The LLM Framework Ecosystem
Key abstractions, architectural patterns, pitfalls and selection criteria for the main frameworks of the LLM ecosystem. Each one is disassembled atomically.

The Python Utility Stack for LLM Pipelines
LLM applications live not only on models. Around them there is almost always templating, structure validation, string sanitization, JSON parsing, regex, file paths, batching, caching, async I/O and little standard library functions that save hours. This volume is not about “AI”, but about service Python, which makes the LLM pipeline stable and readable.

Production LangChain + LangGraph: Code Structure & Runtime
This volume answers a more applied question: how does a real Python project on LangChain + LangGraph spread out into files? Not “which framework is better”, but where exactly “state”, “context”, “tools”, “middleware”, “nodes”, “graph.compile(...)”, “checkpointer”, “store”, HTTP-endpoints, “thread id”, streaming and “resume” live. This is a codebase map, not a concept map.

Mini-Repository: FastAPI + LangGraph + LangChain as a Service
This volume does not answer the question “how to write another agent”, but the question “how to make a live external application”. At the center is one solid Python mini-repo: ‘FastAPI’ as a public HTTP/SSE layer, ‘LangGraph’ as runtime, ‘LangChain’ as a layer of models, tools and middleware, external persistence for threads, scaling, auth, health/readiness and a separate place for ‘MCP’ as a tool/data plane.

Starter Kit: FastAPI + LangGraph + LangChain by File
It's almost a project template. Not an abstract architecture, but a small, but production-focused starter kit: what files to create, what to put in them, how to assemble a ‘FastAPI’ service, where ‘LangGraph’ and ‘LangChain’ live, how to add durability, streaming, ‘resume’, tests, Docker and an optional ‘MCP’ layer.

Deployment & DevOps for an LLM Service
This volume is not about the code inside the agent, but about the operation outside: ingress, TLS, forwarded headers, “root path”, probes, secrets, queues, tracing, metrics, token/cost budgets, autoscaling, rollout/rollback and the place of “MCP” in the production circuit. This is a map of what it takes for an LLM service to not just run, but live and experience real traffic.
