Introduction
Athyr is a lightweight runtime for deploying AI agents as distributed microservices. It provides the infrastructure layer that handles agent orchestration, communication, and state management so you can focus on building agent logic.
Why Athyr?
Building multi-agent systems traditionally requires solving complex infrastructure problems: service discovery, message routing, state persistence, and LLM provider management. Athyr handles all of this in a single binary.
Key Features
Single Binary Deployment - No external dependencies. Deploy anywhere with zero configuration.
Language Agnostic - Write agents in Go, Python, TypeScript, or any language with gRPC support.
Built-in LLM Gateway - Multi-provider routing with automatic failover and circuit breakers.
Agent Registry - Automatic service discovery. Agents find each other seamlessly.
