LangGraph is presented not as an extension of LangChain, but as a distinct framework for building complex AI agents with stateful workflows. The core concept emphasizes defining state schemas, interrupts, and recovery mechanisms before execution, rather than treating it as a simple sequential chain. Key aspects highlighted include the importance of state management through reducers, the separation between graph description and runtime via `compile()`, and the integration of human-in-the-loop approvals as a critical execution contract for safety and reliability.
