Nerve
Simplifies the development, running, evaluation, and orchestration of LLM-based agents using YAML and a CLI.
关于
Nerve is a simple yet powerful Agent Development Kit (ADK) designed for technical users seeking programmable, auditable, and reproducible automation using large language models. Defining agents is streamlined through a clean YAML format, encompassing system prompts, tasks, tools, and variables within a single file. Built-in tools, along with extensibility via shell commands, Python functions, or remote tools, empower agents with fully typed and annotated capabilities. Nerve stands out with its native MCP support, functioning as both a client and server, enabling agent teams and deep orchestration. Evaluation mode allows benchmarking agents with YAML, Parquet, or folder-based test cases, ensuring reproducible tests and structured output logging. Workflows can be constructed by composing agents into linear pipelines for multi-step automations, while the foundation on LiteLLM offers LLM-agnostic support for models like OpenAI, Anthropic, and Ollama.
