Reviewer scorecard
“First-party SDK with excellent TypeScript support. Tool use and streaming work flawlessly. The agent loop is well-designed.”
“Write server code once, deploy anywhere. The preset system handles platform-specific deployment automatically.”
“Using the official SDK reduces risk of breaking changes. The agent patterns are production-tested by Anthropic themselves.”
“UnJS is building the invisible infrastructure of the JavaScript ecosystem. Nitro's portability is genuinely valuable.”
“Anthropic's approach to safe, capable agents sets the standard. The SDK makes best practices the default path.”
“Universal server engines that abstract deployment targets are the right foundation for framework-agnostic backends.”
