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
full-stack-ai-agent-template
CLI (pip install fastapi-fullstack) scaffolding a FastAPI backend and Next.js frontend via a wizard or presets, with Pydantic AI, Pydantic Deep Agents, LangChain, LangGraph or DeepAgents, RAG on Milvus, Qdrant, pgvector or Chroma, WebSocket chat, JWT, OAuth, admin, teams, Stripe billing, Celery, Docker and K8s. make bootstrap starts Postgres, migrations and a seeded admin; projects can pull template upgrades later.
Who it is for: Python teams scaffolding a full-stack agent product
Strengths
- Wizard and presets pick framework, vector store, auth and billing per project
- Template upgrades merge into generated projects on a branch
- Chat UI renders tool calls, plans, subagents, charts and Python execution
- 100% coverage badge and CI on the generator
Weaknesses
- Generator, not a repo to fork; output size depends on options chosen
- Seeds admin@example.com with a fixed password; rotate before exposing
- Optional services (Milvus, Redis, Celery) raise the local footprint
- Windows needs GNU Make or WSL2
- Python, Pydantic AI, Pydantic Deep Agents, LangChain, LangGraph
- Needs PostgreSQL, Redis (optional), Milvus, Qdrant, pgvector or ChromaDB (RAG), Stripe (billing), LLM provider API key
