Pick agent-service-toolkit if you are
Python teams serving LangGraph agents over an API
- AG-UI endpoint for CopilotKit-style frontends alongside the REST API
- docker compose watch runs Postgres, API and Streamlit with live reload
Pick agent-landing-zone if you are
Azure teams deploying network-isolated enterprise agent apps with IaC
- Infrastructure-only mode via `azd provision`, with apps deployed later using `azd deploy`
- Component versions pinned in manifest.json for reproducible releases

agent-service-toolkit
Python service where LangGraph v1 agents (interrupt, Command, Store) are served by FastAPI with streaming and non-streaming endpoints, AG-UI support, per-agent URL paths, /threads history and a Postgres checkpointer via docker compose. Includes an AgentClient, a Streamlit chat UI with voice, LangSmith feedback, Groq moderation, a ChromaDB RAG agent, unit, integration and smoke tests. Needs at least one LLM API key.
Who it is for: Python teams serving LangGraph agents over an API
Strengths
- AG-UI endpoint for CopilotKit-style frontends alongside the REST API
- docker compose watch runs Postgres, API and Streamlit with live reload
- Unit and integration tests plus smoke tests for Postgres, Mongo, AG-UI and Langfuse
- Hosted demo on Streamlit Cloud
Weaknesses
- Solo maintainer; issues triaged roughly biweekly
- Streamlit client is a demo UI, not a product frontend
- Content moderation needs a Groq API key
- Tests only run outside Docker
- Python, LangChain providers: OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, Ollama, VertexAI, vLLM/SGLang, AG-UI protocol
- Needs LLM API key (OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, Groq, Ollama or others), PostgreSQL (compose), LangSmith (optional), ChromaDB (RAG agent)
- GitHub template
- Docker
- env example file
agent-landing-zone
Agent Landing Zone is an azd and Bicep template that provisions a Zero-Trust Azure environment for agent applications on Microsoft Foundry. `azd up` deploys the infrastructure plus UI, orchestrator and ingestion apps, each from its own Azure repository. `azd provision` deploys the infrastructure alone. It was previously named GPT-RAG.
Who it is for: Azure teams deploying network-isolated enterprise agent apps with IaC
Strengths
- Infrastructure-only mode via `azd provision`, with apps deployed later using `azd deploy`
- Component versions pinned in manifest.json for reproducible releases
- Custom apps can replace the defaults through app-definition.json
- MIT license; docs cover network-isolated deployment
Weaknesses
- Tied to Azure and Microsoft Foundry; no other cloud is mentioned
- Default UI, orchestrator and ingestion code live in three separate repositories
- README gives no cost, quota or resource sizing figures
- Prerequisites and configuration are only in external docs, not the README
- Python
- Needs Azure, Microsoft Foundry, Azure OpenAI, Azure AI Search, Azure Developer CLI
- GitHub template
