# Lightrun agents, SDKs and distributables
generated: '2026-07-19'
method: searched
source: npm, PyPI and https://docs.lightrun.com/
notes: >-
  Lightrun's client libraries are runtime *agents* embedded in the application process
  rather than API client SDKs — the Public REST API has no generated client library.
  npm `lightrun` and PyPI `lightrun` are first-party and version-locked to the Lightrun
  server release train (both at 1.89.0). The Java and .NET agents are distributed as
  downloadable archives from the Management Portal, not via Maven Central or NuGet
  (both were probed and return no first-party Lightrun coordinates).
