Product overview
Capabilities, pricing and fit
BCG X AgentKit is a deprecated open-source full-stack starter kit for constrained, chat-based agent applications. It combined a FastAPI and LangChain backend with a Next.js interface, configurable action plans, authentication, queues, caching, monitoring, PostgreSQL, and Docker Compose.
Information as of August 9, 2026
What it can do
- Constrained agent routing
A meta-agent selects from preconfigured action plans whose tools can run linearly or in parallel, limiting the routes available to an agent.[1]
- Full-stack chat starter
The template includes a Next.js interface, FastAPI backend, LangChain configuration, authentication, queues, caching, monitoring, PostgreSQL with pgvector, and Docker Compose.[1]
- Streaming intermediate outputs
Action-plan steps can stream intermediate data, documents, summaries, and visualizations into the chat interface.[1]
Where it fits best
- Maintainers of existing AgentKit prototypes who need to understand or preserve the project's constrained routing and full-stack application structure.[1]
Important considerations
- BCG X deprecated AgentKit and archived the repository on March 18, 2026; it is read-only and no longer actively maintained, and the maintainers recommend newer alternatives for new projects.[1]
- The project describes itself as a starter kit and says production deployments need additional enterprise-grade security, including attention to LLM risks such as prompt injection.[1]
