Migration Between Frameworks

Agent Kernel makes it easy to migrate:

# Original CrewAI implementation
from crewai import Agent
from agentkernel.crewai import CrewAIModule

agent = Agent(role="assistant", ...)
CrewAIModule([agent])

# Migrate to OpenAI (change 2 lines)
from agents import Agent
from agentkernel.openai import OpenAIModule

agent = Agent(name="assistant", ...)
OpenAIModule([agent])

Your execution code (CLI, API, deployment) remains unchanged!
