# Assemble production agent harnesses with DeepAgents

Use DeepAgents to build long-running task agents with a batteries-included harness for planning, tools, and workflow structure.

## Prerequisites

DeepAgents, model provider credentials, workflow tools

## Installation

Use the upstream install or setup path that matches your environment:
- uv add deepagents

Requirements and caveats from upstream:
- <a href="https://docs.langchain.com/oss/python/deepagents/overview#deep-agents-overview">
- python
- The agent can plan, read/write files, and manage its own context. Add your own tools, swap models, customize prompts, configure sub-agents, and more. See the [documentation](https://docs.langchain.com/oss/python/deepa...

Basic usage or getting-started notes:
- **Shell access** — run commands in your sandbox of choice
- **Human-in-the-loop** — approve, edit, or reject tool calls before they run
- from deepagents import create_deep_agent
