Smolagents

Free Hugging Face AI agent framework — code-writing agents in under 1000 lines.
Smolagents is Hugging Face's free, open-source agent framework built around one radical idea: agents that write Python code instead of clunky JSON. In under 1,000 lines of pure Python you get a powerhouse multi-step AI agent that can browse the web, run tools, call any LLM (OpenAI, Anthropic, Llama, Qwen, DeepSeek, local models via Ollama/Transformers), and chain reasoning across complex tasks. Free forever, MIT licensed, model-agnostic, sandbox-safe execution — the smallest, fastest way to ship a real autonomous agent today.
