Lagent is inspired by the design philosophy of PyTorch. We expect that the analogy of neural network layers will make the workflow clearer and more intuitive, so users only need to focus on creating layers and defining message passing between them in a Pythonic way. This is a simple tutorial to get you quickly started with building multi-agent applications.
Agents use AgentMessage
for communication.
from typing import Dict, List
from lagent.agents import Agent
from lagent.schema import AgentMessage
from lagent.llms import VllmModel, INTERNLM2_META
llm = VllmModel(
path='Qwen/Qwen2-7B-Instruct',
meta_template=INTERNLM2_META,
tp=1,
top_k=1,
temperature=1.0,
stop_words=['<|im_end|>'],
max_new_tokens=1024,
)
system_prompt = '你的回答只能从“典”、“孝”、“急”三个字中选一个。'
agent = Agent(llm, system_prompt)
user_msg = AgentMessage(sender='user', content='今天天气情况')
bot_msg = agent(user_msg)
print(bot_msg)
content='急' sender='Agent' formatted=None extra_info=None type=None receiver=None stream_state=<AgentStatusCode.END: 0>
Both input and output messages will be added to the memory of Agent
in each forward pass. This is performed in __call__
rather than forward
. See the following pseudo code
def __call__(self, *message):
message = pre_hooks(message)
add_memory(message)
message = self.forward(*message)
add_memory(message)
message = post_hooks(message)
return message
Inspect the memory in two ways
memory: List[AgentMessage] = agent.memory.get_memory()
print(memory)
print('-' * 120)
dumped_memory: Dict[str, List[dict]] = agent.state_dict()
print(dumped_memory['memory'])
[AgentMessage(content='今天天气情况', sender='user', formatted=None, extra_info=None, type=None, receiver=None, stream_state=<AgentStatusCode.END: 0>), AgentMessage(content='急', sender='Agent', formatted=None, extra_info=None, type=None, receiver=None, stream_state=<AgentStatusCode.END: 0>)]
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[{'content': '今天天气情况', 'sender': 'user', 'formatted': None, 'extra_info': None, 'type': None, 'receiver': None, 'stream_state': <AgentStatusCode.END: 0>}, {'content': '急', 'sender': 'Agent', 'formatted': None, 'extra_info': None, 'type': None, 'receiver': None, 'stream_state': <AgentStatusCode.END: 0>}]
Clear the memory of this session(session_id=0
by default):
agent.reset()
DefaultAggregator
is called under the hood to assemble and convert AgentMessage
to OpenAI message format.
def forward(self, *message: AgentMessage, session_id=0, **kwargs) -> Union[AgentMessage, str]:
formatted_messages = self.aggregator.aggregate(
self.memory.get(session_id),
self.name,
self.output_format,
self.template,
)
llm_response = self.llm.chat(formatted_messages, **kwargs)
...
Implement a simple aggregator that can receive few-shots
from typing import List, Union
from lagent.memory import Memory
from lagent.prompts import StrParser
from lagent.agents.aggregator import DefaultAggregator
class FewshotAggregator(DefaultAggregator):
def __init__(self, few_shot: List[dict] = None):
self.few_shot = few_shot or []
def aggregate(self,
messages: Memory,
name: str,
parser: StrParser = None,
system_instruction: Union[str, dict, List[dict]] = None) -> List[dict]:
_message = []
if system_instruction:
_message.extend(
self.aggregate_system_intruction(system_instruction))
_message.extend(self.few_shot)
messages = messages.get_memory()
for message in messages:
if message.sender == name:
_message.append(
dict(role='assistant', content=str(message.content)))
else:
user_message = message.content
if len(_message) > 0 and _message[-1]['role'] == 'user':
_message[-1]['content'] += user_message
else:
_message.append(dict(role='user', content=user_message))
return _message
agent = Agent(
llm,
aggregator=FewshotAggregator(
[
{"role": "user", "content": "今天天气"},
{"role": "assistant", "content": "【晴】"},
]
)
)
user_msg = AgentMessage(sender='user', content='昨天天气')
bot_msg = agent(user_msg)
print(bot_msg)
content='【多云转晴,夜间有轻微降温】' sender='Agent' formatted=None extra_info=None type=None receiver=None stream_state=<AgentStatusCode.END: 0>
In AgentMessage
, formatted
is reserved to store information parsed by output_format
from the model output.
def forward(self, *message: AgentMessage, session_id=0, **kwargs) -> Union[AgentMessage, str]:
...
llm_response = self.llm.chat(formatted_messages, **kwargs)
if self.output_format:
formatted_messages = self.output_format.parse_response(llm_response)
return AgentMessage(
sender=self.name,
content=llm_response,
formatted=formatted_messages,
)
...
Use a tool parser as follows
from lagent.prompts.parsers import ToolParser
system_prompt = "逐步分析并编写Python代码解决以下问题。"
parser = ToolParser(tool_type='code interpreter', begin='```python\n', end='\n```\n')
llm.gen_params['stop_words'].append('\n```\n')
agent = Agent(llm, system_prompt, output_format=parser)
user_msg = AgentMessage(
sender='user',
content='Marie is thinking of a multiple of 63, while Jay is thinking of a '
'factor of 63. They happen to be thinking of the same number. There are '
'two possibilities for the number that each of them is thinking of, one '
'positive and one negative. Find the product of these two numbers.')
bot_msg = agent(user_msg)
print(bot_msg.model_dump_json(indent=4))
{
"content": "首先,我们需要找出63的所有正因数和负因数。63的正因数可以通过分解63的质因数来找出,即\\(63 = 3^2 \\times 7\\)。因此,63的正因数包括1, 3, 7, 9, 21, 和 63。对于负因数,我们只需将上述正因数乘以-1。\n\n接下来,我们需要找出与63的正因数相乘的结果为63的数,以及与63的负因数相乘的结果为63的数。这可以通过将63除以每个正因数和负因数来实现。\n\n最后,我们将找到的两个数相乘得到最终答案。\n\n下面是Python代码实现:\n\n```python\ndef find_numbers():\n # 正因数\n positive_factors = [1, 3, 7, 9, 21, 63]\n # 负因数\n negative_factors = [-1, -3, -7, -9, -21, -63]\n \n # 找到与正因数相乘的结果为63的数\n positive_numbers = [63 / factor for factor in positive_factors]\n # 找到与负因数相乘的结果为63的数\n negative_numbers = [-63 / factor for factor in negative_factors]\n \n # 计算两个数的乘积\n product = positive_numbers[0] * negative_numbers[0]\n \n return product\n\nresult = find_numbers()\nprint(result)",

},

ActionExecutor
uses the same communication data structure as Agent
, but requires the content of input AgentMessage
to be a dict containing:
name
: tool name, e.g.'IPythonInterpreter'
,'WebBrowser.search'
.parameters
: keyword arguments of the tool API, e.g.{'command': 'import math;math.sqrt(2)'}
,{'query': ['recent progress in AI']}
.
You can register custom hooks for message conversion.
from lagent.hooks import Hook
from lagent.schema import ActionReturn, ActionStatusCode, AgentMessage
from lagent.actions import ActionExecutor, IPythonInteractive
class CodeProcessor(Hook):
def before_action(self, executor, message, session_id):
message = message.copy(deep=True)
message.content = dict(
name='IPythonInteractive', parameters={'command': message.formatted['action']}
)
return message
def after_action(self, executor, message, session_id):
action_return = message.content
if isinstance(action_return, ActionReturn):
if action_return.state == ActionStatusCode.SUCCESS:
response = action_return.format_result()
else:
response = action_return.errmsg
else:
response = action_return
message.content = response
return message
executor = ActionExecutor(actions=[IPythonInteractive()], hooks=[CodeProcessor()])
bot_msg = AgentMessage(
sender='Agent',
content='首先,我们需要...',
formatted={
'tool_type': 'code interpreter',
'thought': '首先,我们需要...',
'action': 'def find_numbers():\n # 正因数\n positive_factors = [1, 3, 7, 9, 21, 63]\n # 负因数\n negative_factors = [-1, -3, -7, -9, -21, -63]\n \n # 找到与正因数相乘的结果为63的数\n positive_numbers = [63 / factor for factor in positive_factors]\n # 找到与负因数相乘的结果为63的数\n negative_numbers = [-63 / factor for factor in negative_factors]\n \n # 计算两个数的乘积\n product = positive_numbers[0] * negative_numbers[0]\n \n return product\n\nresult = find_numbers()\nprint(result)',
'status': 1

For convenience, Lagent provides InternLMActionProcessor
which is adapted to messages formatted by ToolParser
as mentioned above.
Lagent adopts dual interface design, where almost every component(LLMs, actions, action executors...) has the corresponding asynchronous variant by prefixing its identifier with 'Async'. It is recommended to use synchronous agents for debugging and asynchronous ones for large-scale inference to make the most of idle CPU and GPU resources.
However, make sure the internal consistency of agents, i.e. asynchronous agents should be equipped with asynchronous LLMs and asynchronous action executors that drive asynchronous tools.
from lagent.llms import VllmModel, AsyncVllmModel, LMDeployPipeline, AsyncLMDeployPipeline
from lagent.actions import ActionExecutor, AsyncActionExecutor, WebBrowser, AsyncWebBrowser
from lagent.agents import Agent, AsyncAgent, AgentForInternLM, AsyncAgentForInternLM
- Try to implement
forward
instead of__call__
of subclasses unless necessary. - Always include the
session_id
argument explicitly, which is designed for isolation of memory, LLM requests and tool invocation(e.g. maintain multiple independent IPython environments) in concurrency.
