The framework treats an agent as a directory of files with built-in production features like durable execution, sandboxed compute, and human-in-the-loop approvals. Vercel uses eve internally and offers it as a standard Vercel project for easy deployment.", "body_md": "[eve](https://vercel.com/eve) is now available in public preview.\n\neve is an open-source framework for building, running, and scaling agents. An agent is just a directory of files, and production comes built in:\n\nDurable execution\n\nSandboxed compute\n\nHuman-in-the-loop approvals\n\nSubagents\n\nEvals\n\nThe smallest agent that runs is just two files, a model and a set of instructions.\n\nAdd a tool, skill, channel, or schedule by adding a file. eve picks them up at build time and wires them in for you, so there's no boilerplate to register them.\n\nYou can scaffold and start a new agent with a single command. It installs the dependencies, scaffolds the project, and starts a dev server, so you have an agent running locally in under a minute.\n\nOr you can let your coding agent set it up for you. Give it this prompt:\n\nAnd because an eve agent is an ordinary Vercel project, `vercel deploy`\n\nships it to production unchanged, exactly as it ran on your machine.\n\neve is the framework that Vercel builds and runs its own agents on.
