Mini LLM Flow

A 100-line minimalist LLM framework for agents, task decomposition, RAG, etc.

• Install via pip install minillmflow, or just copy the source (only 100 lines)

• Pro tip: Build LLM apps with LLMs assistants (ChatGPT, Claude, etc.) via this prompt

Why Mini LLM Flow?

In the future, LLM apps will be developed by LLMs: users specify requirements, and LLMs build, test, and maintain on their own. Current LLM assistants:

1. 😀 Shine at Low-level Implementation: With proper docs, LLMs can handle APIs, tools, chunking, prompt wrapping, etc. These are hard to maintain and optimize for a general-purpose framework.

2. ☹️ Struggle with High-level Paradigms: Paradigms like MapReduce, task decomposition, and agents are powerful for development. However, designing these elegantly remains challenging for LLMs.

To enable LLMs to develop LLM app, a framework should (1) remove specialized low-level implementations, and (2) keep high-level paradigms to program against. Hence, I built this framework that lets LLMs focus on what matters. It turns out 100 lines is all you need.
