deepagents-typescript-quickstart

deepagents-typescript-quickstart is a skill for Claude Code from langchain-ai/langchain-skills. It costs 50 tokens per session (534 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A short setup guide for creating a small Deep Agent in TypeScript on your own computer, using a web search service provided by the model provider.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to build or try a basic Deep Agent locally in TypeScript.
Why use it?
It removes the guesswork from starting a local Deep Agent and avoids requiring Tavily for web search.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

deepagents-typescript-quickstart scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 1mo ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What it actually says

Deep Agents TypeScript quickstart

Follow the live docs — do not invent an alternate API from memory:

https://docs.langchain.com/oss/javascript/deepagents/quickstart

Fetch that page (Docs MCP or HTTP) and implement the research-agent shape it shows (createDeepAgent, research system prompt, invoke with a research question like “What is LangGraph?”). Requires Node 22+.

Local setup constraints

Apply these on top of the quickstart (they keep setup minimal and model-agnostic):

  1. Ask which provider/model to use. Showcase that Deep Agents are model-agnostic. Suggested prompt:

    Which model should this agent use? Pass a provider:model string — e.g. openai:gpt-5.5, anthropic:claude-sonnet-5, google-genai:gemini-3.5-flash. Default if you're unsure: anthropic:claude-sonnet-5.
    We'll use that provider's built-in web search (no separate search API key).

  2. Create a new directory (e.g. deep-agent/) and do all work there — do not pollute the open project.

  3. Do not use Tavily (or @langchain/tavily). Replace the quickstart's search tool with the chosen provider's built-in web search. Look up the current export/tool shape on that provider's LangChain docs (examples as of writing — re-check if needed):

    Provider Built-in search tool
    Anthropic @langchain/anthropic tools.webSearch_*() (or equivalent dict)
    OpenAI { type: "web_search" }
    Google { google_search: {} }

    Prefer Anthropic / OpenAI / Google so provider search is available. Only secret: that provider's API key in .env (gitignored). Skip LangSmith tracing unless they ask.

  4. Install packages from the quickstart minus Tavily; add the provider package for their model.

  5. Run the research example, show output, then stop. Point to deep-agents-core / customization / Managed Deep Agents for next steps.

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
