No sign-up needed to try using the dev server:
curl -fsSL https://sectr.dev/install.sh | sh # Install CLI\n sectr init my-agent && cd my-agent # Starter code\n sectr dev # Dev server, with UI to test chatting\n- Streaming of every token, tool call and event, and persistence so they can be loaded fresh later.
- Scaling up, and down to zero when the agent needs to wait, and resumption right to the suspended agent's state.
- Human approved tools automatically use Sectr's suspension and resumption capabilities, no code needed from you.
- AG-UI endpoint for any deployed agent so you can trivially hook up your frontend
- Local dev server experience, so you can rapidly debug and iterate on your agent's behavior
At the core, you can deploy any container image to Sectr as long as it implements a certain shaped HTTP endpoint. In practice, currently Sectr provides adapters to let you deploy your existing OpenAI Agents SDK, LangGraph, or Pydantic AI agents, with only 2 new lines of code:
app = AgentApp(name="support")\n app.add_route("/chat", openai_agents(agent))\nSectr is free during the beta (and can be tried locally without sign-up); I mainly want feedback, especially on dev & deployment experiences, any bugs, and what features would excite you.

Deploying agents requires non-trivial systems design work. Consider a support agent: how do you stream messages to your frontend, how/where do you persist messages for frontend fetching later (or for auditing), and when the agent wants to issue a refund, do you spin-down the compute infra while it's waiting on human approval? Sectr aims to be the serverless abstraction and platform to provide these systems for you.

Feedback welcome.
You start the game running a small research lab, building AI. As you grow, a rival appears and the race kicks in. If you build too slow and they steal your resources. But if you build too fast without alignment, all humans lose (including you). In the late game players may want to take their foot off the pedal and slow down progress, but the world has begun to depend on the wonders you create. The challenge is to thread the needle, create great tech for humanity without ending it all.
Game mechanics draw heavily on the essay Keep The Future Human\nby Anthony Aguirre, I'm happy to discuss below.
Oh, and don't worry if the UI starts acting weird. As your AI gets more powerful, the game might start misbehaving...
