Nerve is a simple and powerful Agent Development Kit (ADK) aimed at helping users build, run, evaluate, and coordinate intelligent agents based on Large Language Models (LLMs). For technical users, Nerve provides a programmable, auditable, and reproducible automation method, enabling users to easily create automated workflows.

The main features of Nerve include:

1. **Declarative Agents**: Users can define agents using a clear YAML format. This means that all necessary content, such as system prompts, tasks, tools, and variables, can be easily set up in a single file.

2. **Built-in Tools and Extensibility**: Nerve supports the use of Shell commands, Python functions, or remote tools to enhance the capabilities of agents. All tools have well-defined types and annotations, making them more convenient to use.

3. **Native MCP Support (Client and Server)**: Nerve is the first framework that allows users to define MCP servers in YAML. This makes in-depth collaboration and coordination between agent teams easier.

4. **Evaluation Mode**: Users can benchmark agents through YAML, Parquet, or folder-based test cases. This feature enables users to run reproducible tests, record structured outputs, and track regressions or progress.

5. **Workflows**: Nerve allows users to combine multiple agents into simple linear pipelines to create multi-step automation processes that can share context information.

6. **LLM Independence**: Nerve is built on LiteLLM and supports many language models such as OpenAI, Anthropic, and Ollama. Users can easily switch between different models with a single line of code, increasing the flexibility of use.

Using Nerve is very simple. Users only need to install the project via pip, then they can download and install agents from the GitHub repository or create new agents through the bootstrapper. Finally, they can run the created agents to start the automation work.

If you are interested in intelligent agent development, Nerve is undoubtedly a tool worth trying. It is not only powerful but also easy to get started with.
