What Hacker News says
4 sourcesJust released Swiftide 0.31 A Rust library for building LLM applications. From performing a simple prompt completion, to building fast, streaming indexing and querying pipelines, to building agents that can use tools and call other agents.
The release is absolutely packed:
- Graph like workflows with tasks
- Langfuse integration via tracing
- Ground-work for multi-modal pipelines
- Structured prompts with SchemaRs
... and a lot more, shout-out to all our contributors and users for making it possible <3
Even went wild with my drawing skills.
Full write up on all the things in this release at our https://blog.bosun.ai/swiftide-0-31/ and on https://github.com/bosun-ai/swiftide.

In Swiftide 0.31Hey everyone,
Just shipped a major release for Swiftide. Swiftide provides the building blocks to build composable agentic and RAG applications.
Shoutout to wulawulu for contributing a Kafka integration! <3
A major new staple is a straight-forward way for human-in-the-loop interaction. Human-in-the-loop pattern is a common solution for GenAI agents to provide them with feedback and some measure of safety.
Additionally there's a host of new features, improvements, and fixes. You can find the project on [github](https://github.com/bosun-ai/swiftide).
In [dead]I do wonder though if assuming the reader is lazy is the best. Especially in technical posts. I think there is a difficulty in balancing forcing the person to digest what you say and making it approachable (especially when you consider a noisy audience). It is a natural filter, is that good or bad? Guess depends.
Agreed about the microbenchmarks and scale. Things don't always scale as expected. But I think there are a lot of variables here so it might be difficult to portray an accurate expected result. Though I can see this being worthwhile for anyone wanting to build RAGs or process lots of text into some embeddings. Also looks like the project is still under active development and started 6 months ago (single dev?) so I'm not sure we should expect to see too big of scale: https://github.com/bosun-ai/swiftide
So idk, that seems like exa

ctly the kinda thing HN should be well suited for: new projects where people are hacking together useful frameworks. But idk, I guess if YC is funding companies who's business model is to fork an OSS then the bar might be lower than I think. But I thought we were supposed to be hackers (not necessarily crackers) ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
