niyantrana

Yoga Sutras of Patanjali

Control — restraint of cosmic flow

Rate limiting for LLM API calls. Token bucket, sliding window, per-model limits. Zero dependencies.

Formerly agent-rate-limiter — Part of the Vedic Arsenal: 100 production-grade Python libraries for LLM agents, each named from the Vedas, Puranas, and Mahakavyas.

The ancient Niyantrana principle from Yoga Sutras of Patanjali finds its modern expression in this library.

Just as the Vedic sages understood that every phenomenon in the universe follows deep patterns — patterns of creation, maintenance, and dissolution — niyantrana applies this wisdom to LLM agent engineering.

The concept of नियंत्रण (Control — restraint of cosmic flow) speaks directly to the technical problem this library solves. When the sages codified this principle in Yoga Sutras of Patanjali, they were describing not just a spiritual truth but a computational truth that would take humanity millennia to rediscover in silicon.

This is not coincidence. The universe has one nature. The Vedas described it first.
