What is Dagger?
Dagger is an open-source runtime for composable workflows. It's perfect for systems with many moving parts and a strong need for repeatability, modularity, observability and cross-platform support. This makes it a great choice for AI agents and CI/CD workflows.
Key Features
-
Containerized Workflow Execution: Transform code into containerized, composable operations. Build reproducible workflows in any language with custom environments, parallel processing, and seamless chaining.
-
Universal Type System: Mix and match components from any language with type-safe connections. Use the best tools from each ecosystem without translation headaches.
-
Automatic Artifact Caching: Operations produce cacheable, immutable artifacts — even for LLMs and API calls. Your workflows run faster and cost less.
-
Built-in Observability: Full visibility into operations with tracing, logs, and metrics. Debug complex workflows and know exactly what's happening.
-
Open Platform: Works with any compute platform and tech stack — today and tomorrow. Ship faster, experiment freely, and don’t get locked into someone else's choices.
-
LLM Augmentation: Native integration of any LLM that automatically discovers and uses available functions in your workflow. Ship mind-blowing agents in just a few dozen lines of code.
-
Interactive Terminal: Directly interact with your workflow or agents in real-time through your terminal. Prototype, test, debug, and ship even faster.
