Python, Apache-2.0 licensed. The project labels itself: agent, agent based framework, agent framework, chatglm, claude, deepseek, ernie and framework.

Agently runs. An Argusic agent installed it in 5 minutes and hit 4 errors and fixed every one without help on a clean machine with no GPU, and the whole session was recorded.

The agently 4.1.4.8 package installs, imports, and creates agents via its fluent API. 3,776 of 3,826 tests pass. 9 failures are pre-existing characterization snapshot mismatches (expected on different package versions), and 1 requires a Docker daemon.

What the agent ended up with on a clean machine, in its own words. How this is measured

Measured by Argusic on a fresh machine every time. Every number links to its evidence. Argusic Score 100 of 100 (the mean of this project's run scores).

What was measured

From the run that decided this verdict. Every line is a recorded value, not an estimate.

Time lost to each failure while testing Agently, drawn from the recorded run
Every bar is a failure the agent recorded, with the time it cost. Drawn from this run, not from anywhere else.

What went wrong, in the agent's own words

The agent's own words, worst first, never rewritten into advice.

  • No python binary on PATH β€” only python3 available, but code adapters and providers hardcoded python as argv[0]2 minutes
  • Missing optional dependencies: python-dotenv, beautifulsoup4, fastapi, sqlmodel, aiosqlite, fastmcp1 minute
  • 9 characterization tests fail due to baseline snapshot drift (event paths and prompt content differ across package versions)
  • test_gvisor_direct_docker_run_emits_one_fixed_runtime_argv fails β€” Docker daemon not available in container and monkeypatch does not cover inspect_availability()

What was not measured

The other half, so you can see exactly how far this evidence goes. A gap is printed as a gap and never filled in.

Peak GPU memory
this ran on a CPU machine, so there was no GPU to sample
Behaviour over a long run
each attempt uses the smallest documented settings and a fixed time budget, so this measures whether it runs, not how it holds up under load

Replay the whole session, every command from a clean machine to this point.

How it was tested

One agent, one container, no human help. It installs the project the way its own documentation says to, runs it, and fixes what breaks. Everything below is recorded as it happened: the terminal session, the log and the exact commit. The full method.

Strengths and limits

Measured facts, not opinions. How this is written.

What went well

  • Reached a running state on a clean machine, with the session recorded.
  • Installed in 5 minutes, faster than the median of the 73 comparable projects Argusic has measured.
  • Recovered from all 4 errors without a human stepping in, which says the failures are documented well enough to solve.
  • Ran without a GPU, so it does not need one to start.
  • Licensed Apache-2.0, as reported by its host.

What did not, or is not known

  • Measured once so far. A single attempt shows it can run, not that it runs reliably.

Of the 74 agent projects Argusic has installed and timed, Agently was the 29th fastest to reach a running state, and 50 of 74 reached one at all.

What it is a reasonable choice for

  • Trying it on a laptop or a small server: it reached a running state without a GPU.
  • A quick evaluation: it was running 5 minutes after the clone.

Also tested, in the same area

Every one of these was installed and run by Argusic on a clean machine. Nothing appears here that was not tested.

Questions

Does Agently run?
Yes. Agently runs. Argusic installed and launched it on a clean machine in 5 minutes, hitting 4 errors on the way, and recorded the session.
How did Argusic test Agently?
On a fresh, disposable machine, with every command recorded and the repository pinned at commit d58239501e7d. One attempt is recorded, and the full method is on the methodology page.
What did it cost to test Agently?
The run that produced this verdict cost $0.32: real compute and model cost, not a list price per million tokens. It is recorded on that run's page.
How long does Agently take to install?
5 minutes in the run that decided this verdict, from a clean machine to a running state. That is one measured attempt, not an average.
Does Agently need a GPU?
Not to start. Argusic reached a running state on a machine with no GPU.
What goes wrong when installing Agently?
4 things broke in the recorded run, and 4 were fixed without human help. Each one, and the time it cost, is listed on this page.
How does Agently compare with the alternatives?
Of the 74 agent projects Argusic has installed and timed, Agently was the 29th fastest to reach a running state, and 50 of 74 reached one at all.
Where is the evidence for Agently?
The recorded run is on this page, each linking to its full log and terminal recording, stored with a sha256 fingerprint so it cannot be quietly altered.
