[Open Source] LLM Agents & Ecosystem Handbook — 60+ agent skeletons + tutorials for devs who want to build with LLMs
https://www.reddit.com/r/programming/comments/1nbch63/open_source_llm_agents_ecosystem_handbook_60/

<!-- SC_OFF -->Hey everyone, I’ve been working on an open-source project called LLM Agents & Ecosystem Handbook, aimed at developers who want to explore the practical side of building with large language models. Why it might interest programmers (even if you’re not deep into ML): - 🛠 60+ agent skeletons (each with its own README + main.py) to show design patterns (scraping, analysis, scheduling, translation, RAG, MCP integrations, voice, games…)
- 📚 Tutorials on RAG, memory, fine-tuning, and building chat agents over custom data (like PDFs or APIs)
- ⚙ Framework comparison: what to use when (LangChain, AutoGen, CrewAI, Smolagents, etc.)
- 🛠 Tools & infra: evaluation frameworks, local inference options (Ollama, llama.cpp), LLMOps practices
- ⚡ Agent generator noscript to scaffold new projects fast The idea is to provide a “handbook” — part educational, part practical — so devs can go from “I want to try LLMs” to building working prototypes and production-ready agents. Repo link: https://github.com/oxbshw/LLM-Agents-Ecosystem-Handbook Would love to hear feedback from the programming community — especially around design patterns and best practices for structuring these agents. <!-- SC_ON --> submitted by /u/Fearless-Role-2707 (https://www.reddit.com/user/Fearless-Role-2707)
