-specific) | RBAC (Azure-specific) | Unity Catalog | API keys | Framework-agnostic RBAC |
| **Cost tracking** | CloudWatch + Cost Explorer | GCP Billing | Azure Cost Management | DBU tracking | Usage dashboard | Built-in: per team / agent / model |
| **Org-wide registry** | ❌ | ❌ | ❌ | Unity Catalog (models) | ❌ | ✅ Agents, tools, prompts, models |
| **Multi-agent orchestration** | Step Functions (manual) | Limited | Limited | Limited | Tool use (single agent) | 6 strategies (router, sequential, parallel, hierarchical, supervisor, fan-out) |
| **MCP support** | ❌ | ❌ | ❌ | ❌ | ✅ Native | ✅ Hub + sidecar injection |
| **Open source** | ❌ | ❌ | ❌ | ❌ | ❌ | ✅ Apache 2.0 |
| **Data residency** | Their cloud | Their cloud | Their cloud | Their platform | Their API | **Your infrastructure** |
| **Pricing** | Pay per invocation + hosting | Pay per invocation + hosting | Pay per invocation + hosting | DBU consumption | Pay per token | Free (you pay your own cloud costs) |

**The pattern:** Every managed platform wants you to rewrite your agent in their SDK, deploy to their cloud, and pay their markup. When you want to switch, you rewrite everything.

**AgentBreeder's position:** Your agent code stays yours. Your cloud stays yours. Your data stays yours. AgentBreeder is the deploy + governance layer that works across all of them.

### What AgentBreeder is NOT

- **Not a replacement for LangGraph.** Use LangGraph to build your agent's logic. Use AgentBreeder to deploy, govern, and operate it.
- **Not a replacement for CrewAI.** Build your crew in CrewAI. Ship it with AgentBreeder.
- **Not a replacement for Mastra.** Build your TypeScript agent in Mastra. Wrap it in `agent.yaml`. Deploy it anywhere.
- **Not competing with Bedrock / Vertex / Azure.** They're managed services. AgentBreeder is open-source infrastructure. Different model, different tradeoffs.
- **Not another agent framework.** We don't have opinions about how you build agents. We have opinions about how you ship them responsibly.
- **Not a managed service.** It's open-source infrastructure you run. No vendor lock-in. No data leaves your cloud.
