Are you using an open source version, hosted product or maybe you have rolled your own?

What is working, what is missing, and how are you evaluating the usefulness of memory for your agentic projects?

I have started multiple projects using AI / Agent frameworks and have always been disappointed in the end. My current project I am implementing everything from scratch and I am much happier, I know where all the state exists and I do not have to spend hours trying to find how to extract some data from the agent loop which I need.

However today I was researching what I would deem to be "good" open source code in this area to try and find some interesting abstractions and noticed that nearly all the projects[0][1] are using Vercel's AI SDK for connecting to LLMs. Right now I have my own internal interface and am implementing a few providers (ollama, openai, anthropic).

So I wanted to see what the view of HN is, am I being stupid - is the AI SKD truly a good bit of abstraction and I should leverage it to save time?
