LangChain's @casparbr explains key terms for Managed Deep Agents:
- channel: connection between agent and external messaging service, e.g., Slack.
- sandbox: isolated execution environment with its own filesystem for safe shell commands.
- middleware: hook-based way to extend and control the agent loop.
- evals: repeatable tests to grade agent performance and catch regressions.
All covered in LangChain docs.
