eve is a filesystem-first TypeScript framework by Vercel for building durable AI agents, where an agent is defined by a conventional directory layout (instructions.md, tools/, skills/, channels/, schedules/). It includes a CLI for scaffolding, a dev server with terminal UI, sandboxing, and integrations for Slack, Discord, Telegram, and other messaging channels.

Use cases

• build an AI agent from a markdown instructions file
• create a Slack or Discord chatbot backed by an LLM
• schedule recurring agent tasks with cron
• add typed tools an LLM can call from TypeScript files
• scaffold a durable agent project with npx
• run an agent across multiple messaging channels
• give agents on-demand skills via markdown playbooks

When to choose

• you want a convention-over-configuration agent framework in TypeScript
• you prefer authoring agent behavior in markdown and filesystem conventions
• you need durable agents with channels, schedules, and sandboxes out of the box
• you're in the Vercel/AI SDK ecosystem and want AI Gateway integration

When to avoid

• you need a Python agent framework
• you want full programmatic control over agent orchestration rather than filesystem conventions
• you need a very lightweight library without CLI scaffolding
• your runtime can't run Node.js 24+ or newer
