Building Production-Ready AI Agents

" summary

Strands is an open source framework for production agents that runs on Python or TypeScript and is model-agnostic. Live coding shows an agent spun up with a single line of code, tools added by decorating a function with @tool decorator, memory and session management handled by the SDK, built-in observability and MCP client, multi‑agent patterns and agents create agents demos, and an option to deploy to a managed cloud runtime (Agent Core) that actually runs and scales the agent.
