Strands Agents SDK

The open-source framework you write an agent's logic in - the "brain." Model-agnostic, AWS Bedrock by default. Runs anywhere (laptop, container, Lambda, EC2).

How this fits with the other AWS skill: Strands is the FRAMEWORK (what your agent does). To HOST and DEPLOY a Strands agent on AWS, use aws-harness (the AgentCore runtime). They compose: write with Strands, ship with AgentCore. You can also run Strands with no AWS deployment at all.

Install

pip install strands-agents strands-agents-tools

(A TypeScript SDK also exists - see the docs. Examples below are Python.)

from strands import Agent
