Better Agents is a CLI tool and a set of standards for scaffolding production-ready AI agent projects. It configures coding assistants like Claude Code or Cursor to be experts in a chosen agent framework, and generates a standardized project structure with scenario tests, versioned prompts, evaluation notebooks, and observability setup.

Use cases

• scaffold a new AI agent project with best practices
• make my coding assistant an expert in LangGraph or Mastra
• add end-to-end scenario tests for agent behavior
• version and collaborate on LLM prompts
• set up evaluation notebooks for agent pipelines
• standardize agent project structure across a team
• bootstrap an agent project ready for production with observability

When to choose

• starting a new agent project from scratch and wanting best practices baked in
• you use a supported framework like Agno, Mastra, or LangGraph
• your team needs standardized structure, prompt versioning, and agent testing
• you want your coding assistant guided by AGENTS.md and MCP configs

When to avoid

• you have an existing agent codebase that doesn't fit the generated structure
• you need a runtime agent framework rather than a scaffolding tool
• you don't use AI coding assistants or the supported frameworks
• you need a framework-agnostic library to embed in your own code
