Thanks for sharing. Can you add a simple example that is more concrete and less abstrwct to the docs? It would be easier for people to understand if you did.

yep, here's one https://github.com/lmnr-ai/flow?tab=readme-ov-file#llm-agent...

Thanks!

I tend to agree the graph approach is wrong. I have a meta question though - there seems to be a huge amount of activity in this space of LLM agent related developer tooling. Are people actually successfully and reliably delivering services which use LLMs? (Meaning services which are not just themselves exposing LLMs or chat style interfaces). It seems like 18 months ago people were running around terrified, but now…

I once had a dream to be a writer. I made a tool that was going to help me write every day. The most insightful feedback I got was: "Wow, aspiring writers will do anything to avoid writing!"

I think something similar applies here: you see way more dev tools than successful products because people can't build many successful products using LLMs. Building a devtool (the old-fashioned way) is something that people can tangibly do.
