Part 1 of Build your own claw and agent harness with Microsoft Agent Framework. In the overview we said a "claw" is really just an agent harness: a loop around a model, wired up with tools, planning, memory, and more. In this first post we stand up that loop and give our personal...

What does it take to build your own "claw" - a capable, CLI-style agent that can plan, use tools, remember things, and safely act on your behalf? Coding agents and assistants like these can feel like magic, but underneath they are an agent harness: a loop around a language model wired up...

You open a fresh chat, type "What framework should I use for a web app?", and the model says "React." You screenshot it, share it, and write "Claude prefers React." It gets engagement. People nod along. A few reply with their own results. And now we have a consensus: Claude prefers React....

Starting in Word and expanding to nearly every other word processor, and even things that aren't word processors.

Deep Agents is an agent harness built on LangGraph, for agents that need to work through a task over many steps instead of a single LLM call. The agent runs tools, looks at the results, and uses that to pick the next one, keeping a todo list as it goes. On top of that loop the harness...

You built a skill for your technology. API references, authentication flows, SDK patterns, error handling, version info, all packed into one skill. The agent calls it, gets all that context, and generates code. The kicker? You've just wasted a lot of tokens. It already knows Models have...

It doesn't care about impersonation, says so on the tin.
