NVIDIA Labs has open-sourced NOOA (NVIDIA Object-Oriented Agents), a model-agnostic Python framework for building AI agents. Agent development today is split across prompt templates, tool schemas, callback code, and workflow graphs. NOOA collapses all of it into one Python class. Methods are the actions the model can take. Fields are agent state. Docstrings are prompts. Type annotations are contracts the runtime enforces. A method whose body is ... is completed at runtime by an LLM-driven loop, while a method with a normal body stays deterministic Python. Developers and models therefore share one interface, so agent behavior can be tested, traced, refactored, and version-controlled like ordinary software. NVIDIA reports 82.2% on SWE-bench Verified, 86.8% on CyberGym L1, and 85.1% mean RHAE on ARC-AGI-3 — at roughly half the tokens of the open harnesses it was compared against.
Is it deployable?
Yes, but only inside OS-level isolation. NOOA is Apache 2.0, installs with pip install nooa (v0.0.8, released July 30, 2026), and requires Python 3.12–3.13. PyPI classifies it as alpha, and NVIDIA describes it as a research preview. Agents can execute LLM-generated code, and NVIDIA states directly that its AST checks and module deny-lists are defense-in-depth guardrails, not a containment boundary. The containment boundary is a container, a VM, or NVIDIA OpenShell. Models are pluggable through LiteLLM, so hosted APIs, Ollama, and vLLM endpoints all work.
