LLM State Machine is an open-source Python framework designed to construct AI agents using explicit state machines. Developers define states as discrete steps—each invoking a large language model or custom logic—and transitions based on outputs. This approach provides clarity, maintainability, and robust error handling for multi-step, LLM-powered workflows, such as document processing, conversational bots, or automation pipelines.

Continuum is an open-source Python framework that enables developers to construct intelligent agents by defining tasks, tools, and memory in a composable manner. Agents built with Continuum follow a plan-execute-observe loop, allowing interleaving of LLM reasoning with external API calls or scripts. Its pluggable architecture supports multiple memory stores (e.g., Redis, SQLite), custom tool libraries, and asynchronous execution. With a focus on flexibility, users can write custom agent policies, integrate third-party services like databases or webhooks, and deploy agents across environments. Continuum’s event-driven orchestration logs agent actions, facilitating debugging and performance tuning. Whether automating data ingestion, building conversational assistants, or orchestrating DevOps pipelines, Continuum provides a scalable foundation for production-grade AI agent workflows.
