It’s designed for technical users who want programmable, auditable, and reproducible automation using large language models.\n\n## Key Features\n\n**📝 Declarative Agents**\n\nDefine agents using a clean YAML format: system prompt, task, tools, and variables — all in one file.\n\n**🔧 Built-in Tools \u0026 Extensibility**\n\nUse shell commands, Python functions, or remote tools to power your agents. Tools are fully typed and annotated.\n\n**🌐 Native MCP Support (Client \u0026 Server)**  \n\nNerve is the first framework to let you define **MCP servers in YAML** — and act as both **client and server**, enabling agent teams and [deep orchestration](https://github.com/evilsocket/nerve/blob/main/docs/mcp.md).\n\n**📊 Evaluation Mode**  \n\n[Benchmark your agents](https://github.com/evilsocket/nerve/blob/main/docs/evaluation.md) with YAML, Parquet, or folder-based test cases. Run reproducible tests, log structured outputs, and track regression or progress. \n\n**🔁 Workflows**  \n\nCompose agents into simple, linear pipelines to create multi-step automations with shared context.\n\n**🧪 LLM-Agnostic**  \n\nBuilt on [LiteLLM](https://docs.litellm.ai/), Nerve supports OpenAI, Anthropic, Ollama, [and dozens more](https://docs.litellm.ai/docs/providers) — switch models in one line.\n\n## Quick Start\n\n```bash\n# 🖥️ install the project with:\npip install nerve-adk\n\n# ⬇️ download and install an agent from a github repo with:\nnerve install evilsocket/changelog\n\n# 💡 or create an agent with a guided procedure:\nnerve create new-agent\n\n# 🚀 go!\nnerve run new-agent\n```\n\nRead the [documentation](https://github.com/evilsocket/nerve/blob/main/docs/index.md) and the [examples](https://github.com/evilsocket/nerve/tree/main/examples) for more.\n\n## Contributing\n\nWe welcome contributions!
