Agent OS vs the ecosystem
Durable agents in your TypeScript backend — DNA packaging, crash-safe HITL, Skillgate, and local apply. Not Nest + LangGraph + workers.
Stay on Nest if AI is thin. Choose HazelJS Agent OS when agents need DNA, crash-safe HITL, Skillgate, and local apply — clone Meridian to see the full path.
vs NestJS
HazelJS vs NestJS
NestJS structures backends well. HazelJS Agent OS keeps familiar modules/DI and adds DNA packaging, crash-safe HITL, Skillgate, and local apply — clone Meridian to see it.

NestJS + LangChain vs HazelJS
Nest + LangChain works but creates two paradigms. HazelJS Agent OS unifies durable agents, DNA, Skillgate, and local apply in the same DI app as your APIs.

HazelJS vs LangChain
LangChain composes LLM pipelines. HazelJS Agent OS runs those agents inside a production TypeScript backend — DNA, crash-safe HITL, Skillgate, local apply, same DI as your APIs.

HazelJS vs LangGraph
LangGraph is a strong agent graph runtime. HazelJS Agent OS covers durable AgentRun HITL, DNA packaging, Skillgate, local apply, and your API layer without a separate web framework.
