Flue is an open-source TypeScript framework for building autonomous AI agents using a React-like hooks API ('use agent' directive, useModel, useTool, useSandbox). It provides durable sessions, sandboxed execution environments, tools, skills, subagents, and deploys to Node.js, Cloudflare Workers, or other runtimes.
Use cases
- build autonomous coding agents in typescript
- create ai agents that run tools in a sandbox
- deploy durable ai agents to cloudflare workers
- build multi-agent systems with subagent delegation
- connect ai agents to slack or discord
- run llm agents with durable session recovery
- give agents filesystem and shell access safely
When to choose
- you want a code-first, hooks-based framework for autonomous agents in TypeScript
- you need durable, resumable agent sessions that survive failures and restarts
- you want sandboxed execution (local, container, or cloud providers like E2B/Modal) for agent actions
- you plan to deploy agents to Node.js, Cloudflare Workers, or CI environments
- you want built-in support for tools, skills, subagents, and MCP servers
When to avoid
- you only need simple chatbot-style LLM API calls without autonomy or tool use
- your stack is Python-based (e.g., LangChain, CrewAI ecosystems)
- you need a no-code or low-code agent builder
- you require a mature, long-proven framework — Flue is young and evolving rapidly
