The minimalist Python framework for building AI agents

AgentFlow is a production-ready framework that makes building AI agents simple, testable, and extensible. Inspired by FastAPI's philosophy of developer experience first.

🚀 Key Features

  • 🧪 Best-in-class Testing - MockModel + AgentTestClient (FastAPI-inspired)
  • 🔌 Native MCP Support - First Python framework with MCP integration
  • ⚡ Async-First - Built on asyncio for maximum performance
  • 🛡️ Production-Ready - Robust loop with JSON auto-repair, timeout protection, loop detection
  • 🔧 Tool Ecosystem - Mix local Python tools with MCP servers seamlessly
  • 📦 Multi-LLM - Ollama, OpenAI, Mistral support out of the box
  • 💾 Flexible Memory - InMemory and FileMemory with custom backend support

📥 Installation

pip install agentflow-ai==1.0.6

⚡ Quick Start

Basic Usage

import asyncio
from agentflow import Agent

async def main():
    agent = Agent(model="llama3")
    response = await agent.arun("What is Python?")
    print(response)

asyncio.run(main())

With Tools

agent = Agent(model="gpt-4o")

@agent.tool
def multiply(a: int, b: int) -> int:
    """Multiply two numbers."""
    return a * b

response = await agent.arun("What is 123 * 456?")

With MCP Servers

from agentflow.mcp import MCPClient

# Connect to filesystem server
async with MCPClient(
    transport="stdio",
    command=["npx", "@modelcontextprotocol/server-filesystem", "/tmp"]
) as mcp:
    await agent.add_mcp_tools(mcp)
    response = await agent.arun("List files in /tmp")

🧪 Testing

from agentflow.testing import MockModel, AgentTestClient

# Test without real LLM calls
model = MockModel(responses=["Hello! I'm an AI assistant."])
agent = Agent(model=model)
client = AgentTestClient(agent)

response = client.run("Hello")
client.assert_response_contains("Hello")
# client.assert_tool_called("my_tool")  # Use this when testing tools
