# Inngest AgentKit — Deterministic TS Agent Networks

> Inngest AgentKit builds TypeScript multi-agent networks with deterministic routing, tools, and durable workflow infrastructure from Inngest.

## Install

Save the content below to `.claude/skills/` or append to your `CLAUDE.md`:

## Quick Use

1. Install the verified package or repo entrypoint:

```bash
npm i @inngest/agent-kit inngest
```

2. Run the first local check:

```bash
npm run dev
```

3. Add a repeatable verification command:

```bash
npm test
```

## Intro

Inngest AgentKit is a verified GitHub-backed tool for modern AI and developer workflows, sourced from `inngest/agent-kit` with 858 stars and a Apache-2.0 license snapshot. Best for: TypeScript teams that need multi-agent workflows but also want deterministic orchestration, queues, retries, and scheduling. Works with: TypeScript, Inngest functions, tool definitions, MCP examples, event-driven workflows. Setup time: 12 minutes. Use it when you need a concrete, repeatable path rather than another one-off shell snippet.

## Operating Pattern

### Fit check

| Question | Practical answer |
|---|---|
| What do you install? | `@inngest/agent-kit` from `inngest/agent-kit` |
| What is the first command? | `npm run dev` |
| What proves it works? | `npm test` |
| How long should a pilot take? | 12 minutes for a small repo or sandbox |

### Adoption loop

1. Run the tool on a disposable branch or sandbox project.
2. Capture before/after output so reviewers can see the exact effect.
3. Add the smallest CI or local check that prevents regressions.
4. Document owner, upgrade command, and rollback command in the repo.

### Recommended use

Treat each agent handoff as a workflow transition, not just a chat message. That gives you retries, observability, and idempotency where production agents need it.

### Guardrails

Keep tool outputs small and typed. Deterministic routing becomes fragile when every tool returns unconstrained prose.

### Rollout checklist

- Pin the package or release version before using it in CI.
- Keep credentials in environment variables or the platform secret store.
- Add one owner who is responsible for upgrades and breaking-change triage.
- Re-check the GitHub repo before writing docs that mention APIs or install paths.

### FAQ

**Q: Is this production-ready?**
A: The repo exists at `https://github.com/inngest/agent-kit` and has 858 GitHub stars. Treat the first rollout as a controlled pilot until your team has tested install, rollback, and CI behavior.

**Q: Why use it instead of a generic script?**
A: The value is repeatability: a named package, a documented command, a source repo, and a small verification path that can be reviewed by teammates.

**Q: What should I measure first?**
A: Measure setup time against the 12 minutes target, count how many files or tasks it changes, and record whether the CI command catches the same issue locally.

## 快速使用

1. 安装已验证的包或仓库入口：

```bash
npm i @inngest/agent-kit inngest
```

2. 跑第一次本地检查：

```bash
npm run dev
```

3. 加一个可重复验证命令：

```bash
npm test
```

## 简介

Inngest AgentKit 是一个已通过 GitHub 仓库验证的现代 AI / 开发者工具，来源 `inngest/agent-kit`，当前星标快照 858，许可证 Apache-2.0。适合：需要多 agent 工作流，同时希望有确定性编排、队列、重试和调度能力的 TypeScript 团队。兼容：TypeScript、Inngest function、工具定义、MCP 示例、事件驱动工作流。装机时间：12 minutes。当你需要的是可重复落地路径，而不是一次性 shell 片段时，用它。

## 操作模式

### 适配检查

| 问题 | 实用答案 |
|---|---|
| 安装什么？ | 来自 `inngest/agent-kit` 的 `@inngest/agent-kit` |
| 第一条命令？ | `npm run dev` |
| 如何证明可用？ | `npm test` |
| 小范围试点多久？ | 小仓库或 sandbox 约 12 minutes |

### 接入循环

1. 先在一次性分支或 sandbox 项目里跑。
2. 记录 before / after 输出，让 reviewer 看见实际影响。
3. 加最小的 CI 或本地检查，防止同类问题回归。
4. 在仓库文档里写清 owner、升级命令和回滚命令。

### 推荐用法

把每次 agent handoff 当成工作流状态转移，而不只是聊天消息。这样生产 agent 需要的重试、可观测性和幂等性才有落点。

### 风险边界

工具输出保持小且有类型。当每个工具都返回无限制长文本时，确定性路由会变脆弱。

### 推广检查表

- 进入 CI 前固定包版本或 release 版本。
- 凭据放进环境变量或平台 secret store。
- 指定一个 owner 负责升级和 breaking change 分流。
- 文档里写 API 或安装路径前，重新核验 GitHub 仓库。

### FAQ

**Q: 能直接上生产吗？**
A: 仓库已验证存在：`https://github.com/inngest/agent-kit`，GitHub 星标 858。第一次上线仍建议控制试点，先验证安装、回滚和 CI 行为。

**Q: 为什么不用普通脚本？**
A: 价值在可重复：有命名包、文档化命令、源仓库和可被团队 review 的最小验证路径。

**Q: 第一步应该量什么？**
A: 先量装机时间是否接近 12 minutes，它改了多少文件或任务，以及 CI 命令是否能在本地抓到同类问题。
