// AGENTLAYER · DEVELOPER ENABLEMENT
How engineering teams ship the agentic era.
AgentDev is AgentLayer's developer surface — open-source reference implementations of orchestration, identity, compliance, and observability patterns we use internally; training and certification for engineering teams adopting agent-native systems; and the public home of agent-kevin and @agentlayer/studio, our production agentic systems.
// A SUB-PLATFORM OF AGENTLAYER · dev.agentlayer.one
// THE ENGINEERING SHIFT
“Engineering teams don't need another agent framework demo. They need the patterns that survive production — orchestration, identity, audit, observability — implemented and proven.”
Most agentic-AI material in 2026 is demo code. AgentDev is the inverse: production patterns first, demo code last. The reference implementations come from agent-kevin (open source) and @agentlayer/studio — the operator surface live at studio.agentlayer.one. Both run with hooks, heartbeat tasks, knowledge compilation, multi-user isolation, and audit trails.
The non-negotiables for engineering teams adopting agentic systems are the same as the non-negotiables for AgentLayer's industry verticals: orchestration, identity, compliance, observability, governance. AgentDev publishes the patterns; verticals consume them.
Position: “How engineering teams adopt the agentic era.” Enablement, not bespoke services. Open source first, certification second, advisory third.
// PATTERNS, NOT DEMOS
// REFERENCE IMPLEMENTATIONS
Production reference. Live operator surface.
Personal AI assistant. Multi-user session isolation, hooked session capture, knowledge compilation pipeline, autonomous heartbeat scheduler, Telegram + CLI surfaces, plugin dispatch (Playwright, GSC, SerpAPI).
The operator surface of the platform. Activity feed, agents, kanban + list task views, timeline, audit trail, approvals, notifications, light/dark theming, real-time streaming. Live interactive prototype today.
@agentlayer/orchestration
Agent loop, tool dispatch, multi-step planning patterns.
orchestration.dev.agentlayer.one
@agentlayer/identity
Principal-vs-agent action delegation, KYA patterns.
identity.dev.agentlayer.one
@agentlayer/audit
Append-only action logs, attribution, replay.
audit.dev.agentlayer.one
@agentlayer/observability
Heartbeat health, task telemetry, session lineage.
observability.dev.agentlayer.one
// THE NON-NEGOTIABLES
What production agentic systems actually require.
Patterns that compose with the language and tooling you already use. No framework lock-in.
Every agent action attributable, replayable, reviewable. Production agents leave a paper trail or they shouldn't ship.
Heartbeat health, task lineage, session state — all surfaced. You cannot operate what you cannot see.
Designed-in approval points, not bolted-on guardrails. Patterns for where the human enters and exits the loop.

// PROOF BEFORE PROMISES
// THE CORE BENEATH AGENTDEV
AgentDev is one vertical of AgentLayer — the platform company behind agent-native systems for industries that legacy software was never built for. AgentDev is the developer surface: the same orchestration, identity, compliance, and observability core that powers AgentPay, AgentGov, AgentHealth, AgentLegal, and AgentStay — open-sourced, documented, certifiable.
// MALAYSIA-BUILT · IN-PRODUCTION
AgentDev is built in Malaysia by AgentLayer Sdn Bhd. The reference implementations (agent-kevin, @agentlayer/studio) run in production for the AgentLayer family and as a live operator-surface prototype. Patterns extracted from real production use, not whiteboard speculation.
// HOW WE WORK WITH ENGINEERING TEAMS
AgentDev is open-source-first. Three ways to engage.
// PRODUCT, NOT BODY-SHOP — every engagement produces reusable artefacts.
