rust-langgraph vs orichalcum vs adk-agent
Side-by-side comparison of Rust crates
Stateful graph runtime for LLM workflows in Rust (community project; not affiliated with LangChain). Pregel-style execution: nodes, conditional edges, checkpoints, streaming. Optional adapters for Ollama, OpenAI, OpenRouter (OpenAI-compatible), and Anthropic; optional ReAct agent + tools. Crate import: rust_langgraph (underscore). Default features include in-memory checkpoints. Enable Cargo features explicitly for LLM modules (e.g. ollama, openai, openrouter, anthropic, prebuilt). See README.md on crates.io for copy-paste Cargo.toml, env vars, and common mistakes.
A brutally-safe, composable agent orchestration framework for building complex, multi-step workflows.
