“As you can see from the Flue 2 API, we’re taking it more from React [...] than we are from Astro or Next.js — where it’s less about routing and these website concepts and more about, at its base level, how do you compose an agent on many different things?” Flue’s central proposition: agents need a harness A key concept in Flue is that an agent must have a harness — meaning that it’s in an environment where it has access to the context and capabilities needed to accomplish various tasks. He’s just released version 2 of Flue , its first stable release, which has as its foundation React-style “Agent Hooks.” In Flue, an agent is represented by a JavaScript function. As he put it, “the framework [Flue] and the harness are very intertwined.” He personally finds the meta-harness discussion fascinating, and has played with Exo, but says it’s “a different interest scenario that isn’t really related to hosted agents.” The Cloudflare connection Throughout the interview, Schott referenced being able to take advantage of his employer Cloudflare’s tooling and infrastructure . Schott is the creator of the web framework Astro, which led to his company being acquired by Cloudflare in January.
