Hands on Examples

Use these examples after Quick Start to explore real scenarios with runnable code and CLI commands.

When to use this page: You are ready for richer workflows and want copy-and-run snippets instead of building from scratch.

Audience: Engineers prototyping orchestration, PMs preparing demos, and data developers running evaluations without coding.

TUI Development: Many examples below demonstrate Textual-based TUI patterns. For comprehensive TUI guidance, refer to the TUI foundation spec in the repository.

Note: Validated example projects are now centralized in the GL SDK Cookbook. This ensures all blueprints remain self-contained, runnable, and maintained with the latest SDK best practices.

Each row links to a runnable project. Follow the README for quick start instructions, then inspect code to understand the pattern.

Validated Example Projects

These projects demonstrate foundational patterns and are maintained in the GL SDK Cookbook. Each project is self-contained and ready to run.

Pattern	Description	Project Link
Basic Agent (Hello World)	A minimal starter demonstrating how to create and run an agent using config-based instantiation.	hello-world
Modular Tool Integration	Learn how to organize complex tools with separate helper files and modular structure.	modular-tool-integration
Multi-Agent Coordinator	Coordinator with specialized sub-agents (e.g., formal and casual greeting team).	multi-agent
Multi-Agent Patterns	Runnable blueprints for Sequential, Parallel, Router, Hierarchical, and Aggregator flows.	multi-agent-patterns
Runtime Configuration	How to pass per-request overrides for agents, tools, and MCPs at runtime (e.g., database URLs or planning).	runtime-config
Agent Export & Import	Demonstrates how to serialize and deserialize agent configurations for portability.	export-import
Local Execution	Run agents locally without deployment (see Local vs Remote for feature mapping).	hello-world-local
