agent-sdk-go
agent-sdk-go is an open-source Go framework for building stateful AI agents with durable execution. It is designed to keep agent state, tool calls, and execution loops resilient across process crashes and restarts. By providing primitives for persisting state and replaying execution, the SDK enables developers to create robust, long-running AI agent workflows. The framework integrates with Go's concurrency model and offers a structured way to manage agent lifecycle, including tool invocations and retries. It abstracts away complexities of manual state management, allowing agents to resume from where they left off after failures. This is particularly useful for production environments where reliability and consistency are critical. The project is hosted on GitHub under the agenticenv organization and is available as open source. It targets developers who want to build AI agents in Go without sacrificing durability. The SDK can be used in various scenarios, from customer support bots to automated decision-making systems.

Problem solved
agent-sdk-go solves the problem of unreliable AI agent execution by providing durable state persistence and crash recovery. It ensures that agent state, active tool calls, and execution loops survive process interruptions, enabling agents to resume work without losing context or duplicating actions.
Use cases
- Building customer support agents that maintain conversation state across restarts
- Automating multi-step workflows with persistent tool calls
- Developing resilient background agents that can recover from failures
- Orchestrating human-in-the-loop approval processes
- Creating stateful chatbots with durable memory
- Running long-lived autonomous agents that handle intermittent infrastructure issues
Audience
- Developers
- ML Engineers
- Startups
- Enterprise
