This example highlights the power of Agent Runtimes: a single agent can support multiple output formats seamlessly. From plain text and Markdown to structured JSON and UI-ready payloads, responses can adapt dynamically. ➡️ Build once, deploy everywhere.

Should your AI agent need approval before running a skill—even for something as simple as telling a joke? What do you think? Personally, I believe it should be configurable 🙂

LLM apps in prod need more than accuracy—they need cost visibility. Tokens drive spend, but most systems lack insight. Datalayer’s open-source agent-runtimes adds runtime-level tracking, OTEL pluggability & React charts—works with any LLM. PR:

I've added a tree view to pick files in Toad. 🐸 Fuzzy searching is great when you know what you're looking for. But a tree view is more natural when you want to look through your files. Toad is a unified interface for agentic coding, and all things AI, in your terminal.
