Pipelex features

  • Declarative MTHDS language. Write typed AI methods in a Dockerfile/SQL-like syntax that defines steps, inputs, and outputs.
  • Agent plugins. Claude Code and Codex plugins let agents design, run, and save methods directly from the IDE.
  • Multi-environment execution. Run methods as a chatbot MCP, a webapp, or via API/CLI on any infrastructure.
  • Open standard runtime. Pipelex runtime executes methods locally or in Docker, handling model routing and structured output.
  • SDKs and integrations. TypeScript (@pipelex/sdk) and Python (pipelex-sdk) clients generate typed calls to the Pipelex API.
  • VS Code extension. Provides syntax highlighting, linting, and formatting for .mthds files.

ThriveOnDev features

  • Bounded delivery graph. Implements, reviews, fixes and releases code with a three-attempt review loop before human handoff.
  • Policy-aware provider routing. Runs use your own API keys at provider rates and enforce per-user, per-tenant credentials.
  • Tenant-scoped Kubernetes jobs. Each agent run executes in an isolated, audit-ready Kubernetes job within your cluster.
  • Versioned skills repository. Define and share implement, review, fix-review and audit steps across all agents and providers.
  • Run receipts & telemetry. Every run records outcome, runtime, cost and model for transparent ROI measurement.
  • Self-hosted Helm deployment. Install the full control plane on-premises with SSO/OIDC, offline license validation and air-gapped support.
