<div align="center"> # LLM Agents Ecosystem Handbook **A practical operating manual for building, evaluating, securing, and shipping modern LLM agent systems.** [](https://awesome.re) [](LICENSE) [](CONTRIBUTING.md) [](llms.txt) [](providers/README.md) </div> --- > Modern agents are not "a prompt + a tool." They are **systems** — with identity, memory, skills, tools, MCP integrations, guardrails, observability, evals, and a provider strategy. This handbook teaches the whole stack and ships templates, blueprints, runnable adapters, and curated examples you can adopt today. ## What's in this repo A curated, opinionated, **production-oriented** handbook in seven parts: 1. **Concepts** — Agent OS, identity, memory, skills, MCP, safety, observability — every layer of the modern agent stack 2. **Provider ecosystem** — adapters + docs for **24+ LLM providers** (frontier APIs, fast inference, marketplaces, enterprise clouds, specialty, local runtimes), with a router for fallback chains 3. **Skills ecosystem** — design guide, taxonomy, maturity model, security checklist, and a curated skill catalog 4. **Prompt engineering** — agent prompt patterns, instruction hierarchy, context engineering, prompt-injection defense 5. **Coding-agent workflows** — for Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, Aider, Cline, and custom runtimes — repo instructions, prompts, review checklist, safe refactoring 6. **Design docs** — agent / technical design docs, ADR guide, design reviews, rollout plans, the `DESIGN.md` machine-readable spec 7. **Curated catalog** — 100+ existing agent skeletons, framework comparisons, evaluation tools, tutorials — preserved and improved ## Who this is for | You are… | Start at | |---|---| | New to agents | [docs/beginners_guide.md](docs/beginners_guide.md) → [agent_os/README.md](agent_os/README.md) | | Building a production agent | [blueprints/](blueprints/) → [checklists/production_readiness_checklist.md](checklists/production_readiness_checklist.md) | | Picking / wiring providers | [providers/README.md](providers/README.md) → [providers/provider_matrix.md](providers/provider_matrix.md) | | Comparing frameworks | [docs/framework_comparison.md](docs/framework_comparison.md) | | Adding memory / RAG | [memory/](memory/) → [tutorials/rag_tutorials](tutorials/rag_tutorials) | | Adding MCP | [mcp/](mcp/) → [mcp/mcp_security.md](mcp/mcp_security.md) | | Designing Skills | [skills/](skills/) → [skills/skill_design_guide.md](skills/skill_design_guide.md) | | Working with coding agents | [coding_agents/](coding_agents/) → [coding_agents/prompts/](coding_agents/prompts/) | | Writing better prompts | [prompt_engineering/](prompt_engineering/) | | Designing & rolling out | [design_docs/](design_docs/) | | Hardening safety/evals | [safety/](safety/) → [evals/](evals/) | | Coding agent reading this repo | [llms.txt](llms.txt) → [llm_wiki/index.md](llm_wiki/index.md) | --- ## Modern Agent Stack | Layer | Purpose | Where in this repo | |---|---|---| | **Model / Provider** | LLM choice + abstraction + routing | [providers/](providers/) | | **Orchestration** | Agent loops, planning, handoffs | [docs/framework_comparison.md](docs/framework_comparison.md), [blueprints/](blueprints/) | | **Tool** | Function calling and external actions | [agent_os/mcp_layer.md](agent_os/mcp_layer.md) | | **MCP** | Standardized external context and tools | [mcp/](mcp/) | | **Memory** | Durable user/project/semantic memory | [memory/](memory/) | | **Skills** | Reusable, progressive-loading workflows | [skills/](skills/) | | **Identity** | Personality, mission, refusal style | [agent_os/agent_identity.md](agent_os/agent_identity.md), [templates/](templa
