Show HN: Airflow AI SDK to build simple LLM workflows

Hi HN,<p>We&#x27;ve built an SDK for building DAGs &#x2F; data pipelines with LLMs in Apache Airflow [1] using Pydantic AI [2] under the hood. I&#x27;ve seen success across the board with Airflow users building simple LLM workflows before moving on to &quot;AI agents&quot;. In my experience, the noise around building agents means that people forget that there are other ways to get more immediate value out of LLMs.<p>Coupling Airflow for orchestration and Pydantic AI for LLM interactions has turned out to be a very pragmatic approach to building these workflows (and agents). Neither tool &quot;gets in the way&quot; of what you&#x27;re trying to do. Airflow&#x27;s been around for 10+ years and has a very well-built orchestration engine rich with everything you need to write production grade data pipelines, and Pydantic AI&#x27;s been a refreshing take on working with LLMs.<p>Would love some feedback from this community!<p>[1] <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;apache&#x2F;airflow" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;apache&#x2F;airflow</a> [2] <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;ai.pydantic.dev" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;ai.pydantic.dev</a>
