Autogen Studio Research is a GitHub-hosted research prototype for building, visualizing, and iterating on multi-agent AI applications. It offers a web-based UI that lets you drag and drop agent components, define communication channels, and configure execution pipelines. Under the hood, it uses a Python SDK to connect to various LLM backends (OpenAI, Azure, local models) and provides real-time logging, metrics, and debugging tools. The platform is designed for rapid prototyping of collaborative agent systems, decision-making workflows, and automated task orchestration.

The Java Action Linearprogram module provides a specialized action for the LightJason framework that allows agents to model and solve linear optimization tasks. Users can configure objective coefficients, add equality and inequality constraints, select solution methods, and run the solver within an agent’s reasoning cycle. Once executed, the action returns the optimal variable values and objective score which agents can use for subsequent planning or execution. This plug-and-play component abstracts solver complexity while maintaining full control over problem definitions through Java interfaces.
