## The Hook

Dexto positions itself as the operating system for agents — orchestration, state, tools, and recovery so an LLM becomes a reliable actor, not a one-shot chat.

## What's Good

CLI + SDKs agent harness from truffle-ai with a bundled coding agent path. Framing is clear: LLM as CPU, context as RAM, Dexto as OS. Useful when you want a batteries harness rather than wiring Mastra/VoltAgent primitives from scratch. Active GitHub surface for builders prototyping agentic apps.

## The Catch

Elastic License 2.0 — source-available; SaaS/managed restrictions apply, not Apache/MIT freedom. Vs OneCLI / AgentBox / Mastra / VoltAgent: Dexto is the Elastic harness+coding-agent bundle, not the team credential gateway, sandbox host, or typed TS framework. Beta badge — treat APIs as moving.

## Verdict

Source-available agent harness with a coding agent. Elastic-2.0 OS layer; not MIT and not a secrets gateway.
