About humanlayer/12-factor-agents

What are the principles we can use to build LLM-powered software that is actually good enough to put in the hands of production customers?

In the spirit of 12 Factor Apps. The source for this project is public at https://github.com/humanlayer/12-factor-agents, and I welcome your feedback and contributions. Let's figure this out together!

I've tried every agent framework out there, from the plug-and-play crew/langchains to the "minimalist" smolagents of the world to the "production grade" langraph, griptape, etc.
