How-To Guides
|
|
=============
|
|
|
|
There are three types of examples in this section:
|
|
|
|
1. Agent Overview: how-to-guides for generic agent functionality
|
|
2. Agent Toolkits: how-to-guides for specific agent toolkits (agents optimized for interacting with a certain resource)
|
|
3. Agent Types: how-to-guides for working with the different agent types
|
|
|
|
Agent Overview
|
|
---------------
|
|
|
|
The first category of how-to guides here cover specific parts of working with agents.
|
|
|
|
`Load From Hub <./examples/load_from_hub.html>`_: This notebook covers how to load agents from `LangChainHub <https://github.com/hwchase17/langchain-hub>`_.
|
|
|
|
`Custom Tools <./examples/custom_tools.html>`_: How to create custom tools that an agent can use.
|
|
|
|
`Agents With Vectorstores <./examples/agent_vectorstore.html>`_: How to use vectorstores with agents.
|
|
|
|
`Intermediate Steps <./examples/intermediate_steps.html>`_: How to access and use intermediate steps to get more visibility into the internals of an agent.
|
|
|
|
`Custom Agent <./examples/custom_agent.html>`_: How to create a custom agent (specifically, a custom LLM + prompt to drive that agent).
|
|
|
|
`Multi Input Tools <./examples/multi_input_tool.html>`_: How to use a tool that requires multiple inputs with an agent.
|
|
|
|
`Search Tools <./examples/search_tools.html>`_: How to use the different type of search tools that LangChain supports.
|
|
|
|
`Max Iterations <./examples/max_iterations.html>`_: How to restrict an agent to a certain number of iterations.
|
|
|
|
`Asynchronous <./examples/async_agent.html>`_: Covering asynchronous functionality.

Agent Toolkits
|
|
---------------
|
|
|
|
The next set of examples covers agents with toolkits.
|
|
As opposed to the examples above, these examples are not intended to show off an agent `type`,
|
|
but rather to show off an agent applied to particular use case.
|
|
|
|
`SQLDatabase Agent <./agent_toolkits/sql_database.html>`_: This notebook covers how to interact with an arbitrary SQL database using an agent.
|
|
|
|
`JSON Agent <./agent_toolkits/json.html>`_: This notebook covers how to interact with a JSON dictionary using an agent.
|
|
|
|
`OpenAPI Agent <./agent_toolkits/openapi.html>`_: This notebook covers how to interact with an arbitrary OpenAPI endpoint using an agent.
|
|
|
|
`VectorStore Agent <./agent_toolkits/vectorstore.html>`_: This notebook covers how to interact with VectorStores using an agent.
|
|
|
|
`Python Agent <./agent_toolkits/python.html>`_: This notebook covers how to produce and execute python code using an agent.
|
|
|
|
`Pandas DataFrame Agent <./agent_toolkits/pandas.html>`_: This notebook covers how to do question answering over a pandas dataframe using an agent. Under the hood this calls the Python agent..
|
|
|
|
`CSV Agent <./agent_toolkits/csv.html>`_: This notebook covers how to do question answering over a csv file. Under the hood this calls the Pandas DataFrame agent.

Agent Types
|
|
---------------
|
|
|
|
The final set of examples are all end-to-end example of different agent types.
|
|
In all examples there is an Agent with a particular set of tools.
|
|
|
|
- Tools: A tool can be anything that takes in a string and returns a string. This means that you can use both the primitives AND the chains found in `this <../chains.html>`_ documentation. LangChain also provides a list of easily loadable tools. For detailed information on those, please see `this documentation <./tools.html>`_
|
|
- Agents: An agent uses an LLMChain to determine which tools to use. For a list of all available agent types, see `here <./agents.html>`_.
|
|
|
|
**MRKL**
|
|
|
|
- **Tools used**: Search, SQLDatabaseChain, LLMMathChain
|
|
- **Agent used**: `zero-shot-react-description`
|
|
- `Paper <https://arxiv.org/pdf/2205.00445.pdf>`_
|
|
- **Note**: This is the most general purpose example, so if you are looking to use an agent with arbitrary tools, please start here.
|
|
- `Example Notebook <./implementations/mrkl.html>`_
|
|
|
|
**Self-Ask-With-Search**
|
|
|
|
- **Tools used**: Search
|
|
- **Agent used**: `self-ask-with-search`
|
|
- `Paper <https://ofir.io/self-ask.pdf>`_
