LightAgent🚀 – small footprint, big potential. 🌟(Open-source Agentic framework)

LightAgent is an ultra‑lightweight, open‑source framework that now natively supports Skills — letting you compose reusable capabilities with persistent memory, tool use, and tree‑of‑thought reasoning. It streamlines multi‑agent collaboration (build self‑learning agents in one step), connects to MCP over stdio and SSE, runs on any modern LLM (OpenAI, DeepSeek, Qwen, and more), and outputs OpenAI‑compatible streaming APIs for instant drop‑in with any chat interface. Small, modular, and skill‑ready — spin it up in five minutes.
