Decision brief
Continuum is an agent runtime platform by ShyftLabs for building and orchestrating AI agents using Dockerized infrastructure profiles to manage dependencies and environment configurations.
Good fit when
- Use Continuum when you require fine-grained control over the operational environments of your AI agents through its minimal, standard, or full infrastructure profiles.
- If your project benefits from built-in observability layers like Langfuse for tracing and logging during agent operations, Continuum's integration provides this out-of-the-box.
Avoid when
- Avoid using Continuum if you prefer a setup without Docker dependencies for running your AI agents as it heavily relies on Dockerized infrastructure.
- If the specific use case does not need extensive observability or complex runtime configurations, then alternatives with less overhead might be more suitable.
- Requirements:
- Requires Docker; Python version 3.13+ required.

🚀 Quick start Requirements: Python 3.13+ and Docker (for Redis · Qdrant/Milvus · Langfuse). ships with the package — it locates the bundled Docker stack and starts it for you, so there's no compose file to find or copy. It defaults to the minimal profile (Redis + Qdrant); pick a...
