## What it is
NVIDIA Object Oriented Agents (NOOA) is a model-agnostic Python framework for building AI agents where state, tools, prompts, and typed interfaces are expressed through a single Python class. It provides an object-oriented alternative to fragmented agent abstractions, letting developers define agentic methods that the runtime hands to an LLM.

## Use cases
- build ai agents in python
- create a support agent that triages tickets with an llm
- define agent tools as typed python methods
- build llm-powered workflows with typed state
- prototype agentic applications without learning a dsl
- swap underlying llm models without rewriting agent code

## When to choose
- you want agents expressed as plain python classes with typed fields and methods
- you prefer object-oriented design over prompt/callback-based agent frameworks
- you need model-agnostic agent development
- you want strong typing on agent inputs and outputs

## When to avoid
- you need a visual or low-code agent builder
- you require a framework with a large plugin ecosystem and long track record
- you are building simple single-prompt llm calls that don't need an agent framework
