Leveraging Elixir for Efficient Code Generation with LLM Agents

In this post, the author explains how leveraging LLMs can lead to more efficient code generation through direct execution rather than sequentially calling different tools. By utilizing Elixir's ecosystem and documentation, which includes practical examples, the author developed an agentic framework that integrates a virtual file system for agents to access code samples directly. This approach not only enhances speed and efficiency but also reduces the complexity involved in tool calling. Furthermore, the author addresses security concerns inherent in code generation by implementing a multi-layered security framework that mitigates risks associated with malicious input. With safety measures like scope management and sandboxing via the Dune library, the agentic framework promises both reliability and security when executing generated code.
