It does not use `Langchain` or `Llama-Index`.\n\nWe welcome contributions -- See the [contributions](./CONTRIBUTING.md) document\nfor ideas on what to contribute.\n\n**Questions, Feedback, Ideas?

You can easily do this with Langroid using a two-agent system,\nas we show in the [langroid-examples](https://github.com/langroid/langroid-examples/blob/main/examples/docqa/chat_multi_extract.py) repo.\nThe demo showcases just a few of the many features of Langroid, such as:\n- Multi-agent collaboration: `LeaseExtractor` is in charge of the task, and its LLM (GPT4) generates questions \nto be answered by the `DocAgent`.\n- Retrieval augmented question-answering, with **source-citation**: `DocAgent` LLM (GPT4) uses retrieval from a vector-store to \nanswer the `LeaseExtractor`\'s questions, cites the specific excerpt supporting the answer. \n- Function-calling (also known as tool/plugin): When it has all the information it \nneeds, the `LeaseExtractor` LLM presents the information in a structured \nformat using a Function-call. \n\nHere is what it looks like in action:\n\n![Demo](docs/assets/demos/lease-extractor-demo.gif)\n\n\n# :zap: Highlights\n\n- **Agents as first-class citizens:** The [Agent](https://langroid.github.io/langroid/reference/agent/base/#langroid.agent.base.Agent) class encapsulates LLM conversation state,\n  and optionally a vector-store and tools. Agents are a core abstraction in Langroid;\n  Agents act as _message transformers_, and by default provide 3 _responder_ methods, one corresponding to each entity: LLM, Agent, User.\n- **Tasks:** A [Task](https://langroid.github.io/langroid/reference/agent/task/) class wraps an Agent, and gives the agent instructions (or roles, or goals), \n  manages iteration over an Agent\'s responder methods, \n  and orchestrates multi-agent interactions via hierarchical, recursive\n  task-delegation. The `Task.run()` method has the same \n  type-signature as an Agent\'s responder\'s methods, and this is key to how \n  a task of an agent can delegate to other sub-tasks: from the point of view of a Task,\n  sub-tasks are simply additional responders, to be used in a round-robin fashion \n  after the agent\'s own responders.\n- **Modularity, Reusabilily, Loose coupling:** The `Agent` and `Task` abstractions allow users to design\n  Agents with specific skills, wrap them in Tasks, and combine tasks in a flexible way.\n- **LLM Support**: Langroid supports OpenAI LLMs including GPT-3.5-Turbo,\n  GPT-4.\n- **Caching of LLM responses:** Langroid supports [Redis](https://redis.com/try-free/) and \n  [Momento](https://www.gomomento.com/) to cache LLM responses.\n- **Vector-stores**: [Qdrant](https://qdrant.tech/) and [Chroma](https://www.trychroma.com/) are currently supported.\n  Vector stores allow for Retrieval-Augmented-Generation (RAG).\n- **Grounding and source-citation:** Access to external documents via vector-stores \n   allows for grounding and source-citation.\n- **Observability, Logging, Lineage:** Langroid generates detailed logs of multi-agent interactions and\n  maintains provenance/lineage of messages, so that you can trace back\n  the origin of a message.\n- **Tools/Plugins/Function-calling**: Langroid supports OpenAI\'s recently\n  released [function calling](https://platform.openai.com/docs/guides/gpt/function-calling)\n  feature. In addition, Langroid has its own native equivalent, which we\n  call **tools** (also known as "plugins" in other contexts). Function\n  calling and tools have the same developer-facing interface, implemented\n  using [Pydantic](https://docs.pydantic.dev/latest/),\n  which makes it very easy to define tools/functions and enable agents\n  to use them. Benefits of using Pydantic are that you never have to write\n  complex JSON specs for function calling, and when the LLM\n  hallucinates malformed JSON, the Pydantic error message is sent back to\n  the LLM so it can fix it!\n\n--- \n\n# :gear: Installation and Setup\n\n:whale: For a simpler setup, see the Docker section below, which lets you get started just\nby setting up environment variables in a `.env` file.\n\n### Install `langroid`\nLangroid requires Python 3.11+. We recommend using a virtual environment.\nUse `pip` to install `langroid` (from PyPi) to your virtual environment:\n```bash\npip install langroid\n```\nThe core Langroid package lets you use OpenAI Embeddings models via their API. \nIf you instead want to use the `all-MiniLM-L6-v2` embeddings model\nfrom from HuggingFace, install Langroid like this:\n```bash\npip install langroid[hf-embeddings]\n```\nNote that this will install `torch` and `sentence-transformers` libraries.\n\n<details>\n<summary><b>Optional Installs for using SQL Chat with a PostgreSQL DB </b></summary>\n\nIf you are using `SQLChatAgent` \n(e.g. the script [`examples/data-qa/sql-chat/sql_chat.py`](examples/data-qa/sql-chat/sql_chat.py)),\nwith a postgres db, you will need to:\n\n- Install PostgreSQL dev libraries for your platform, e.g.\n  - `sudo apt-get install libpq-dev` on Ubuntu,\n  - `brew install postgresql` on Mac, etc.\n- Install langroid with the postgres extra, e.g. `pip install langroid[postgres]`\n  or `poetry add langroid[postgres]` or `poetry install -E postgres`.\n  If this gives you an error, try `pip install psycopg2-binary` in your virtualenv.\n</details>\n\n### Set up environment variables (API keys, etc)\n\nTo get started, all you need is an OpenAI API Key.\nIf you don\'t have one, see [this OpenAI Page](https://help.openai.com/en/collections/3675940-getting-started-with-openai-api).\nCurrently only OpenAI models are supported.

This is only required if you want to use Qdrant cloud.\n  You can sign up for a free 1GB account at [Qdrant cloud](https://cloud.qdrant.io).\n  If you skip setting up these, Langroid will use Qdrant in local-storage mode.\n  Alternatively [Chroma](https://docs.trychroma.com/) is also currently supported. \n  We use the local-storage version of Chroma, so there is no need for an API key.\n  Langroid uses Qdrant by default.\n- **Redis** Password, host, port: This is optional, and only needed to cache LLM API responses\n  using Redis Cloud. Redis [offers](https://redis.com/try-free/) a free 30MB Redis account\n  which is more than sufficient to try out Langroid and even beyond.\n  If you don\'t set up these, Langroid will use a pure-python \n  Redis in-memory cache via the [Fakeredis](https://fakeredis.readthedocs.io/en/latest/) library.\n- **Momento** Serverless Caching of LLM API responses (as an alternative to Redis). \n   To use Momento instead of Redis:\n  - enter your Momento Token in the `.env` file, as the value of `MOMENTO_AUTH_TOKEN` (see example file below),\n  - in the `.env` file set `CACHE_TYPE=momento` (instead of `CACHE_TYPE=redis` which is the default).\n- **GitHub** Personal Access Token (required for apps that need to analyze git\n  repos; token-based API calls are less rate-limited). See this\n  [GitHub page](https://docs.github.com/en/authentication/keeping-your-account-and-data-secure/managing-your-personal-access-tokens).\n- **Google Custom Search API Credentials:** Only needed to enable an Agent to use the `GoogleSearchTool`.\n  To use Google Search as an LLM Tool/Plugin/function-call, \n  you\'ll need to set up \n  [a Google API key](https://developers.google.com/custom-search/v1/introduction#identify_your_application_to_google_with_api_key),\n  then [setup a Google Custom Search Engine (CSE) and get the CSE ID](https://developers.google.com/custom-search/docs/tutorial/creatingcse).\n  (Documentation for these can be challenging, we suggest asking GPT4 for a step-by-step guide.)\n  After obtaining these credentials, store them as values of \n  `GOOGLE_API_KEY` and `GOOGLE_CSE_ID` in your `.env` file. \n  Full documentation on using this (and other such "stateless" tools) is coming soon, but \n  in the meantime take a peek at this [chat example](examples/basic/chat-search.py), which \n  shows how you can easily equip an Agent with a `GoogleSearchtool`.\n  \n\n\nIf you add all of these optional variables, your `.env` file should look like this:\n```bash\nOPENAI_API_KEY=your-key-here-without-quotes\nGITHUB_ACCESS_TOKEN=your-personal-access-token-no-quotes\nCACHE_TYPE=redis # or momento\nREDIS_PASSWORD=your-redis-password-no-quotes\nREDIS_HOST=your-redis-hostname-no-quotes\nREDIS_PORT=your-redis-port-no-quotes\nMOMENTO_AUTH_TOKEN=your-momento-token-no-quotes # instead of REDIS* variables\nQDRANT_API_KEY=your-key\nQDRANT_API_URL=https://your.url.here:6333 # note port number must be included\nGOOGLE_API_KEY=your-key\nGOOGLE_CSE_ID=your-cse-id\n```\n</details>\n\n<details>\n<summary><b>Optional setup instructions for Microsoft Azure OpenAI(click to expand)</b></summary> \n\nWhen using Azure OpenAI, additional environment variables are required in the \n`.env` file.\nThis page [Microsoft Azure OpenAI](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/ai-services/openai/chatgpt-quickstart?tabs=command-line&pivots=programming-language-python#environment-variables)\nprovides more information, and you can set each environment variable as follows:\n\n- `AZURE_API_KEY`, from the value of `API_KEY`\n- `AZURE_OPENAI_API_BASE` from the value of `ENDPOINT`, typically looks like `https://your.domain.azure.com`.\n- For `AZURE_OPENAI_API_VERSION`, you can use the default value in `.env-template`, and latest version can be found [here](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/ai-services/openai/whats-new#azure-openai-chat-completion-general-availability-ga)\n- `AZURE_OPENAI_DEPLOYMENT_NAME` is the name of the deployed model, which is defined by the user during the model setup \n- `AZURE_GPT_MODEL_NAME` GPT-3.5-Turbo or GPT-4 model names that you chose when you setup your Azure OpenAI account.\n\n</details>\n\n---\n\n# :whale: Docker Instructions\n\nWe provide a containerized version of the [`langroid-examples`](https://github.com/langroid/langroid-examples) \nrepository via this [Docker Image](https://hub.docker.com/r/langroid/langroid).\nAll you need to do is set up environment variables in the `.env` file.\nPlease follow these steps to setup the container:\n\n```bash\n# get the .env file template from `langroid` repo\nwget https://github.com/langroid/langroid/blob/main/.env-template .env\n\n# Edit the .env file with your favorite editor (here nano), \n# and add API keys as explained above\nnano .env\n\n# launch the container\ndocker run -it  -v ./.env:/.env langroid/langroid\n\n# Use this command to run any of the scripts in the `examples` directory\npython examples/<Path/To/Example.py> \n``` \n\n\n\n# :tada: Usage Examples\n\nThese are quick teasers to give a glimpse of what you can do with Langroid\nand how your code would look. \n\n:warning: The code snippets below are intended to give a flavor of the code\nand they are **not** complete runnable examples!

The benefits are that you don\'t have to write\nany JSON to specify the schema, and also if the LLM hallucinates a malformed\ntool syntax, Langroid sends the Pydantic validation error (suitiably sanitized) \nto the LLM so it can fix it!\n\nSimple example: Say the agent has a secret list of numbers, \nand we want the LLM to find the smallest number in the list. \nWe want to give the LLM a `probe` tool/function which takes a\nsingle number `n` as argument. The tool handler method in the agent\nreturns how many numbers in its list are at most `n`.\n\nFirst define the tool using Langroid\'s `ToolMessage` class:\n\n\n```python\nfrom langroid.agent.tool_message import ToolMessage\nclass ProbeTool(ToolMessage):\n  request: str = "probe" # specifies which agent method handles this tool\n  purpose: str = """\n        To find how many numbers in my list are less than or equal to  \n        the <number> you specify.\n        """ # description used to instruct the LLM on when/how to use the tool\n  number: int  # required argument to the tool\n```\n\nThen define a `SpyGameAgent` as a subclass of `ChatAgent`, \nwith a method `probe` that handles this tool:\n\n```python\nfrom langroid.agent.chat_agent import ChatAgent, ChatAgentConfig\nclass SpyGameAgent(ChatAgent):\n  def __init__(self, config: ChatAgentConfig):\n    super().__init__(config)\n    self.numbers = [3, 4, 8, 11, 15, 25, 40, 80, 90]\n\n  def probe(self, msg: ProbeTool) -> str:\n    # return how many numbers in self.numbers are less or equal to msg.number\n    return str(len([n for n in self.numbers if n <= msg.number]))\n```\n\nWe then instantiate the agent and enable it to use and respond to the tool:\n\n```python\nfrom langroid.language_models.openai_gpt import OpenAIChatModel, OpenAIGPTConfig\nspy_game_agent = SpyGameAgent(\n    ChatAgentConfig(\n        name="Spy",\n        llm = OpenAIGPTConfig(\n            chat_model=OpenAIChatModel.GPT4,\n        ),\n        vecdb=None,\n        use_tools=False, #  don\'t use Langroid native tool\n        use_functions_api=True, # use OpenAI function-call API\n    )\n)\nspy_game_agent.enable_message(ProbeTool)\n```\n\nFor a full working example see the\n[chat-agent-tool.py](https://github.com/langroid/langroid-examples/blob/main/examples/quick-start/chat-agent-tool.py)\nscript in the `langroid-examples` repo.\n</details>\n\n<details>\n<summary> <b>Tool/Function-calling to extract structured information from text </b> </summary>\n\nSuppose you want an agent to extract \nthe key terms of a lease, from a lease document, as a nested JSON structure.\nFirst define the desired structure via Pydantic models:\n\n```python\nfrom pydantic import BaseModel\nclass LeasePeriod(BaseModel):\n    start_date: str\n    end_date: str\n\n\nclass LeaseFinancials(BaseModel):\n    monthly_rent: str\n    deposit: str\n\nclass Lease(BaseModel):\n    period: LeasePeriod\n    financials: LeaseFinancials\n    address: str\n```\n\nThen define the `LeaseMessage` tool as a subclass of Langroid\'s `ToolMessage`.\nNote the tool has a required argument `terms` of type `Lease`:\n\n```python\nclass LeaseMessage(ToolMessage):\n    request: str = "lease_info"\n    purpose: str = """\n        Collect information about a Commercial Lease.\n        """\n    terms: Lease\n```\n\nThen define a `LeaseExtractorAgent` with a method `lease_info` that handles this tool,\ninstantiate the agent, and enable it to use and respond to this tool:\n\n```python\nclass LeaseExtractorAgent(ChatAgent):\n    def lease_info(self, message: LeaseMessage) -> str:\n        print(\n            f"""\n        DONE!
