+1. **🫠 LangChain-like frameworks** overwhelm Cursor AI with *complex* abstractions, *deprecated* functions and *irritating* dependency issues.
+2. 😐 **Without a framework**, code is *ad hoc*—suitable only for immediate tasks, *not modular or maintainable*.

+In short, the **100 lines** ensures LLM Agents follows *solid coding practices* without sacrificing *flexibility*.

- **For quick questions**: Use the [GPT assistant](https://chatgpt.com/g/g-677464af36588191b9eba4901946557b-pocket-flow-assistant) (note: it uses older models not ideal for coding).
- **For one-time LLM task**: Create a [ChatGPT](https://help.openai.com/en/articles/10169521-using-projects-in-chatgpt) or [Claude](https://www.anthropic.com/news/projects) project; upload the [docs](docs) to project knowledge.
- **For LLM App development**: Use [Cursor AI](https://www.cursor.com/).
- If you want to start a new project, check out the [project template](https://github.com/The-Pocket/PocketFlow-Template-Python).
- If you already have a project, copy [.cursorrules](.cursorrules) to your project root as [Cursor Rules](https://docs.cursor.com/context/rules-for-ai).
