Meet Ayjnt

Ayjnt is an agent harness framework: the structure around a model that turns intelligence into a system people can direct, trust, and use.

What is an agent harness?

A model is not an agent by itself. An agent needs a loop, state, tools, context, permissions, and a way to communicate with people. The harness is the code that supplies those things and decides how they fit together.

Ayjnt gives that harness a simple file system. An agent is a folder. Its browser interface, model tools, documentation, and middleware live beside it. A root cli.ts gives the same system a terminal interface.

MODEL

Reasoning

The intelligence you choose: hosted, local, specialized, or mixed.

HARNESS

Everything around it

Tools, memory, control flow, safety, interfaces, and observability.

A small file system

agents/
  research/
    agent.ts — state and behavior
    app.tsx — browser interface
    tools.ts — isolated tools
    tools.host.ts — host tools
cli.ts — terminal interface

Folder paths become routes and agent types. Ayjnt generates the entrypoint, runtime configuration, durable-object migrations, and typed client hooks.

agents/research/agent.ts
// agents/research/agent.ts
import { Agent } from "ayjnt";

type State = { findings: string[] };

export default class ResearchAgent
  extends Agent<State> {
  initialState = { findings: [] };

  async addFinding(finding: string) {
    this.setState({
      findings: [...this.state.findings, finding],
    });
  }
}

Ayjnt's Agent is a transparent, thin subclass of Cloudflare's Agents SDK class. You can instead import Agent directly from agents; Ayjnt supports both choices throughout discovery, routing, generated bindings, browser UIs, tools, and workflows.

Local first, cloud ready

Ayjnt runs the agent runtime locally under workerd and the host runtime under Bun. Agent code that does not depend on host-only tools can also be deployed to Cloudflare. Deployment is an option, not a prerequisite for building or using an agent.

The useful mental model

Workerd is the protected workspace where the agent lives. Bun is the workshop where host actions happen. The bridge is the checked doorway between them.
