About ii-agent
Intelligent-Internet/ii-agent
II-Agent: a new open-source framework to build and deploy intelligent agents
Supports autonomous full-stack development, presentation generation, and deep research tasks through multi-model orchestration and tool integration. The framework enables switching between LLMs (Gemini, Claude, GPT) within a single conversation thread while leveraging specialized capabilities like code interpretation and file search. Designed for complex, multi-step workflows that combine reasoning, code generation, and information synthesis across integrated research and development modules.
About agentsilex
howl-anderson/agentsilex
A transparent, minimal, and hackable agent framework. ~300 lines of readable code. Full control, no magic.
Supports intelligent agent handoffs and multi-agent workflows through a callback-based architecture, with specialized agents routable via a main orchestrator. Built on LiteLLM for universal LLM compatibility (100+ models), and includes OpenTelemetry tracing integration with Phoenix for observability, plus MCP client support for extending capabilities with external tool protocols.
