About

Ax is Google's declarative runtime for orchestrating agent workloads, built like Kubernetes for agents: you declare what you want with apply, then inspect it with get, describe, and watch. Agents run in sandboxed workspaces with network fencing, so untrusted code stays contained. It is Apache 2.0 open source and self-hosted, which makes it a solid foundation if you are running agents beyond one-off experiments.

Details

Open source. You run it yourself.

Auth: Open source (Apache 2.0)

Rate limit: Self-hosted open source: no API limits; bounded by your own infrastructure.
