agentsop-framework-selection

agentsop-framework-selection is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from agentsope/SkillAlchemy. It costs 189 tokens per session (6,467 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A decision guide for choosing the right layer and framework for projects that use language models, AI agents, or document search. It compares options such as LangGraph, LlamaIndex, DSPy, CrewAI, vLLM, Aider, and Dify.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to assess a project’s needs, choose suitable framework layers, and compare options before implementation. It points to separate guides for learning each framework’s API.
Why use it?
It reduces guesswork when deciding which framework to use at the start of a project. It also explains where the frameworks overlap and where they serve different roles.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

agentsop-framework-selection scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 1mo ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Framework-Fit Decision Tree at Project Kickoff · SOP (ENHANCE overlay)

Overlay posture: this is the capstone Phase-D skill — the most-cited entry at any project kickoff. It decides which layer(s) you need and which framework owns each layer. It does not teach any framework's API; for that, descend to the per-framework SOPs (langgraph-sop, llamaindex-sop, dspy-sop, crewai-sop, vllm-sop, aider-sop, dify-sop). Every load-bearing claim carries an inline source tag resolving in references/R1-decision-tree.md.

Neutrality note: vendor pages each claim the center of the universe (LangChain: "use LangGraph for production"; LlamaIndex: "the document agent platform"; Dify: "scaffolding is the bottleneck"). This skill quotes those claims but does not adopt any of them. The 7 SOPs disagree on the crossover points; we surface the disagreements rather than papering over them.


1. 何时激活 (When to Activate)

Activate when any of the following fire:

  • A new LLM / agent / RAG project is starting and no framework has been chosen yet.
  • Someone asks "which framework should I use?" / "LangChain or LlamaIndex?" / "LangGraph vs CrewAI?" / "do we need a framework at all?"
  • A coder is about to pip install an orchestration / RAG / agent framework before having articulated what layers the project needs.
  • A project already picked one framework "for everything" and is now fighting it in a layer it was never good at (e.g., doing deep RAG inside CrewAI, or hand-rolling retrieval inside LangGraph).
  • A no-code / visual builder (Dify, Flowise, LangFlow) has hit a complexity ceiling and the team is asking "do we rewrite in code?"

Do not re-run this skill mid-implementation for a layer already chosen — that is churn. Run it once at kickoff, and again only when a new layer appears (e.g., "we now need to self-host the model" → triggers [[agentsop-llm-engine-selection]]).

Mental check: the wrong framework is the single highest-cost decision in the project — it is a one-week-to-reverse mistake, sometimes a one-month one. crewai-sop · OP-1, vllm-sop · OP-7. Spend 20 minutes on this tree before opening any tutorial.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
