Astromesh Architecture

This document provides the architecture diagrams for Astromesh, designed in a style inspired by Kubernetes‑like control plane / data plane systems.

These diagrams are intended to be embedded directly in the project README or documentation.


High-Level Architecture

Astromesh is designed as an Agent Runtime Platform with layered architecture.

Why This Architecture

This architecture separates agent control, reasoning orchestration, and execution infrastructure into distinct layers.

Benefits include:

  • Declarative agent definitions
  • Swappable LLM providers
  • Pluggable memory backends
  • Multi-agent orchestration
  • Built-in observability
  • Channel integrations
  • Safe tool execution

This design allows Astromesh to scale from single-agent applications to distributed agentic systems.
