Examples
The shipped registry is the create-agent starter. Advanced samples stay in source.
The default examples registry is the
create-agent starter:
one Order assistant with a lookup_order tool. Ask Look up order demo-123.
npm create @nylorun/agent my-agent
cd my-agent
npm run devRuntime listens at http://127.0.0.1:8787. Studio opens on a free port starting
at 4161. Runtime stays up after you stop dev.
This release supports local text, ordinary tools, scoped hooks, MCP, sandbox,
skills, and plugins. Agents used as tools ship on the npm beta channel
(@nylorun/agents@0.5.0-beta) — see Subagents.
Advanced waits, media, deployment recipes, and broad recovery guarantees are
deferred.
Source references
The Harness repository still contains authored agents (instructions, skills, images, MCP, sandbox, and others). They are source references outside the default registry, not a tested catalog for this release. Do not expect them to run as the 0.13 Hono starter.
If you copy a pattern, take the definition—not credentials or generated data—into
agents/, export it from agents/index.ts, and start a new Studio session
after the watcher re-registers the agent.
