Agent Runtime Overview
What is Agent Runtime?
Agent Runtime is a general-purpose platform for launching arbitrary AI agent workloads on demand. It orchestrates AI agents (Claude via Agent SDK, OpenCode) in isolated Modal sandboxes, providing a Node.js backend runtime and React client library for building applications with AI agents.
Key principle: The runtime handles session management and agent orchestration - it does not enforce any data schema on the calling application. Data types are passed back to the app, which decides what to do with them.
