AG-UI: the Agent-User Interaction Protocol. Bring Agents into Frontend Applications.

---

AG-UI is an open, lightweight, event-based protocol that standardizes how AI agents connect to user-facing applications. Built for simplicity and flexibility, it enables seamless integration between AI agents, real time user context, and user interfaces.

AG-UI is an open, lightweight, event-based protocol for agent-human interaction, designed for simplicity & flexibility:

• During agent executions, agent backends emit events compatible with one of AG-UI's ~16 standard event types
• Agent backends can accept one of a few simple AG-UI compatible inputs as arguments

AG-UI includes a flexible middleware layer that ensures compatibility across diverse environments:

• Works with any event transport (SSE, WebSockets, webhooks, etc.)
• Allows for loose event format matching, enabling broad agent and app interoperability

It also ships with a reference HTTP implementation and default connector to help teams get started fast.

AG-UI was developed based on real-world requirements and practical experience building in-app agent interactions.

AG-UI is complementary to the other 2 top agentic protocols

• MCP gives agents tools
• A2A allows agents to communicate with other agents
• AG-UI brings agents into user-facing applications

• 💬 Real-time agentic chat with streaming
• 🔄 Bi-directional state synchronization
• 🧩 Generative UI and structured messages
• 🧠 Real-time context enrichment
• 🛠️ Frontend tool integration
• 🧑‍💻 Human-in-the-loop collaboration

AG-UI was born from CopilotKit's initial partnership with LangChain and CrewAI - and brings the incredibly popular agent-user-interactivity infrastructure to the wider agentic ecosystem.
