Sagents Live Debugger is inspecting an agent and the status shows as interrupted with a hand icon and the text "Awaiting human decision"
Sagents Live Debugger is inspecting a sub-agent and shows it's status as "Interrupted" with a status badge.
The SagentsLiveDebugger was updated to raise visibility into the HITL state of your your agents and subagents. github.com/sagents-ai/s...
A sub-agent task was interrupted and is asking permission to delete a file.
The sub-agent was denied delete permission, the sub-agent completed it task and returned to the main agent.
Even sub-agents get the same treatment.
Shows agent conversation continuing after denied permission to delete a file.
The agent pauses, shows you what it wants to do (even multiple actions at once), and waits. You approve or reject each one. Then it picks up right where it left off.
Shows conversation interruption requesting user permission to delete a file.
Sagents v0.3.x is out! Lots to share!
AI agents doing things on your behalf is great... until they do the wrong thing. Sagents lets you define exactly which operations need human approval. github.com/sagents-ai/s... #MyElixirStatus #ElixirLang #LLM #AI #agents

I just published v0.2.0 of this Sagents library. The agents_demo was updated too, and is now cluster aware. When you shut down a node, it transfers a running agent to another node.
A new version is coming today or tomorrow that is fully cluster aware via Horde.
There's currently no linkage between Sagents and Claude Code. It could be done through one or more tools. If you create a Sagents middleware that adds ClaudeCode awareness and connection, I'd be like 🤩
Sagents is open source and ready to try:
Framework: github.com/sagents-ai/sagents
Live Debugger: github.com/sagents-ai/sagents_live_debugger
Demo App: github.com/sagents-ai/agents_demo
Full walkthrough: www.youtube.com/watch?v=r-14...
Debugging agents is hard. So we built a real-time LiveView debugger.
See every message, tool call, middleware action, and sub-agent event as it happens. Drop it into any Phoenix app with one line in your router.

Need parallel execution? Sagents supports SubAgents. The parent agent spawns specialized child agents that work independently and report back.
Each SubAgent gets its own tools, system prompt, and isolated context. HITL approvals propagate up to the parent.
Agents that plan their work. The TodoList middleware lets agents break down complex tasks and track progress, visible to the user in real-time through the sidebar.
No more black-box execution.
AI agents shouldn't run unchecked. Sagents has built-in Human-in-the-Loop middleware.
Configure which tools need approval. The agent pauses, shows you exactly what it wants to do, and waits for your decision: approve, edit, or reject.
Sagents agents are built from composable middleware. TodoList, FileSystem, SubAgents, Summarization, and more. Snap them together like building blocks.
Here's the demo app with a virtual filesystem: create, read, edit, and search files, all in conversation.
Introducing Sagents -- an open-source #ElixirLang framework for building #AI agents with human oversight, composable middleware, and real-time Phoenix LiveView integration.
Built on OTP. Each agent is a supervised GenServer.

To me, it’s an entirely different thing to vary consciously design and develop with an LLM, but where it does all of the grunt work and boiler plate. But the decisions, the design, the architecture, that’s all mine. I don’t call that vibe coding.
To me the term “vibe coding” means I’ve handed over all thinking about how it should work to the LLM. That’s what works great for experiments and side projects. Let’s me build something like a little tool. I wouldn’t have created otherwise.
