Modular Python framework for AI agents and workflows with chain-of-thought reasoning, tools, and memory.
Griptape is a modular Python framework for building generative AI agents, pipelines, and workflows that connects to Claude via Anthropic's API through swappable Prompt Drivers, allowing developers to substitute Claude for other LLMs with minimal code changes. The framework organizes work into three structure types: Agents (single-task), Pipelines (sequential tasks where output feeds forward), and Workflows (parallel tasks). Supporting components include three memory layers (Conversation, Task, and Meta), a RAG Engine for retrieval-augmented generation, an Extraction Engine for pulling JSON or CSV from unstructured text, an Eval Engine for scoring output quality, and built-in Tools for web search, web scraping, file management, SQL access, image generation, and audio transcription. Drivers abstract external services for vector stores, embeddings, reranking, and observability platforms, making provider substitution straightforward. The framework targets Python developers building production AI applications who need composable, testable abstractions rather than monolithic integrations.
