# Welcome to Runflow

> Build intelligent AI agents and multi-agent systems with TypeScript

## What is Runflow?

Runflow is a complete platform for building, deploying, and managing AI agents. It combines a powerful **TypeScript SDK** with a **command-line interface (CLI)** and a **management portal**, making it easy to create production-ready AI applications.

## Your Journey with Runflow

### 1. Get Started with CLI (2 minutes)

The fastest way to start is with the CLI:

```bash theme={null}
# Install
npm i -g @runflow-ai/cli

# Login
rf login

# List and clone an agent
rf agents list

# Test locally
cd agent-name/
rf test
```

### 2. Build with Code

Once you understand the basics, dive into the SDK:

```typescript theme={null}
import { Agent, openai } from "@runflow-ai/sdk";

// Create a basic agent
const agent = new Agent({
  name: "Support Agent",
  instructions: "You are a helpful customer support assistant.",
  model: openai("gpt-4o"),
  memory: { maxTurns: 10 },
});

// Process a message
const result = await agent.process({
  message: "I need help with my order",
  sessionId: "session_456",
});
```

### 3. Learn Core Concepts

Understand the powerful features:

* **Agents** - Intelligent AI assistants with LLM, tools, and memory
* **Memory** - Persistent conversation history across sessions
* **Tools** - Custom functions your agents can call
* **Connectors** - Integrate with HubSpot, Twilio, Slack, and more
* **Workflows** - Orchestrate complex multi-step processes
* **RAG** - Semantic search in your knowledge base
* **Observability** - Full tracing with cost tracking
