**Works with:** Node.js 20+ for the docs site; Python 3.10+ mentioned as a prerequisite (README)
**Setup time:** 5–10 minutes
### Key facts (verified)
- README lists `npm run dev` for a local server at `http://localhost:4321/`.
- Docs are built with Astro + Starlight; content lives under `docs/` (README).
- GitHub: 190 stars · 221 forks; pushed 2026-05-12 (GitHub API verified).
## Main
If you’re evaluating Strands Agents, use this doc repo as a “single source of truth”:
- Keep it pinned in your monorepo as a git submodule or a docs mirror for team onboarding.
- Grep for key concepts (tools, memory, MCP) to standardize terminology across your agents.
- When you find gaps, contribute improvements—doc PRs are often easier than code PRs and still high impact.
### README excerpt (verbatim)
This repository contains the documentation for the Strands Agents SDK, a simple yet powerful framework for building and running AI agents. The documentation is built using [Astro](https://astro.build/) with the [Starlight](https://starlight.astro.build/) theme and provides guides, examples, and API references.
The official documentation is available online at: https://strandsagents.com.
## Local Development
### Prerequisites
- Python 3.10+
- Node.js 20+, npm
### Setup and Installation
```bash
npm install
```
### Building and Previewing
Generate the static site:
```bash
npm run build
```
Run a local development server at http://localhost:4321/:
```bash
npm run dev
```
### Writing Documentation
Documentation lives in `docs/` as Markdown files. The site structure is driven by `src/config/navigation.yml` (navigation) and rendered by Astro at build time.
- Pages are written in standard Markdown — no Astro-specific syntax needed for content edits
- Use `` / `` for language-switching code blocks (auto-imported, no import needed)
### FAQ
**Q: Is this the SDK itself?**
A: No—this repo is the documentation site; README links to SDK repos and samples.
**Q: How do I run it locally?**
A: README shows `npm install` then `npm run dev` to serve at port 4321.
**Q: Why clone docs instead of browsing the website?**
A: Cloning enables offline access, grep across guides, and PR-based contributions.

## 简介
这个仓库是 Strands Agents 文档源码，适合做离线参考、快速检索指南细节，或通过 PR 贡献改进。
**最适合：** 正在采用 Strands Agents SDK、需要离线文档与可复现实例的开发者
**适配：** 文档站点需要 Node.js 20+；README 也提到 Python 3.10+ 作为先决条件
**配置时间：** 5–10 分钟
### 关键事实（已验证）
- README 写明 `npm run dev` 会启动本地服务（`http://localhost:4321/`）。
- 文档基于 Astro + Starlight，内容位于 `docs/`（README）。
- GitHub：190 stars · 221 forks；最近更新 2026-05-12（GitHub API 验证）。
## 正文
评估/落地 Strands Agents 时，可以把这个文档仓库当作“单一事实来源”：
- 在团队仓库里固定一个镜像（或 submodule）用于 onboarding。
- 通过 grep 快速定位关键概念（tools、memory、MCP 等），统一团队术语与用法。
- 发现缺口就提文档 PR：通常比改代码更快，但对落地影响很大。
