AgentOS vs LangGraph

AgentOS

A TypeScript agent framework with typed tools, six multi-agent strategies, checkpointed graphs, approval gates and no telemetry of its own. It is at 0.12.12 after 98 releases in 90 days, two of them breaking on 7 October 2026. No MCP client was found in the package, and code tools an agent writes run in an in-process node:vm context.

LangGraph

Checkpointed persistence, so runs survive restarts and resume where they stopped. No MCP client of its own. LangChain's langchain.mcp is in beta.

AgentOS

1. Pin an exact version of @framers/agentos. Feature commits ship as patch releases while it is 0.x, and breaking changes ship as minors
2. Leave emergentConfig.allowSandboxTools off unless forged code runs through an executor that isolates. The default executor shares the host process
3. Pass your own ICheckpointStore to compile() for runs that must survive a restart. The default store is in memory
4. Set hitl.approvals.beforeTool for tools that write, and choose a handler. No approval gate is on by default
5. Use Node 22 or newer, and set a provider key such as OPENAI_API_KEY or ANTHROPIC_API_KEY. The provider is detected from the environment

LangGraph

1. Use a persistent checkpointer in production, not the in-memory one
2. Move from langchain-mcp-adapters to langchain.mcp, and expect a LangChainBetaWarning
3. Set LANGGRAPH_CLI_NO_ANALYTICS=1 on build machines
4. Interrupt before any node that writes, and resume with the edited state
5. Keep the checkpoint and SQLite packages current. Each had a high-severity advisory in late 2025
