INVOKE THIS SKILL when building, testing, or deploying Managed Deep Agents in LangSmith. Walks a user through their first agent end to end — interviewing them about what they want to build, mapping it onto what MDA can actually do, then scaffolding and deploying it. Covers the file-based project layout; define_deep_agent / defineDeepAgent; instructions, skills, memory, identity, tools, MCP servers, connections, middleware, sandboxes, schedules, channels, and evals; the mda CLI; GitHub deployments; and Context Hub.

# Managed Deep Agents

## Overview

Managed Deep Agents (MDA) is a hosted runtime for code-first Deep Agents in LangSmith. You author an agent in Python or TypeScript, test it locally with `mda dev`, and deploy it with `mda deploy` or from a connected GitHub repository in LangSmith. It pairs the open-source Deep Agents harness (see [[deep-agents-core]]) with managed infrastructure: durable runs, sandboxes, Context Hub-backed instructions and skills, memory, traces, and hosted LangGraph deployment.

The core idea is that **an agent is a directory**. A file's location determines its role, and the CLI compiles that directory into a managed LangGraph app.

MDA is in **public beta** and runs on **US LangSmith Cloud only**.

## When to use

Use this skill when the user wants to build a Deep Agent in code and run it on LangSmith without operating their own server, or to add tools, MCP servers, connections, middleware, memory, identity, schedules, channels, skills, sandboxes, or evals to one.
