Agent Developmenet Environment (ADE)
The cloud/web ADE is avilable at https://app.letta.com, and can connect to your Letta server running on localhost
, as well as self-hosted deployments.
If you would like to run Letta completely locally (both the server and ADE), you can also use Letta Desktop instead (currently in alpha).
The ADE is an integrated development environment which allows you to create, edit, interact with and monitor Letta agents. You can use the ADE to chat with agents you’ve already created, or to design new agents from scratch - editing their memory state, data sources, and even customizing their tools all from within the ADE.

Main ADE features
You can use the ADE to create, edit, and test agents running inside a Letta Server. The ADE provides you direct visibility into your agent’s state, including its context window, core memory blocks, attached tools, and archival memory (e.g. vector database).
👾 Agent Simulator
The agent simulator (center panel) provides a real-time view of your agent’s conversation and event history. Beyond just chatting, you can send system messages (e.g. for meta/event style messages) and observe how your agent processes information and makes decisions.
⚙️ Agent Configuration

🧠 State Visualization
Monitor your agent’s state in real-time (right panel):
