This is the only package most projects install. Point `skein` at your existing `langgraph.json` and
|
|

your graph code, config, and clients keep working unchanged — the swap from the LangGraph CLI is a

one-word change (`langgraph dev` → `skein dev`).

### When the LangGraph Platform is the better call
|
|
28
|
-
|
|
29
|
-
skein-js isn't strictly better — it's a different trade, and it's worth being clear about what the Enterprise plan actually buys. It isn't hosting: even on LangGraph's self-hosted tier you still run your own Postgres, Redis, and infrastructure. What you're paying for is **LangChain's support** — dedicated support, response-time SLAs, and architectural guidance from the team that builds LangGraph — plus enterprise features like SSO, RBAC, and SOC2. If you're an established product with real revenue and you want a vendor standing behind your agent stack, that's genuine value, and the Platform is a sound choice.
|
|
30
|
-
|
|
31
|
-
skein-js gives you the code and full ownership — not a support contract. **It's for you if** you're earlier-stage or cost-sensitive, don't need (or don't want to buy) an enterprise support relationship, want to keep data in your own infrastructure, run a TypeScript/Node stack, or just want to own your agent infrastructure end to end with no license and no vendor lock-in.
|
|
32
|
-
|
|
33
|
-
The graph code and `langgraph.json` stay unchanged — see the full [Why skein-js comparison](../../README.md#why-skein-js) and the [reuse-first architecture](../../docs/reuse.md).

## What it does
|
|
36
|
-
|
|
37
|
-
`skein dev` (in-process, hot reload, no Docker), `skein up` (Docker Compose: app + Postgres + Redis), `skein build` / `skein dockerfile`. The one-word swap from `langgraph dev` → `skein dev`.
|
|
38
|
-
|
|
39
|
-
## Reuse
|
|
40
|
-
|
|
41
|
-
Mirrors `@langchain/langgraph-cli` semantics and reads an unchanged `langgraph.json`. Reuses `@skein-js/config` (built on `@langchain/langgraph-api`'s parser) for graph loading.

|
-
Swap it into your `package.json` scripts
|
|
52
|
-
|
|
32
|
+
Swap it into your `package.json` scripts — your `langgraph.json` is unchanged:
|
|
33
|
+
|
|
34
|
+
```jsonc
|
|
35
|
+
{
|
|
36
|
+
"scripts": {
|
|
37
|
+
"dev": "skein dev", // was: "langgraph dev"
|
|
38
|
+
"up": "skein up", // was: "langgraph up"
|
|
39
|
+
},
|
|
40
|
+
}
|
|
41
|
+
```
|
|
42
|
+
|
|
43
|
+
Then run the dev server (in-process, hot reload, no Docker):
|
|
53
44
|
|
|
54
45
|
```bash
|
|
55
|
-
|
|
46
|
+
pnpm skein dev # → http://127.0.0.1:2024
|
|
56
47
|
```
|
|
57
48
|
|
|
58
|
-
|
|
49
|
+
Talk to it with the official `@langchain/langgraph-sdk` client, `useStream`, Agent Chat UI, or
|
|

|
+
LangGraph Studio — any Agent Protocol client works with only a URL change. See the

`skein dev --store postgres --queue redis` is a capability the LangGraph CLI does **not** offer: it
|
|
70
77
|
lets you develop against **production-shaped** storage (durable Postgres checkpoints, pgvector
|
|
71
|
-
search, cross-instance Redis streaming) with hot reload and no Docker.
|
|
72
|

`

|

search, cross-instance Redis streaming) with hot reload and no Docker. Full mapping and the
|
|

|
+
## Self-hosted, no lock-in
|
|
82
|
+
|
|
83
|
+
skein-js is **Apache-2.0** and builds only on the **MIT-licensed** `@langchain/*` packages, so you
|
|
84
|
+
run your LangGraph.js graphs behind the standard Agent Protocol on **your own infrastructure** — no
|
|
85
|
+
license key, no per-deployment fee, and no vendor lock-in. `skein up` brings up a Docker Compose
|
|
86
|
+
stack (app + your Postgres + your Redis) that you own end to end.
|
|
87
|
+
|
|
88
|
+
## When the managed platform may fit you better
|
|
89
|
+
|
|
90
|
+
skein-js gives you the code and full ownership, not a support contract. If you're an established
|
|
91
|
+
product that wants a vendor standing behind your agent stack — dedicated support with response-time
|
|
92
|
+
SLAs, plus enterprise features like SSO, RBAC, and SOC2 — LangGraph Platform's Enterprise plan is a
|
|
93
|
+
sound choice. Your graph code and `langgraph.json` stay unchanged either way, so switching between
|
|
94
|
+
them is cheap. See the [reuse-first architecture](../../docs/reuse.md) for how little skein-js adds
|
|
95
|
+
on top of the open LangGraph runtime.
