 **Mini LLM Flow** allows fully asynchronous nodes by implementing `prep_async()`, `exec_async()`, `exec_fallback_async()`, and/or `post_async()`. This is useful for:

 # Mini LLM Flow

+A [100-line](https://github.com/zachary62/miniLLMFlow/blob/main/minillmflow/__init__.py) minimalist LLM framework for *Agents, Task Decomposition, RAG, etc*.
 
-We model the LLM workflow as a **Nested Flow**:
-- Each **Node** handles a simple LLM task.
-- Nodes are chained together to form a **Flow** for compute-intensive tasks.
-- One Node can be chained to multiple Nodes through **Actions** as an agent.
-- A Flow can be treated as a Node for **Nested Flows**.
-- Both Nodes and Flows can be **Batched** for data-intensive tasks.
-- Nodes and Flows can be **Async** for user inputs.
-- **Async** Nodes and Flows can be executed in **Parallel**.
+We model the LLM workflow as a **Nested Directed Graph**:
+- **Nodes** handle simple (LLM) tasks.
+- Nodes connect through **Actions** (labeled edges) for *Agents*.  
+- **Flows** orchestrate a directed graph of Nodes for *Task Decomposition*.
+- A Flow can be used as a Node (for **Nesting**).
+- **Batch** Nodes/Flows for data-intensive tasks.
+- **Async** Nodes/Flows allow waits or **Parallel** execution

 **Parallel** Nodes and Flows let you run multiple tasks **concurrently**—for example, summarizing multiple texts at once. Unlike a regular **BatchNode**, which processes items sequentially, **AsyncParallelBatchNode** and **AsyncParallelBatchFlow** can fire off tasks in parallel. This can improve performance by overlapping I/O and compute.
