Nexus.Auth.OAuth2 0.3.0

Nexus

Production-Grade Multi-Agent Runtime For .NET

Build agents, workflows, tools, memory, approvals, protocol bridges, and runtime guardrails in one coherent platform.

Nexus is for teams that want multi-agent systems to behave like engineered software: testable, observable, composable, benchmarked, and ready to operate under real constraints.

Why Teams Pick Nexus

• 🚀 Orchestrate single agents, DAG workflows, parallel branches, fan-out/fan-in graphs, and batched sub-agents
• 🛡️ Enforce approvals, budgets, guardrails, retries, and checkpointing in the runtime instead of hiding control flow inside prompts
• 🧠 Combine tools, memory, messaging, and workflow DSLs without inventing custom orchestration glue
• 🔌 Expose the system through MCP, A2A, AG-UI, and ASP.NET Core hosting endpoints
• 📊 Track token usage, estimated cost, benchmark hot paths, and validate behavior with deterministic tests
• 🧪 Ship with test doubles, mocks, workflow tests, orchestration tests, CLI tests, and live integration coverage
• 🧱 Keep architecture modular across core runtime, protocols, hosting, testing, and standard tools
• ⚙️ Support human-in-the-loop execution, delegated specialist agents, and explicit workflow branching in the same stack
• 📚 Offer recipes, guides, benchmarks, and architecture docs for both humans and LLM-assisted development
