**PuffinFlow is a high-performance Python framework for building production-ready LLM workflows and multi-agent systems.**
Perfect for AI engineers, data scientists, and backend developers who need to build reliable, scalable, and observable workflow orchestration systems.
## Quick Start
Install PuffinFlow:
```bash
pip install puffinflow
```
Create your first agent with state management:
```python
from puffinflow import Agent, state
class DataProcessor(Agent):
@state(cpu=2.0, memory=1024.0)
async def fetch_data(self, context):
"""Fetch data from external source."""
data = await get_external_data()
context.set_variable("raw_data", data)
return "validate_data" if data else "error"
@state(cpu=1.0, memory=512.0)
async def validate_data(self, context):
"""Validate the fetched data."""
data = context.get_variable("raw_data")
if self.is_valid(data):
return "process_data"
return "error"
@state(cpu=4.0, memory=2048.0)
async def process_data(self, context):
"""Process the validated data."""
data = context.get_variable("raw_data")
result = await self.transform_data(data)
context.set_output("processed_data", result)
return "complete"
# Run the agent
agent = DataProcessor("data-processor")
result = await agent.run()
```
## Core Features
**Production-Ready Performance**: Sub-millisecond latency for basic operations with throughput exceeding 12,000 ops/s.
**Intelligent Resource Management**: Automatic allocation and management of CPU, memory, and other resources with built-in quotas and limits.
**Zero-Configuration Observability**: Comprehensive monitoring with OpenTelemetry integration, custom metrics, distributed tracing, and real-time alerting.
**Built-in Reliability**: Circuit breakers, bulkheads, timeout handling, and leak detection ensure robust operation under failure conditions.
**Multi-Agent Coordination**: Scale from single agents to complex multi-agent workflows with teams, pools, and orchestrators.
**Seamless Development Experience**: Prototype quickly and transition to production without code rewrites.
