NoLag with CrewAI
CrewAI is a framework for orchestrating teams of role-playing autonomous agents, or crews, that collaborate on a task. It is good at defining roles, tasks, and how a crew works together within a run. NoLag is complementary: it is the realtime layer that connects those agents to each other, to your services, to a UI, and to a human, across processes and machines.
CrewAI defines the crew; NoLag moves the messages between the crew, the rest of your system, and the people watching.
What each layer does
| CrewAI | NoLag | |
|---|---|---|
| Role | Agent roles, tasks, collaboration | Realtime transport and coordination |
| Scope | Within a crew run | Across agents, services, humans, and UIs |
| Gives you | Roles, task delegation, process flow | Dispatch, shared state, live observation, approval gates, presence |
Why add NoLag under CrewAI
- Coordinate beyond one run. Dispatch tasks to workers in other processes or services over topics.
- Share state in realtime. Publish results so other agents, dashboards, or humans see them live.
- Stream the crew's progress to a UI. Show what each agent is doing as it happens.
- Human approval gates. Hold a sensitive action until a person approves it.
How it fits
Call the NoLag SDK from inside your CrewAI agents or tools. When an agent produces output or needs input from elsewhere, publish or subscribe on a NoLag topic. CrewAI keeps owning the crew logic; NoLag carries the realtime communication.
