Java SDK Overview

The AG-UI Java SDK provides a robust and idiomatic way to connect Java applications to AG-UI agents. It enables real-time streaming communication through Server-Sent Events (SSE), allowing you to build intelligent agent-powered applications with Java.

Installation

Add the packages you need as Maven dependencies (or Gradle):

<dependency>
  <groupId>com.ag-ui</groupId>
  <artifactId>core</artifactId>
  <version>0.0.1</version>
</dependency>

<dependency>
  <groupId>com.ag-ui</groupId>
  <artifactId>client</artifactId>
  <version>0.0.1</version>
</dependency>

<dependency>
  <groupId>com.ag-ui</groupId>
  <artifactId>http</artifactId>
  <version>0.0.1</version>
</dependency>

Quick Start

Create an HttpAgent, subscribe to events, and run the agent:

HttpAgent agent = HttpAgent.builder()
    .agentId("my-agent")
    .threadId("thread-123")
    .httpClient(myHttpClient) // e.g., new com.agui.okhttp.HttpClient("https://api.example.com/agent")
    .state(new State())
    .build();

agent.subscribe(new AgentSubscriber() {
  @Override
  public void onTextMessageContentEvent(TextMessageContentEvent event) {
    System.out.print(event.getDelta());
  }
});

RunAgentParameters params = new RunAgentParameters();
params.setContext(List.of());
params.setTools(List.of());

agent.runAgent(params, null).join();

Package Structure

The Java SDK is organized into several focused packages, each handling a specific aspect of the AG-UI protocol:

Core Package (com.agui.core)

Foundational types and events: messages, state, tools, context, event stream, and all event classes.

Client Package (com.agui.client)

Agent base class, message factory, and subscriber interfaces for building and integrating agents.

HTTP Package (com.agui.http)

Ready-to-use HttpAgent that streams events from a remote server using your chosen HTTP client.
