Flask + LLM Orchestration: Designing a Stable Service Boundary

A technical note on keeping a Python/Flask API stable while an LLM orchestration layer changes independently.

Answer in one sentence

The valuable abstraction is a stable conversation service, not an API that leaks the implementation details of its current model pipeline.

HTTP contract

Define requests, responses, errors, authentication, and timeouts independently from the model library.

Orchestration layer

Prompt chains, memory, model selection, and tool calls can remain behind the service boundary.

Deployment surface

A running service needs configuration, logging, health behavior, and persistence choices that are not owned by the UI.

Replacement test

A new backend should satisfy the same contract and pass the same quality and reliability checks before it becomes a production replacement.
