+abstract: >-
+  An agent library in which every model call, tool call and state transition is a plain object that can be logged, snapshotted and replayed. Modern techniques -- tools, structured outputs, context compaction, durable checkpoints, guardrails, subagents and evaluations-as-tests -- are opt-in primitives rather than hidden control flow. The core has no required dependencies.
