![License: MIT](https://img.shields.io/badge/License-MIT-yellow.svg) [![Docs](https://img.shields.io/badge/docs-latest-blue)](https://the-pocket.github.io/PocketFlow/) Pocket Flow is a [100-line](pocketflow/__init__.py) minimalist LLM framework - **Lightweight**: Just 100 lines. Zero bloat, zero dependencies, zero vendor lock-in. - **Expressive**: Everything you loveβ€”([Multi-](https://the-pocket.github.io/PocketFlow/design_pattern/multi_agent.html))[Agents](https://the-pocket.github.io/PocketFlow/design_pattern/agent.html), [Workflow](https://the-pocket.github.io/PocketFlow/design_pattern/workflow.html), [RAG](https://the-pocket.github.io/PocketFlow/design_pattern/rag.html), and more. - **Agentic Coding**: Let AI Agents (e.g., Cursor AI) build Agentsβ€”10x productivity boost! - To install, ```pip install pocketflow```or just copy the [source code](pocketflow/__init__.py) (only 100 lines). - To learn more, check out the [documentation](https://the-pocket.github.io/PocketFlow/). For an in-depth design dive, read the [essay](https://github.com/The-Pocket/.github/blob/main/profile/pocketflow.md). - πŸŽ‰ We now have a [discord](https://discord.gg/hUHHE9Sa6T)! ## Why Pocket Flow? Current LLM frameworks are bloated... You only need 100 lines for LLM Framework!
