Agno combines agents, teams, workflows, knowledge, memory, evaluation, AgentOS, and a control plane while keeping application data in buyer infrastructure, but production safety remains an engineering responsibility.
Direct verdict
Agno earns a shortlist for Python teams prioritizing an owned runtime and broad production scaffold. Prove multiple agents beat a simpler workflow, then harden storage, tools, identities, provider paths, and recovery.
What to verify
Implement the same task as one agent, a team, and a workflow with synthetic data. Inject tool failures, malicious retrieval, timeouts, disconnects, duplicate requests, approval, and storage loss. Compare accuracy, latency, tokens, recovery, isolation, provider paths, effort, and cost.
