Unlocking Production-Ready AI Agents: My Evaluation Insights
In the burgeoning world of AI, distinguishing between flashy demos and robust frameworks is crucial. I’ve been closely evaluating agents like LangChain, CrewAI, AutoGPT, and OpenClaw, aiming to uncover what truly defines a production-ready solution.
My Criteria for Success:
- Persistent Memory: Beyond simple in-context windows.
- Real Tool Usage: Effective error recovery for I/O, shell, browser, and APIs.
- Multi-Model Support: Seamless swapping between various models without rewrites.
- Extensibility: Skill/plugin systems vs. hardcoded chains.
- Daemon Operations: Running as a service, not just a manual CLI.
- Security Boundaries: Robust sandboxing, permissions, and audit logs.
Many frameworks excel at one or two points but falter when it counts. What’s on your checklist?
