about
ControlFlow is a Python framework for building agentic AI workflows. An agentic workflow is a process that delegates at least some of its work to an LLM agent. An agent is an autonomous entity that is invoked repeatedly to make decisions and perform complex tasks. ControlFlow provides a structured, developer-focused framework for defining workflows and delegating work to LLMs, without sacrificing control or transparency: Create discrete, observable tasks for an AI to solve. Assign one or more specialized AI agents to each task. Combine tasks into a flow to orchestrate more complex behaviors. This task-centric approach allows you to harness the power of AI for complex workflows while maintaining fine-grained control. By defining clear objectives and constraints for each task, you can balance AI autonomy with precise oversight, letting you build sophisticated AI-powered applications with confidence.
