Pros
- +引导采样技术让未微调模型也能进行函数调用和结构化输出
- +支持多种后端提供商(llama-cpp-python、TGI、vllm等)提供良好兼容性
- +功能全面涵盖聊天、函数调用、RAG和代理链等核心能力
- +Voice-first architecture with built-in speech recognition and text-to-speech integration for natural conversational experiences
- +Comprehensive ecosystem with client SDKs for multiple platforms and additional tools for structured conversations and UI components
- +Modular, composable pipeline system that supports integration with various AI services and transport protocols for flexible development
Cons
- -项目已不再维护，官方建议迁移到其他框架
- -对于简单用例可能存在过度设计的复杂性
- -Python-only framework which may limit developers working primarily in other languages
- -Real-time voice processing complexity may require significant learning curve for developers new to audio/video handling
Use Cases
