Crawler Summary

apflow answer-first brief

The core of `aipflow` is **task orchestration and execution specifications**. It provides a unified task orchestration framework that supports execution of multiple task types. The core is **pure orchestration** with no LLM dependencies - CrewAI support is optional. apflow <p align="center"> <img src="apflow-logo.svg" alt="apflow Logo" width="128" height="128" /> </p> **Distributed Task Orchestration Framework** apflow is a distributed task orchestration framework that scales from a single process to multi-node clusters.

Setup snapshot

1
Setup complexity is LOW. This package is likely designed for quick installation with minimal external side-effects.
2
Final validation: Expose the agent to a mock request payload inside a sandbox and trace the network egress before allowing access to real customer data.

apflow

Distributed Task Orchestration Framework

apflow is a distributed task orchestration framework that scales from a single process to multi-node clusters. It provides a unified execution interface with 12+ built-in executors, A2A protocol support, and automatic leader election with failover.

Start standalone in 30 seconds. Scale to distributed clusters without code changes.

Deployment Modes

Standalone (Development and Small Workloads)

pip install apflow

Single process, DuckDB storage, zero configuration. Ideal for development, testing, and small-scale automation.

from apflow.core.builders import TaskBuilder
from apflow import TaskManager, create_session

db = create_session()
task_manager = TaskManager(db)
result = await (
    TaskBuilder(task_manager, "rest_executor")
    .with_name("fetch_data")
    .with_input("url", "https://api.example.com/data")
    .with_input("method", "GET")
    .execute()
)

Distributed Cluster (Production)

pip install apflow[standard]

PostgreSQL-backed, leader/worker topology with automatic leader election, task leasing, and horizontal scaling. Same application code -- only the runtime environment changes.

# Leader node
APFLOW_CLUSTER_ENABLED=true \
APFLOW_DATABASE_URL=postgresql+asyncpg://user:pass@db:5432/apflow \
APFLOW_NODE_ROLE=auto \
apflow serve --port 8000

# Worker node (on additional machines)
APFLOW_CLUSTER_ENABLED=true \
APFLOW_DATABASE_URL=postgresql+asyncpg://user:pass@db:5432/apflow \
APFLOW_NODE_ROLE=worker \
apflow serve --port 8001

Add worker nodes at any time. The cluster auto-discovers them via the shared database.
