Strands Agents

Put agents to work your way.

Open source tools for building and running AI agents in Python and TypeScript. Use Strands harness for a preconfigured agent, or build your own with the Harness SDK.

Python harness version TypeScript harness version Python SDK version TypeScript SDK version License Stars

Documentation ◆ Samples ◆ Discord

Start here

Choose your starting point: a preconfigured agent with Strands harness, or your own agent built with the Harness SDK. Both are customizable.

Strands harness

Start with a preconfigured agent that includes tools, context management, sessions, and memory. Keep the defaults you like and change what you need.

Get started with Strands harness →

Harness SDK

If instead you want to build your agent from the ground up, reach for the Harness SDK. Choose your models and tools, then configure how your agent manages context, sessions, and memory.

Get started with the Harness SDK →

Why Strands?

  • Start with more already done. Tools, context management, sessions, and memory come configured in Strands harness.
  • Make it yours. Keep useful defaults, replace components, or assemble your own agent with the SDK.
  • Choose your stack. Build in Python or TypeScript with your choice of models and tools.
  • Connect your tools. Use built-in MCP support to connect agents to tools and services.
  • Let agents work together. Delegate tasks and coordinate multiple agents.
