About Agent Platforms and Frameworks

Framework choices can introduce unnecessary coupling. Compare agent platform abstractions against a small task and determine when custom orchestration is simpler.

Agent Platforms and Frameworks Course Objectives

  • Compare framework tool, state, and execution abstractions.
  • Specify the same bounded task across two frameworks.
  • Document a framework selection with explicit trade-offs.

Pre-requisites

  • Basic programming and API integration experience.
  • Familiarity with agent loops and workflow state.

Lab Setup

  • Computer with a code editor and compatible local framework runtimes.
  • Use mocked model responses or a local model.
  • Remote API accounts are optional and must be nonproduction; no paid platform is assumed.

Detailed Course Outline

Proposed modules

Module 1: Platform abstractions

  • OpenAI Agents SDK
  • OpenAI agent APIs
  • Microsoft Agent Framework
  • Google ADK

Practical outcome: Compare task and tool interfaces across platform examples.

Module 2: Orchestration choices

  • LangChain / LangGraph
  • n8n
  • Framework comparison
  • Framework vs custom orchestration

Practical outcome: Select an orchestration approach against explicit requirements.

Practical exercise

  • Implement or simulate a small task in two approaches and compare testability and dependencies.
