🖥️ What this app does

open-agent-sdk-go is a Go-based SDK for building AI agents. It runs the agent loop inside your app, so you do not need a separate command-line tool. It is built for users who want to run agent workflows on Windows with a simple setup.

You can use it to:

• Run AI agent tasks in one place
• Work with tools like file access, web fetch, search, and message handling
• Connect to AI providers such as Anthropic and OpenAI-compatible services
• Use it in cloud apps, local apps, Docker, or CI systems

✅ What you need

Before you download and run the app on Windows, make sure you have:

• A Windows PC
• Internet access
• Enough free disk space for the release files
• Permission to open downloaded files on your system
• An AI provider account if the app asks for one during setup

🔧 First-time setup

After you open the app, it may ask for a few setup items:

If asked for a key, paste the value from your provider account into the field shown in the app. If the app asks to use a folder, choose a folder you know well, such as Documents or a project folder.

🧠 Main features

🤖 Agent loop

The app can run a full agent loop inside your process. That means it can plan, act, check results, and continue without needing a second tool.

🔌 Provider support

It can work with Anthropic and OpenAI-compatible services. The app tries to detect the provider based on the settings you enter.

🛠️ Built-in tools

The SDK includes tools for common tasks such as:

• Reading files
• Writing files
• Editing text
• Searching folders
• Searching content
• Fetching web pages
• Sending messages
• Managing tasks and plans
• Working with terminals and notebooks

🔐 Permission control

You can control what the app can do. For example, it can ask before it touches files or runs a tool. You can also allow only certain folders.

🌐 MCP support

The app can connect to MCP servers over stdio, HTTP, or SSE. It also supports an in-process SDK server.

📁 Typical use cases

You can use open-agent-sdk-go for:

• Building a local AI helper
• Running agent tasks in a server app
• Automating file-based workflows
• Connecting AI tools to a Windows desktop app
• Testing agent behavior in a safe setup

🧩 Basic folder access

If the app asks for folder access, use these steps:

1. Click the folder picker
2. Choose the folder you want the app to use
3. Confirm the choice
4. Keep your files in that folder while you test the app

This helps the app find the files it needs without searching your whole computer.

🧪 If the app does not start

Try these steps if nothing happens after you open it:

1. Make sure the file finished downloading
2. Check that the file is not still inside a ZIP folder
3. Try running it as an administrator
4. Confirm that Windows Defender or another security tool did not block it
5. Download the file again from the Releases page

🗂️ Suggested file layout

If you plan to use the app with your own files, a simple layout can help:

• Documents\open-agent-sdk-go\
• Documents\open-agent-sdk-go\input\
• Documents\open-agent-sdk-go\output\
• Documents\open-agent-sdk-go\logs\

Keep input files in one folder and output files in another. This makes it easier to find what the app created.

🔍 Common tasks

The app may help with tasks like:

• Reading a text file
• Making small edits to files
• Fetching a web page
• Searching for a word in a folder
• Tracking steps in a task list
• Talking to a connected agent

🔑 If you need an API key

Some setups need a key from an AI provider. If that happens:

1. Sign in to your provider account
2. Open the API key page
3. Copy the key
4. Paste it into the app when asked
5. Save the settings

Keep the key private. Do not share it in chat or email.

🧭 Tips for smooth use

• Use a simple folder path with no special characters
• Keep one project in one folder
• Save your work before changing settings
• Use the latest release from the release page
• If the app offers a test run, try that first
