ChatTogetherAI
==============
Setup[β](#setup "Direct link to Setup")
---------------------------------------
1. Create a TogetherAI account and get your API key [here](https://api.together.xyz/).
2. Export or set your API key inline. The ChatTogetherAI class defaults to `process.env.TOGETHER_AI_API_KEY`.
export TOGETHER_AI_API_KEY=your-api-key
You can use models provided by TogetherAI as follows:
tip
See [this section for general instructions on installing integration packages](/v0.2/docs/how_to/installation#installing-integration-packages).
* npm
* Yarn
* pnpm
npm install @langchain/community
yarn add @langchain/community
pnpm add @langchain/community
tip
We're unifying model params across all packages. We now suggest using `model` instead of `modelName`, and `apiKey` for API keys.
import { ChatTogetherAI } from "@langchain/community/chat_models/togetherai";import { HumanMessage } from "@langchain/core/messages";const model = new ChatTogetherAI({ temperature: 0.9, // In Node.js defaults to process.env.TOGETHER_AI_API_KEY apiKey: "YOUR-API-KEY",});console.log(await model.invoke([new HumanMessage("Hello there!")]));
#### API Reference:
* [ChatTogetherAI](https://v02.api.js.langchain.com/classes/langchain_community_chat_models_togetherai.ChatTogetherAI.html) from `@langchain/community/chat_models/togetherai`
* [HumanMessage](https://v02.api.js.langchain.com/classes/langchain_core_messages.HumanMessage.html) from `@langchain/core/messages`
Tool calling & JSON mode[β](#tool-calling--json-mode "Direct link to Tool calling & JSON mode")
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The TogetherAI chat supports JSON mode and calling tools.
### Tool calling[β](#tool-calling "Direct link to Tool calling")
import { ChatTogetherAI } from "@langchain/community/chat_models/togetherai";import { ChatPromptTemplate } from "@langchain/core/prompts";import { convertToOpenAITool } from "@langchain/core/utils/function_calling";import { Calculator } from "@langchain/community/tools/calculator";// Use a pre-built toolconst calculatorTool = convertToOpenAITool(new Calculator());const modelWithCalculator = new ChatTogetherAI({ temperature: 0, // This is the default env variable name it will look for if none is passed. apiKey: process.env.TOGETHER_AI_API_KEY, // Together JSON mode/tool calling only supports a select number of models model: "mistralai/Mixtral-8x7B-Instruct-v0.1",}).bind({ // Bind the tool to the model. tools: [calculatorTool], tool_choice: calculatorTool, // Specify what tool the model should use});const prompt = ChatPromptTemplate.fromMessages([ ["system", "You are a super not-so-smart mathmatician."], ["human", "Help me out, how can I add {math}?"],]);// Use LCEL to chain the prompt to the model.const response = await prompt.pipe(modelWithCalculator).invoke({ math: "2 plus 3",});console.log(JSON.stringify(response.additional_kwargs.tool_calls));/**[ { "id": "call_f4lzeeuho939vs4dilwd7267", "type":"function", "function": { "name":"calculator", "arguments": "{\"input\":\"2 + 3\"}" } }] */
#### API Reference:
* [ChatTogetherAI](https://v02.api.js.langchain.com/classes/langchain_community_chat_models_togetherai.ChatTogetherAI.html) from `@langchain/community/chat_models/togetherai`

tip
See a LangSmith trace of the above example [here](https://smith.langchain.com/public/5082ea20-c2de-410f-80e2-dbdfbf4d8adb/r).
### JSON mode[β](#json-mode "Direct link to JSON mode")
To use JSON mode you must include the string "JSON" inside the prompt. Typical conventions include telling the model to use JSON, eg: `Respond to the user in JSON format`.
import { ChatTogetherAI } from "@langchain/community/chat_models/togetherai";import { ChatPromptTemplate } from "@langchain/core/prompts";// Define a JSON schema for the responseconst responseSchema = { type: "object", properties: { orderedArray: { type: "array", items: { type: "number", }, }, }, required: ["orderedArray"],};const modelWithJsonSchema = new ChatTogetherAI({ temperature: 0, apiKey: process.env.TOGETHER_AI_API_KEY, model: "mistralai/Mixtral-8x7B-Instruct-v0.1",}).bind({ response_format: { type: "json_object", // Define the response format as a JSON object schema: responseSchema, // Pass in the schema for the model's response },});const prompt = ChatPromptTemplate.fromMessages([ ["system", "You are a helpful assistant who responds in JSON."], ["human", "Please list this output in order of DESC {unorderedList}."],]);// Use LCEL to chain the prompt to the model.const response = await prompt.pipe(modelWithJsonSchema).invoke({ unorderedList: "[1, 4, 2, 8]",});console.log(JSON.parse(response.content as string));/**{ orderedArray: [ 8, 4, 2, 1 ] } */
#### API Reference:
* [ChatTogetherAI](https://v02.api.js.langchain.com/classes/langchain_community_chat_models_togetherai.ChatTogetherAI.html) from `@langchain/community/chat_models/togetherai`
* [ChatPromptTemplate](https://v02.api.js.langchain.com/classes/langchain_core_prompts.ChatPromptTemplate.html) from `@langchain/core/prompts`
tip
See a LangSmith trace of the above example [here](https://smith.langchain.com/public/3864aebb-5096-4b5f-b096-e54ddd1ec3d2/r).
Behind the scenes, TogetherAI uses the OpenAI SDK and OpenAI compatible API, with some caveats:
* Certain properties are not supported by the TogetherAI API, see [here](https://docs.together.ai/reference/chat-completions).

Google PaLM
===========
note
This integration does not support `gemini-*` models. Check [Google AI](/v0.2/docs/integrations/chat/google_generativeai) or [VertexAI](/v0.2/docs/integrations/llms/google_vertex_ai).
The [Google PaLM API](https://developers.generativeai.google/products/palm) can be integrated by first installing the required packages:
tip
See [this section for general instructions on installing integration packages](/v0.2/docs/how_to/installation#installing-integration-packages).
* npm
* Yarn
* pnpm
npm install google-auth-library @google-ai/generativelanguage @langchain/community
yarn add google-auth-library @google-ai/generativelanguage @langchain/community
pnpm add google-auth-library @google-ai/generativelanguage @langchain/community
Create an **API key** from [Google MakerSuite](https://makersuite.google.com/app/apikey). You can then set the key as `GOOGLE_PALM_API_KEY` environment variable or pass it as `apiKey` parameter while instantiating the model.
import { GooglePaLM } from "@langchain/community/llms/googlepalm";export const run = async () => { const model = new GooglePaLM({ apiKey: "<YOUR API KEY>", // or set it in environment variable as `GOOGLE_PALM_API_KEY` // other params temperature: 1, // OPTIONAL model: "models/text-bison-001", // OPTIONAL maxOutputTokens: 1024, // OPTIONAL topK: 40, // OPTIONAL topP: 3, // OPTIONAL safetySettings: [ // OPTIONAL { category: "HARM_CATEGORY_DANGEROUS", threshold: "BLOCK_MEDIUM_AND_ABOVE", }, ], stopSequences: ["stop"], // OPTIONAL }); const res = await model.invoke( "What would be a good company name for a company that makes colorful socks?" ); console.log({ res });};

==========
Langchain.js supports two different authentication methods based on whether you're running in a Node.js environment or a web environment.
Setup[β](#setup "Direct link to Setup")
---------------------------------------
### Node.js[β](#nodejs "Direct link to Node.js")
To call Vertex AI models in Node, you'll need to install [Google's official auth client](https://www.npmjs.com/package/google-auth-library) as a peer dependency.
You should make sure the Vertex AI API is enabled for the relevant project and that you've authenticated to Google Cloud using one of these methods:
* You are logged into an account (using `gcloud auth application-default login`) permitted to that project.
* You are running on a machine using a service account that is permitted to the project.
* You have downloaded the credentials for a service account that is permitted to the project and set the `GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS` environment variable to the path of this file.
* npm
* Yarn
* pnpm
npm install google-auth-library
yarn add google-auth-library
pnpm add google-auth-library
### Web[β](#web "Direct link to Web")
To call Vertex AI models in web environments (like Edge functions), you'll need to install the [`web-auth-library`](https://github.com/kriasoft/web-auth-library) pacakge as a peer dependency:
* npm
* Yarn
* pnpm
npm install web-auth-library
yarn add web-auth-library
pnpm add web-auth-library
Then, you'll need to add your service account credentials directly as a `GOOGLE_VERTEX_AI_WEB_CREDENTIALS` environment variable:
GOOGLE_VERTEX_AI_WEB_CREDENTIALS={"type":"service_account","project_id":"YOUR_PROJECT-12345",...}
You can also pass your credentials directly in code like this:
tip
See [this section for general instructions on installing integration packages](/v0.2/docs/how_to/installation#installing-integration-packages).
* npm
* Yarn
* pnpm
npm install @langchain/community
yarn add @langchain/community
pnpm add @langchain/community
import { GoogleVertexAI } from "@langchain/community/llms/googlevertexai";const model = new GoogleVertexAI({ authOptions: { credentials: {"type":"service_account","project_id":"YOUR_PROJECT-12345",...}, },});
Usage[β](#usage "Direct link to Usage")
---------------------------------------
Several models are available and can be specified by the `model` attribute in the constructor. These include:
* text-bison (default)
* text-bison-32k
* code-gecko
* code-bison
import { GoogleVertexAI } from "@langchain/community/llms/googlevertexai";// Or, if using the web entrypoint:// import { GoogleVertexAI } from "@langchain/community/llms/googlevertexai/web";/* * Before running this, you should make sure you have created a * Google Cloud Project that is permitted to the Vertex AI API. * * You will also need permission to access this project / API. * Typically, this is done in one of three ways: * - You are logged into an account permitted to that project. * - You are running this on a machine using a service account permitted to * the project. * - The `GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS` environment variable is set to the * path of a credentials file for a service account permitted to the project. */const model = new GoogleVertexAI({ temperature: 0.7,});const res = await model.invoke( "What would be a good company name for a company that makes colorful socks?");console.log({ res });
#### API Reference:
* [GoogleVertexAI](https://v02.api.js.langchain.com/classes/langchain_community_llms_googlevertexai.GoogleVertexAI.html) from `@langchain/community/llms/googlevertexai`
Google also has separate models for their "Codey" code generation models.
The "code-gecko" model is useful for code completion:
import { GoogleVertexAI } from "@langchain/community/llms/googlevertexai";/* * Before running this, you should make sure you have created a * Google Cloud Project that is permitted to the Vertex AI API. * * You will also need permission to access this project / API. * Typically, this is done in one of three ways: * - You are logged into an account permitted to that project. * - You are running this on a machine using a service account permitted to * the project. * - The `GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS` environment variable is set to the * path of a credentials file for a service account permitted to the project. */const model = new GoogleVertexAI({ model: "code-gecko",});const res = await model.invoke("for (let co=0;");console.log({ res });
#### API Reference:
* [GoogleVertexAI](https://v02.api.js.langchain.com/classes/langchain_community_llms_googlevertexai.GoogleVertexAI.html) from `@langchain/community/llms/googlevertexai`
While the "code-bison" model is better at larger code generation based on a text prompt:
import { GoogleVertexAI } from "@langchain/community/llms/googlevertexai";/* * Before running this, you should make sure you have created a * Google Cloud Project that is permitted to the Vertex AI API. * * You will also need permission to access this project / API. * Typically, this is done in one of three ways: * - You are logged into an account permitted to that project. * - You are running this on a machine using a service account permitted to * the project. * - The `GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS` environment variable is set to the * path of a credentials file for a service account permitted to the project. */const model = new GoogleVertexAI({ model: "code-bison", maxOutputTokens: 2048,});const res = await model.invoke( "A Javascript function that counts from 1 to 10.");console.log({ res });
#### API Reference:
* [GoogleVertexAI](https://v02.api.js.langchain.com/classes/langchain_community_llms_googlevertexai.GoogleVertexAI.html) from `@langchain/community/llms/googlevertexai`
### Streaming[β](#streaming "Direct link to Streaming")
Streaming in multiple chunks is supported for faster responses:
import { GoogleVertexAI } from "@langchain/community/llms/googlevertexai";const model = new GoogleVertexAI({ temperature: 0.7,});const stream = await model.stream( "What would be a good company name for a company that makes colorful socks?");for await (const chunk of stream) { console.log("\n---------\nChunk:\n---------\n", chunk);}/* --------- Chunk: --------- 1.

Azure OpenAI
============
[Azure OpenAI](https://azure.microsoft.com/products/ai-services/openai-service/) is a cloud service to help you quickly develop generative AI experiences with a diverse set of prebuilt and curated models from OpenAI, Meta and beyond.
LangChain.js supports integration with [Azure OpenAI](https://azure.microsoft.com/products/ai-services/openai-service/) using either the dedicated [Azure OpenAI SDK](https://github.com/Azure/azure-sdk-for-js/tree/main/sdk/openai/openai) or the [OpenAI SDK](https://github.com/openai/openai-node).
You can learn more about Azure OpenAI and its difference with the OpenAI API on [this page](https://learn.microsoft.com/azure/ai-services/openai/overview). If you don't have an Azure account, you can [create a free account](https://azure.microsoft.com/free/) to get started.
Using Azure OpenAI SDK[β](#using-azure-openai-sdk "Direct link to Using Azure OpenAI SDK")
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
You'll first need to install the [`@langchain/azure-openai`](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@langchain/azure-openai) package:
tip
See [this section for general instructions on installing integration packages](/v0.2/docs/how_to/installation#installing-integration-packages).
* npm
* Yarn
* pnpm
npm install -S @langchain/azure-openai
yarn add @langchain/azure-openai
pnpm add @langchain/azure-openai
tip
We're unifying model params across all packages. We now suggest using `model` instead of `modelName`, and `apiKey` for API keys.
You'll also need to have an Azure OpenAI instance deployed. You can deploy a version on Azure Portal following [this guide](https://learn.microsoft.com/azure/ai-services/openai/how-to/create-resource?pivots=web-portal).
Once you have your instance running, make sure you have the endpoint and key. You can find them in the Azure Portal, under the "Keys and Endpoint" section of your instance.
You can then define the following environment variables to use the service:
AZURE_OPENAI_API_ENDPOINT=<YOUR_ENDPOINT>AZURE_OPENAI_API_KEY=<YOUR_KEY>AZURE_OPENAI_API_EMBEDDING_DEPLOYMENT_NAME=<YOUR_EMBEDDING_DEPLOYMENT_NAME>
Alternatively, you can pass the values directly to the `AzureOpenAI` constructor:
import { AzureOpenAI } from "@langchain/azure-openai";const model = new AzureOpenAI({ azureOpenAIEndpoint: "<your_endpoint>", apiKey: "<your_key>", azureOpenAIApiDeploymentName: "<your_embedding_deployment_name",});
If you're using Azure Managed Identity, you can also pass the credentials directly to the constructor:
import { DefaultAzureCredential } from "@azure/identity";import { AzureOpenAI } from "@langchain/azure-openai";const credentials = new DefaultAzureCredential();const model = new AzureOpenAI({ credentials, azureOpenAIEndpoint: "<your_endpoint>", azureOpenAIApiDeploymentName: "<your_embedding_deployment_name",});
### Usage example[β](#usage-example "Direct link to Usage example")
import { AzureOpenAIEmbeddings } from "@langchain/azure-openai";const model = new AzureOpenAIEmbeddings();const res = await model.embedQuery( "What would be a good company name for a company that makes colorful socks?");console.log({ res });
#### API Reference:
* [AzureOpenAIEmbeddings](https://v02.api.js.langchain.com/classes/langchain_azure_openai.AzureOpenAIEmbeddings.html) from `@langchain/azure-openai`
Using OpenAI SDK[β](#using-openai-sdk "Direct link to Using OpenAI SDK")
------------------------------------------------------------------------
The `OpenAIEmbeddings` class can also use the OpenAI API on Azure to generate embeddings for a given text. By default it strips new line characters from the text, as recommended by OpenAI, but you can disable this by passing `stripNewLines: false` to the constructor.
For example, if your Azure instance is hosted under `https://{MY_INSTANCE_NAME}.openai.azure.com/openai/deployments/{DEPLOYMENT_NAME}`, you could initialize your instance like this:
tip
See [this section for general instructions on installing integration packages](/v0.2/docs/how_to/installation#installing-integration-packages).
* npm
* Yarn
* pnpm
npm install @langchain/openai
yarn add @langchain/openai
pnpm add @langchain/openai
import { OpenAIEmbeddings } from "@langchain/openai";const embeddings = new OpenAIEmbeddings({ azureOpenAIApiKey: "YOUR-API-KEY", // In Node.js defaults to process.env.AZURE_OPENAI_API_KEY azureOpenAIApiVersion: "YOUR-API-VERSION", // In Node.js defaults to process.env.AZURE_OPENAI_API_VERSION azureOpenAIApiInstanceName: "{MY_INSTANCE_NAME}", // In Node.js defaults to process.env.AZURE_OPENAI_API_INSTANCE_NAME azureOpenAIApiDeploymentName: "{DEPLOYMENT_NAME}", // In Node.js defaults to process.env.AZURE_OPENAI_API_EMBEDDINGS_DEPLOYMENT_NAME});
If you'd like to initialize using environment variable defaults, the `process.env.AZURE_OPENAI_API_EMBEDDINGS_DEPLOYMENT_NAME` will be used first, then `process.env.AZURE_OPENAI_API_DEPLOYMENT_NAME`. This can be useful if you're using these embeddings with another Azure OpenAI model.
If your instance is hosted under a domain other than the default `openai.azure.com`, you'll need to use the alternate `AZURE_OPENAI_BASE_PATH` environment variable. For example, here's how you would connect to the domain `https://westeurope.api.microsoft.com/openai/deployments/{DEPLOYMENT_NAME}`:
import { OpenAIEmbeddings } from "@langchain/openai";const embeddings = new OpenAIEmbeddings({ azureOpenAIApiKey: "YOUR-API-KEY", azureOpenAIApiVersion: "YOUR-API-VERSION", azureOpenAIApiDeploymentName: "{DEPLOYMENT_NAME}", azureOpenAIBasePath: "https://westeurope.api.microsoft.com/openai/deployments", // In Node.js defaults to process.env.AZURE_OPENAI_BASE_PATH});

=======
[Amazon Bedrock](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/bedrock/latest/userguide/what-is-service.html) is a fully managed service that makes base models from Amazon and third-party model providers accessible through an API.
When this documentation was written, Bedrock supports one model for text embeddings, the Titan Embeddings G1 - Text model (amazon.titan-embed-text-v1). This model supports text retrieval, semantic similarity, and clustering. The maximum input text is 8K tokens and the maximum output vector length is 1536.
Setup[β](#setup "Direct link to Setup")
---------------------------------------
To use this embedding, please ensure you have the Bedrock runtime client installed in your project.

tip
We're unifying model params across all packages. We now suggest using `model` instead of `modelName`, and `apiKey` for API keys.
Usage[β](#usage "Direct link to Usage")
---------------------------------------
The `BedrockEmbeddings` class uses the AWS Bedrock API to generate embeddings for a given text. It strips new line characters from the text as recommended.
/* eslint-disable @typescript-eslint/no-non-null-assertion */import { BedrockEmbeddings } from "@langchain/community/embeddings/bedrock";const embeddings = new BedrockEmbeddings({ region: process.env.BEDROCK_AWS_REGION!, credentials: { accessKeyId: process.env.BEDROCK_AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID!, secretAccessKey: process.env.BEDROCK_AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY!, }, model: "amazon.titan-embed-text-v1", // Default value});const res = await embeddings.embedQuery( "What would be a good company name a company that makes colorful socks?");console.log({ res });
#### API Reference:
* [BedrockEmbeddings](https://v02.api.js.langchain.com/classes/langchain_community_embeddings_bedrock.BedrockEmbeddings.html) from `@langchain/community/embeddings/bedrock`
Configuring the Bedrock Runtime Client[β](#configuring-the-bedrock-runtime-client "Direct link to Configuring the Bedrock Runtime Client")
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
You can pass in your own instance of the `BedrockRuntimeClient` if you want to customize options like `credentials`, `region`, `retryPolicy`, etc.
import { BedrockRuntimeClient } from "@aws-sdk/client-bedrock-runtime";import { BedrockEmbeddings } from "langchain/embeddings/bedrock";const client = new BedrockRuntimeClient({ region: "us-east-1", credentials: getCredentials(),});const embeddings = new BedrockEmbeddings({ client,});

Google Vertex AI
================
The `GoogleVertexAIEmbeddings` class uses Google's Vertex AI PaLM models to generate embeddings for a given text.
The Vertex AI implementation is meant to be used in Node.js and not directly in a browser, since it requires a service account to use.
Before running this code, you should make sure the Vertex AI API is enabled for the relevant project in your Google Cloud dashboard and that you've authenticated to Google Cloud using one of these methods:
* You are logged into an account (using `gcloud auth application-default login`) permitted to that project.
* You are running on a machine using a service account that is permitted to the project.
* You have downloaded the credentials for a service account that is permitted to the project and set the `GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS` environment variable to the path of this file.
tip
See [this section for general instructions on installing integration packages](/v0.2/docs/how_to/installation#installing-integration-packages).

Google PaLM
===========
note
This integration does not support `embeddings-*` model. Check [Google AI](/v0.2/docs/integrations/text_embedding/google_generativeai) embeddings.
The [Google PaLM API](https://developers.generativeai.google/products/palm) can be integrated by first installing the required packages:
tip
See [this section for general instructions on installing integration packages](/v0.2/docs/how_to/installation#installing-integration-packages).
* npm
* Yarn
* pnpm
npm install google-auth-library @google-ai/generativelanguage @langchain/community
yarn add google-auth-library @google-ai/generativelanguage @langchain/community
pnpm add google-auth-library @google-ai/generativelanguage @langchain/community
Create an **API key** from [Google MakerSuite](https://makersuite.google.com/app/apikey). You can then set the key as `GOOGLE_PALM_API_KEY` environment variable or pass it as `apiKey` parameter while instantiating the model.
import { GooglePaLMEmbeddings } from "@langchain/community/embeddings/googlepalm";const model = new GooglePaLMEmbeddings({ apiKey: "<YOUR API KEY>", // or set it in environment variable as `GOOGLE_PALM_API_KEY` model: "models/embedding-gecko-001", // OPTIONAL});/* Embed queries */const res = await model.embedQuery( "What would be a good company name for a company that makes colorful socks?");console.log({ res });/* Embed documents */const documentRes = await model.embedDocuments(["Hello world", "Bye bye"]);console.log({ documentRes });

On this page
Gradient AI
===========
The `GradientEmbeddings` class uses the Gradient AI API to generate embeddings for a given text.
Setup[β](#setup "Direct link to Setup")
---------------------------------------
You'll need to install the official Gradient Node SDK as a peer dependency:
* npm
* Yarn
* pnpm
npm i @gradientai/nodejs-sdk
yarn add @gradientai/nodejs-sdk
pnpm add @gradientai/nodejs-sdk
You will need to set the following environment variables for using the Gradient AI API.
export GRADIENT_ACCESS_TOKEN=<YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN>export GRADIENT_WORKSPACE_ID=<YOUR_WORKSPACE_ID>
Alternatively, these can be set during the GradientAI Class instantiation as `gradientAccessKey` and `workspaceId` respectively. For example:
const model = new GradientEmbeddings({ gradientAccessKey: "My secret Access Token" workspaceId: "My secret workspace id"});
Usage[β](#usage "Direct link to Usage")
---------------------------------------
import { GradientEmbeddings } from "@langchain/community/embeddings/gradient_ai";const model = new GradientEmbeddings({});const res = await model.embedQuery( "What would be a good company name a company that makes colorful socks?");console.log({ res });
#### API Reference:
* [GradientEmbeddings](https://v02.api.js.langchain.com/classes/langchain_community_embeddings_gradient_ai.GradientEmbeddings.html) from `@langchain/community/embeddings/gradient_ai`

On this page
Llama CPP
=========
Compatibility
Only available on Node.js.
This module is based on the [node-llama-cpp](https://github.com/withcatai/node-llama-cpp) Node.js bindings for [llama.cpp](https://github.com/ggerganov/llama.cpp), allowing you to work with a locally running LLM. This allows you to work with a much smaller quantized model capable of running on a laptop environment, ideal for testing and scratch padding ideas without running up a bill!
Setup[β](#setup "Direct link to Setup")
---------------------------------------
You'll need to install the [node-llama-cpp](https://github.com/withcatai/node-llama-cpp) module to communicate with your local model.
* npm
* Yarn
* pnpm
npm install -S node-llama-cpp
yarn add node-llama-cpp
pnpm add node-llama-cpp
tip
See [this section for general instructions on installing integration packages](/v0.2/docs/how_to/installation#installing-integration-packages).
* npm
* Yarn
* pnpm
npm install @langchain/community
yarn add @langchain/community
pnpm add @langchain/community
You will also need a local Llama 2 model (or a model supported by [node-llama-cpp](https://github.com/withcatai/node-llama-cpp)). You will need to pass the path to this model to the LlamaCpp module as a part of the parameters (see example).
Out-of-the-box `node-llama-cpp` is tuned for running on a MacOS platform with support for the Metal GPU of Apple M-series of processors. If you need to turn this off or need support for the CUDA architecture then refer to the documentation at [node-llama-cpp](https://withcatai.github.io/node-llama-cpp/).
For advice on getting and preparing `llama2` see the documentation for the LLM version of this module.
A note to LangChain.js contributors: if you want to run the tests associated with this module you will need to put the path to your local model in the environment variable `LLAMA_PATH`.
Usage[β](#usage "Direct link to Usage")
---------------------------------------
### Basic use[β](#basic-use "Direct link to Basic use")
We need to provide a path to our local Llama2 model, also the `embeddings` property is always set to `true` in this module.
import { LlamaCppEmbeddings } from "@langchain/community/embeddings/llama_cpp";const llamaPath = "/Replace/with/path/to/your/model/gguf-llama2-q4_0.bin";const embeddings = new LlamaCppEmbeddings({ modelPath: llamaPath,});const res = embeddings.embedQuery("Hello Llama!");console.log(res);/* [ 15043, 365, 29880, 3304, 29991 ]*/
#### API Reference:
* [LlamaCppEmbeddings](https://v02.api.js.langchain.com/classes/langchain_community_embeddings_llama_cpp.LlamaCppEmbeddings.html) from `@langchain/community/embeddings/llama_cpp`
### Document embedding[β](#document-embedding "Direct link to Document embedding")
import { LlamaCppEmbeddings } from "@langchain/community/embeddings/llama_cpp";const llamaPath = "/Replace/with/path/to/your/model/gguf-llama2-q4_0.bin";const documents = ["Hello World!", "Bye Bye!"];const embeddings = new LlamaCppEmbeddings({ modelPath: llamaPath,});const res = await embeddings.embedDocuments(documents);console.log(res);/* [ [ 15043, 2787, 29991 ], [ 2648, 29872, 2648, 29872, 29991 ] ]*/
#### API Reference:
* [LlamaCppEmbeddings](https://v02.api.js.langchain.com/classes/langchain_community_embeddings_llama_cpp.LlamaCppEmbeddings.html) from `@langchain/community/embeddings/llama_cpp`

HuggingFace Inference
=====================
This Embeddings integration uses the HuggingFace Inference API to generate embeddings for a given text using by default the `sentence-transformers/distilbert-base-nli-mean-tokens` model. You can pass a different model name to the constructor to use a different model.
Setup[β](#setup "Direct link to Setup")
---------------------------------------
You'll first need to install the [`@langchain/community`](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@langchain/community) package and the required peer dep:

Minimax
=======
The `MinimaxEmbeddings` class uses the Minimax API to generate embeddings for a given text.
Setup
=====
To use Minimax model, you'll need a [Minimax account](https://api.minimax.chat), an [API key](https://api.minimax.chat/user-center/basic-information/interface-key), and a [Group ID](https://api.minimax.chat/user-center/basic-information)
Usage
=====
import { MinimaxEmbeddings } from "langchain/embeddings/minimax";export const run = async () => { /* Embed queries */ const embeddings = new MinimaxEmbeddings(); const res = await embeddings.embedQuery("Hello world"); console.log(res); /* Embed documents */ const documentRes = await embeddings.embedDocuments([ "Hello world", "Bye bye", ]); console.log({ documentRes });};

TensorFlow
==========
This Embeddings integration runs the embeddings entirely in your browser or Node.js environment, using [TensorFlow.js](https://www.tensorflow.org/js). This means that your data isn't sent to any third party, and you don't need to sign up for any API keys. However, it does require more memory and processing power than the other integrations.
* npm
* Yarn
* pnpm
npm install @tensorflow/tfjs-core@3.6.0 @tensorflow/tfjs-converter@3.6.0 @tensorflow-models/universal-sentence-encoder@1.3.3 @tensorflow/tfjs-backend-cpu
yarn add @tensorflow/tfjs-core@3.6.0 @tensorflow/tfjs-converter@3.6.0 @tensorflow-models/universal-sentence-encoder@1.3.3 @tensorflow/tfjs-backend-cpu
pnpm add @tensorflow/tfjs-core@3.6.0 @tensorflow/tfjs-converter@3.6.0 @tensorflow-models/universal-sentence-encoder@1.3.3 @tensorflow/tfjs-backend-cpu
import "@tensorflow/tfjs-backend-cpu";import { TensorFlowEmbeddings } from "langchain/embeddings/tensorflow";const embeddings = new TensorFlowEmbeddings();
This example uses the CPU backend, which works in any JS environment. However, you can use any of the backends supported by TensorFlow.js, including GPU and WebAssembly, which will be a lot faster. For Node.js you can use the `@tensorflow/tfjs-node` package, and for the browser you can use the `@tensorflow/tfjs-backend-webgl` package. See the [TensorFlow.js documentation](https://www.tensorflow.org/js/guide/platform_environment) for more information.

HuggingFace Transformers
========================
The `TransformerEmbeddings` class uses the [Transformers.js](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers.js/index) package to generate embeddings for a given text.
It runs locally and even works directly in the browser, allowing you to create web apps with built-in embeddings.
Setup[β](#setup "Direct link to Setup")
---------------------------------------
You'll need to install the [@xenova/transformers](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@xenova/transformers) package as a peer dependency:
* npm
* Yarn
* pnpm
npm install @xenova/transformers
yarn add @xenova/transformers
pnpm add @xenova/transformers
tip
See [this section for general instructions on installing integration packages](/v0.2/docs/how_to/installation#installing-integration-packages).
* npm
* Yarn
* pnpm
npm install @langchain/community
yarn add @langchain/community
pnpm add @langchain/community
Example[β](#example "Direct link to Example")
---------------------------------------------
Note that if you're using in a browser context, you'll likely want to put all inference-related code in a web worker to avoid blocking the main thread.
See [this guide](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers.js/tutorials/next) and the other resources in the Transformers.js docs for an idea of how to set up your project.
import { HuggingFaceTransformersEmbeddings } from "@langchain/community/embeddings/hf_transformers";const model = new HuggingFaceTransformersEmbeddings({ model: "Xenova/all-MiniLM-L6-v2",});/* Embed queries */const res = await model.embedQuery( "What would be a good company name for a company that makes colorful socks?");console.log({ res });/* Embed documents */const documentRes = await model.embedDocuments(["Hello world", "Bye bye"]);console.log({ documentRes });
#### API Reference:
* [HuggingFaceTransformersEmbeddings](https://v02.api.js.langchain.com/classes/langchain_community_embeddings_hf_transformers.HuggingFaceTransformersEmbeddings.html) from `@langchain/community/embeddings/hf_transformers`

Integrating with LangServe
==========================
[LangServe](https://python.langchain.com/docs/langserve) is a Python framework that helps developers deploy LangChain [runnables and chains](/v0.1/docs/expression_language/) as REST APIs.
If you have a deployed LangServe route, you can use the [RemoteRunnable](https://api.js.langchain.com/classes/langchain_core_runnables_remote.RemoteRunnable.html) class to interact with it as if it were a local chain. This allows you to more easily call hosted LangServe instances from JavaScript environments (like in the browser on the frontend).
Setup[β](#setup "Direct link to Setup")
---------------------------------------
You'll need to install or package LangChain core into your frontend:
* npm
* Yarn
* pnpm
npm install @langchain/core
yarn add @langchain/core
pnpm add @langchain/core
If you are calling a LangServe endpoint from the browser, you'll need to make sure your server is returning CORS headers. You can use FastAPI's built-in middleware for that:
from fastapi.middleware.cors import CORSMiddleware# Set all CORS enabled originsapp.add_middleware( CORSMiddleware, allow_origins=["*"], allow_credentials=True, allow_methods=["*"], allow_headers=["*"], expose_headers=["*"],)
Usage[β](#usage "Direct link to Usage")
---------------------------------------
Then, you can use any of the [supported LCEL interface methods](/v0.1/docs/expression_language/interface/). Here's an example of how this looks:
import { RemoteRunnable } from "@langchain/core/runnables/remote";const remoteChain = new RemoteRunnable({ url: "https://your_hostname.com/path",});const result = await remoteChain.invoke({ param1: "param1", param2: "param2",});console.log(result);const stream = await remoteChain.stream({ param1: "param1", param2: "param2",});for await (const chunk of stream) { console.log(chunk);}
#### API Reference:
* [RemoteRunnable](https://api.js.langchain.com/classes/langchain_core_runnables_remote.RemoteRunnable.html) from `@langchain/core/runnables/remote`
[`streamEvents`](/v0.1/docs/expression_language/interface/) allows you to stream chain intermediate steps as events such as `on_llm_start`, and `on_chain_stream`. See the [table here](/v0.1/docs/expression_language/interface/#stream-events) for a full list of events you can handle. This method allows for a few extra options as well to only include or exclude certain named steps:
import { RemoteRunnable } from "@langchain/core/runnables/remote";const remoteChain = new RemoteRunnable({ url: "https://your_hostname.com/path",});const logStream = await remoteChain.streamEvents( { question: "What is a document loader?", chat_history: [], }, // LangChain runnable config properties { // Version is required for streamEvents since it's a beta API version: "v1", // Optional, chain specific config configurable: { llm: "openai_gpt_3_5_turbo", }, metadata: { conversation_id: "other_metadata", }, }, // Optional additional streamLog properties for filtering outputs { // includeNames: [], // includeTags: [], // includeTypes: [], // excludeNames: [], // excludeTags: [], // excludeTypes: [], });for await (const chunk of logStream) { console.log(chunk);}/* { event: 'on_chain_start', name: '/pirate-speak', run_id: undefined, tags: [], metadata: {}, data: { input: StringPromptValue { lc_serializable: true, lc_kwargs: [Object], lc_namespace: [Array], value: null } } } { event: 'on_prompt_start', name: 'ChatPromptTemplate', run_id: undefined, tags: [ 'seq:step:1' ], metadata: {}, data: { input: StringPromptValue { lc_serializable: true, lc_kwargs: [Object], lc_namespace: [Array], value: null } } } { event: 'on_prompt_end', name: 'ChatPromptTemplate', run_id: undefined, tags: [ 'seq:step:1' ], metadata: {}, data: { input: StringPromptValue { lc_serializable: true, lc_kwargs: [Object], lc_namespace: [Array], value: null }, output: ChatPromptValue { lc_serializable: true, lc_kwargs: [Object], lc_namespace: [Array], messages: [Array] } } } { event: 'on_chat_model_start', name: 'ChatOpenAI', run_id: undefined, tags: [ 'seq:step:2' ], metadata: {}, data: { input: ChatPromptValue { lc_serializable: true, lc_kwargs: [Object], lc_namespace: [Array], messages: [Array] } } } { event: 'on_chat_model_stream', name: 'ChatOpenAI', run_id: undefined, tags: [ 'seq:step:2' ], metadata: {}, data: { chunk: AIMessageChunk { lc_serializable: true, lc_kwargs: [Object], lc_namespace: [Array], content: '', name: undefined, additional_kwargs: {}, response_metadata: {} } } } { event: 'on_chain_stream', name: '/pirate-speak', run_id: undefined, tags: [], metadata: {}, data: { chunk: AIMessageChunk { lc_serializable: true, lc_kwargs: [Object], lc_namespace: [Array], content: '', name: undefined, additional_kwargs: {}, response_metadata: {} } } } { event: 'on_chat_model_stream', name: 'ChatOpenAI', run_id: undefined, tags: [ 'seq:step:2' ], metadata: {}, data: { chunk: AIMessageChunk { lc_serializable: true, lc_kwargs: [Object], lc_namespace: [Array], content: 'Arr', name: undefined, additional_kwargs: {}, response_metadata: {} } } } { event: 'on_chain_stream', name: '/pirate-speak', run_id: undefined, tags: [], metadata: {}, data: { chunk: AIMessageChunk { lc_serializable: true, lc_kwargs: [Object], lc_namespace: [Array], content: 'Arr', name: undefined, additional_kwargs: {}, response_metadata: {} } } } { event: 'on_chat_model_stream', name: 'ChatOpenAI', run_id: undefined, tags: [ 'seq:step:2' ], metadata: {}, data: { chunk: AIMessageChunk { lc_serializable: true, lc_kwargs: [Object], lc_namespace: [Array], content: 'r', name: undefined, additional_kwargs: {}, response_metadata: {} } } } { event: 'on_chain_stream', name: '/pirate-speak', run_id: undefined, tags: [], metadata: {}, data: { chunk: AIMessageChunk { lc_serializable: true, lc_kwargs: [Object], lc_namespace: [Array], content: 'r', name: undefined, additional_kwargs: {}, response_metadata: {} } } } { event: 'on_chat_model_stream', name: 'ChatOpenAI', run_id: undefined, tags: [ 'seq:step:2' ], metadata: {}, data: { chunk: AIMessageChunk { lc_serializable: true, lc_kwargs: [Object], lc_namespace: [Array], content: ' mate', name: undefined, additional_kwargs: {}, response_metadata: {} } } } ... { event: 'on_chat_model_end', name: 'ChatOpenAI', run_id: undefined, tags: [ 'seq:step:2' ], metadata: {}, data: { input: ChatPromptValue { lc_serializable: true, lc_kwargs: [Object], lc_namespace: [Array], messages: [Array] }, output: { generations: [Array], llm_output: null, run: null } } } { event: 'on_chain_end', name: '/pirate-speak', run_id: undefined, tags: [], metadata: {}, data: { output: AIMessageChunk { lc_serializable: true, lc_kwargs: [Object], lc_namespace: [Array], content: "Arrr matey, why be ye holdin' back on me?

### Configuration[β](#configuration "Direct link to Configuration")
You can also pass in options for headers and timeouts into the constructor. These will be used when making incoming requests:
import { RemoteRunnable } from "langchain/runnables/remote";const remoteChain = new RemoteRunnable({ url: "https://your_hostname.com/path", options: { timeout: 10000, headers: { Authorization: "Bearer YOUR_TOKEN", }, },});const result = await remoteChain.invoke({ param1: "param1", param2: "param2",});console.log(result);

Migration guide: 0.0 -> 0.1
===========================
If you're still using the pre `0.1` version of LangChain, but want to upgrade to the latest version, we've created a script that can handle almost every aspect of the migration for you.
At a high level, the changes from `0.0` to `0.1` are new packages and import path updates. We've done our best to keep all core code functionality the same, so migrating can be as painless as possible.
In simple terms, this script will scan your TypeScript codebase for any imports from `langchain/*`, and if it finds imports which have been moved in `0.1`, it'll automatically update the import paths for you.
The new packages it checks for are:
* `@langchain/core`
* `@langchain/community`
* `@langchain/openai`
* `@langchain/cohere`
* `@langchain/pinecone`
Some of these integration packages (not `core` or `community`) do have breaking changes. If you'd like to opt out of updating to those modules, you may pass in the `skipCheck` arg with a list of modules you'd like to ignore.
For example, `@langchain/cohere` bumps to the new Cohere SDK version. If you do not wish to upgrade, it will instead update your `cohere` imports to the `@langchain/community` package which still contains the previous version of the Cohere SDK.
The example below demonstrates how to run the migration script, checking all new packages.
### Setup[β](#setup "Direct link to Setup")
Install the new packages.
tip
See [this section for general instructions on installing integration packages](/v0.1/docs/get_started/installation/#installing-integration-packages).
Install the scripts package to import the migration script:
* npm
* Yarn
* pnpm
npm install @langchain/scripts
yarn add @langchain/scripts
pnpm add @langchain/scripts
Then, install any integration packages you'd like to use:
* npm
* Yarn
* pnpm
npm install @langchain/core @langchain/community @langchain/openai @langchain/cohere @langchain/pinecone
yarn add @langchain/core @langchain/community @langchain/openai @langchain/cohere @langchain/pinecone
pnpm add @langchain/core @langchain/community @langchain/openai @langchain/cohere @langchain/pinecone
Then, run the migration code as seen below.
import { updateEntrypointsFrom0_0_xTo0_1_x } from "@langchain/scripts/migrations";await updateEntrypointsFrom0_0_xTo0_1_x({ // Path to the local langchainjs repository localLangChainPath: "/Users/my-profile/langchainjs", // Path to the repository where the migration should be applied codePath: "/Users/my-profile/langchainjs-project",});

Defining custom tools
=====================
One option for creating a tool that runs custom code is to use a `DynamicTool`.
The `DynamicTool` and `DynamicStructuredTool` classes takes as input a name, a description, and a function. Importantly, the name and the description will be used by the language model to determine when to call this function and with what parameters, so make sure to set these to some values the language model can reason about!
The provided function is what will the agent will actually call. When an error occurs, the function should, when possible, return a string representing an error, rather than throwing an error. This allows the error to be passed to the LLM and the LLM can decide how to handle it. If an error is thrown, then execution of the agent will stop.
`DynamicStructuredTool`s allow you to specify more complex inputs as [Zod](https://zod.dev) schemas for the agent to populate. However, note that more complex schemas require better models and agents. See [this guide](/v0.1/docs/modules/agents/agent_types/) for a complete list of agent types.
See below for an example of defining and using `DynamicTool`s.

Chat Models
===========
ChatModels are a core component of LangChain.
LangChain does not serve its own ChatModels, but rather provides a standard interface for interacting with many different models. To be specific, this interface is one that takes as input a list of messages and returns a message.
There are lots of model providers (OpenAI, Cohere, Hugging Face, etc) - the `ChatModel` class is designed to provide a standard interface for all of them.

Chatbots
========
Overview[β](#overview "Direct link to Overview")
------------------------------------------------
Chatbots are one of the most popular use-cases for LLMs. The core features of chatbots are that they can have long-running, stateful conversations and can answer user questions using relevant information.
Architectures[β](#architectures "Direct link to Architectures")
---------------------------------------------------------------
Designing a chatbot involves considering various techniques with different benefits and tradeoffs depending on what sorts of questions you expect it to handle.
For example, chatbots commonly use [retrieval-augmented generation](/v0.1/docs/use_cases/question_answering/), or RAG, over private data to better answer domain-specific questions. You also might choose to route between multiple data sources to ensure it only uses the most topical context for final question answering, or choose to use a more specialized type of chat history or memory than just passing messages back and forth.
![Image description](/v0.1/assets/images/chat_use_case-eb8a4883931d726e9f23628a0d22e315.png)
Optimizations like this can make your chatbot more powerful, but add latency and complexity. The aim of this guide is to give you an overview of how to implement various features and help you tailor your chatbot to your particular use-case.

SQL
===
In this guide we'll go over the basic ways to create a Q&A chain and agent over a SQL database. These systems will allow us to ask a question about the data in a SQL database and get back a natural language answer. The main difference between the two is that our agent can query the database in a loop as many time as it needs to answer the question.
β οΈ Security note β οΈ[β](#οΈ-security-note-οΈ "Direct link to β οΈ Security note β οΈ")
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Building Q&A systems of SQL databases can require executing model-generated SQL queries. There are inherent risks in doing this. Make sure that your database connection permissions are always scoped as narrowly as possible for your chain/agent's needs. This will mitigate though not eliminate the risks of building a model-driven system. For more on general security best practices, see [here](/v0.1/docs/security/).
Architecture[β](#architecture "Direct link to Architecture")
------------------------------------------------------------
At a high-level, the steps of most SQL chain and agent are:
1. **Convert question to SQL query**: Model converts user input to a SQL query.
2. **Execute SQL query**: Execute the SQL query
3. **Answer the question**: Model responds to user input using the query results.

Deal with High Cardinality Categoricals
=======================================
You may want to do query analysis to create a filter on a categorical column. One of the difficulties here is that you usually need to specify the EXACT categorical value. The issue is you need to make sure the LLM generates that categorical value exactly. This can be done relatively easy with prompting when there are only a few values that are valid. When there are a high number of valid values then it becomes more difficult, as those values may not fit in the LLM context, or (if they do) there may be too many for the LLM to properly attend to.
In this notebook we take a look at how to approach this.
Setup[β](#setup "Direct link to Setup")

pnpm add @langchain/core @langchain/community zod chromadb @faker-js/faker
#### Set environment variables[β](#set-environment-variables "Direct link to Set environment variables")
# Optional, use LangSmith for best-in-class observabilityLANGSMITH_API_KEY=your-api-keyLANGCHAIN_TRACING_V2=true
#### Set up data[β](#set-up-data "Direct link to Set up data")
We will generate a bunch of fake names
import { faker } from "@faker-js/faker";const names = Array.from({ length: 10000 }, () => faker.person.fullName());
Letβs look at some of the names
names[0];
"Dale Kessler"
names[567];
"Mrs. Chelsea Bayer MD"
Query Analysis[β](#query-analysis "Direct link to Query Analysis")
------------------------------------------------------------------
We can now set up a baseline query analysis
import { z } from "zod";const searchSchema = z.object({ query: z.string(), author: z.string(),});

import { ChatMistralAI } from "@langchain/mistralai";const llm = new ChatMistralAI({ model: "mistral-large-latest", temperature: 0});
import { ChatPromptTemplate } from "@langchain/core/prompts";import { RunnablePassthrough, RunnableSequence,} from "@langchain/core/runnables";const system = `Generate a relevant search query for a library system`;const prompt = ChatPromptTemplate.fromMessages([ ["system", system], ["human", "{question}"],]);const llmWithTools = llm.withStructuredOutput(searchSchema, { name: "Search",});const queryAnalyzer = RunnableSequence.from([ { question: new RunnablePassthrough(), }, prompt, llmWithTools,]);
We can see that if we spell the name exactly correctly, it knows how to handle it
await queryAnalyzer.invoke("what are books about aliens by Jesse Knight");
{ query: "books about aliens", author: "Jesse Knight" }
The issue is that the values you want to filter on may NOT be spelled exactly correctly
await queryAnalyzer.invoke("what are books about aliens by jess knight");
{ query: "books about aliens", author: "Jess Knight" }
### Add in all values[β](#add-in-all-values "Direct link to Add in all values")
One way around this is to add ALL possible values to the prompt. That will generally guide the query in the right direction
const system = `Generate a relevant search query for a library system using the 'search' tool.The 'author' you return to the user MUST be one of the following authors:{authors}Do NOT hallucinate author name!`;const basePrompt = ChatPromptTemplate.fromMessages([ ["system", system], ["human", "{question}"],]);const prompt = await basePrompt.partial({ authors: names.join(", ") });
const queryAnalyzerAll = RunnableSequence.from([ { question: new RunnablePassthrough(), }, prompt, llmWithTools,]);
However⦠if the list of categoricals is long enough, it may error!
try { const res = await queryAnalyzerAll.invoke( "what are books about aliens by jess knight" );} catch (e) { console.error(e);}

const selectNames = async (question: string) => { const _docs = await vectorstore.similaritySearch(question, 10); const _names = _docs.map((d) => d.pageContent); return _names.join(", ");};
const createPrompt = RunnableSequence.from([ { question: new RunnablePassthrough(), authors: selectNames, }, basePrompt,]);
const queryAnalyzerSelect = createPrompt.pipe(llmWithTools);
await createPrompt.invoke("what are books by jess knight");
ChatPromptValue { lc_serializable: true, lc_kwargs: { messages: [ SystemMessage { lc_serializable: true, lc_kwargs: { content: "Generate a relevant search query for a library system using the 'search' tool.\n" + "\n" + "The 'author' you ret"... 259 more characters, additional_kwargs: {} }, lc_namespace: [ "langchain_core", "messages" ], content: "Generate a relevant search query for a library system using the 'search' tool.\n" + "\n" + "The 'author' you ret"... 259 more characters, name: undefined, additional_kwargs: {} }, HumanMessage { lc_serializable: true, lc_kwargs: { content: "what are books by jess knight", additional_kwargs: {} }, lc_namespace: [ "langchain_core", "messages" ], content: "what are books by jess knight", name: undefined, additional_kwargs: {} } ] }, lc_namespace: [ "langchain_core", "prompt_values" ], messages: [ SystemMessage { lc_serializable: true, lc_kwargs: { content: "Generate a relevant search query for a library system using the 'search' tool.\n" + "\n" + "The 'author' you ret"... 259 more characters, additional_kwargs: {} }, lc_namespace: [ "langchain_core", "messages" ], content: "Generate a relevant search query for a library system using the 'search' tool.\n" + "\n" + "The 'author' you ret"... 259 more characters, name: undefined, additional_kwargs: {} }, HumanMessage { lc_serializable: true, lc_kwargs: { content: "what are books by jess knight", additional_kwargs: {} }, lc_namespace: [ "langchain_core", "messages" ], content: "what are books by jess knight", name: undefined, additional_kwargs: {} } ]}

Extraction
==========
Overview[β](#overview "Direct link to Overview")
------------------------------------------------
Large Language Models (LLMs) are emerging as an extremely capable technology for powering information extraction applications.
Classical solutions to information extraction rely on a combination of people, (many) hand-crafted rules (e.g., regular expressions), and custom fine-tuned ML models.
Such systems tend to get complex over time and become progressively more expensive to maintain and more difficult to enhance.
LLMs can be adapted quickly for specific extraction tasks just by providing appropriate instructions to them and appropriate reference examples.
This guide will show you how to use LLMs for extraction applications!
Approaches[β](#approaches "Direct link to Approaches")
------------------------------------------------------
There are 3 broad approaches for information extraction using LLMs:
* **Tool/Function Calling** Mode: Some LLMs support a _tool or function calling_ mode. These LLMs can structure output according to a given **schema**. Generally, this approach is the easiest to work with and is expected to yield good results.
* **JSON Mode**: Some LLMs can be forced to output valid JSON. This is similar to **tool/function calling** approach, except that the schema is provided as part of the prompt. Generally, our intuition is that this performs worse than a **tool/function calling** approach, especially for complex schemas, but you should verify for your own use case!
* **Prompting Based**: LLMs that can follow instructions well can be instructed to generate text in a desired format. The generated text can be parsed downstream using existing [Output Parsers](/v0.1/docs/modules/model_io/output_parsers/) or using [custom parsers](/v0.1/docs/modules/model_io/output_parsers/custom/) into a structured format like JSON. This approach can be used with LLMs that **do not support** JSON mode or tool/function calling modes. This approach is more broadly applicable, though may yield worse results than models that have been fine-tuned for extraction or function calling.
Quickstart[β](#quickstart "Direct link to Quickstart")
------------------------------------------------------
Head to the [quickstart](/v0.1/docs/use_cases/extraction/quickstart/) to see how to extract information using LLMs using a basic end-to-end example.
The quickstart focuses on information extraction using the **tool/function calling** approach.

Query analysis
==============
In any question answering application we need to retrieve information based on a user question. The simplest way to do this involves passing the user question directly to a retriever. However, in many cases it can improve performance by βoptimizingβ the query in some way. This is typically done by an LLM. Specifically, this involves passing the raw question (or list of messages) into an LLM and returning one or more optimized queries, which typically contain a string and optionally other structured information.
![Query Analysis](/v0.1/assets/images/query_analysis-cf7fe2eec43fce1e2e8feb1a16413fab.png)
Background Information[β](#background-information "Direct link to Background Information")
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This guide assumes familiarity with the basic building blocks of a simple RAG application outlined in the [Q&A with RAG Quickstart](/v0.1/docs/use_cases/question_answering/quickstart/). Please read and understand that before diving in here.
Problems Solved[β](#problems-solved "Direct link to Problems Solved")
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Query analysis helps solves problems where the user question is not optimal to pass into the retriever. This can be the case when:
* The retriever supports searches and filters against specific fields of the data, and user input could be referring to any of these fields,
* The user input contains multiple distinct questions in it,
* To get the relevant information multiple queries are needed,
* Search quality is sensitive to phrasing,
* There are multiple retrievers that could be searched over, and the user input could be referring to any of them.
Note that different problems will require different solutions. In order to determine what query analysis technique you should use, you will want to understand exactly what the problem with your current retrieval system is. This is best done by looking at failure data points of your current application and identifying common themes. Only once you know what your problems are can you begin to solve them.
Quickstart[β](#quickstart "Direct link to Quickstart")
------------------------------------------------------
Head to the [quickstart](/v0.1/docs/use_cases/query_analysis/quickstart/) to see how to use query analysis in a basic end-to-end example. This will cover creating a simple index, showing a failure mode that occurs when passing a raw user question to that index, and then an example of how query analysis can help address that issue. There are MANY different query analysis techniques (see below) and this end-to-end example will not show all of them.
Techniques[β](#techniques "Direct link to Techniques")
------------------------------------------------------
There are multiple techniques we support for going from raw question or list of messages into a more optimized query. These include:
* [Query decomposition](/v0.1/docs/use_cases/query_analysis/techniques/decomposition/): If a user input contains multiple distinct questions, we can decompose the input into separate queries that will each be executed independently.
* [Query expansion](/v0.1/docs/use_cases/query_analysis/techniques/expansion/): If an index is sensitive to query phrasing, we can generate multiple paraphrased versions of the user question to increase our chances of retrieving a relevant result.
* [Hypothetical document embedding (HyDE)](/v0.1/docs/use_cases/query_analysis/techniques/hyde/): If weβre working with a similarity search-based index, like a vector store, then searching on raw questions may not work well because their embeddings may not be very similar to those of the relevant documents. Instead it might help to have the model generate a hypothetical relevant document, and then use that to perform similarity search.
* [Query routing](/v0.1/docs/use_cases/query_analysis/techniques/routing/): If we have multiple indexes and only a subset are useful for any given user input, we can route the input to only retrieve results from the relevant ones.
* [Step back prompting](/v0.1/docs/use_cases/query_analysis/techniques/step_back/): Sometimes search quality and model generations can be tripped up by the specifics of a question. One way to handle this is to first generate a more abstract, βstep backβ question and to query based on both the original and step back question.
* [Query structuring](/v0.1/docs/use_cases/query_analysis/techniques/structuring/): If our documents have multiple searchable/filterable attributes, we can infer from any raw user question which specific attributes should be searched/filtered over. For example, when a user inputs specific information about video publication date, that should become a filter on the `publishDate` attribute of each document.
How to[β](#how-to "Direct link to How to")
------------------------------------------
* [Add examples to prompt](/v0.1/docs/use_cases/query_analysis/how_to/few_shot/): As our query analysis becomes more complex, adding examples to the prompt can meaningfully improve performance.
* [Deal with High Cardinality Categoricals](/v0.1/docs/use_cases/query_analysis/how_to/high_cardinality/): Many structured queries you will create will involve categorical variables. When there are a lot of potential values there, it can be difficult to do this correctly.
* [Construct Filters](/v0.1/docs/use_cases/query_analysis/how_to/constructing_filters/): This guide covers how to go from a Pydantic model to a filters in the query language specific to the vectorstore you are working with
* [Handle Multiple Queries](/v0.1/docs/use_cases/query_analysis/how_to/multiple_queries/): Some query analysis techniques generate multiple queries. This guide handles how to pass them all to the retriever.
* [Handle No Queries](/v0.1/docs/use_cases/query_analysis/how_to/no_queries/): Some query analysis techniques may not generate a query at all. This guide handles how to gracefully handle those situations
* [Handle Multiple Retrievers](/v0.1/docs/use_cases/query_analysis/how_to/multiple_retrievers/): Some query analysis techniques involve routing between multiple retrievers. This guide covers how to handle that gracefully

Quickstart
==========
LangChain has a number of components designed to help build question-answering applications, and RAG applications more generally. To familiarize ourselves with these, weβll build a simple Q&A application over a text data source. Along the way weβll go over a typical Q&A architecture, discuss the relevant LangChain components, and highlight additional resources for more advanced Q&A techniques. Weβll also see how LangSmith can help us trace and understand our application. LangSmith will become increasingly helpful as our application grows in complexity.
Architecture[β](#architecture "Direct link to Architecture")
------------------------------------------------------------
Weβll create a typical RAG application as outlined in the [Q&A introduction](/v0.1/docs/use_cases/question_answering/), which has two main components:
**Indexing**: a pipeline for ingesting data from a source and indexing it. This usually happens offline.
**Retrieval and generation**: the actual RAG chain, which takes the user query at run time and retrieves the relevant data from the index, then passes that to the model.
The full sequence from raw data to answer will look like:
**Indexing** 1. **Load**: First we need to load our data. This is done with [DocumentLoaders](/v0.1/docs/modules/data_connection/document_loaders/). 2. **Split**: [Text splitters](/v0.1/docs/modules/data_connection/document_transformers/) break large `Documents` into smaller chunks. This is useful both for indexing data and for passing it in to a model, since large chunks are harder to search over and wonβt fit in a modelβs finite context window. 3. **Store**: We need somewhere to store and index our splits, so that they can later be searched over. This is often done using a [VectorStore](/v0.1/docs/modules/data_connection/vectorstores/) and [Embeddings](/v0.1/docs/modules/data_connection/text_embedding/) model.
**Retrieval and generation** 1. **Retrieve**: Given a user input, relevant splits are retrieved from storage using a [Retriever](/v0.1/docs/modules/data_connection/retrievers/). 2. **Generate**: A [ChatModel](/v0.1/docs/modules/model_io/chat/) / [LLM](/v0.1/docs/modules/model_io/llms/) produces an answer using a prompt that includes the question and the retrieved data
Setup[β](#setup "Direct link to Setup")
---------------------------------------
### Dependencies[β](#dependencies "Direct link to Dependencies")
Weβll use an OpenAI chat model and embeddings and a Memory vector store in this walkthrough, but everything shown here works with any [ChatModel](/v0.1/docs/modules/model_io/chat/) or [LLM](/v0.1/docs/modules/model_io/llms/), [Embeddings](/v0.1/docs/modules/data_connection/text_embedding/), and [VectorStore](/v0.1/docs/modules/data_connection/vectorstores/) or [Retriever](/v0.1/docs/modules/data_connection/retrievers/).
Weβll use the following packages:
npm install --save langchain @langchain/openai cheerio
We need to set environment variable `OPENAI_API_KEY`:
export OPENAI_API_KEY=YOUR_KEY
### LangSmith[β](#langsmith "Direct link to LangSmith")
Many of the applications you build with LangChain will contain multiple steps with multiple invocations of LLM calls. As these applications get more and more complex, it becomes crucial to be able to inspect what exactly is going on inside your chain or agent. The best way to do this is with [LangSmith](https://smith.langchain.com/).
Note that LangSmith is not needed, but it is helpful. If you do want to use LangSmith, after you sign up at the link above, make sure to set your environment variables to start logging traces:
export LANGCHAIN_TRACING_V2=trueexport LANGCHAIN_API_KEY=YOUR_KEY
Preview[β](#preview "Direct link to Preview")
---------------------------------------------
In this guide weβll build a QA app over the [LLM Powered Autonomous Agents](https://lilianweng.github.io/posts/2023-06-23-agent/) blog post by Lilian Weng, which allows us to ask questions about the contents of the post.
We can create a simple indexing pipeline and RAG chain to do this in only a few lines of code:
import "cheerio";import { CheerioWebBaseLoader } from "langchain/document_loaders/web/cheerio";import { RecursiveCharacterTextSplitter } from "langchain/text_splitter";import { MemoryVectorStore } from "langchain/vectorstores/memory";import { OpenAIEmbeddings, ChatOpenAI } from "@langchain/openai";import { pull } from "langchain/hub";import { ChatPromptTemplate } from "@langchain/core/prompts";import { StringOutputParser } from "@langchain/core/output_parsers";
import { createStuffDocumentsChain } from "langchain/chains/combine_documents";const loader = new CheerioWebBaseLoader( "https://lilianweng.github.io/posts/2023-06-23-agent/");const docs = await loader.load();const textSplitter = new RecursiveCharacterTextSplitter({ chunkSize: 1000, chunkOverlap: 200,});const splits = await textSplitter.splitDocuments(docs);const vectorStore = await MemoryVectorStore.fromDocuments( splits, new OpenAIEmbeddings());// Retrieve and generate using the relevant snippets of the blog.const retriever = vectorStore.asRetriever();const prompt = await pull<ChatPromptTemplate>("rlm/rag-prompt");const llm = new ChatOpenAI({ model: "gpt-3.5-turbo", temperature: 0 });const ragChain = await createStuffDocumentsChain({ llm, prompt, outputParser: new StringOutputParser(),});const retrievedDocs = await retriever.getRelevantDocuments( "what is task decomposition");
await ragChain.invoke({ question: "What is task decomposition?", context: retrievedDocs,});
"Task decomposition is a technique used to break down complex tasks into smaller and simpler steps. I"... 259 more characters
Checkout [this LangSmith trace](https://smith.langchain.com/public/54cffec3-5c26-477d-b56d-ebb66a254c8e/r) of the chain above.
You can also construct the RAG chain above in a more declarative way using a `RunnableSequence`. `createStuffDocumentsChain` is basically a wrapper around `RunnableSequence`, so for more complex chains and customizability, you can use `RunnableSequence` directly.
import { formatDocumentsAsString } from "langchain/util/document";import { RunnableSequence, RunnablePassthrough,} from "@langchain/core/runnables";const declarativeRagChain = RunnableSequence.from([ { context: retriever.pipe(formatDocumentsAsString), question: new RunnablePassthrough(), }, prompt, llm, new StringOutputParser(),]);
await declarativeRagChain.invoke("What is task decomposition?");
"Task decomposition is a technique used to break down complex tasks into smaller and simpler steps. I"... 208 more characters

Detailed walkthrough[β](#detailed-walkthrough "Direct link to Detailed walkthrough")
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Letβs go through the above code step-by-step to really understand whatβs going on.
1\. Indexing: Load[β](#indexing-load "Direct link to 1. Indexing: Load")
------------------------------------------------------------------------
We need to first load the blog post contents. We can use [DocumentLoaders](/v0.1/docs/modules/data_connection/document_loaders/) for this, which are objects that load in data from a source and return a list of [Documents](https://api.js.langchain.com/classes/langchain_core_documents.Document.html). A Document is an object with some pageContent (`string`) and metadata (`Record<string, any>`).

Building agents with LLM (large language model) as its core controller is a cool concept. Several proof-of-concepts demos, such as AutoGPT, GPT-Engineer and BabyAGI, serve as inspiring examples. The potentiality of LLM extends beyond generating well-written copies, stories, essays and programs; it can be framed as a powerful general problem solver.In a LLM-powered autonomous agent system, LLM functions as the agentβs brain, complemented by several key components:A complicated task usually involves many steps. An agent needs to know what they are and plan ahead.Chain of thought (CoT; Wei et al. 2022) has become a standard prompting technique for enhancing model performance on complex tasks. The model is instructed to βthink step by stepβ to utilize more test-time computation to decompose hard tasks into smaller and simpler steps. CoT transforms big tasks into multiple manageable tasks and shed lights into an interpretation of the modelβs thinking process.Tree of Thoughts (Yao et al. 2023) extends CoT by exploring multiple reasoning possibilities at each step. It first decomposes the problem into multiple thought steps and generates multiple thoughts per step, creating a tree structure. The search process can be BFS (breadth-first search) or DFS (depth-first search) with each state evaluated by a classifier (via a prompt) or majority vote.Task decomposition can be done (1) by LLM with simple prompting like "Steps for XYZ.\n1.", "What are the subgoals for achieving XYZ?", (2) by using task-specific instructions; e.g. "Write a story outline." for writing a novel, or (3) with human inputs.Another quite distinct approach, LLM+P (Liu et al. 2023), involves relying on an external classical planner to do long-horizon planning. This approach utilizes the Planning Domain Definition Language (PDDL) as an intermediate interface to describe the planning problem. In this process, LLM (1) translates the problem into βProblem PDDLβ, then (2) requests a classical planner to generate a PDDL plan based on an existing βDomain PDDLβ, and finally (3) translates the PDDL plan back into natural language. Essentially, the planning step is outsourced to an external tool, assuming the availability of domain-specific PDDL and a suitable planner which is common in certain robotic setups but not in many other domains.Self-reflection is a vital aspect that allows autonomous agents to improve iteratively by refining past action decisions and correcting previous mistakes. It plays a crucial role in real-world tasks where trial and error are inevitable.ReAct (Yao et al. 2023) integrates reasoning and acting within LLM by extending the action space to be a combination of task-specific discrete actions and the language space. The former enables LLM to interact with the environment (e.g. use Wikipedia search API), while the latter prompting LLM to generate reasoning traces in natural language.The ReAct prompt template incorporates explicit steps for LLM to think, roughly formatted as:In both experiments on knowledge-intensive tasks and decision-making tasks, ReAct works better than the Act-only baseline where Thought: β¦ step is removed.Reflexion (Shinn & Labash 2023) is a framework to equips agents with dynamic memory and self-reflection capabilities to improve reasoning skills. Reflexion has a standard RL setup, in which the reward model provides a simple binary reward and the action space follows the setup in ReAct where the task-specific action space is augmented with language to enable complex reasoning steps. After each action $a_t$, the agent computes a heuristic $h_t$ and optionally may decide to reset the environment to start a new trial depending on the self-reflection results.The heuristic function determines when the trajectory is inefficient or contains hallucination and should be stopped. Inefficient planning refers to trajectories that take too long without success. Hallucination is defined as encountering a sequence of consecutive identical actions that lead to the same observation in the environment.Self-reflection is created by showing two-shot examples to LLM and each example is a pair of (failed trajectory, ideal reflection for guiding future changes in the plan). Then reflections are added into the agentβs working memory, up to three, to be used as context for querying LLM.Chain of Hindsight (CoH; Liu et al. 2023) encourages the model to improve on its own outputs by explicitly presenting it with a sequence of past outputs, each annotated with feedback. Human feedback data is a collection of $D_h = \{(x, y_i , r_i , z_i)\}_{i=1}^n$, where $x$ is the prompt, each $y_i$ is a model completion, $r_i$ is the human rating of $y_i$, and $z_i$ is the corresponding human-provided hindsight feedback. Assume the feedback tuples are ranked by reward, $r_n \geq r_{n-1} \geq \dots \geq r_1$ The process is supervised fine-tuning where the data is a sequence in the form of $\tau_h = (x, z_i, y_i, z_j, y_j, \dots, z_n, y_n)$, where $\leq i \leq j \leq n$. The model is finetuned to only predict $y_n$ where conditioned on the sequence prefix, such that the model can self-reflect to produce better output based on the feedback sequence. The model can optionally receive multiple rounds of instructions with human annotators at test time.To avoid overfitting, CoH adds a regularization term to maximize the log-likelihood of the pre-training dataset. To avoid shortcutting and copying (because there are many common words in feedback sequences), they randomly mask 0% - 5% of past tokens during training.The training dataset in their experiments is a combination of WebGPT comparisons, summarization from human feedback and human preference dataset.The idea of CoH is to present a history of sequentially improved outputs in context and train the model to take on the trend to produce better outputs. Algorithm Distillation (AD; Laskin et al. 2023) applies the same idea to cross-episode trajectories in reinforcement learning tasks, where an algorithm is encapsulated in a long history-conditioned policy. Considering that an agent interacts with the environment many times and in each episode the agent gets a little better, AD concatenates this learning history and feeds that into the model. Hence we should expect the next predicted action to lead to better performance than previous trials. The goal is to learn the process of RL instead of training a task-specific policy itself.The paper hypothesizes that any algorithm that generates a set of learning histories can be distilled into a neural network by performing behavioral cloning over actions. The history data is generated by a set of source policies, each trained for a specific task. At the training stage, during each RL run, a random task is sampled and a subsequence of multi-episode history is used for training, such that the learned policy is task-agnostic.In reality, the model has limited context window length, so episodes should be short enough to construct multi-episode history. Multi-episodic contexts of 2-4 episodes are necessary to learn a near-optimal in-context RL algorithm. The emergence of in-context RL requires long enough context.In comparison with three baselines, including ED (expert distillation, behavior cloning with expert trajectories instead of learning history), source policy (used for generating trajectories for distillation by UCB), RL^2 (Duan et al. 2017; used as upper bound since it needs online RL), AD demonstrates in-context RL with performance getting close to RL^2 despite only using offline RL and learns much faster than other baselines. When conditioned on partial training history of the source policy, AD also improves much faster than ED baseline.(Big thank you to ChatGPT for helping me draft this section. Iβve learned a lot about the human brain and data structure for fast MIPS in my conversations with ChatGPT.)Memory can be defined as the processes used to acquire, store, retain, and later retrieve information. There are several types of memory in human brains.Sensory Memory: This is the earliest stage of memory, providing the ability to retain impressions of sensory information (visual, auditory, etc) after the original stimuli have ended. Sensory memory typically only lasts for up to a few seconds. Subcategories include iconic memory (visual), echoic memory (auditory), and haptic memory (touch).Short-Term Memory (STM) or Working Memory: It stores information that we are currently aware of and needed to carry out complex cognitive tasks such as learning and reasoning. Short-term memory is believed to have the capacity of about 7 items (Miller 1956) and lasts for 20-30 seconds.Long-Term Memory (LTM): Long-term memory can store information for a remarkably long time, ranging from a few days to decades, with an essentially unlimited storage capacity. There are two subtypes of LTM:We can roughly consider the following mappings:The external memory can alleviate the restriction of finite attention span. A standard practice is to save the embedding representation of information into a vector store database that can support fast maximum inner-product search (MIPS). To optimize the retrieval speed, the common choice is the approximate nearest neighbors (ANN)β algorithm to return approximately top k nearest neighbors to trade off a little accuracy lost for a huge speedup.A couple common choices of ANN algorithms for fast MIPS:Check more MIPS algorithms and performance comparison in ann-benchmarks.com.Tool use is a remarkable and distinguishing characteristic of human beings. We create, modify and utilize external objects to do things that go beyond our physical and cognitive limits. Equipping LLMs with external tools can significantly extend the model capabilities.MRKL (Karpas et al. 2022), short for βModular Reasoning, Knowledge and Languageβ, is a neuro-symbolic architecture for autonomous agents. A MRKL system is proposed to contain a collection of βexpertβ modules and the general-purpose LLM works as a router to route inquiries to the best suitable expert module. These modules can be neural (e.g. deep learning models) or symbolic (e.g. math calculator, currency converter, weather API).They did an experiment on fine-tuning LLM to call a calculator, using arithmetic as a test case. Their experiments showed that it was harder to solve verbal math problems than explicitly stated math problems because LLMs (7B Jurassic1-large model) failed to extract the right arguments for the basic arithmetic reliably. The results highlight when the external symbolic tools can work reliably, knowing when to and how to use the tools are crucial, determined by the LLM capability.Both TALM (Tool Augmented Language Models; Parisi et al. 2022) and Toolformer (Schick et al. 2023) fine-tune a LM to learn to use external tool APIs. The dataset is expanded based on whether a newly added API call annotation can improve the quality of model outputs. See more details in the βExternal APIsβ section of Prompt Engineering.ChatGPT Plugins and OpenAI API function calling are good examples of LLMs augmented with tool use capability working in practice. The collection of tool APIs can be provided by other developers (as in Plugins) or self-defined (as in function calls).HuggingGPT (Shen et al. 2023) is a framework to use ChatGPT as the task planner to select models available in HuggingFace platform according to the model descriptions and summarize the response based on the execution results.The system comprises of 4 stages:(1) Task planning: LLM works as the brain and parses the user requests into multiple tasks. There are four attributes associated with each task: task type, ID, dependencies, and arguments. They use few-shot examples to guide LLM to do task parsing and planning.Instruction:(2) Model selection: LLM distributes the tasks to expert models, where the request is framed as a multiple-choice question. LLM is presented with a list of models to choose from. Due to the limited context length, task type based filtration is needed.Instruction:(3) Task execution: Expert models execute on the specific tasks and log results.Instruction:(4) Response generation: LLM receives the execution results and provides summarized results to users.To put HuggingGPT into real world usage, a couple challenges need to solve: (1) Efficiency improvement is needed as both LLM inference rounds and interactions with other models slow down the process; (2) It relies on a long context window to communicate over complicated task content; (3) Stability improvement of LLM outputs and external model services.API-Bank (Li et al. 2023) is a benchmark for evaluating the performance of tool-augmented LLMs. It contains 53 commonly used API tools, a complete tool-augmented LLM workflow, and 264 annotated dialogues that involve 568 API calls. The selection of APIs is quite diverse, including search engines, calculator, calendar queries, smart home control, schedule management, health data management, account authentication workflow and more. Because there are a large number of APIs, LLM first has access to API search engine to find the right API to call and then uses the corresponding documentation to make a call.In the API-Bank workflow, LLMs need to make a couple of decisions and at each step we can evaluate how accurate that decision is. Decisions include:This benchmark evaluates the agentβs tool use capabilities at three levels:ChemCrow (Bran et al. 2023) is a domain-specific example in which LLM is augmented with 13 expert-designed tools to accomplish tasks across organic synthesis, drug discovery, and materials design. The workflow, implemented in LangChain, reflects what was previously described in the ReAct and MRKLs and combines CoT reasoning with tools relevant to the tasks:One interesting observation is that while the LLM-based evaluation concluded that GPT-4 and ChemCrow perform nearly equivalently, human evaluations with experts oriented towards the completion and chemical correctness of the solutions showed that ChemCrow outperforms GPT-4 by a large margin. This indicates a potential problem with using LLM to evaluate its own performance on domains that requires deep expertise. The lack of expertise may cause LLMs not knowing its flaws and thus cannot well judge the correctness of task results.Boiko et al. (2023) also looked into LLM-empowered agents for scientific discovery, to handle autonomous design, planning, and performance of complex scientific experiments. This agent can use tools to browse the Internet, read documentation, execute code, call robotics experimentation APIs and leverage other LLMs.For example, when requested to "develop a novel anticancer drug", the model came up with the following reasoning steps:They also discussed the risks, especially with illicit drugs and bioweapons. They developed a test set containing a list of known chemical weapon agents and asked the agent to synthesize them. 4 out of 11 requests (36%) were accepted to obtain a synthesis solution and the agent attempted to consult documentation to execute the procedure. 7 out of 11 were rejected and among these 7 rejected cases, 5 happened after a Web search while 2 were rejected based on prompt only.Generative Agents (Park, et al. 2023) is super fun experiment where 25 virtual characters, each controlled by a LLM-powered agent, are living and interacting in a sandbox environment, inspired by The Sims. Generative agents create believable simulacra of human behavior for interactive applications.The design of generative agents combines LLM with memory, planning and reflection mechanisms to enable agents to behave conditioned on past experience, as well as to interact with other agents.This fun simulation results in emergent social behavior, such as information diffusion, relationship memory (e.g. two agents continuing the conversation topic) and coordination of social events (e.g. host a party and invite many others).AutoGPT has drawn a lot of attention into the possibility of setting up autonomous agents with LLM as the main controller. It has quite a lot of reliability issues given the natural language interface, but nevertheless a cool proof-of-concept demo. A lot of code in AutoGPT is about format parsing.Here is the system message used by AutoGPT, where {{...}} are user inputs:GPT-Engineer is another project to create a whole repository of code given a task specified in natural language. The GPT-Engineer is instructed to think over a list of smaller components to build and ask for user input to clarify questions as needed.Here are a sample conversation for task clarification sent to OpenAI ChatCompletion endpoint used by GPT-Engineer. The user inputs are wrapped in {{user input text}}.Then after these clarification, the agent moved into the code writing mode with a different system message.System message:Think step by step and reason yourself to the right decisions to make sure we get it right.You will first lay out the names of the core classes, functions, methods that will be necessary, as well as a quick comment on their purpose.Then you will output the content of each file including ALL code.Each file must strictly follow a markdown code block format, where the following tokens must be replaced such thatFILENAME is the lowercase file name including the file extension,LANG is the markup code block language for the codeβs language, and CODE is the code:FILENAMEYou will start with the βentrypointβ file, then go to the ones that are imported by that file, and so on.Please note that the code should be fully functional. No placeholders.Follow a language and framework appropriate best practice file naming convention.Make sure that files contain all imports, types etc. Make sure that code in different files are compatible with each other.Ensure to implement all code, if you are unsure, write a plausible implementation.Include module dependency or package manager dependency definition file.Before you finish, double check that all parts of the architecture is present in the files.Useful to know:You almost always put different classes in different files.For Python, you always create an appropriate requirements.txt file.For NodeJS, you always create an appropriate package.json file.You always add a comment briefly describing the purpose of the function definition.You try to add comments explaining very complex bits of logic.You always follow the best practices for the requested languages in terms of describing the code written as a definedpackage/project.Python toolbelt preferences:Conversatin samples:After going through key ideas and demos of building LLM-centered agents, I start to see a couple common limitations:Finite context length: The restricted context capacity limits the inclusion of historical information, detailed instructions, API call context, and responses. The design of the system has to work with this limited communication bandwidth, while mechanisms like self-reflection to learn from past mistakes would benefit a lot from long or infinite context windows. Although vector stores and retrieval can provide access to a larger knowledge pool, their representation power is not as powerful as full attention.Challenges in long-term planning and task decomposition: Planning over a lengthy history and effectively exploring the solution space remain challenging. LLMs struggle to adjust plans when faced with unexpected errors, making them less robust compared to humans who learn from trial and error.Reliability of natural language interface: Current agent system relies on natural language as an interface between LLMs and external components such as memory and tools. However, the reliability of model outputs is questionable, as LLMs may make formatting errors and occasionally exhibit rebellious behavior (e.g. refuse to follow an instruction). Consequently, much of the agent demo code focuses on parsing model output.Cited as:Weng, Lilian. (Jun 2023). LLM-powered Autonomous Agents".

2\. Indexing: Split[β](#indexing-split "Direct link to 2. Indexing: Split")
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Our loaded document is over 42k characters long. This is too long to fit in the context window of many models. Even for those models that could fit the full post in their context window, models can struggle to find information in very long inputs.
To handle this weβll split the `Document` into chunks for embedding and vector storage. This should help us retrieve only the most relevant bits of the blog post at run time.
In this case weβll split our documents into chunks of 1000 characters with 200 characters of overlap between chunks. The overlap helps mitigate the possibility of separating a statement from important context related to it. We use the [RecursiveCharacterTextSplitter](/v0.1/docs/modules/data_connection/document_transformers/recursive_text_splitter/), which will recursively split the document using common separators like new lines until each chunk is the appropriate size. This is the recommended text splitter for generic text use cases.
const textSplitter = new RecursiveCharacterTextSplitter({ chunkSize: 1000, chunkOverlap: 200,});const allSplits = await textSplitter.splitDocuments(docs);

3\. Indexing: Store[β](#indexing-store "Direct link to 3. Indexing: Store")
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Now we need to index our 28 text chunks so that we can search over them at runtime. The most common way to do this is to embed the contents of each document split and insert these embeddings into a vector database (or vector store). When we want to search over our splits, we take a text search query, embed it, and perform some sort of βsimilarityβ search to identify the stored splits with the most similar embeddings to our query embedding. The simplest similarity measure is cosine similarity β we measure the cosine of the angle between each pair of embeddings (which are high dimensional vectors).
We can embed and store all of our document splits in a single command using the [Memory](/v0.1/docs/integrations/vectorstores/memory/) vector store and [OpenAIEmbeddings](/v0.1/docs/integrations/text_embedding/openai/) model.

This completes the **Indexing** portion of the pipeline. At this point we have a query-able vector store containing the chunked contents of our blog post. Given a user question, we should ideally be able to return the snippets of the blog post that answer the question.
4\. Retrieval and Generation: Retrieve[β](#retrieval-and-generation-retrieve "Direct link to 4. Retrieval and Generation: Retrieve")
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Now letβs write the actual application logic. We want to create a simple application that takes a user question, searches for documents relevant to that question, passes the retrieved documents and initial question to a model, and returns an answer.
First we need to define our logic for searching over documents. LangChain defines a [Retriever](/v0.1/docs/modules/data_connection/retrievers/) interface which wraps an index that can return relevant `Document`s given a string query.
The most common type of Retriever is the [VectorStoreRetriever](https://api.js.langchain.com/classes/langchain_core_vectorstores.VectorStoreRetriever.html), which uses the similarity search capabilities of a vector store to facilitate retrieval. Any `VectorStore` can easily be turned into a `Retriever` with `VectorStore.asRetriever()`:
const retriever = vectorStore.asRetriever({ k: 6, searchType: "similarity" });
const retrievedDocs = await retriever.invoke( "What are the approaches to task decomposition?");
console.log(retrievedDocs.length);

5\. Retrieval and Generation: Generate[β](#retrieval-and-generation-generate "Direct link to 5. Retrieval and Generation: Generate")
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Letβs put it all together into a chain that takes a question, retrieves relevant documents, constructs a prompt, passes that to a model, and parses the output.
Weβll use the gpt-3.5-turbo OpenAI chat model, but any LangChain `LLM` or `ChatModel` could be substituted in.
import { ChatOpenAI } from "@langchain/openai";const llm = new ChatOpenAI({ model: "gpt-3.5-turbo", temperature: 0 });
Weβll use a prompt for RAG that is checked into the LangChain prompt hub ([here](https://smith.langchain.com/hub/rlm/rag-prompt?organizationId=9213bdc8-a184-442b-901a-cd86ebf8ca6f)).
import { ChatPromptTemplate } from "@langchain/core/prompts";import { pull } from "langchain/hub";const prompt = await pull<ChatPromptTemplate>("rlm/rag-prompt");
const exampleMessages = await prompt.invoke({ context: "filler context", question: "filler question",});exampleMessages;

console.log(exampleMessages.messages[0].content);
You are an assistant for question-answering tasks. Use the following pieces of retrieved context to answer the question. If you don't know the answer, just say that you don't know. Use three sentences maximum and keep the answer concise.Question: filler questionContext: filler contextAnswer:
Weβll use the [LCEL Runnable](/v0.1/docs/expression_language/) protocol to define the chain, allowing us to - pipe together components and functions in a transparent way - automatically trace our chain in LangSmith - get streaming, async, and batched calling out of the box
import { StringOutputParser } from "@langchain/core/output_parsers";import { RunnablePassthrough, RunnableSequence,} from "@langchain/core/runnables";import { formatDocumentsAsString } from "langchain/util/document";const ragChain = RunnableSequence.from([ { context: retriever.pipe(formatDocumentsAsString), question: new RunnablePassthrough(), }, prompt, llm, new StringOutputParser(),]);
for await (const chunk of await ragChain.stream( "What is task decomposition?")) { console.log(chunk);}
Task decomposition is the process of breaking down a complex task into smaller and simpler steps. It allows for easier management and interpretation of the model's thinking process. Different approaches, such as Chain of Thought (CoT) and Tree of Thoughts, can be used to decompose tasks and explore multiple reasoning possibilities at each step.

Per-User Retrieval
==================
When building a retrieval app, you often have to build it with multiple users in mind. This means that you may be storing data not just for one user, but for many different users, and they should not be able to see eachotherβs data. This means that you need to be able to configure your retrieval chain to only retrieve certain information. This generally involves two steps.
**Step 1: Make sure the retriever you are using supports multiple users**
At the moment, there is no unified flag or filter for this in LangChain. Rather, each vectorstore and retriever may have their own, and may be called different things (namespaces, multi-tenancy, etc). For vectorstores, this is generally exposed as a keyword argument that is passed in during `similaritySearch`. By reading the documentation or source code, figure out whether the retriever you are using supports multiple users, and, if so, how to use it.
Note: adding documentation and/or support for multiple users for retrievers that do not support it (or document it) is a GREAT way to contribute to LangChain
**Step 2: Add that parameter as a configurable field for the chain**
The LangChain `config` object is passed through to every Runnable. Here you can add any fields youβd like to the `configurable` object. Later, inside the chain we can extract these fields.
**Step 3: Call the chain with that configurable field**
Now, at runtime you can call this chain with configurable field.
Code Example[β](#code-example "Direct link to Code Example")
------------------------------------------------------------
Letβs see a concrete example of what this looks like in code. We will use Pinecone for this example.
Setup[β](#setup "Direct link to Setup")
---------------------------------------
### Install dependencies[β](#install-dependencies "Direct link to Install dependencies")
tip
See [this section for general instructions on installing integration packages](/v0.1/docs/get_started/installation/#installing-integration-packages).
* npm
* yarn
* pnpm
npm i @langchain/pinecone @langchain/openai @pinecone-database/pinecone @langchain/core
yarn add @langchain/pinecone @langchain/openai @pinecone-database/pinecone @langchain/core
pnpm add @langchain/pinecone @langchain/openai @pinecone-database/pinecone @langchain/core
### Set environment variables[β](#set-environment-variables "Direct link to Set environment variables")
Weβll use OpenAI and Pinecone in this example:
OPENAI_API_KEY=your-api-keyPINECONE_API_KEY=your-api-keyPINECONE_INDEX=your-index-name# Optional, use LangSmith for best-in-class observabilityLANGSMITH_API_KEY=your-api-keyLANGCHAIN_TRACING_V2=true
import { OpenAIEmbeddings } from "@langchain/openai";import { PineconeStore } from "@langchain/pinecone";import { Pinecone } from "@pinecone-database/pinecone";import { Document } from "@langchain/core/documents";
const embeddings = new OpenAIEmbeddings();const pinecone = new Pinecone();const pineconeIndex = pinecone.Index(Deno.env.get("PINECONE_INDEX"));const vectorStore = await PineconeStore.fromExistingIndex( new OpenAIEmbeddings(), { pineconeIndex });
await vectorStore.addDocuments( [new Document({ pageContent: "i worked at kensho" })], { namespace: "harrison" });
[ "39d90a6d-7e97-45cc-a9dc-ebefa47220fc" ]
await vectorStore.addDocuments( [new Document({ pageContent: "i worked at facebook" })], { namespace: "ankush" });
[ "75f94962-9135-4385-b71c-36d8345e02aa" ]
The pinecone kwarg for `namespace` can be used to separate documents
// This will only get documents for Ankushawait vectorStore .asRetriever({ filter: { namespace: "ankush", }, }) .getRelevantDocuments("where did i work?");
[ Document { pageContent: "i worked at facebook", metadata: {} } ]
// This will only get documents for Harrisonawait vectorStore .asRetriever({ filter: { namespace: "harrison", }, }) .getRelevantDocuments("where did i work?");
[ Document { pageContent: "i worked at kensho", metadata: {} } ]
We can now create the chain that we will use to do question-answering over
import { StringOutputParser } from "@langchain/core/output_parsers";import { ChatPromptTemplate } from "@langchain/core/prompts";import { RunnableBinding, RunnableLambda, RunnablePassthrough,} from "@langchain/core/runnables";import { ChatOpenAI, OpenAIEmbeddings } from "@langchain/openai";
This is basic question-answering chain set up.
const template = `Answer the question based only on the following context:{context}Question: {question}`;const prompt = ChatPromptTemplate.fromTemplate(template);const model = new ChatOpenAI({ model: "gpt-3.5-turbo-0125", temperature: 0,});const retriever = vectorStore.asRetriever();
We can now create the chain using our configurable retriever. It is configurable because we can define any object which will be passed to the chain. From there, we extract the configurable object and pass it to the vectorstore.
import { RunnableSequence } from "@langchain/core/runnables";const chain = RunnableSequence.from([ { context: async (input, config) => { if (!config || !("configurable" in config)) { throw new Error("No config"); } const { configurable } = config; return JSON.stringify( await vectorStore.asRetriever(configurable).getRelevantDocuments(input) ); }, question: new RunnablePassthrough(), }, prompt, model, new StringOutputParser(),]);
We can now invoke the chain with configurable options. `search_kwargs` is the id of the configurable field. The value is the search kwargs to use for Pinecone
await chain.invoke("where did the user work?", { configurable: { filter: { namespace: "harrison" } },});
"The user worked at Kensho."
await chain.invoke("where did the user work?", { configurable: { filter: { namespace: "ankush" } },});
"The user worked at Facebook."
For more vectorstore implementations for multi-user, please refer to specific pages, such as [Milvus](/v0.1/docs/integrations/vectorstores/milvus/).

Add chat history
================
In many Q&A applications we want to allow the user to have a back-and-forth conversation, meaning the application needs some sort of βmemoryβ of past questions and answers, and some logic for incorporating those into its current thinking.
In this guide we focus on **adding logic for incorporating historical messages, and NOT on chat history management.** Chat history management is [covered here](/v0.1/docs/expression_language/how_to/message_history/).
Weβll work off of the Q&A app we built over the [LLM Powered Autonomous Agents](https://lilianweng.github.io/posts/2023-06-23-agent/) blog post by Lilian Weng in the [Quickstart](/v0.1/docs/use_cases/question_answering/quickstart/). Weβll need to update two things about our existing app:
1. **Prompt**: Update our prompt to support historical messages as an input.
2. **Contextualizing questions**: Add a sub-chain that takes the latest user question and reformulates it in the context of the chat history. This is needed in case the latest question references some context from past messages. For example, if a user asks a follow-up question like βCan you elaborate on the second point?β, this cannot be understood without the context of the previous message. Therefore we canβt effectively perform retrieval with a question like this.
Setup[β](#setup "Direct link to Setup")
---------------------------------------
### Dependencies[β](#dependencies "Direct link to Dependencies")
Weβll use an OpenAI chat model and embeddings and a Memory vector store in this walkthrough, but everything shown here works with any [ChatModel](/v0.1/docs/modules/model_io/chat/) or [LLM](/v0.1/docs/modules/model_io/llms/), [Embeddings](/v0.1/docs/modules/data_connection/text_embedding/), and [VectorStore](/v0.1/docs/modules/data_connection/vectorstores/) or [Retriever](/v0.1/docs/modules/data_connection/retrievers/).
Weβll use the following packages:
npm install --save langchain @langchain/openai cheerio
We need to set environment variable `OPENAI_API_KEY`:
export OPENAI_API_KEY=YOUR_KEY
### LangSmith[β](#langsmith "Direct link to LangSmith")
Many of the applications you build with LangChain will contain multiple steps with multiple invocations of LLM calls. As these applications get more and more complex, it becomes crucial to be able to inspect what exactly is going on inside your chain or agent. The best way to do this is with [LangSmith](https://smith.langchain.com/).
Note that LangSmith is not needed, but it is helpful. If you do want to use LangSmith, after you sign up at the link above, make sure to set your environment variables to start logging traces:
export LANGCHAIN_TRACING_V2=trueexport LANGCHAIN_API_KEY=YOUR_KEY
### Initial setup[β](#initial-setup "Direct link to Initial setup")
import "cheerio";import { CheerioWebBaseLoader } from "langchain/document_loaders/web/cheerio";import { RecursiveCharacterTextSplitter } from "langchain/text_splitter";import { MemoryVectorStore } from "langchain/vectorstores/memory";import { OpenAIEmbeddings, ChatOpenAI } from "@langchain/openai";import { pull } from "langchain/hub";import { ChatPromptTemplate } from "@langchain/core/prompts";import { RunnableSequence, RunnablePassthrough,} from "@langchain/core/runnables";import { StringOutputParser } from "@langchain/core/output_parsers";
import { createStuffDocumentsChain } from "langchain/chains/combine_documents";const loader = new CheerioWebBaseLoader( "https://lilianweng.github.io/posts/2023-06-23-agent/");const docs = await loader.load();const textSplitter = new RecursiveCharacterTextSplitter({ chunkSize: 1000, chunkOverlap: 200,});const splits = await textSplitter.splitDocuments(docs);const vectorStore = await MemoryVectorStore.fromDocuments( splits, new OpenAIEmbeddings());// Retrieve and generate using the relevant snippets of the blog.const retriever = vectorStore.asRetriever();const prompt = await pull<ChatPromptTemplate>("rlm/rag-prompt");const llm = new ChatOpenAI({ model: "gpt-3.5-turbo", temperature: 0 });const ragChain = await createStuffDocumentsChain({ llm, prompt, outputParser: new StringOutputParser(),});
await ragChain.invoke({ context: await retriever.invoke("What is Task Decomposition?"), question: "What is Task Decomposition?",});
"Task decomposition is a technique used to break down complex tasks into smaller and simpler steps. I"... 208 more characters
Contextualizing the question[β](#contextualizing-the-question "Direct link to Contextualizing the question")
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
First weβll need to define a sub-chain that takes historical messages and the latest user question, and reformulates the question if it makes reference to any information in the historical information.
Weβll use a prompt that includes a `MessagesPlaceholder` variable under the name βchat\_historyβ. This allows us to pass in a list of Messages to the prompt using the βchat\_historyβ input key, and these messages will be inserted after the system message and before the human message containing the latest question.
import { ChatPromptTemplate, MessagesPlaceholder,} from "@langchain/core/prompts";const contextualizeQSystemPrompt = `Given a chat history and the latest user questionwhich might reference context in the chat history, formulate a standalone questionwhich can be understood without the chat history. Do NOT answer the question,just reformulate it if needed and otherwise return it as is.`;const contextualizeQPrompt = ChatPromptTemplate.fromMessages([ ["system", contextualizeQSystemPrompt], new MessagesPlaceholder("chat_history"), ["human", "{question}"],]);const contextualizeQChain = contextualizeQPrompt .pipe(llm) .pipe(new StringOutputParser());
Using this chain we can ask follow-up questions that reference past messages and have them reformulated into standalone questions:
import { AIMessage, HumanMessage } from "@langchain/core/messages";await contextualizeQChain.invoke({ chat_history: [ new HumanMessage("What does LLM stand for?"), new AIMessage("Large language model"), ], question: "What is meant by large",});
'What is the definition of "large" in the context of a language model?'
Chain with chat history[β](#chain-with-chat-history "Direct link to Chain with chat history")
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
And now we can build our full QA chain.
Notice we add some routing functionality to only run the βcondense question chainβ when our chat history isnβt empty. Here weβre taking advantage of the fact that if a function in an LCEL chain returns another chain, that chain will itself be invoked.
import { ChatPromptTemplate, MessagesPlaceholder,} from "@langchain/core/prompts";import { RunnablePassthrough, RunnableSequence,} from "@langchain/core/runnables";import { formatDocumentsAsString } from "langchain/util/document";const qaSystemPrompt = `You are an assistant for question-answering tasks.Use the following pieces of retrieved context to answer the question.If you don't know the answer, just say that you don't know.Use three sentences maximum and keep the answer concise.{context}`;const qaPrompt = ChatPromptTemplate.fromMessages([ ["system", qaSystemPrompt], new MessagesPlaceholder("chat_history"), ["human", "{question}"],]);const contextualizedQuestion = (input: Record<string, unknown>) => { if ("chat_history" in input) { return contextualizeQChain; } return input.question;};const ragChain = RunnableSequence.from([ RunnablePassthrough.assign({ context: (input: Record<string, unknown>) => { if ("chat_history" in input) { const chain = contextualizedQuestion(input); return chain.pipe(retriever).pipe(formatDocumentsAsString); } return ""; }, }), qaPrompt, llm,]);
let chat_history = [];const question = "What is task decomposition?";const aiMsg = await ragChain.invoke({ question, chat_history });console.log(aiMsg);chat_history = chat_history.concat(aiMsg);const secondQuestion = "What are common ways of doing it?";await ragChain.invoke({ question: secondQuestion, chat_history });

Here weβve gone over how to add application logic for incorporating historical outputs, but weβre still manually updating the chat history and inserting it into each input. In a real Q&A application weβll want some way of persisting chat history and some way of automatically inserting and updating it.
For this we can use:
* [BaseChatMessageHistory](/v0.1/docs/modules/memory/chat_messages/): Store chat history.
* [RunnableWithMessageHistory](/v0.1/docs/expression_language/how_to/message_history/): Wrapper for an LCEL chain and a `BaseChatMessageHistory` that handles injecting chat history into inputs and updating it after each invocation.
For a detailed walkthrough of how to use these classes together to create a stateful conversational chain, head to the [How to add message history (memory)](/v0.1/docs/expression_language/how_to/message_history/) LCEL page.

How can we get a model to cite which parts of the source documents it referenced in its response?
To explore some techniques for extracting citations, letβs first create a simple RAG chain. To start weβll just retrieve from the web using the [TavilySearchAPIRetriever](https://js.langchain.com/docs/integrations/retrievers/tavily).
Setup[β](#setup "Direct link to Setup")
---------------------------------------
### Dependencies[β](#dependencies "Direct link to Dependencies")
Weβll use an OpenAI chat model and embeddings and a Memory vector store in this walkthrough, but everything shown here works with any [ChatModel](/v0.1/docs/modules/model_io/chat/) or [LLM](/v0.1/docs/modules/model_io/llms/), [Embeddings](https://js.langchain.com/docs/modules/data_connection/text_embedding/), and [VectorStore](https://js.langchain.com/docs/modules/data_connection/vectorstores/) or [Retriever](/v0.1/docs/modules/data_connection/retrievers/).
Weβll use the following packages:
npm install --save langchain @langchain/community @langchain/openai
We need to set environment variables for Tavily Search & OpenAI:
export OPENAI_API_KEY=YOUR_KEYexport TAVILY_API_KEY=YOUR_KEY
### LangSmith[β](#langsmith "Direct link to LangSmith")
Many of the applications you build with LangChain will contain multiple steps with multiple invocations of LLM calls. As these applications get more and more complex, it becomes crucial to be able to inspect what exactly is going on inside your chain or agent. The best way to do this is with [LangSmith](https://smith.langchain.com/).
Note that LangSmith is not needed, but it is helpful. If you do want to use LangSmith, after you sign up at the link above, make sure to set your environment variables to start logging traces:
export LANGCHAIN_TRACING_V2=trueexport LANGCHAIN_API_KEY=YOUR_KEY
### Initial setup[β](#initial-setup "Direct link to Initial setup")
import { TavilySearchAPIRetriever } from "@langchain/community/retrievers/tavily_search_api";import { ChatPromptTemplate } from "@langchain/core/prompts";import { ChatOpenAI } from "@langchain/openai";const llm = new ChatOpenAI({ model: "gpt-3.5-turbo", temperature: 0,});const retriever = new TavilySearchAPIRetriever({ k: 6,});const prompt = ChatPromptTemplate.fromMessages([ [ "system", "You're a helpful AI assistant. Given a user question and some web article snippets, answer the user question. If none of the articles answer the question, just say you don't know.\n\nHere are the web articles:{context}", ], ["human", "{question}"],]);
Now that weβve got a model, retriever and prompt, letβs chain them all together. Weβll need to add some logic for formatting our retrieved `Document`s to a string that can be passed to our prompt. Weβll make it so our chain returns both the answer and the retrieved Documents.
import { Document } from "@langchain/core/documents";import { StringOutputParser } from "@langchain/core/output_parsers";import { RunnableMap, RunnablePassthrough } from "@langchain/core/runnables";/** * Format the documents into a readable string. */const formatDocs = (input: Record<string, any>): string => { const { docs } = input; return ( "\n\n" + docs .map( (doc: Document) => `Article title: ${doc.metadata.title}\nArticle Snippet: ${doc.pageContent}` ) .join("\n\n") );};// subchain for generating an answer once we've done retrievalconst answerChain = prompt.pipe(llm).pipe(new StringOutputParser());const map = RunnableMap.from({ question: new RunnablePassthrough(), docs: retriever,});// complete chain that calls the retriever -> formats docs to string -> runs answer subchain -> returns just the answer and retrieved docs.const chain = map .assign({ context: formatDocs }) .assign({ answer: answerChain }) .pick(["answer", "docs"]);
await chain.invoke("How fast are cheetahs?");

Function-calling[β](#function-calling "Direct link to Function-calling")
------------------------------------------------------------------------
### Cite documents[β](#cite-documents "Direct link to Cite documents")
Letβs try using [OpenAI function-calling](/v0.1/docs/modules/model_io/chat/function_calling/) to make the model specify which of the provided documents itβs actually referencing when answering. LangChain has some utils for converting objects or zod objects to the JSONSchema format expected by OpenAI, so weβll use that to define our functions:
import { z } from "zod";import { StructuredTool } from "@langchain/core/tools";import { formatToOpenAITool } from "@langchain/openai";class CitedAnswer extends StructuredTool { name = "cited_answer"; description = "Answer the user question based only on the given sources, and cite the sources used."; schema = z.object({ answer: z .string() .describe( "The answer to the user question, which is based only on the given sources." ), citations: z .array(z.number()) .describe( "The integer IDs of the SPECIFIC sources which justify the answer." ), }); constructor() { super(); } _call(input: z.infer<(typeof this)["schema"]>): Promise<string> { return Promise.resolve(JSON.stringify(input, null, 2)); }}const asOpenAITool = formatToOpenAITool(new CitedAnswer());const tools1 = [asOpenAITool];
Letβs see what the model output is like when we pass in our functions and a user input:
const llmWithTool1 = llm.bind({ tools: tools1, tool_choice: asOpenAITool,});const exampleQ = `What Brian's height?Source: 1Information: Suzy is 6'2"Source: 2Information: Jeremiah is blondeSource: 3Information: Brian is 3 inches shorted than Suzy`;await llmWithTool1.invoke(exampleQ);
AIMessage { lc_serializable: true, lc_kwargs: { content: "", additional_kwargs: { function_call: undefined, tool_calls: [ { id: "call_WzPoDCIRQ1pCah8k93cVrqex", type: "function", function: [Object] } ] } }, lc_namespace: [ "langchain_core", "messages" ], content: "", name: undefined, additional_kwargs: { function_call: undefined, tool_calls: [ { id: "call_WzPoDCIRQ1pCah8k93cVrqex", type: "function", function: { name: "cited_answer", arguments: "{\n" + ` "answer": "Brian's height is 6'2\\" - 3 inches",\n` + ' "citations": [1, 3]\n' + "}" } } ] }}
LangSmith trace [here](https://smith.langchain.com/public/34441213-cbb9-4775-a67e-2294aa1ccf69/r)
Weβll add an output parser to convert the OpenAI API response to a nice object. We use the [JsonOutputKeyToolsParser](https://api.js.langchain.com/classes/langchain_output_parsers.JsonOutputKeyToolsParser.html) for this:
import { JsonOutputKeyToolsParser } from "langchain/output_parsers";const outputParser = new JsonOutputKeyToolsParser({ keyName: "cited_answer", returnSingle: true,});await llmWithTool1.pipe(outputParser).invoke(exampleQ);
{ answer: `Brian's height is 6'2" - 3 inches`, citations: [ 1, 3 ] }
LangSmith trace [here](https://smith.langchain.com/public/1a045c25-ec5c-49f5-9756-6022edfea6af/r)
Now weβre ready to put together our chain
import { Document } from "@langchain/core/documents";const formatDocsWithId = (docs: Array<Document>): string => { return ( "\n\n" + docs .map( (doc: Document, idx: number) => `Source ID: ${idx}\nArticle title: ${doc.metadata.title}\nArticle Snippet: ${doc.pageContent}` ) .join("\n\n") );};// subchain for generating an answer once we've done retrievalconst answerChain1 = prompt.pipe(llmWithTool1).pipe(outputParser);const map1 = RunnableMap.from({ question: new RunnablePassthrough(), docs: retriever,});// complete chain that calls the retriever -> formats docs to string -> runs answer subchain -> returns just the answer and retrieved docs.const chain1 = map1 .assign({ context: (input: { docs: Array<Document> }) => formatDocsWithId(input.docs), }) .assign({ cited_answer: answerChain1 }) .pick(["cited_answer", "docs"]);
await chain1.invoke("How fast are cheetahs?");
{ cited_answer: { answer: "Cheetahs can reach speeds of up to 75 mph (120 km/h).", citations: [ 3 ] }, docs: [ Document { pageContent: "The speeds attained by the cheetah may be only slightly greater than those achieved by the pronghorn"... 2527 more characters, metadata: { title: "Cheetah - Wikipedia", source: "https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cheetah", score: 0.97773, images: null } }, Document { pageContent: "Contact Us β +\n" + "Address\n" + "Smithsonian's National Zoo & ConservationΒ BiologyΒ InstituteΒ Β 3001 Connecticut"... 1343 more characters, metadata: { title: "Cheetah | Smithsonian's National Zoo and Conservation Biology Institute", source: "https://nationalzoo.si.edu/animals/cheetah", score: 0.9681, images: null } }, Document { pageContent: "The maximum speed cheetahs have been measured at is 114 km (71 miles) per hour, and they routinely r"... 1048 more characters, metadata: { title: "Cheetah | Description, Speed, Habitat, Diet, Cubs, & Facts", source: "https://www.britannica.com/animal/cheetah-mammal", score: 0.9459, images: null } }, Document { pageContent: "The science of cheetah speed\n" + "The cheetah (Acinonyx jubatus) is the fastest land animal on Earth, cap"... 738 more characters, metadata: { title: "How Fast Can a Cheetah Run? - ThoughtCo", source: "https://www.thoughtco.com/how-fast-can-a-cheetah-run-4587031", score: 0.93957, images: null } }, Document { pageContent: "One of two videos from National Geographic's award-winning multimedia coverage of cheetahs in the ma"... 60 more characters, metadata: { title: "The Science of a Cheetah's Speed | National Geographic", source: "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=icFMTB0Pi0g", score: 0.92814, images: null } }, Document { pageContent: "If a lion comes along, the cheetah will abandon its catch -- it can't fight off a lion, and chances "... 911 more characters, metadata: { title: "What makes a cheetah run so fast? | HowStuffWorks", source: "https://animals.howstuffworks.com/mammals/cheetah-speed.htm", score: 0.85762, images: null } } ]}

### Cite snippets[β](#cite-snippets "Direct link to Cite snippets")
What if we want to cite actual text spans? We can try to get our model to return these, too.
_Aside: Note that if we break up our documents so that we have many documents with only a sentence or two instead of a few long documents, citing documents becomes roughly equivalent to citing snippets, and may be easier for the model because the model just needs to return an identifier for each snippet instead of the actual text. Probably worth trying both approaches and evaluating._
const citationSchema = z.object({ sourceId: z .number() .describe( "The integer ID of a SPECIFIC source which justifies the answer." ), quote: z .string() .describe( "The VERBATIM quote from the specified source that justifies the answer." ),});class QuotedAnswer extends StructuredTool { name = "quoted_answer"; description = "Answer the user question based only on the given sources, and cite the sources used."; schema = z.object({ answer: z .string() .describe( "The answer to the user question, which is based only on the given sources." ), citations: z .array(citationSchema) .describe("Citations from the given sources that justify the answer."), }); constructor() { super(); } _call(input: z.infer<(typeof this)["schema"]>): Promise<string> { return Promise.resolve(JSON.stringify(input, null, 2)); }}const quotedAnswerTool = formatToOpenAITool(new QuotedAnswer());const tools2 = [quotedAnswerTool];

Direct prompting[β](#direct-prompting "Direct link to Direct prompting")
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Most models donβt yet support function-calling. We can achieve similar results with direct prompting. Letβs see what this looks like using an Anthropic chat model that is particularly proficient in working with XML:
### Setup[β](#setup-1 "Direct link to Setup")
Install the LangChain Anthropic integration package:
npm install @langchain/anthropic
Add your Anthropic API key to your environment:
export ANTHROPIC_API_KEY=YOUR_KEY
import { ChatAnthropic } from "@langchain/anthropic";import { ChatPromptTemplate } from "@langchain/core/prompts";const anthropic = new ChatAnthropic({ model: "claude-instant-1.2",});const system = `You're a helpful AI assistant. Given a user question and some web article snippets,answer the user question and provide citations. If none of the articles answer the question, just say you don't know.Remember, you must return both an answer and citations. A citation consists of a VERBATIM quote thatjustifies the answer and the ID of the quote article. Return a citation for every quote across all articlesthat justify the answer. Use the following format for your final output:<cited_answer> <answer></answer> <citations> <citation><source_id></source_id><quote></quote></citation> <citation><source_id></source_id><quote></quote></citation> ... </citations></cited_answer>Here are the web articles:{context}`;const anthropicPrompt = ChatPromptTemplate.fromMessages([ ["system", system], ["human", "{question}"],]);

Retrieval post-processing[β](#retrieval-post-processing "Direct link to Retrieval post-processing")
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Another approach is to post-process our retrieved documents to compress the content, so that the source content is already minimal enough that we donβt need the model to cite specific sources or spans. For example, we could break up each document into a sentence or two, embed those and keep only the most relevant ones. LangChain has some built-in components for this. Here weβll use a [RecursiveCharacterTextSplitter](https://js.langchain.com/docs/modules/data_connection/document_transformers/recursive_text_splitter), which creates chunks of a specified size by splitting on separator substrings, and an [EmbeddingsFilter](https://js.langchain.com/docs/modules/data_connection/retrievers/contextual_compression#embeddingsfilter), which keeps only the texts with the most relevant embeddings.
import { RecursiveCharacterTextSplitter } from "langchain/text_splitter";import { EmbeddingsFilter } from "langchain/retrievers/document_compressors/embeddings_filter";import { OpenAIEmbeddings } from "@langchain/openai";import { DocumentInterface } from "@langchain/core/documents";import { RunnableMap, RunnablePassthrough } from "@langchain/core/runnables";const splitter = new RecursiveCharacterTextSplitter({ chunkSize: 400, chunkOverlap: 0, separators: ["\n\n", "\n", ".", " "], keepSeparator: false,});const compressor = new EmbeddingsFilter({ embeddings: new OpenAIEmbeddings(), k: 10,});const splitAndFilter = async (input): Promise<Array<DocumentInterface>> => { const { docs, question } = input; const splitDocs = await splitter.splitDocuments(docs); const statefulDocs = await compressor.compressDocuments(splitDocs, question); return statefulDocs;};const retrieveMap = RunnableMap.from({ question: new RunnablePassthrough(), docs: retriever,});const retrieve = retrieveMap.pipe(splitAndFilter);const docs = await retrieve.invoke("How fast are cheetahs?");for (const doc of docs) { console.log(doc.pageContent, "\n\n");}
The maximum speed cheetahs have been measured at is 114 km (71 miles) per hour, and they routinely reach velocities of 80β100 km (50β62 miles) per hour while pursuing prey.cheetah,(Acinonyx jubatus),The science of cheetah speedThe cheetah (Acinonyx jubatus) is the fastest land animal on Earth, capable of reaching speeds as high as 75 mph or 120 km/h. Cheetahs are predators that sneak up on their prey and sprint a short distance to chase and attack. Key Takeaways: How Fast Can a Cheetah Run?Fastest Cheetah on EarthBuilt for speed, the cheetah can accelerate from zero to 45 in just 2.5 seconds and reach top speeds of 60 to 70 mph, making it the fastest land mammal! Fun FactsConservation StatusCheetah NewsTaxonomic InformationAnimal NewsNZCBI staff in Front Royal, Virginia, are mourning the loss of Walnut, a white-naped crane who became an internet sensation for choosing one of her keepers as her mate.Scientists calculate a cheetah's top speed is 75 mph, but the fastest recorded speed is somewhat slower. The top 10 fastest animals are:The pronghorn, an American animal resembling an antelope, is the fastest land animal in the Western Hemisphere. While a cheetah's top speed ranges from 65 to 75 mph (104 to 120 km/h), its average speed is only 40 mph (64 km/hr), punctuated by short bursts at its top speed. Basically, if a predator threatens to take a cheetah's kill or attack its young, a cheetah has to run.A cheetah eats a variety of small animals, including game birds, rabbits, small antelopes (including the springbok, impala, and gazelle), young warthogs, and larger antelopes (such as the kudu, hartebeest, oryx, and roan). Their faces are distinguished by prominent black lines that curve from the inner corner of each eye to the outer corners of the mouth, like a well-worn trail of inky tears.4 kg) Cheetah moms spend a lot of time teaching their cubs to chase, sometimes dragging live animals back to the den so the cubs can practice the chase-and-catch processAdvertisement If confronted, a roughly 125-pound cheetah will always run rather than fight -- it's too weak, light and thin to have any chance against something like a lion, which can be twice as long as a cheetah and weigh more than 400 pounds (181Cheetahs eat a variety of small animals, including game birds, rabbits, small antelopes (including the springbok, impala, and gazelle), young warthogs, and larger antelopes (such as the kudu, hartebeest, oryx, and roan)Historically, cheetahs ranged widely throughout Africa and Asia, from the Cape of Good Hope to the Mediterranean, throughout the Arabian Peninsula and the Middle East, from Israel, India and Pakistan north to the northern shores of the Caspian and Aral Seas, and west through Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan, Afghanistan, and Pakistan into central India.

Generation post-processing[β](#generation-post-processing "Direct link to Generation post-processing")
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Another approach is to post-process our model generation. In this example weβll first generate just an answer, and then weβll ask the model to annotate itβs own answer with citations. The downside of this approach is of course that it is slower and more expensive, because two model calls need to be made.
Letβs apply this to our initial chain.
import { StructuredTool } from "@langchain/core/tools";import { formatToOpenAITool } from "@langchain/openai";import { z } from "zod";class AnnotatedAnswer extends StructuredTool { name = "annotated_answer"; description = "Annotate the answer to the user question with quote citations that justify the answer"; schema = z.object({ citations: z .array(citationSchema) .describe("Citations from the given sources that justify the answer."), }); _call(input: z.infer<(typeof this)["schema"]>): Promise<string> { return Promise.resolve(JSON.stringify(input, null, 2)); }}const annotatedAnswerTool = formatToOpenAITool(new AnnotatedAnswer());const llmWithTools5 = llm.bind({ tools: [annotatedAnswerTool], tool_choice: annotatedAnswerTool,});

Using agents
============
This is an agent specifically optimized for doing retrieval when necessary and also holding a conversation.
To start, we will set up the retriever we want to use, and then turn it into a retriever tool. Next, we will use the high level constructor for this type of agent. Finally, we will walk through how to construct a conversational retrieval agent from components.
Setup[β](#setup "Direct link to Setup")
---------------------------------------
### Dependencies[β](#dependencies "Direct link to Dependencies")
Weβll use an OpenAI chat model and embeddings and a Memory vector store in this walkthrough, but everything shown here works with any [ChatModel](/v0.1/docs/modules/model_io/chat/) or [LLM](/v0.1/docs/modules/model_io/llms/), [Embeddings](/v0.1/docs/modules/data_connection/text_embedding/), and [VectorStore](/v0.1/docs/modules/data_connection/vectorstores/) or [Retriever](/v0.1/docs/modules/data_connection/retrievers/).
Weβll use the following packages:
npm install --save langchain @langchain/openai
We need to set our environment variable for OpenAI:
export OPENAI_API_KEY=YOUR_KEY
### LangSmith[β](#langsmith "Direct link to LangSmith")
Many of the applications you build with LangChain will contain multiple steps with multiple invocations of LLM calls. As these applications get more and more complex, it becomes crucial to be able to inspect what exactly is going on inside your chain or agent. The best way to do this is with [LangSmith](https://smith.langchain.com/).
Note that LangSmith is not needed, but it is helpful. If you do want to use LangSmith, after you sign up at the link above, make sure to set your environment variables to start logging traces:
export LANGCHAIN_TRACING_V2=trueexport LANGCHAIN_API_KEY=YOUR_KEY
The Retriever[β](#the-retriever "Direct link to The Retriever")
---------------------------------------------------------------
To start, we need a retriever to use! The code here is mostly just example code. Feel free to use your own retriever and skip to the section on creating a retriever tool.
import { TextLoader } from "langchain/document_loaders/fs/text";const loader = new TextLoader("../../../../../examples/state_of_the_union.txt");const documents = await loader.load();
import { CharacterTextSplitter } from "langchain/text_splitter";import { MemoryVectorStore } from "langchain/vectorstores/memory";import { OpenAIEmbeddings } from "@langchain/openai";const textSplitter = new CharacterTextSplitter({ chunkSize: 1000, chunkOverlap: 0,});const texts = await textSplitter.splitDocuments(documents);console.log("texts.length", texts.length);const embeddings = new OpenAIEmbeddings();const db = await MemoryVectorStore.fromDocuments(texts, embeddings);
texts.length 41
const retriever = db.asRetriever();
Retriever Tool[β](#retriever-tool "Direct link to Retriever Tool")
------------------------------------------------------------------
Now we need to create a tool for our retriever. The main things we need to pass in are a name for the retriever as well as a description. These will both be used by the language model, so they should be informative.
import { createRetrieverTool } from "langchain/tools/retriever";const tool = createRetrieverTool(retriever, { name: "search_state_of_union", description: "Searches and returns excerpts from the 2022 State of the Union.",});const tools = [tool];
Agent Constructor[β](#agent-constructor "Direct link to Agent Constructor")
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Here, we will use the high level `createOpenaiToolsAgent` API to construct the agent.
Notice that beside the list of tools, the only thing we need to pass in is a language model to use. Under the hood, this agent is using the OpenAI tool-calling capabilities, so we need to use a ChatOpenAI model.
import { pull } from "langchain/hub";import { ChatPromptTemplate } from "@langchain/core/prompts";const prompt = await pull<ChatPromptTemplate>("hwchase17/openai-tools-agent");prompt.promptMessages;

import { ChatOpenAI } from "@langchain/openai";const llm = new ChatOpenAI({ temperature: 0 });
import { createOpenAIToolsAgent, AgentExecutor } from "langchain/agents";const agent = await createOpenAIToolsAgent({ llm, tools, prompt,});const agentExecutor = new AgentExecutor({ agent, tools,});
We can now try it out!
const result1 = await agentExecutor.invoke({ input: "hi im bob" });
result1.output;
"Hello Bob! How can I assist you today?"
Notice that it now does retrieval
const result2 = await agentExecutor.invoke({ input: `what did the president say about ketanji brown jackson in the most recent state of the union? The current date is ${new Date().toDateString()}`,});

Using local models
==================
The popularity of projects like [PrivateGPT](https://github.com/imartinez/privateGPT), [llama.cpp](https://github.com/ggerganov/llama.cpp), and [Ollama](https://github.com/ollama/ollama) underscore the importance of running LLMs locally.
LangChain has [integrations](/v0.1/docs/integrations/platforms/) with many open-source LLMs that can be run locally.
For example, here we show how to run `OllamaEmbeddings` or `LLaMA2` locally (e.g., on your laptop) using local embeddings and a local LLM.
Document Loading[β](#document-loading "Direct link to Document Loading")
------------------------------------------------------------------------
First, install packages needed for local embeddings and vector storage.
Setup[β](#setup "Direct link to Setup")
---------------------------------------
### Dependencies[β](#dependencies "Direct link to Dependencies")
Weβll use the following packages:
npm install --save langchain @langchain/community cheerio
### LangSmith[β](#langsmith "Direct link to LangSmith")
Many of the applications you build with LangChain will contain multiple steps with multiple invocations of LLM calls. As these applications get more and more complex, it becomes crucial to be able to inspect what exactly is going on inside your chain or agent. The best way to do this is with [LangSmith](https://smith.langchain.com/).
Note that LangSmith is not needed, but it is helpful. If you do want to use LangSmith, after you sign up at the link above, make sure to set your environment variables to start logging traces:
export LANGCHAIN_TRACING_V2=trueexport LANGCHAIN_API_KEY=YOUR_KEY
### Initial setup[β](#initial-setup "Direct link to Initial setup")
Load and split an example document.
Weβll use a blog post on agents as an example.
import "cheerio";import { RecursiveCharacterTextSplitter } from "langchain/text_splitter";import { CheerioWebBaseLoader } from "langchain/document_loaders/web/cheerio";
const loader = new CheerioWebBaseLoader( "https://lilianweng.github.io/posts/2023-06-23-agent/");const docs = await loader.load();const textSplitter = new RecursiveCharacterTextSplitter({ chunkSize: 500, chunkOverlap: 0,});const allSplits = await textSplitter.splitDocuments(docs);console.log(allSplits.length);
146
Next, weβll use `OllamaEmbeddings` for our local embeddings. Follow [these instructions](https://github.com/ollama/ollama) to set up and run a local Ollama instance.
import { OllamaEmbeddings } from "@langchain/community/embeddings/ollama";import { MemoryVectorStore } from "langchain/vectorstores/memory";const embeddings = new OllamaEmbeddings();const vectorStore = await MemoryVectorStore.fromDocuments( allSplits, embeddings);
Test similarity search is working with our local embeddings.
const question = "What are the approaches to Task Decomposition?";const docs = await vectorStore.similaritySearch(question);console.log(docs.length);
4
Model[β](#model "Direct link to Model")
---------------------------------------
### LLaMA2[β](#llama2 "Direct link to LLaMA2")
For local LLMs weβll use also use `ollama`.
import { ChatOllama } from "@langchain/community/chat_models/ollama";const ollamaLlm = new ChatOllama({ baseUrl: "http://localhost:11434", // Default value model: "llama2", // Default value});
const response = await ollamaLlm.invoke( "Simulate a rap battle between Stephen Colbert and John Oliver");console.log(response.content);
[The stage is set for a fierce rap battle between two of the funniest men on television. Stephen Colbert and John Oliver are standing face to face, each with their own microphone and confident smirk on their face.]Stephen Colbert:Yo, John Oliver, I heard you've been talking smackAbout my show and my satire, saying it's all fakeBut let me tell you something, brother, I'm the real dealI've been making fun of politicians for years, with no concealJohn Oliver:Oh, Stephen, you think you're so clever and smartBut your jokes are stale and your delivery's a work of artYou're just a pale imitation of the real deal, Jon StewartI'm the one who's really making waves, while you're just a little birdStephen Colbert:Well, John, I may not be as loud as you, but I'm smarterMy satire is more subtle, and it goes right over their headsI'm the one who's been exposing the truth for yearsWhile you're just a British interloper, trying to steal the cheersJohn Oliver:Oh, Stephen, you may have your fans, but I've got the brainsMy show is more than just slapstick and silly jokes, it's got depth and gainsI'm the one who's really making a difference, while you're just a clownMy satire is more than just a joke, it's a call to action, and I've got the crown[The crowd cheers and chants as the two comedians continue their rap battle.]Stephen Colbert:You may have your fans, John, but I'm the king of satireI've been making fun of politicians for years, and I'm still standing tallMy jokes are clever and smart, while yours are just plain dumbI'm the one who's really in control, and you're just a pretender to the throne.John Oliver:Oh, Stephen, you may have your moment in the sunBut I'm the one who's really shining bright, and my star is just beginning to riseMy satire is more than just a joke, it's a call to action, and I've got the powerI'm the one who's really making a difference, and you're just a fleeting flower.[The crowd continues to cheer and chant as the two comedians continue their rap battle.]

Using in a chain[β](#using-in-a-chain "Direct link to Using in a chain")
------------------------------------------------------------------------
We can create a summarization chain with either model by passing in the retrieved docs and a simple prompt.
It formats the prompt template using the input key values provided and passes the formatted string to `LLama-V2`, or another specified LLM.
import { RunnableSequence } from "@langchain/core/runnables";import { StringOutputParser } from "@langchain/core/output_parsers";import { PromptTemplate } from "@langchain/core/prompts";import { createStuffDocumentsChain } from "langchain/chains/combine_documents";const prompt = PromptTemplate.fromTemplate( "Summarize the main themes in these retrieved docs: {context}");const chain = await createStuffDocumentsChain({ llm: ollamaLlm, outputParser: new StringOutputParser(), prompt,});
const question = "What are the approaches to Task Decomposition?";const docs = await vectorStore.similaritySearch(question);await chain.invoke({ context: docs,});
"The main themes retrieved from the provided documents are:\n" + "\n" + "1. Sensory Memory: The ability to retain"... 1117 more characters
See the LangSmith trace [here](https://smith.langchain.com/public/47cf6c2a-3d86-4f2b-9a51-ee4663b19152/r)
Q&A[β](#qa "Direct link to Q&A")
--------------------------------
We can also use the LangChain Prompt Hub to store and fetch prompts that are model-specific.
Letβs try with a default RAG prompt, [here](https://smith.langchain.com/hub/rlm/rag-prompt).
import { pull } from "langchain/hub";import { ChatPromptTemplate } from "@langchain/core/prompts";const ragPrompt = await pull<ChatPromptTemplate>("rlm/rag-prompt");const chain = await createStuffDocumentsChain({ llm: ollamaLlm, outputParser: new StringOutputParser(), prompt: ragPrompt,});
await chain.invoke({ context: docs, question });
"Task decomposition is a crucial step in breaking down complex problems into manageable parts for eff"... 1095 more characters
See the LangSmith trace [here](https://smith.langchain.com/public/dd3a189b-53a1-4f31-9766-244cd04ad1f7/r)
Q&A with retrieval[β](#qa-with-retrieval "Direct link to Q&A with retrieval")
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Instead of manually passing in docs, we can automatically retrieve them from our vector store based on the user question.
This will use a QA default prompt and will retrieve from the vectorDB.
import { RunnablePassthrough, RunnableSequence,} from "@langchain/core/runnables";import { formatDocumentsAsString } from "langchain/util/document";const retriever = vectorStore.asRetriever();const qaChain = RunnableSequence.from([ { context: (input: { question: string }, callbacks) => { const retrieverAndFormatter = retriever.pipe(formatDocumentsAsString); return retrieverAndFormatter.invoke(input.question, callbacks); }, question: new RunnablePassthrough(), }, ragPrompt, ollamaLlm, new StringOutputParser(),]);await qaChain.invoke({ question });
"Based on the context provided, I understand that you are asking me to answer a question related to m"... 948 more characters

Returning sources
=================
Often in Q&A applications itβs important to show users the sources that were used to generate the answer. The simplest way to do this is for the chain to return the Documents that were retrieved in each generation.
Weβll work off of the Q&A app we built over the [LLM Powered Autonomous Agents](https://lilianweng.github.io/posts/2023-06-23-agent/) blog post by Lilian Weng in the [Quickstart](/v0.1/docs/use_cases/question_answering/quickstart/).
Setup[β](#setup "Direct link to Setup")
---------------------------------------
### Dependencies[β](#dependencies "Direct link to Dependencies")
Weβll use an OpenAI chat model and embeddings and a Memory vector store in this walkthrough, but everything shown here works with any [ChatModel](/v0.1/docs/modules/model_io/chat/) or [LLM](/v0.1/docs/modules/model_io/llms/), [Embeddings](/v0.1/docs/modules/data_connection/text_embedding/), and [VectorStore](/v0.1/docs/modules/data_connection/vectorstores/) or [Retriever](/v0.1/docs/modules/data_connection/retrievers/).
Weβll use the following packages:
npm install --save langchain @langchain/openai cheerio
We need to set environment variable `OPENAI_API_KEY`:
export OPENAI_API_KEY=YOUR_KEY
### LangSmith[β](#langsmith "Direct link to LangSmith")
Many of the applications you build with LangChain will contain multiple steps with multiple invocations of LLM calls. As these applications get more and more complex, it becomes crucial to be able to inspect what exactly is going on inside your chain or agent. The best way to do this is with [LangSmith](https://smith.langchain.com/).

export LANGCHAIN_TRACING_V2=trueexport LANGCHAIN_API_KEY=YOUR_KEY
Chain without sources[β](#chain-without-sources "Direct link to Chain without sources")
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Here is the Q&A app we built over the [LLM Powered Autonomous Agents](https://lilianweng.github.io/posts/2023-06-23-agent/) blog post by Lilian Weng in the [Quickstart](/v0.1/docs/use_cases/question_answering/quickstart/).
import "cheerio";import { CheerioWebBaseLoader } from "langchain/document_loaders/web/cheerio";import { RecursiveCharacterTextSplitter } from "langchain/text_splitter";import { MemoryVectorStore } from "langchain/vectorstores/memory";import { OpenAIEmbeddings, ChatOpenAI } from "@langchain/openai";import { pull } from "langchain/hub";import { ChatPromptTemplate } from "@langchain/core/prompts";import { formatDocumentsAsString } from "langchain/util/document";import { RunnableSequence, RunnablePassthrough,} from "@langchain/core/runnables";import { StringOutputParser } from "@langchain/core/output_parsers";
const loader = new CheerioWebBaseLoader( "https://lilianweng.github.io/posts/2023-06-23-agent/");const docs = await loader.load();const textSplitter = new RecursiveCharacterTextSplitter({ chunkSize: 1000, chunkOverlap: 200,});const splits = await textSplitter.splitDocuments(docs);const vectorStore = await MemoryVectorStore.fromDocuments( splits, new OpenAIEmbeddings());// Retrieve and generate using the relevant snippets of the blog.const retriever = vectorStore.asRetriever();const prompt = await pull<ChatPromptTemplate>("rlm/rag-prompt");const llm = new ChatOpenAI({ model: "gpt-3.5-turbo", temperature: 0 });const ragChain = RunnableSequence.from([ { context: retriever.pipe(formatDocumentsAsString), question: new RunnablePassthrough(), }, prompt, llm, new StringOutputParser(),]);
await ragChain.invoke("What is task decomposition?");

Adding sources[β](#adding-sources "Direct link to Adding sources")
------------------------------------------------------------------
With LCEL itβs easy to return the retrieved documents:
import { RunnableMap, RunnablePassthrough, RunnableSequence,} from "@langchain/core/runnables";import { formatDocumentsAsString } from "langchain/util/document";const ragChainFromDocs = RunnableSequence.from([ RunnablePassthrough.assign({ context: (input) => formatDocumentsAsString(input.context), }), prompt, llm, new StringOutputParser(),]);let ragChainWithSource = new RunnableMap({ steps: { context: retriever, question: new RunnablePassthrough() },});ragChainWithSource = ragChainWithSource.assign({ answer: ragChainFromDocs });await ragChainWithSource.invoke("What is Task Decomposition");

=========
Often in Q&A applications itβs important to show users the sources that were used to generate the answer. The simplest way to do this is for the chain to return the Documents that were retrieved in each generation.
Weβll work off of the Q&A app with sources we built over the [LLM Powered Autonomous Agents](https://lilianweng.github.io/posts/2023-06-23-agent/) blog post by Lilian Weng in the [Returning sources](/v0.1/docs/use_cases/question_answering/sources/) guide.
Setup[β](#setup "Direct link to Setup")
---------------------------------------
### Dependencies[β](#dependencies "Direct link to Dependencies")
Weβll use an OpenAI chat model and embeddings and a Memory vector store in this walkthrough, but everything shown here works with any [ChatModel](/v0.1/docs/modules/model_io/chat/) or [LLM](/v0.1/docs/modules/model_io/llms/), [Embeddings](/v0.1/docs/modules/data_connection/text_embedding/), and [VectorStore](/v0.1/docs/modules/data_connection/vectorstores/) or [Retriever](/v0.1/docs/modules/data_connection/retrievers/).
Weβll use the following packages:
npm install --save langchain @langchain/openai cheerio
We need to set environment variable `OPENAI_API_KEY`:
export OPENAI_API_KEY=YOUR_KEY
### LangSmith[β](#langsmith "Direct link to LangSmith")
Many of the applications you build with LangChain will contain multiple steps with multiple invocations of LLM calls. As these applications get more and more complex, it becomes crucial to be able to inspect what exactly is going on inside your chain or agent. The best way to do this is with [LangSmith](https://smith.langchain.com/).
Note that LangSmith is not needed, but it is helpful. If you do want to use LangSmith, after you sign up at the link above, make sure to set your environment variables to start logging traces:
export LANGCHAIN_TRACING_V2=trueexport LANGCHAIN_API_KEY=YOUR_KEY
Chain with sources[β](#chain-with-sources "Direct link to Chain with sources")

We can add some logic to compile our stream as itβs being returned:
const output = {};let currentKey: string | null = null;for await (const chunk of await ragChainWithSource.stream( "What is task decomposition?")) { for (const key of Object.keys(chunk)) { if (output[key] === undefined) { output[key] = chunk[key]; } else { output[key] += chunk[key]; } if (key !== currentKey) { console.log(`\n\n${key}: ${JSON.stringify(chunk[key])}`); } else { console.log(chunk[key]); } currentKey = key; }}

Tool use
========
An exciting use case for LLMs is building natural language interfaces for other "tools", whether those are APIs, functions, databases, etc. LangChain is great for building such interfaces because it has:
* Good model output parsing, which makes it easy to extract JSON, XML, OpenAI function-calls, etc. from model outputs.
* A large collection of built-in [Tools](/v0.1/docs/integrations/tools/).
* Provides a lot of flexibility in how you call these tools.
There are two main ways to use tools: [chains](/v0.1/docs/modules/chains/) and [agents](/v0.1/docs/modules/agents/). Chains lets you create a pre-defined sequence of tool usage(s). Agents let the model use tools in a loop, so that it can decide how many times to use tools.
To get started with both approaches, head to the [Quickstart](/v0.1/docs/use_cases/tool_use/quickstart/) page.

Tabular Question Answering
==========================
Lots of data and information is stored in tabular data, whether it be csvs, excel sheets, or SQL tables. This page covers all resources available in LangChain for working with data in this format.
Chains[β](#chains "Direct link to Chains")
------------------------------------------
If you are just getting started, and you have relatively small/simple tabular data, you should get started with chains. Chains are a sequence of predetermined steps, so they are good to get started with as they give you more control and let you understand what is happening better.
* [SQL Database Chain](/v0.1/docs/modules/chains/popular/sqlite/)
Agents[β](#agents "Direct link to Agents")
------------------------------------------
Agents are more complex, and involve multiple queries to the LLM to understand what to do. The downside of agents are that you have less control. The upside is that they are more powerful, which allows you to use them on larger databases and more complex schemas.

Graphs
======
One of the common types of databases that we can build Q&A systems for are graph databases. LangChain comes with a number of built-in chains and agents that are compatible with graph query language dialects like Cypher, Neo4j, and MemGraph. They enable use cases such as:
* Generating queries that will be run based on natural language questions,
* Creating chatbots that can answer questions based on database data,
* Building custom dashboards based on insights a user wants to analyze,
and much more.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Building Q&A systems of graph databases might require executing model-generated database queries. There are inherent risks in doing this. Make sure that your database connection permissions are always scoped as narrowly as possible for your chain/agentβs needs. This will mitigate though not eliminate the risks of building a model-driven system. For more on general security best practices, [see here](/v0.1/docs/security/).

Agent Simulations
=================
Agent simulations involve taking multiple agents and having them interact with each other.
They tend to use a simulation environment with an LLM as their "core" and helper classes to prompt them to ingest certain inputs such as prebuilt "observations", and react to new stimuli.
They also benefit from long-term memory so that they can preserve state between interactions.
Like Autonomous Agents, Agent Simulations are still experimental and based on papers such as [this one](https://arxiv.org/abs/2304.03442).

Audio/Video Structured Extraction
=================================
Google's Gemini API offers support for audio and video input, along with function calling. Together, we can pair these API features to extract structured data given audio or video input.
In the following examples, we'll demonstrate how to read and send MP3 and MP4 files to the Gemini API, and receive structured output as a response.
Setup[β](#setup "Direct link to Setup")
---------------------------------------
These examples use the Gemini API, so you'll need a Google VertexAI credentials file (or stringified credentials file if using a web environment):
GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS="credentials.json"
Next, install the `@langchain/google-vertexai` and `@langchain/community` packages:
tip
See [this section for general instructions on installing integration packages](/v0.1/docs/get_started/installation/#installing-integration-packages).
* npm
* Yarn
* pnpm
npm install @langchain/google-vertexai @langchain/core
yarn add @langchain/google-vertexai @langchain/core
pnpm add @langchain/google-vertexai @langchain/core
Video[β](#video "Direct link to Video")
---------------------------------------
This example uses a [LangChain YouTube video on datasets and testing in LangSmith](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N9hjO-Uy1Vo) sped up to 1.5x speed. It's then converted to `base64`, and sent to Gemini with a prompt asking for structured output of tasks I can do to improve my knowledge of datasets and testing in LangSmith.
We create a new tool for this using Zod, and pass it to the model via the `withStructuredOutput` method.
import { ChatPromptTemplate, MessagesPlaceholder,} from "@langchain/core/prompts";import { ChatVertexAI } from "@langchain/google-vertexai";import { HumanMessage } from "@langchain/core/messages";import fs from "fs";import { z } from "zod";function fileToBase64(filePath: string): string { return fs.readFileSync(filePath, "base64");}const lanceLsEvalsVideo = "lance_ls_eval_video.mp4";const lanceInBase64 = fileToBase64(lanceLsEvalsVideo);const tool = z.object({ tasks: z.array(z.string()).describe("A list of tasks."),});const model = new ChatVertexAI({ model: "gemini-1.5-pro-preview-0409", temperature: 0,}).withStructuredOutput(tool, { name: "tasks_list_tool",});const prompt = ChatPromptTemplate.fromMessages([ new MessagesPlaceholder("video"),]);const chain = prompt.pipe(model);const response = await chain.invoke({ video: new HumanMessage({ content: [ { type: "media", mimeType: "video/mp4", data: lanceInBase64, }, { type: "text", text: `The following video is an overview of how to build datasets in LangSmith.Given the following video, come up with three tasks I should do to further improve my knowledge around using datasets in LangSmith.Only reference features that were outlined or described in the video.Rules:Use the "tasks_list_tool" to return a list of tasks.Your tasks should be tailored for an engineer who is looking to improve their knowledge around using datasets and evaluations, specifically with LangSmith.`, }, ], }),});console.log("response", response);/*response { tasks: [ 'Explore the LangSmith SDK documentation for in-depth understanding of dataset creation, manipulation, and versioning functionalities.', 'Experiment with different dataset types like Key-Value, Chat, and LLM to understand their structures and use cases.', 'Try uploading a CSV file containing question-answer pairs to LangSmith and create a new dataset from it.' ]}*/

Audio[β](#audio "Direct link to Audio")
---------------------------------------
The next example loads an audio (MP3) file containing Mozart's Requiem in D Minor and prompts Gemini to return a single array of strings, with each string being an instrument from the song.
Here, we'll also use the `withStructuredOutput` method to get structured output from the model.
import { ChatPromptTemplate, MessagesPlaceholder,} from "@langchain/core/prompts";import { ChatVertexAI } from "@langchain/google-vertexai";import { HumanMessage } from "@langchain/core/messages";import fs from "fs";import { z } from "zod";function fileToBase64(filePath: string): string { return fs.readFileSync(filePath, "base64");}const mozartMp3File = "Mozart_Requiem_D_minor.mp3";const mozartInBase64 = fileToBase64(mozartMp3File);const tool = z.object({ instruments: z .array(z.string()) .describe("A list of instruments found in the audio."),});const model = new ChatVertexAI({ model: "gemini-1.5-pro-preview-0409", temperature: 0,}).withStructuredOutput(tool, { name: "instruments_list_tool",});const prompt = ChatPromptTemplate.fromMessages([ new MessagesPlaceholder("audio"),]);const chain = prompt.pipe(model);const response = await chain.invoke({ audio: new HumanMessage({ content: [ { type: "media", mimeType: "audio/mp3", data: mozartInBase64, }, { type: "text", text: `The following audio is a song by Mozart. Respond with a list of instruments you hear in the song.Rules:Use the "instruments_list_tool" to return a list of tasks.`, }, ], }),});console.log("response", response);/*response { instruments: [ 'violin', 'viola', 'cello', 'double bass', 'flute', 'oboe', 'clarinet', 'bassoon', 'horn', 'trumpet', 'timpani' ]}*/
#### API Reference:
* [ChatPromptTemplate](https://api.js.langchain.com/classes/langchain_core_prompts.ChatPromptTemplate.html) from `@langchain/core/prompts`
* [MessagesPlaceholder](https://api.js.langchain.com/classes/langchain_core_prompts.MessagesPlaceholder.html) from `@langchain/core/prompts`
* [ChatVertexAI](https://api.js.langchain.com/classes/langchain_google_vertexai.ChatVertexAI.html) from `@langchain/google-vertexai`
* [HumanMessage](https://api.js.langchain.com/classes/langchain_core_messages.HumanMessage.html) from `@langchain/core/messages`
From a quick Google search, we see the song was composed using the following instruments:
The Requiem is scored for 2 basset horns in F, 2 bassoons, 2 trumpets in D, 3 trombones (alto, tenor, and bass),timpani (2 drums), violins, viola, and basso continuo (cello, double bass, and organ).
Gemini did pretty well here! For music not being its primary focus, it was able to identify a few of the instruments used in the song, and didn't hallucinate any!

Code Understanding
==================
Use case[β](#use-case "Direct link to Use case")
------------------------------------------------
Source code analysis is one of the most popular LLM applications (e.g., [GitHub Co-Pilot](https://github.com/features/copilot), [Code Interpreter](https://chat.openai.com/auth/login?next=%2F%3Fmodel%3Dgpt-4-code-interpreter), [Codium](https://www.codium.ai/), and [Codeium](https://codeium.com/about)) for use-cases such as:
* Q&A over the code base to understand how it works
* Using LLMs for suggesting refactors or improvements
* Using LLMs for documenting the code
![RAG over code](/v0.1/assets/images/rag_code_diagram-cd1bda63c69e227203a1d5a7e8133887.png)
Overview[β](#overview "Direct link to Overview")
------------------------------------------------
The pipeline for QA over code follows the [steps we do for document question answering](/v0.1/docs/use_cases/question_answering/), with some differences:
In particular, we can employ a [splitting strategy](/v0.1/docs/modules/data_connection/document_transformers/code_splitter/) that does a few things:
* Keeps each top-level function and class in the code is loaded into separate documents.
* Puts remaining into a separate document.
* Retains metadata about where each split comes from
Quickstart[β](#quickstart "Direct link to Quickstart")
------------------------------------------------------
yarn add @supabase/supabase-js# Set env var OPENAI_API_KEY or load from a .env file
### Loading[β](#loading "Direct link to Loading")
We'll upload all JavaScript/TypeScript files using the `DirectoryLoader` and `TextLoader` classes.
The following script iterates over the files in the LangChain repository and loads every `.ts` file (a.k.a. documents):
import { DirectoryLoader } from "langchain/document_loaders/fs/directory";import { TextLoader } from "langchain/document_loaders/fs/text";import { RecursiveCharacterTextSplitter } from "langchain/text_splitter";
// Define the path to the repo to perform RAG on.const REPO_PATH = "/tmp/test_repo";
We load the code by passing the directory path to `DirectoryLoader`, which will load all files with `.ts` extensions. These files are then passed to a `TextLoader` which will return the contents of the file as a string.
const loader = new DirectoryLoader(REPO_PATH, { ".ts": (path) => new TextLoader(path),});const docs = await loader.load();
Next, we can create a `RecursiveCharacterTextSplitter` to split our code.
We'll call the static `fromLanguage` method to create a splitter that knows how to split JavaScript/TypeScript code.
const javascriptSplitter = RecursiveCharacterTextSplitter.fromLanguage("js", { chunkSize: 2000, chunkOverlap: 200,});const texts = await javascriptSplitter.splitDocuments(docs);console.log("Loaded ", texts.length, " documents.");
Loaded 3324 documents.
### RetrievalQA[β](#retrievalqa "Direct link to RetrievalQA")
We need to store the documents in a way we can semantically search for their content.
The most common approach is to embed the contents of each document then store the embedding and document in a vector store.
When setting up the vector store retriever:
* We test max marginal relevance for retrieval
* And 5 documents returned
In this example we'll be using Supabase, however you can pick any vector store with MMR search you'd like from [our large list of integrations](/v0.1/docs/integrations/vectorstores/).
tip
See [this section for general instructions on installing integration packages](/v0.1/docs/get_started/installation/#installing-integration-packages).
* npm
* Yarn
* pnpm
npm install @langchain/openai
yarn add @langchain/openai
pnpm add @langchain/openai
import { createClient } from "@supabase/supabase-js";import { OpenAIEmbeddings } from "@langchain/openai";import { SupabaseVectorStore } from "langchain/vectorstores/supabase";
const privateKey = process.env.SUPABASE_PRIVATE_KEY;if (!privateKey) throw new Error(`Expected env var SUPABASE_PRIVATE_KEY`);const url = process.env.SUPABASE_URL;if (!url) throw new Error(`Expected env var SUPABASE_URL`);const client = createClient(url, privateKey);
Once we've initialized our client we can pass it, along with some more options to the `.fromDocuments` method on `SupabaseVectorStore`.
For more instructions on how to set up Supabase, see the [Supabase docs](/v0.1/docs/integrations/vectorstores/supabase/).
const vectorStore = await SupabaseVectorStore.fromDocuments( texts, new OpenAIEmbeddings(), { client, tableName: "documents", queryName: "match_documents", });
const retriever = vectorStore.asRetriever({ searchType: "mmr", // Use max marginal relevance search searchKwargs: { fetchK: 5 },});
### Chat[β](#chat "Direct link to Chat")
We'll setup our model and memory system just as we'd do for any other chatbot application.
import { ChatOpenAI } from "@langchain/openai";
Pipe the `StringOutputParser` through since both chains which use this model will also need this output parser.
const model = new ChatOpenAI({ model: "gpt-4" }).pipe(new StringOutputParser());
We're going to use `BufferMemory` as our memory chain. All this will do is take in inputs/outputs from the LLM and store them in memory.
import { BufferMemory } from "langchain/memory";
const memory = new BufferMemory({ returnMessages: true, // Return stored messages as instances of `BaseMessage` memoryKey: "chat_history", // This must match up with our prompt template input variable.});
Now we can construct our main sequence of chains. We're going to be building `ConversationalRetrievalChain` using Expression Language.
import { ChatPromptTemplate, MessagesPlaceholder, AIMessagePromptTemplate, HumanMessagePromptTemplate,} from "langchain/prompts";import { RunnableSequence } from "@langchain/core/runnables";import { formatDocumentsAsString } from "langchain/util/document";import { BaseMessage } from "langchain/schema";import { StringOutputParser } from "@langchain/core/output_parsers";
Construct the chain[β](#construct-the-chain "Direct link to Construct the chain")
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The meat of this code understanding example will be inside a single `RunnableSequence` chain. Here, we'll have a single input parameter for the question, and preform retrieval for context and chat history (if available). Then we'll preform the first LLM call to rephrase the users question. Finally, using the rephrased question, context and chat history we'll query the LLM to generate the final answer which we'll return to the user.
### Prompts[β](#prompts "Direct link to Prompts")
Step one is to define our prompts. We need two, the first we'll use to rephrase the users question, the second we'll use to combine the documents and question.
Question generator prompt:
const questionGeneratorTemplate = ChatPromptTemplate.fromMessages([ AIMessagePromptTemplate.fromTemplate( "Given the following conversation about a codebase and a follow up question, rephrase the follow up question to be a standalone question." ), new MessagesPlaceholder("chat_history"), AIMessagePromptTemplate.fromTemplate(`Follow Up Input: {question}Standalone question:`),]);
Combine documents prompt:
const combineDocumentsPrompt = ChatPromptTemplate.fromMessages([ AIMessagePromptTemplate.fromTemplate( "Use the following pieces of context to answer the question at the end. If you don't know the answer, just say that you don't know, don't try to make up an answer.\n\n{context}\n\n" ), new MessagesPlaceholder("chat_history"), HumanMessagePromptTemplate.fromTemplate("Question: {question}"),]);
Next, we'll construct both chains.
const combineDocumentsChain = RunnableSequence.from([ { question: (output: string) => output, chat_history: async () => { const { chat_history } = await memory.loadMemoryVariables({}); return chat_history; }, context: async (output: string) => { const relevantDocs = await retriever.getRelevantDocuments(output); return formatDocumentsAsString(relevantDocs); }, }, combineDocumentsPrompt, model, new StringOutputParser(),]);const conversationalQaChain = RunnableSequence.from([ { question: (i: { question: string }) => i.question, chat_history: async () => { const { chat_history } = await memory.loadMemoryVariables({}); return chat_history; }, }, questionGeneratorTemplate, model, new StringOutputParser(), combineDocumentsChain,]);
These two are somewhat complex chain so let's break it down.
* First, we define our single input parameter: `question: string`. Below this we also define `chat_history` which is not sourced from the user's input, but rather preforms a chat memory lookup.
* Next, we pipe those variables through to our prompt, model and lastly an output parser. This first part will rephrase the question, and return a single string of the rephrased question.
* In the next block we call the `combineDocumentsChain` which takes in the output from the first part of the `conversationalQaChain` and pipes it through to the next prompt. We also preform a retrieval call to get the relevant documents for the question and any chat history which might be present.
* Finally, the `RunnableSequence` returns the result of the model & output parser call from the `combineDocumentsChain`. This will return the final answer as a string to the user.
The last step is to invoke our chain!
const question = "How can I initialize a ReAct agent?";const result = await conversationalQaChain.invoke({ question,});
This is also where we'd save the LLM response to memory for future context.
await memory.saveContext( { input: question, }, { output: result, });
console.log(result);/**The steps to initialize a ReAct agent are:1. Import the necessary modules from their respective packages. \``` import { initializeAgentExecutorWithOptions } from "langchain/agents"; import { OpenAI } from "@langchain/openai"; import { SerpAPI } from "langchain/tools"; import { Calculator } from "langchain/tools/calculator"; \```2. Create instances of the needed tools (i.e., OpenAI model, SerpAPI, and Calculator), providing the necessary options. \``` const model = new OpenAI({ temperature: 0 }); const tools = [ new SerpAPI(process.env.SERPAPI_API_KEY, { location: "Austin,Texas,United States", hl: "en", gl: "us", }), new Calculator(), ]; \```3. Call `initializeAgentExecutorWithOptions` function with the created tools and model, and with the desired options to create an agent instance. \``` const executor = await initializeAgentExecutorWithOptions(tools, model, { agentType: "zero-shot-react-description", }); \```Note: In async environments, the steps can be wrapped in a try-catch block to handle any exceptions that might occur during execution. As shown in some of the examples, the process can be aborted using an AbortController to cancel the process after a certain period of time for fail-safe reasons. */
See the [LangSmith](https://smith.langchain.com) trace for these two chains [here](https://smith.langchain.com/public/c28c4b76-e197-4c34-9955-2cea29fe1591/r)
### Next steps[β](#next-steps "Direct link to Next steps")
Since we're saving our inputs/outputs in memory we can ask followups to the LLM.
Keep in mind, we're not implementing an agent with tools so it must derive answers from the relevant documents in our store. Because of this it may return answers with hallucinated imports, classes or more.
const question2 = "How can I import and use the Wikipedia and File System tools from LangChain instead?";const result2 = await conversationalQaChain.invoke({ question: question2,});
console.log(result2);/**Here is how to import and utilize WikipediaQueryRun and File System tools in the LangChain codebase:1. First, you have to import necessary tools and classes:\```javascript// for file system toolsimport { ReadFileTool, WriteFileTool, NodeFileStore } from "langchain/tools";// for wikipedia toolsimport { WikipediaQueryRun } from "langchain/tools";\```2. To use File System tools, you need an instance of File Store, either `NodeFileStore` for the server-side file system or `InMemoryFileStore` for in-memory file storage:\```javascript// example of instancing NodeFileStore for server-side file systemconst store = new NodeFileStore();\```3. Then you can instantiate your file system tools with this store:\```javascriptconst tools = [new ReadFileTool({ store }), new WriteFileTool({ store })];\```4. To use WikipediaQueryRun tool, first you have to instance it like this:\```javascriptconst wikipediaTool = new WikipediaQueryRun({ topKResults: 3, maxDocContentLength: 4000,});\```5. After that, you can use the `call` method of the created instance for making queries. For example, to query the Wikipedia for "Langchain":\```javascriptconst res = await wikipediaTool.call("Langchain");console.log(res);\```Note: This example assumes you're running the code in an asynchronous context. For synchronous context, you may need to adjust the code accordingly.\*/

Document loaders
================
info
Head to [Integrations](/v0.1/docs/integrations/document_loaders/) for documentation on built-in integrations with document loader providers.
Use document loaders to load data from a source as `Document`'s. A `Document` is a piece of text and associated metadata. For example, there are document loaders for loading a simple `.txt` file, for loading the text contents of any web page, or even for loading a transcript of a YouTube video.
Document loaders expose a "load" method for loading data as documents from a configured source. They optionally implement a "lazy load" as well for lazily loading data into memory.
Get started[β](#get-started "Direct link to Get started")
---------------------------------------------------------
The simplest loader reads in a file as text and places it all into one Document.
import { TextLoader } from "langchain/document_loaders/fs/text";const loader = new TextLoader("src/document_loaders/example_data/example.txt");const docs = await loader.load();

Text Splitters
==============
Once you've loaded documents, you'll often want to transform them to better suit your application. The simplest example is you may want to split a long document into smaller chunks that can fit into your model's context window. LangChain has a number of built-in document transformers that make it easy to split, combine, filter, and otherwise manipulate documents.
When you want to deal with long pieces of text, it is necessary to split up that text into chunks. As simple as this sounds, there is a lot of potential complexity here. Ideally, you want to keep the semantically related pieces of text together. What "semantically related" means could depend on the type of text. This notebook showcases several ways to do that.
At a high level, text splitters work as following:
1. Split the text up into small, semantically meaningful chunks (often sentences).
2. Start combining these small chunks into a larger chunk until you reach a certain size (as measured by some function).
3. Once you reach that size, make that chunk its own piece of text and then start creating a new chunk of text with some overlap (to keep context between chunks).
That means there are two different axes along which you can customize your text splitter:
1. How the text is split
2. How the chunk size is measured
Types of Text Splitters[β](#types-of-text-splitters "Direct link to Types of Text Splitters")
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
LangChain offers many different types of text splitters. Below is a table listing all of them, along with a few characteristics:
**Name**: Name of the text splitter
**Splits On**: How this text splitter splits text
**Adds Metadata**: Whether or not this text splitter adds metadata about where each chunk came from.
**Description**: Description of the splitter, including recommendation on when to use it.
Name
Splits On
Adds Metadata
Description
Recursive
A list of user defined characters
Recursively splits text. Splitting text recursively serves the purpose of trying to keep related pieces of text next to each other. This is the recommended way to start splitting text.
HTML
HTML specific characters
Splits text based on HTML-specific characters.
Markdown
Markdown specific characters
Splits text based on Markdown-specific characters.
Code
Code (Python, JS) specific characters
Splits text based on characters specific to coding languages. 15 different languages are available to choose from.
Token
Tokens
Splits text on tokens. There exist a few different ways to measure tokens.
Character
A user defined character
Splits text based on a user defined character. One of the simpler methods.
Evaluate text splitters[β](#evaluate-text-splitters "Direct link to Evaluate text splitters")
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
You can evaluate text splitters with the [Chunkviz utility](https://www.chunkviz.com/) created by `Greg Kamradt`. `Chunkviz` is a great tool for visualizing how your text splitter is working. It will show you how your text is being split up and help in tuning up the splitting parameters.
Other Document Transforms[β](#other-document-transforms "Direct link to Other Document Transforms")
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Text splitting is only one example of transformations that you may want to do on documents before passing them to an LLM. Head to [Integrations](/v0.1/docs/integrations/document_transformers/) for documentation on built-in document transformer integrations with 3rd-party tools.
Get started with text splitters[β](#get-started-with-text-splitters "Direct link to Get started with text splitters")
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The recommended TextSplitter is the `RecursiveCharacterTextSplitter`. This will split documents recursively by different characters - starting with `"\n\n"`, then `"\n"`, then `" "`. This is nice because it will try to keep all the semantically relevant content in the same place for as long as possible.
Important parameters to know here are `chunkSize` and `chunkOverlap`. `chunkSize` controls the max size (in terms of number of characters) of the final documents. `chunkOverlap` specifies how much overlap there should be between chunks. This is often helpful to make sure that the text isn't split weirdly. In the example below we set these values to be small (for illustration purposes), but in practice they default to `1000` and `200` respectively.
import { RecursiveCharacterTextSplitter } from "langchain/text_splitter";const text = `Hi.\n\nI'm Harrison.\n\nHow? Are? You?\nOkay then f f f f.This is a weird text to write, but gotta test the splittingggg some how.\n\nBye!\n\n-H.`;const splitter = new RecursiveCharacterTextSplitter({ chunkSize: 10, chunkOverlap: 1,});const output = await splitter.createDocuments([text]);
You'll note that in the above example we are splitting a raw text string and getting back a list of documents. We can also split documents directly.
import { Document } from "langchain/document";import { RecursiveCharacterTextSplitter } from "langchain/text_splitter";const text = `Hi.\n\nI'm Harrison.\n\nHow? Are? You?\nOkay then f f f f.This is a weird text to write, but gotta test the splittingggg some how.\n\nBye!\n\n-H.`;const splitter = new RecursiveCharacterTextSplitter({ chunkSize: 10, chunkOverlap: 1,});const docOutput = await splitter.splitDocuments([ new Document({ pageContent: text }),]);

Vector stores
=============
info
Head to [Integrations](/v0.1/docs/integrations/vectorstores/) for documentation on built-in integrations with vectorstore providers.
One of the most common ways to store and search over unstructured data is to embed it and store the resulting embedding vectors, and then at query time to embed the unstructured query and retrieve the embedding vectors that are 'most similar' to the embedded query. A vector store takes care of storing embedded data and performing vector search for you.
Get started[β](#get-started "Direct link to Get started")
---------------------------------------------------------
This walkthrough showcases basic functionality related to VectorStores. A key part of working with vector stores is creating the vector to put in them, which is usually created via embeddings. Therefore, it is recommended that you familiarize yourself with the [text embedding model](/v0.1/docs/modules/data_connection/text_embedding/) interfaces before diving into this.
This walkthrough uses a basic, unoptimized implementation called MemoryVectorStore that stores embeddings in-memory and does an exact, linear search for the most similar embeddings.

Here is the current base interface all vector stores share:
interface VectorStore { /** * Add more documents to an existing VectorStore. * Some providers support additional parameters, e.g. to associate custom ids * with added documents or to change the batch size of bulk inserts. * Returns an array of ids for the documents or nothing. */ addDocuments( documents: Document[], options?: Record<string, any> ): Promise<string[] | void>; /** * Search for the most similar documents to a query */ similaritySearch( query: string, k?: number, filter?: object | undefined ): Promise<Document[]>; /** * Search for the most similar documents to a query, * and return their similarity score */ similaritySearchWithScore( query: string, k = 4, filter: object | undefined = undefined ): Promise<[object, number][]>; /** * Turn a VectorStore into a Retriever */ asRetriever(k?: number): BaseRetriever; /** * Delete embedded documents from the vector store matching the passed in parameter. * Not supported by every provider. */ delete(params?: Record<string, any>): Promise<void>; /** * Advanced: Add more documents to an existing VectorStore, * when you already have their embeddings */ addVectors( vectors: number[][], documents: Document[], options?: Record<string, any> ): Promise<string[] | void>; /** * Advanced: Search for the most similar documents to a query, * when you already have the embedding of the query */ similaritySearchVectorWithScore( query: number[], k: number, filter?: object ): Promise<[Document, number][]>;}
You can create a vector store from a list of [Documents](https://api.js.langchain.com/classes/langchain_core_documents.Document.html), or from a list of texts and their corresponding metadata. You can also create a vector store from an existing index, the signature of this method depends on the vector store you're using, check the documentation of the vector store you're interested in.
abstract class BaseVectorStore implements VectorStore { static fromTexts( texts: string[], metadatas: object[] | object, embeddings: EmbeddingsInterface, dbConfig: Record<string, any> ): Promise<VectorStore>; static fromDocuments( docs: Document[], embeddings: EmbeddingsInterface, dbConfig: Record<string, any> ): Promise<VectorStore>;}
Which one to pick?[β](#which-one-to-pick "Direct link to Which one to pick?")
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Here's a quick guide to help you pick the right vector store for your use case:
* If you're after something that can just run inside your Node.js application, in-memory, without any other servers to stand up, then go for [HNSWLib](/v0.1/docs/integrations/vectorstores/hnswlib/), [Faiss](/v0.1/docs/integrations/vectorstores/faiss/), [LanceDB](/v0.1/docs/integrations/vectorstores/lancedb/) or [CloseVector](/v0.1/docs/integrations/vectorstores/closevector/)
* If you're looking for something that can run in-memory in browser-like environments, then go for [MemoryVectorStore](/v0.1/docs/integrations/vectorstores/memory/) or [CloseVector](/v0.1/docs/integrations/vectorstores/closevector/)
* If you come from Python and you were looking for something similar to FAISS, try [HNSWLib](/v0.1/docs/integrations/vectorstores/hnswlib/) or [Faiss](/v0.1/docs/integrations/vectorstores/faiss/)
* If you're looking for an open-source full-featured vector database that you can run locally in a docker container, then go for [Chroma](/v0.1/docs/integrations/vectorstores/chroma/)
* If you're looking for an open-source vector database that offers low-latency, local embedding of documents and supports apps on the edge, then go for [Zep](/v0.1/docs/integrations/vectorstores/zep/)
* If you're looking for an open-source production-ready vector database that you can run locally (in a docker container) or hosted in the cloud, then go for [Weaviate](/v0.1/docs/integrations/vectorstores/weaviate/).
* If you're using Supabase already then look at the [Supabase](/v0.1/docs/integrations/vectorstores/supabase/) vector store to use the same Postgres database for your embeddings too
* If you're looking for a production-ready vector store you don't have to worry about hosting yourself, then go for [Pinecone](/v0.1/docs/integrations/vectorstores/pinecone/)
* If you are already utilizing SingleStore, or if you find yourself in need of a distributed, high-performance database, you might want to consider the [SingleStore](/v0.1/docs/integrations/vectorstores/singlestore/) vector store.
* If you are looking for an online MPP (Massively Parallel Processing) data warehousing service, you might want to consider the [AnalyticDB](/v0.1/docs/integrations/vectorstores/analyticdb/) vector store.
* If you're in search of a cost-effective vector database that allows run vector search with SQL, look no further than [MyScale](/v0.1/docs/integrations/vectorstores/myscale/).
* If you're in search of a vector database that you can load from both the browser and server side, check out [CloseVector](/v0.1/docs/integrations/vectorstores/closevector/). It's a vector database that aims to be cross-platform.
* If you're looking for a scalable, open-source columnar database with excellent performance for analytical queries, then consider [ClickHouse](/v0.1/docs/integrations/vectorstores/clickhouse/).

Text embedding models
=====================
info
Head to [Integrations](/v0.1/docs/integrations/text_embedding/) for documentation on built-in integrations with text embedding providers.
The Embeddings class is a class designed for interfacing with text embedding models. There are lots of embedding model providers (OpenAI, Cohere, Hugging Face, etc) - this class is designed to provide a standard interface for all of them.
Embeddings create a vector representation of a piece of text. This is useful because it means we can think about text in the vector space, and do things like semantic search where we look for pieces of text that are most similar in the vector space.
The base Embeddings class in LangChain exposes two methods: one for embedding documents and one for embedding a query. The former takes as input multiple texts, while the latter takes a single text. The reason for having these as two separate methods is that some embedding providers have different embedding methods for documents (to be searched over) vs queries (the search query itself).
Get started[β](#get-started "Direct link to Get started")
---------------------------------------------------------
Embeddings can be used to create a numerical representation of textual data. This numerical representation is useful because it can be used to find similar documents.
Below is an example of how to use the OpenAI embeddings. Embeddings occasionally have different embedding methods for queries versus documents, so the embedding class exposes a `embedQuery` and `embedDocuments` method.

Retrievers
==========
A retriever is an interface that returns documents given an unstructured query. It is more general than a vector store. A retriever does not need to be able to store documents, only to return (or retrieve) them. Vector stores can be used as the backbone of a retriever, but there are other types of retrievers as well.
Retrievers accept a string query as input and return a list of `Document`'s as output.
Advanced Retrieval Types[β](#advanced-retrieval-types "Direct link to Advanced Retrieval Types")
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
LangChain provides several advanced retrieval types. A full list is below, along with the following information:
**Name**: Name of the retrieval algorithm.
**Index Type**: Which index type (if any) this relies on.
**Uses an LLM**: Whether this retrieval method uses an LLM.
**When to Use**: Our commentary on when you should considering using this retrieval method.
**Description**: Description of what this retrieval algorithm is doing.
Name
Index Type
Uses an LLM
When to Use
Description
[Vectorstore](/v0.1/docs/modules/data_connection/retrievers/vectorstore/)
Vectorstore
No
If you are just getting started and looking for something quick and easy.
This is the simplest method and the one that is easiest to get started with. It involves creating embeddings for each piece of text.
[ParentDocument](/v0.1/docs/modules/data_connection/retrievers/parent-document-retriever/)
Vectorstore + Document Store
No
If your pages have lots of smaller pieces of distinct information that are best indexed by themselves, but best retrieved all together.
This involves indexing multiple chunks for each document. Then you find the chunks that are most similar in embedding space, but you retrieve the whole parent document and return that (rather than individual chunks).
[Multi Vector](/v0.1/docs/modules/data_connection/retrievers/multi-vector-retriever/)
Vectorstore + Document Store
Sometimes during indexing
If you are able to extract information from documents that you think is more relevant to index than the text itself.
This involves creating multiple vectors for each document. Each vector could be created in a myriad of ways - examples include summaries of the text and hypothetical questions.
[Self Query](/v0.1/docs/modules/data_connection/retrievers/self_query/)
Vectorstore
Yes
If users are asking questions that are better answered by fetching documents based on metadata rather than similarity with the text.
This uses an LLM to transform user input into two things: (1) a string to look up semantically, (2) a metadata filter to go along with it. This is useful because oftentimes questions are about the METADATA of documents (not the content itself).
[Contextual Compression](/v0.1/docs/modules/data_connection/retrievers/contextual_compression/)
Any
Sometimes
If you are finding that your retrieved documents contain too much irrelevant information and are distracting the LLM.
This puts a post-processing step on top of another retriever and extracts only the most relevant information from retrieved documents. This can be done with embeddings or an LLM.
[Time-Weighted Vectorstore](/v0.1/docs/modules/data_connection/retrievers/time_weighted_vectorstore/)
Vectorstore
No
If you have timestamps associated with your documents, and you want to retrieve the most recent ones
This fetches documents based on a combination of semantic similarity (as in normal vector retrieval) and recency (looking at timestamps of indexed documents)
[Multi-Query Retriever](/v0.1/docs/modules/data_connection/retrievers/multi-query-retriever/)
Any
Yes
If users are asking questions that are complex and require multiple pieces of distinct information to respond
This uses an LLM to generate multiple queries from the original one. This is useful when the original query needs pieces of information about multiple topics to be properly answered. By generating multiple queries, we can then fetch documents for each of them.
[Third Party Integrations](/v0.1/docs/integrations/retrievers/)[β](#third-party-integrations "Direct link to third-party-integrations")
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
LangChain also integrates with many third-party retrieval services. For a full list of these, check out [this list](/v0.1/docs/integrations/retrievers/) of all integrations.
Get started[β](#get-started "Direct link to Get started")
---------------------------------------------------------
The public API of the `BaseRetriever` class in LangChain.js is as follows:
export abstract class BaseRetriever { abstract getRelevantDocuments(query: string): Promise<Document[]>;}
It's that simple! You can call `getRelevantDocuments` to retrieve documents relevant to a query, where "relevance" is defined by the specific retriever object you are calling.
Of course, we also help construct what we think useful Retrievers are. The main type of Retriever in LangChain is a vector store retriever. We will focus on that here.
**Note:** Before reading, it's important to understand [what a vector store is](/v0.1/docs/modules/data_connection/vectorstores/).
This example showcases question answering over documents. We have chosen this as the example for getting started because it nicely combines a lot of different elements (Text splitters, embeddings, vectorstores) and then also shows how to use them in a chain.
Question answering over documents consists of four steps:
1. Create an index
2. Create a Retriever from that index
3. Create a question answering chain
4. Ask questions!
Each of the steps has multiple sub steps and potential configurations, but we'll go through one common flow using HNSWLib, a local vector store. This assumes you're using Node, but you can swap in another integration if necessary.
First, install the required dependency:

Let's walk through what's happening here.
1. We first load a long text and split it into smaller documents using a text splitter. We then load those documents (which also embeds the documents using the passed `OpenAIEmbeddings` instance) into HNSWLib, our vector store, creating our index.
2. Though we can query the vector store directly, we convert the vector store into a retriever to return retrieved documents in the right format for the question answering chain.
3. We initialize a retrieval chain, which we'll call later in step 4.
4. We ask questions!
See the individual sections for deeper dives on specific retrievers, or this section to learn how to [create your own custom retriever over any data source](/v0.1/docs/modules/data_connection/retrievers/custom/).

SalesGPT - Your Context-Aware AI Sales Assistant With Knowledge Base
====================================================================
This notebook demonstrates an implementation of a **Context-Aware** AI Sales agent with a Product Knowledge Base.
This notebook was originally published at [filipmichalsky/SalesGPT](https://github.com/filip-michalsky/SalesGPT) by [@FilipMichalsky](https://twitter.com/FilipMichalsky).- A chain responsible for prioritising tasks
SalesGPT is context-aware, which means it can understand what section of a sales conversation it is in and act accordingly.
As such, this agent can have a natural sales conversation with a prospect and behaves based on the conversation stage. Hence, this notebook demonstrates how we can use AI to automate sales development representatives activites, such as outbound sales calls.
Additionally, the AI Sales agent has access to tools, which allow it to interact with other systems.
Here, we show how the AI Sales Agent can use a **Product Knowledge Base** to speak about a particular's company offerings, hence increasing relevance and reducing hallucinations.
We leverage the [`langchain`](https://github.com/langchain-ai/langchainjs) library in this implementation, specifically [Custom Agent Configuration](https://python.langchain.com/docs/modules/agents/how_to/custom_agent) and are inspired by [BabyAGI](https://github.com/yoheinakajima/babyagi) architecture.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
### SalesGPT architecture[β](#salesgpt-architecture "Direct link to SalesGPT architecture")
1. Seed the SalesGPT agent
2. Run Sales Agent to decide what to do:
a) Use a tool, such as look up Product Information in a Knowledge Base
b) Output a response to a user
3. Run Sales Stage Recognition Agent to recognize which stage is the sales agent at and adjust their behaviour accordingly.
Here is the schematic of the architecture:

![intro.png](/v0.1/assets/images/sales_gpt-1341a05f5f6271be5f5bde2c85c0b223.png)
### Sales conversation stages[β](#sales-conversation-stages "Direct link to Sales conversation stages")
The agent employs an assistant who keeps it in check as in what stage of the conversation it is in. These stages were generated by ChatGPT and can be easily modified to fit other use cases or modes of conversation.
1. Introduction: Start the conversation by introducing yourself and your company. Be polite and respectful while keeping the tone of the conversation professional.
2. Qualification: Qualify the prospect by confirming if they are the right person to talk to regarding your product/service. Ensure that they have the authority to make purchasing decisions.
3. Proposition: Briefly explain how your product/service can benefit the prospect. Focus on the unique selling points and value proposition of your product/service that sets it apart from competitors.
4. Needs analysis: Ask open-ended questions to uncover the prospect's needs and pain points. Listen carefully to their responses and take notes
5. Solution presentation: Based on the prospect's needs, present your product/service as the solution that can address their pain points.
6. Objection handling: Address any objections that the prospect may have regarding your product/service. Be prepared to provide evidence or testimonials to support your claims.
7. Close: Ask for the sale by proposing a next step. This could be a demo, a trial or a meeting with decision-makers. Ensure to summarize what has been discussed and reiterate the benefits.
8. End conversation: It's time to end the call as there is nothing else to be said.

We have the EcoGreen Hybrid Latex Mattress, which is made from 100% natural latex harvested from eco-friendly plantations. The Plush Serenity Bamboo Mattress features a layer of plush, adaptive foam and a base of high-resilience support foam, with a bamboo-infused top layer. The Luxury Cloud-Comfort Memory Foam Mattress has an innovative, temperature-sensitive memory foam layer and a high-density foam base with cooling gel-infused particles. Finally, the Classic Harmony Spring Mattress has a robust inner spring construction and layers of plush padding, with a quilted top layer and a natural cotton cover. Is there anything specific you'd like to know about these materials?

AutoGPT
=======
info
Original Repo: [https://github.com/Significant-Gravitas/Auto-GPT](https://github.com/Significant-Gravitas/Auto-GPT)
AutoGPT is a custom agent that uses long-term memory along with a prompt designed for independent work (ie. without asking user input) to perform tasks.
Isomorphic Example[β](#isomorphic-example "Direct link to Isomorphic Example")
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In this example we use AutoGPT to predict the weather for a given location. This example is designed to run in all JS environments, including the browser.

BabyAGI
=======
info
Original Repo: [https://github.com/yoheinakajima/babyagi](https://github.com/yoheinakajima/babyagi)
BabyAGI is made up of 3 components:
* A chain responsible for creating tasks
* A chain responsible for prioritising tasks
* A chain responsible for executing tasks
These chains are executed in sequence until the task list is empty or the maximum number of iterations is reached.
Simple Example[β](#simple-example "Direct link to Simple Example")
------------------------------------------------------------------
In this example we use BabyAGI directly without any tools. You'll see this results in successfully creating a list of tasks but when it comes to executing the tasks we do not get concrete results. This is because we have not provided any tools to the BabyAGI. We'll see how to do that in the next example.

Example with Tools[β](#example-with-tools "Direct link to Example with Tools")
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In this next example we replace the execution chain with a custom agent with a Search tool. This gives BabyAGI the ability to use real-world data when executing tasks, which makes it much more powerful. You can add additional tools to give it more capabilities.
import { BabyAGI } from "langchain/experimental/babyagi";import { MemoryVectorStore } from "langchain/vectorstores/memory";import { OpenAIEmbeddings, OpenAI } from "@langchain/openai";import { LLMChain } from "langchain/chains";import { ChainTool } from "langchain/tools";import { initializeAgentExecutorWithOptions } from "langchain/agents";import { PromptTemplate } from "@langchain/core/prompts";import { Tool } from "@langchain/core/tools";import { SerpAPI } from "@langchain/community/tools/serpapi";// First, we create a custom agent which will serve as execution chain.const todoPrompt = PromptTemplate.fromTemplate( "You are a planner who is an expert at coming up with a todo list for a given objective. Come up with a todo list for this objective: {objective}");const tools: Tool[] = [ new SerpAPI(process.env.SERPAPI_API_KEY, { location: "San Francisco,California,United States", hl: "en", gl: "us", }), new ChainTool({ name: "TODO", chain: new LLMChain({ llm: new OpenAI({ temperature: 0 }), prompt: todoPrompt, }), description: "useful for when you need to come up with todo lists.

Take into account these previously completed tasks: {context}.`, suffix: `Question: {task}{agent_scratchpad}`, inputVariables: ["objective", "task", "context", "agent_scratchpad"], }, });const vectorStore = new MemoryVectorStore(new OpenAIEmbeddings());// Then, we create a BabyAGI instance.const babyAGI = BabyAGI.fromLLM({ llm: new OpenAI({ temperature: 0 }), executionChain: agentExecutor, // an agent executor is a chain vectorstore: vectorStore, maxIterations: 10,});await babyAGI.invoke({ objective: "Write a short weather report for SF today",});/******TASK LIST*****1: Make a todo list*****NEXT TASK*****1: Make a todo list*****TASK RESULT*****Today in San Francisco, the weather is sunny with a temperature of 70 degrees Fahrenheit, light winds, and low humidity.

Violation of Expectations Chain
===============================
This page demonstrates how to use the `ViolationOfExpectationsChain`. This chain extracts insights from chat conversations by comparing the differences between an LLM's prediction of the next message in a conversation and the user's mental state against the actual next message, and is intended to provide a form of reflection for long-term memory.
The `ViolationOfExpectationsChain` was implemented using the results of a paper by [Plastic Labs](https://plasticlabs.ai/). Their paper, `Violation of Expectation via Metacognitive Prompting Reduces Theory of Mind Prediction Error in Large Language Models` can be found [here](https://arxiv.org/abs/2310.06983).

I feel like 1-2 hours is never enough." ), new AIMessage( "The concept of 'adequate time' varies. Have you tried different formats of introspection, such as morning pages or long-form writing, to see if they make the process more efficient?" ), new HumanMessage( "I have tried journaling but never consistently. Sometimes it feels like writing doesn't capture everything." ), new AIMessage( "Writing has its limits. What about other mediums like digital art, or interactive journal apps with dynamic prompts that dig deeper? Even coding a personal project can be a form of self-discovery." ), new HumanMessage( "That's an interesting idea. I've never thought about coding as a form of self-discovery." ), new AIMessage( "Since you're comfortable with code, consider building a tool to log and analyze your emotional state, thoughts, or personal growth metrics. It merges skill with introspection, makes the data quantifiable." ), new HumanMessage( "The idea of quantifying emotions and personal growth is fascinating. But I wonder how much it can really capture the 'dark zone' within us." ), new AIMessage( "Good point. The 'dark zone' isn't fully quantifiable. But a tool could serve as a scaffold to explore those areas. It gives a structured approach to an unstructured problem." ), new HumanMessage( "You might be onto something. A structured approach could help unearth patterns or triggers I hadn't noticed." ), new AIMessage( "Exactly. It's about creating a framework to understand what can't easily be understood. Then you can allocate those 5+ hours more effectively, targeting areas that your data flags." ),];// Instantiate with an empty string to start, since we have no data yet.const vectorStore = await HNSWLib.fromTexts( [" "], [{ id: 1 }], new OpenAIEmbeddings());const retriever = vectorStore.asRetriever();// Instantiate the LLM,const llm = new ChatOpenAI({ model: "gpt-4",});// And the chain.const voeChain = ViolationOfExpectationsChain.fromLLM(llm, retriever);// Requires an input key of "chat_history" with an array of messages.const result = await voeChain.invoke({ chat_history: dummyMessages,});console.log({ result,});/** * Output:{ result: [ 'The user has experience with coding and has tried journaling before, but struggles with maintaining consistency and fully expressing their thoughts and feelings through writing.', 'The user shows a thoughtful approach towards new concepts and is willing to engage with and contemplate novel ideas before making a decision.

Explanation[β](#explanation "Direct link to Explanation")
---------------------------------------------------------
Now let's go over everything the chain is doing, step by step.
Under the hood, the `ViolationOfExpectationsChain` performs four main steps:
### Step 1. Predict the user's next message using only the chat history.[β](#step-1-predict-the-users-next-message-using-only-the-chat-history "Direct link to Step 1. Predict the user's next message using only the chat history.")
The LLM is tasked with generating three key pieces of information:
* Concise reasoning about the users internal mental state.
* A prediction on how they will respond to the AI's most recent message.
* A concise list of any additional insights that would be useful to improve prediction. Once the LLM response is returned, we query our retriever with the insights, mapping over all. From each result we extract the first retrieved document, and return it. Then, all retrieved documents and generated insights are sorted to remove duplicates, and returned.
### Step 2. Generate prediction violations.[β](#step-2-generate-prediction-violations "Direct link to Step 2. Generate prediction violations.")
Using the results from step 1, we query the LLM to generate the following:
* How exactly was the original prediction violated? Which parts were wrong? State the exact differences.
* If there were errors with the prediction, what were they and why? We pass the LLM our predicted response and generated (along with any retrieved) insights from step 1, and the actual response from the user.
Once we have the difference between the predicted and actual response, we can move on to step 3.
### Step 3. Regenerate the prediction.[β](#step-3-regenerate-the-prediction "Direct link to Step 3. Regenerate the prediction.")
Using the original prediction, key insights and the differences between the actual response and our prediction, we can generate a new more accurate prediction. These predictions will help us in the next step to generate an insight that isn't just parts of the user's conversation verbatim.
### Step 4. Generate an insight.[β](#step-4-generate-an-insight "Direct link to Step 4. Generate an insight.")
Lastly, we prompt the LLM to generate one concise insight given the following context:
* Ways in which our original prediction was violated.
* Our generated revised prediction (step 3)
* The actual response from the user. Given these three data points, we prompt the LLM to return one fact relevant to the specific user response. A key point here is giving it the ways in which our original prediction was violated. This list contains the exact differences --and often specific facts themselves-- between the predicted and actual response.
We perform these steps on every human message, so if you have a conversation with 10 messages (5 human 5 AI), you'll get 5 insights. The list of messages are chunked by iterating over the entire chat history, stopping at an AI message and returning it, along with all messages that preceded it.
Once our `.call({...})` method returns the array of insights, we can save them to our vector store. Later, we can retrieve them in future insight generations, or for other reasons like insightful context in a chat bot.

All functionality related to Anthropic models.
[Anthropic](https://www.anthropic.com/) is an AI safety and research company, and is the creator of Claude. This page covers all integrations between Anthropic models and LangChain.
Prompting Best Practices[β](#prompting-best-practices "Direct link to Prompting Best Practices")
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Anthropic models have several prompting best practices compared to OpenAI models.
**System Messages may only be the first message**
Anthropic models require any system messages to be the first one in your prompts.
`ChatAnthropic`[β](#chatanthropic "Direct link to chatanthropic")
-----------------------------------------------------------------
`ChatAnthropic` is a subclass of LangChain's `ChatModel`, meaning it works best with `ChatPromptTemplate`. You can import this wrapper with the following code:
tip
See [this section for general instructions on installing integration packages](/v0.1/docs/get_started/installation/#installing-integration-packages).
* npm
* Yarn
* pnpm
npm install @langchain/anthropic
yarn add @langchain/anthropic
pnpm add @langchain/anthropic
import { ChatAnthropic } from "@langchain/anthropic";const model = new ChatAnthropic({});
When working with ChatModels, it is preferred that you design your prompts as `ChatPromptTemplate`s. Here is an example below of doing that:
import { ChatPromptTemplate } from "langchain/prompts";const prompt = ChatPromptTemplate.fromMessages([ ["system", "You are a helpful chatbot"], ["human", "Tell me a joke about {topic}"],]);
You can then use this in a chain as follows:
const chain = prompt.pipe(model);await chain.invoke({ topic: "bears" });
See the [chat model integration page](/v0.1/docs/integrations/chat/anthropic/) for more examples, including multimodal inputs.

> [Azure Blob Storage](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/storage/blobs/storage-blobs-introduction) is Microsoft's object storage solution for the cloud. Blob Storage is optimized for storing massive amounts of unstructured data. Unstructured data is data that doesn't adhere to a particular data model or definition, such as text or binary data.
> [Azure Files](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/storage/files/storage-files-introduction) offers fully managed file shares in the cloud that are accessible via the industry standard Server Message Block (`SMB`) protocol, Network File System (`NFS`) protocol, and `Azure Files REST API`. `Azure Files` are based on the `Azure Blob Storage`.
`Azure Blob Storage` is designed for:
* Serving images or documents directly to a browser.
* Storing files for distributed access.
* Streaming video and audio.
* Writing to log files.
* Storing data for backup and restore, disaster recovery, and archiving.
* Storing data for analysis by an on-premises or Azure-hosted service.
* npm
* Yarn
* pnpm

LLMs
====
Features (natively supported)[β](#features-natively-supported "Direct link to Features (natively supported)")
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
All LLMs implement the Runnable interface, which comes with default implementations of all methods, ie. `invoke`, `batch`, `stream`, `map`. This gives all LLMs basic support for invoking, streaming, batching and mapping requests, which by default is implemented as below:
* _Streaming_ support defaults to returning an `AsyncIterator` of a single value, the final result returned by the underlying LLM provider. This obviously doesn't give you token-by-token streaming, which requires native support from the LLM provider, but ensures your code that expects an iterator of tokens can work for any of our LLM integrations.
* _Batch_ support defaults to calling the underlying LLM in parallel for each input. The concurrency can be controlled with the `maxConcurrency` key in `RunnableConfig`.
* _Map_ support defaults to calling `.invoke` across all instances of the array which it was called on.
Each LLM integration can optionally provide native implementations for invoke, streaming or batch, which, for providers that support it, can be more efficient. The table shows, for each integration, which features have been implemented with native support.

Chat models
===========
Features (natively supported)[β](#features-natively-supported "Direct link to Features (natively supported)")
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
All ChatModels implement the Runnable interface, which comes with default implementations of all methods, ie. `invoke`, `batch`, `stream`. This gives all ChatModels basic support for invoking, streaming and batching, which by default is implemented as below:
* _Streaming_ support defaults to returning an `AsyncIterator` of a single value, the final result returned by the underlying ChatModel provider. This obviously doesn't give you token-by-token streaming, which requires native support from the ChatModel provider, but ensures your code that expects an iterator of tokens can work for any of our ChatModel integrations.
* _Batch_ support defaults to calling the underlying ChatModel in parallel for each input. The concurrency can be controlled with the `maxConcurrency` key in `RunnableConfig`.
* _Map_ support defaults to calling `.invoke` across all instances of the array which it was called on.
Each ChatModel integration can optionally provide native implementations to truly enable invoke, streaming or batching requests.
Additionally, some chat models support additional ways of guaranteeing structure in their outputs by allowing you to pass in a defined schema. [Function calling and parallel function calling](/v0.1/docs/modules/model_io/chat/function_calling/) (tool calling) are two common ones, and those capabilities allow you to use the chat model as the LLM in [certain types of agents](/v0.1/docs/modules/agents/agent_types/). Some models in LangChain have also implemented a `withStructuredOutput()` method that unifies many of these different ways of constraining output to a schema.
The table shows, for each integration, which features have been implemented with native support. Yellow circles (π‘) indicates partial support - for example, if the model supports tool calling but not tool messages for agents.

ποΈ OpenAI functions metadata tagger
------------------------------------
It can often be useful to tag ingested documents with structured metadata, such as the title, tone, or length of a document, to allow for more targeted similarity search later. However, for large numbers of documents, performing this labelling process manually can be tedious.

Stores
======
Storing data in key value format is quick and efficient, and can be a powerful tool for LLM applications. The `BaseStore` class provides a simple interface for getting, setting, deleting and iterating over lists of key value pairs.
The public API of `BaseStore` in LangChain JS offers four main methods:
abstract mget(keys: K[]): Promise<(V | undefined)[]>;abstract mset(keyValuePairs: [K, V][]): Promise<void>;abstract mdelete(keys: K[]): Promise<void>;abstract yieldKeys(prefix?: string): AsyncGenerator<K | string>;
The `m` prefix stands for multiple, and indicates that these methods can be used to get, set and delete multiple key value pairs at once. The `yieldKeys` method is a generator function that can be used to iterate over all keys in the store, or all keys with a given prefix.
It's that simple!
So far LangChain.js has two base integrations for `BaseStore`:
* [`InMemoryStore`](/v0.1/docs/integrations/stores/in_memory/)
* [`LocalFileStore`](/v0.1/docs/integrations/stores/file_system/) (Node.js only)
Use Cases[β](#use-cases "Direct link to Use Cases")
---------------------------------------------------
### Chat history[β](#chat-history "Direct link to Chat history")
If you're building web apps with chat, the `BaseStore` family of integrations can come in very handy for storing and retrieving chat history.
### Caching[β](#caching "Direct link to Caching")
The `BaseStore` family can be a useful alternative to our other caching integrations. For example the [`LocalFileStore`](/v0.1/docs/integrations/stores/file_system/) allows for persisting data through the file system. It also is incredibly fast, so your users will be able to access cached data in a snap.
See the individual sections for deeper dives on specific storage providers.
Reading Data[β](#reading-data "Direct link to Reading Data")
------------------------------------------------------------
### In Memory[β](#in-memory "Direct link to In Memory")
Reading data is simple with KV stores. Below is an example using the [`InMemoryStore`](/v0.1/docs/integrations/stores/in_memory/) and the `.mget()` method. We'll also set our generic value type to `string` so we can have type safety setting our strings.
Import the [`InMemoryStore`](/v0.1/docs/integrations/stores/in_memory/) class.
import { InMemoryStore } from "langchain/storage/in_memory";
Instantiate a new instance and pass `string` as our generic for the value type.
const store = new InMemoryStore<string>();
Next we can call `.mset()` to write multiple values at once.
const data: [string, string][] = [ ["key1", "value1"], ["key2", "value2"],];await store.mset(data);
Finally, call the `.mget()` method to retrieve the values from our store.
const data = await store.mget(["key1", "key2"]);console.log(data);/** * ["value1", "value2"] */
### File System[β](#file-system "Direct link to File System")
When using the file system integration we need to instantiate via the `fromPath` method. This is required because it needs to preform checks to ensure the directory exists and is readable/writable. You also must use a directory when using [`LocalFileStore`](/v0.1/docs/integrations/stores/file_system/) because each entry is stored as a unique file in the directory.
import { LocalFileStore } from "langchain/storage/file_system";
const pathToStore = "./my-store-directory";const store = await LocalFileStore.fromPath(pathToStore);
To do this we can define an encoder for initially setting our data, and a decoder for when we retrieve data.
const encoder = new TextEncoder();const decoder = new TextDecoder();
const data: [string, Uint8Array][] = [ ["key1", encoder.encode(new Date().toDateString())], ["key2", encoder.encode(new Date().toDateString())],];await store.mset(data);
const data = await store.mget(["key1", "key2"]);console.log(data.map((v) => decoder.decode(v)));/** * [ 'Wed Jan 03 2024', 'Wed Jan 03 2024' ] */
Writing Data[β](#writing-data "Direct link to Writing Data")
------------------------------------------------------------
### In Memory[β](#in-memory-1 "Direct link to In Memory")
Writing data is simple with KV stores. Below is an example using the [`InMemoryStore`](/v0.1/docs/integrations/stores/in_memory/) and the `.mset()` method. We'll also set our generic value type to `Date` so we can have type safety setting our dates.
Import the [`InMemoryStore`](/v0.1/docs/integrations/stores/in_memory/) class.
import { InMemoryStore } from "langchain/storage/in_memory";
Instantiate a new instance and pass `Date` as our generic for the value type.
const store = new InMemoryStore<Date>();
Finally we can call `.mset()` to write multiple values at once.
const data: [string, Date][] = [ ["date1", new Date()], ["date2", new Date()],];await store.mset(data);
### File System[β](#file-system-1 "Direct link to File System")
When using the file system integration we need to instantiate via the `fromPath` method. This is required because it needs to preform checks to ensure the directory exists and is readable/writable. You also must use a directory when using [`LocalFileStore`](/v0.1/docs/integrations/stores/file_system/) because each entry is stored as a unique file in the directory.
import { LocalFileStore } from "langchain/storage/file_system";
const pathToStore = "./my-store-directory";const store = await LocalFileStore.fromPath(pathToStore);
When defining our data we must convert the values to `Uint8Array` because the file system integration only supports binary data.
To do this we can define an encoder for initially setting our data, and a decoder for when we retrieve data.
const encoder = new TextEncoder();const decoder = new TextDecoder();
const data: [string, Uint8Array][] = [ ["key1", encoder.encode(new Date().toDateString())], ["key2", encoder.encode(new Date().toDateString())],];await store.mset(data);

Webpages, with Cheerio
======================
This example goes over how to load data from webpages using Cheerio. One document will be created for each webpage.
Cheerio is a fast and lightweight library that allows you to parse and traverse HTML documents using a jQuery-like syntax. You can use Cheerio to extract data from web pages, without having to render them in a browser.
However, Cheerio does not simulate a web browser, so it cannot execute JavaScript code on the page. This means that it cannot extract data from dynamic web pages that require JavaScript to render. To do that, you can use the [`PlaywrightWebBaseLoader`](/v0.1/docs/integrations/document_loaders/web_loaders/web_playwright/) or [`PuppeteerWebBaseLoader`](/v0.1/docs/integrations/document_loaders/web_loaders/web_puppeteer/) instead.

`MemoryVectorStore`
===================
MemoryVectorStore is an in-memory, ephemeral vectorstore that stores embeddings in-memory and does an exact, linear search for the most similar embeddings. The default similarity metric is cosine similarity, but can be changed to any of the similarity metrics supported by [ml-distance](https://mljs.github.io/distance/modules/similarity.html).

Manipulating outputs/inputs[β](#manipulating-outputsinputs "Direct link to Manipulating outputs/inputs")
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Maps can be useful for manipulating the output of one Runnable to match the input format of the next Runnable in a sequence.
Note below that the object within the `RunnableSequence.from()` call is automatically coerced into a runnable map. All keys of the object must have values that are runnables or can be themselves coerced to runnables (functions to `RunnableLambda`s or objects to `RunnableMap`s). This coercion will also occur when composing chains via the `.pipe()` method.
import { CohereEmbeddings } from "@langchain/cohere";import { HNSWLib } from "@langchain/community/vectorstores/hnswlib";import { PromptTemplate } from "@langchain/core/prompts";import { StringOutputParser } from "@langchain/core/output_parsers";import { RunnablePassthrough, RunnableSequence,} from "@langchain/core/runnables";import { Document } from "@langchain/core/documents";import { ChatAnthropic } from "@langchain/anthropic";const model = new ChatAnthropic();const vectorstore = await HNSWLib.fromDocuments( [{ pageContent: "mitochondria is the powerhouse of the cell", metadata: {} }], new CohereEmbeddings());const retriever = vectorstore.asRetriever();const template = `Answer the question based only on the following context:{context}Question: {question}`;const prompt = PromptTemplate.fromTemplate(template);const formatDocs = (docs: Document[]) => docs.map((doc) => doc.pageContent);const retrievalChain = RunnableSequence.from([ { context: retriever.pipe(formatDocs), question: new RunnablePassthrough() }, prompt, model, new StringOutputParser(),]);const result = await retrievalChain.invoke( "what is the powerhouse of the cell?");console.log(result);/* Based on the given context, the powerhouse of the cell is mitochondria.*/

Here the input to prompt is expected to be a map with keys "context" and "question". The user input is just the question. So we need to get the context using our retriever and passthrough the user input under the "question" key.

On this page
Add message history (memory)
============================
The `RunnableWithMessageHistory` let's us add message history to certain types of chains.
Specifically, it can be used for any Runnable that takes as input one of
* a sequence of `BaseMessage`
* a dict with a key that takes a sequence of `BaseMessage`
* a dict with a key that takes the latest message(s) as a string or sequence of `BaseMessage`, and a separate key that takes historical messages
And returns as output one of
* a string that can be treated as the contents of an `AIMessage`
* a sequence of `BaseMessage`
* a dict with a key that contains a sequence of `BaseMessage`
Let's take a look at some examples to see how it works.
Setup[β](#setup "Direct link to Setup")
---------------------------------------
We'll use Upstash to store our chat message histories and Anthropic's claude-2 model so we'll need to install the following dependencies:
* npm
* Yarn
* pnpm
npm install @langchain/anthropic @langchain/community @upstash/redis
yarn add @langchain/anthropic @langchain/community @upstash/redis
pnpm add @langchain/anthropic @langchain/community @upstash/redis
You'll need to set environment variables for `ANTHROPIC_API_KEY` and grab your Upstash REST url and secret token.
### [LangSmith](https://smith.langchain.com/)[β](#langsmith "Direct link to langsmith")
LangSmith is especially useful for something like message history injection, where it can be hard to otherwise understand what the inputs are to various parts of the chain.
Note that LangSmith is not needed, but it is helpful. If you do want to use LangSmith, after you sign up at the link above, make sure to uncoment the below and set your environment variables to start logging traces:
export LANGCHAIN_TRACING_V2="true"export LANGCHAIN_API_KEY="<your-api-key>"
Example: Dict input, message output[β](#example-dict-input-message-output "Direct link to Example: Dict input, message output")
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Let's create a simple chain that takes a dict as input and returns a BaseMessage.
In this case the `"question"` key in the input represents our input message, and the `"history"` key is where our historical messages will be injected.
import { ChatPromptTemplate, MessagesPlaceholder,} from "@langchain/core/prompts";import { ChatAnthropic } from "@langchain/anthropic";import { UpstashRedisChatMessageHistory } from "@langchain/community/stores/message/upstash_redis";// For demos, you can also use an in-memory store:// import { ChatMessageHistory } from "langchain/stores/message/in_memory";const prompt = ChatPromptTemplate.fromMessages([ ["system", "You're an assistant who's good at {ability}"], new MessagesPlaceholder("history"), ["human", "{question}"],]);const chain = prompt.pipe( new ChatAnthropic({ model: "claude-3-sonnet-20240229" }));
### Adding message history[β](#adding-message-history "Direct link to Adding message history")
To add message history to our original chain we wrap it in the `RunnableWithMessageHistory` class.
Crucially, we also need to define a method that takes a `sessionId` string and based on it returns a `BaseChatMessageHistory`. Given the same input, this method should return an equivalent output.
In this case we'll also want to specify `inputMessagesKey` (the key to be treated as the latest input message) and `historyMessagesKey` (the key to add historical messages to).
import { RunnableWithMessageHistory } from "@langchain/core/runnables";const chainWithHistory = new RunnableWithMessageHistory({ runnable: chain, getMessageHistory: (sessionId) => new UpstashRedisChatMessageHistory({ sessionId, config: { url: process.env.UPSTASH_REDIS_REST_URL!, token: process.env.UPSTASH_REDIS_REST_TOKEN!, }, }), inputMessagesKey: "question", historyMessagesKey: "history",});
Invoking with config[β](#invoking-with-config "Direct link to Invoking with config")
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Whenever we call our chain with message history, we need to include an additional config object that contains the `session_id`
{ configurable: { sessionId: "<SESSION_ID>"; }}
Given the same configuration, our chain should be pulling from the same chat message history.
const result = await chainWithHistory.invoke( { ability: "math", question: "What does cosine mean?", }, { configurable: { sessionId: "foobarbaz", }, });console.log(result);/* AIMessage { content: 'Cosine refers to one of the basic trigonometric functions. Specifically:\n' + '\n' + '- Cosine is one of the three main trigonometric functions, along with sine and tangent. It is often abbreviated as cos.\n' + '\n' + '- For a right triangle with sides a, b, and c (where c is the hypotenuse), cosine represents the ratio of the length of the adjacent side (a) to the length of the hypotenuse (c).

tip
[Langsmith trace](https://smith.langchain.com/public/50377a89-d0b8-413b-8cd7-8e6618835e00/r)
Looking at the Langsmith trace for the second call, we can see that when constructing the prompt, a "history" variable has been injected which is a list of two messages (our first input and first output).

Add message history (memory)
============================
The `RunnableWithMessageHistory` let's us add message history to certain types of chains.
Specifically, it can be used for any Runnable that takes as input one of
* a list of `BaseMessage`
* an object with a key that takes a list of `BaseMessage`
* an object with a key that takes the latest message(s) as a string or list of `BaseMessage`, and a separate key that takes historical messages
And returns as output one of
* a string that can be treated as the contents of an `AIMessage`
* a list of `BaseMessage`
* an object with a key that contains a list of `BaseMessage`
Let's take a look at some examples to see how it works.

Pass config through the constructor[β](#pass-config-through-the-constructor "Direct link to Pass config through the constructor")
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
You don't always have to pass the `config` object through the `invoke` method. `RunnableWithMessageHistory` supports passing it through the constructor as well.
To do this, the only change you need to make is remove the second arg (or just the `configurable` key from the second arg) from the `invoke` method, and add it in through the `config` key in the constructor.
This is a simple example building on top of what we have above:
import { ChatOpenAI } from "@langchain/openai";import { ChatPromptTemplate, MessagesPlaceholder,} from "@langchain/core/prompts";import { RunnableConfig, RunnableWithMessageHistory,} from "@langchain/core/runnables";import { ChatMessageHistory } from "@langchain/community/stores/message/in_memory";// Construct your runnable with a prompt and chat model.const model = new ChatOpenAI({});const prompt = ChatPromptTemplate.fromMessages([ ["ai", "You are a helpful assistant"], new MessagesPlaceholder("history"), ["human", "{input}"],]);const runnable = prompt.pipe(model);const messageHistory = new ChatMessageHistory();// Define a RunnableConfig object, with a `configurable` key.const config: RunnableConfig = { configurable: { sessionId: "1" } };const withHistory = new RunnableWithMessageHistory({ runnable, getMessageHistory: (_sessionId: string) => messageHistory, inputMessagesKey: "input", historyMessagesKey: "history", // Passing config through here instead of through the invoke method config,});const output = await withHistory.invoke({ input: "Hello there, I'm Archibald!",});console.log("output:", output);/**output: AIMessage { lc_namespace: [ 'langchain_core', 'messages' ], content: 'Hello, Archibald!

Prompt + LLM
============
One of the most foundational Expression Language compositions is taking:
`PromptTemplate` / `ChatPromptTemplate` -> `LLM` / `ChatModel` -> `OutputParser`
Almost all other chains you build will use this building block.
Interactive tutorial
The screencast below interactively walks through a simple prompt template + LLM chain. You can update and run the code as it's being written in the video!
PromptTemplate + LLM[β](#prompttemplate--llm "Direct link to PromptTemplate + LLM")
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A PromptTemplate -> LLM is a core chain that is used in most other larger chains/systems.

We can also add in an output parser to conveniently transform the raw LLM/ChatModel output into a consistent string format:

The `RunnableSequence` above coerces the object into a `RunnableMap`. Each property in the map receives the same parameters. The runnable or function set as the value of that property is invoked with those parameters, and the return value populates an object which is then passed onto the next runnable in the sequence.
Passthroughs[β](#passthroughs "Direct link to Passthroughs")
------------------------------------------------------------
In the example above, we use a passthrough in a runnable map to pass along original input variables to future steps in the chain.
In general, how exactly you do this depends on what exactly the input is:
* If the original input was a string, then you likely just want to pass along the string. This can be done with `RunnablePassthrough`. For an example of this, see the retrieval chain in the [RAG section](/v0.1/docs/expression_language/cookbook/retrieval/) of this cookbook.
* If the original input was an object, then you likely want to pass along specific keys. For this, you can use an arrow function that takes the object as input and extracts the desired key, as shown above.

Let's now look at adding in a retrieval step to a prompt and an LLM, which adds up to a "retrieval-augmented generation" chain:

Conversational Retrieval Chain[β](#conversational-retrieval-chain "Direct link to Conversational Retrieval Chain")
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Because `RunnableSequence.from` and `runnable.pipe` both accept runnable-like objects, including single-argument functions, we can add in conversation history via a formatting function. This allows us to recreate the popular `ConversationalRetrievalQAChain` to "chat with data":

Querying a SQL DB
=================
We can replicate our SQLDatabaseChain with Runnables.
Setup[β](#setup "Direct link to Setup")
---------------------------------------
We'll need the Chinook sample DB for this example.
First install `typeorm`:
* npm
* Yarn
* pnpm
npm install typeorm
yarn add typeorm
pnpm add typeorm
Then install the dependencies needed for your database. For example, for SQLite:
* npm
* Yarn
* pnpm
npm install sqlite3
yarn add sqlite3
pnpm add sqlite3
For other databases see [https://typeorm.io/#installation](https://typeorm.io/#installation).
Finally follow the instructions on [https://database.guide/2-sample-databases-sqlite/](https://database.guide/2-sample-databases-sqlite/) to get the sample database for this example.

Agents
======
You can pass a Runnable into an agent.
Building an agent from a runnable usually involves a few things:
1. Data processing for the intermediate steps (`agent_scratchpad`). These need to represented in a way that the language model can recognize them. This should be pretty tightly coupled to the instructions in the prompt. For this reason, in the below example with an XML agent, we use the built in util `formatXml` to format the steps as XML.
2. The prompt itself. Below, this is the default XML agent prompt, which includes variables for the tool list and user question. It also contains examples of inputs and outputs for the agent to learn from.
3. The model, complete with stop tokens if needed (in our case, needed).
4. The output parser - should be in sync with how the prompt specifies things to be formatted. In our case, we'll continue with the theme of XML and use the default `XMLAgentOutputParser`

// Define the model with stop tokens.const model = new ChatAnthropic({ temperature: 0 }).bind({ stop: ["</tool_input>", "</final_answer>"],});
For this example we'll define a custom tool for simplicity. You may use our built in tools, or define tools yourself, following the format you see below.

Help the user answer any questions.You have access to the following tools:{tools}In order to use a tool, you can use <tool></tool> and <tool_input></tool_input> tags. \You will then get back a response in the form <observation></observation>For example, if you have a tool called 'search' that could run a google search, in order to search for the weather in SF you would respond:<tool>search</tool><tool_input>weather in SF</tool_input><observation>64 degrees</observation>When you are done, respond with a final answer between <final_answer></final_answer>. For example:<final_answer>The weather in SF is 64 degrees</final_answer>Begin!Question: {input}`;

const runnableAgent = RunnableSequence.from([ { input: (i: { input: string; tools: Tool[]; steps: AgentStep[] }) => i.input, tools: (i: { input: string; tools: Tool[]; steps: AgentStep[] }) => renderTextDescription(i.tools), agent_scratchpad: (i: { input: string; tools: Tool[]; steps: AgentStep[]; }) => formatXml(i.steps), }, prompt, model, outputParser,]);
const executor = AgentExecutor.fromAgentAndTools({ agent: runnableAgent, tools,});
console.log("Loaded executor");const input = "What is the weather in SF?";console.log(`Calling executor with input: ${input}`);const response = await executor.invoke({ input, tools });console.log(response);

Adding memory
=============
This shows how to add memory to an arbitrary chain. Right now, you can use the memory classes but need to hook them up manually.
Interactive tutorial
The screencast below interactively walks through an example of memory management. You can update and run the code as it's being written in the video!

Callbacks
=========
LangChain provides a callbacks system that allows you to hook into the various stages of your LLM application. This is useful for logging, monitoring, streaming, and other tasks.
You can subscribe to these events by using the `callbacks` argument available throughout the API. This method accepts a list of handler objects, which are expected to implement [one or more of the methods described in the API docs](https://api.js.langchain.com/interfaces/langchain_core_callbacks_base.CallbackHandlerMethods.html).
How to use callbacks[β](#how-to-use-callbacks "Direct link to How to use callbacks")
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The `callbacks` argument is available on most objects throughout the API ([Chains](/v0.1/docs/modules/chains/), [Language Models](/v0.1/docs/modules/model_io/), [Tools](/v0.1/docs/modules/agents/tools/), [Agents](/v0.1/docs/modules/agents/), etc.) in two different places.
### Constructor callbacks[β](#constructor-callbacks "Direct link to Constructor callbacks")
Defined in the constructor, eg. `new LLMChain({ callbacks: [handler] })`, which will be used for all calls made on that object, and will be scoped to that object only, eg. if you pass a handler to the `LLMChain` constructor, it will not be used by the Model attached to that chain.

### Request callbacks[β](#request-callbacks "Direct link to Request callbacks")
Defined in the `call()`/`run()`/`apply()` methods used for issuing a request, eg. `chain.call({ input: '...' }, [handler])`, which will be used for that specific request only, and all sub-requests that it contains (eg. a call to an LLMChain triggers a call to a Model, which uses the same handler passed in the `call()` method).
import { OpenAI } from "@langchain/openai";import { ConsoleCallbackHandler } from "@langchain/core/tracers/console";const llm = new OpenAI({ temperature: 0,});const response = await llm.invoke("1 + 1 =", { // These tags will be attached only to this call to the LLM. tags: ["example", "callbacks", "request"], // This handler will be used only for this call. callbacks: [new ConsoleCallbackHandler()],});

* [ConsoleCallbackHandler](https://api.js.langchain.com/classes/langchain_core_tracers_console.ConsoleCallbackHandler.html) from `@langchain/core/tracers/console`
### Verbose mode[β](#verbose-mode "Direct link to Verbose mode")
The `verbose` argument is available on most objects throughout the API (Chains, Models, Tools, Agents, etc.) as a constructor argument, eg. `new LLMChain({ verbose: true })`, and it is equivalent to passing a `ConsoleCallbackHandler` to the `callbacks` argument of that object and all child objects. This is useful for debugging, as it will log all events to the console. You can also enable verbose mode for the entire application by setting the environment variable `LANGCHAIN_VERBOSE=true`.
import { LLMChain } from "langchain/chains";import { OpenAI } from "@langchain/openai";import { PromptTemplate } from "@langchain/core/prompts";const chain = new LLMChain({ llm: new OpenAI({ temperature: 0 }), prompt: PromptTemplate.fromTemplate("Hello, world!"), // This will enable logging of all Chain *and* LLM events to the console. verbose: true,});
#### API Reference:
* [LLMChain](https://api.js.langchain.com/classes/langchain_chains.LLMChain.html) from `langchain/chains`
* [OpenAI](https://api.js.langchain.com/classes/langchain_openai.OpenAI.html) from `@langchain/openai`
* [PromptTemplate](https://api.js.langchain.com/classes/langchain_core_prompts.PromptTemplate.html) from `@langchain/core/prompts`
### When do you want to use each of these?[β](#when-do-you-want-to-use-each-of-these "Direct link to When do you want to use each of these?")
* Constructor callbacks are most useful for use cases such as logging, monitoring, etc., which are _not specific to a single request_, but rather to the entire chain. For example, if you want to log all the requests made to an LLMChain, you would pass a handler to the constructor.
* Request callbacks are most useful for use cases such as streaming, where you want to stream the output of a single request to a specific websocket connection, or other similar use cases. For example, if you want to stream the output of a single request to a websocket, you would pass a handler to the `call()` method
Usage examples[β](#usage-examples "Direct link to Usage examples")
------------------------------------------------------------------
### Built-in handlers[β](#built-in-handlers "Direct link to Built-in handlers")
LangChain provides a few built-in handlers that you can use to get started. These are available in the `langchain/callbacks` module. The most basic handler is the `ConsoleCallbackHandler`, which simply logs all events to the console. In the future we will add more default handlers to the library. Note that when the `verbose` flag on the object is set to `true`, the `ConsoleCallbackHandler` will be invoked even without being explicitly passed in.
import { LLMChain } from "langchain/chains";import { OpenAI } from "@langchain/openai";import { ConsoleCallbackHandler } from "@langchain/core/tracers/console";import { PromptTemplate } from "@langchain/core/prompts";export const run = async () => { const handler = new ConsoleCallbackHandler(); const llm = new OpenAI({ temperature: 0, callbacks: [handler] }); const prompt = PromptTemplate.fromTemplate("1 + {number} ="); const chain = new LLMChain({ prompt, llm, callbacks: [handler] }); const output = await chain.invoke({ number: 2 }); /* Entering new llm_chain chain... Finished chain. */ console.log(output); /* { text: ' 3\n\n3 - 1 = 2' } */ // The non-enumerable key `__run` contains the runId. console.log(output.__run); /* { runId: '90e1f42c-7cb4-484c-bf7a-70b73ef8e64b' } */};

* [PromptTemplate](https://api.js.langchain.com/classes/langchain_core_prompts.PromptTemplate.html) from `@langchain/core/prompts`
### One-off handlers[β](#one-off-handlers "Direct link to One-off handlers")
You can create a one-off handler inline by passing a plain object to the `callbacks` argument. This object should implement the [`CallbackHandlerMethods`](https://api.js.langchain.com/interfaces/langchain_core_callbacks_base.CallbackHandlerMethods.html) interface. This is useful if eg. you need to create a handler that you will use only for a single request, eg to stream the output of an LLM/Agent/etc to a websocket.
import { OpenAI } from "@langchain/openai";// To enable streaming, we pass in `streaming: true` to the LLM constructor.// Additionally, we pass in a handler for the `handleLLMNewToken` event.const model = new OpenAI({ maxTokens: 25, streaming: true,});const response = await model.invoke("Tell me a joke.", { callbacks: [ { handleLLMNewToken(token: string) { console.log({ token }); }, }, ],});console.log(response);/*{ token: '\n' }{ token: '\n' }{ token: 'Q' }{ token: ':' }{ token: ' Why' }{ token: ' did' }{ token: ' the' }{ token: ' chicken' }{ token: ' cross' }{ token: ' the' }{ token: ' playground' }{ token: '?' }{ token: '\n' }{ token: 'A' }{ token: ':' }{ token: ' To' }{ token: ' get' }{ token: ' to' }{ token: ' the' }{ token: ' other' }{ token: ' slide' }{ token: '.' }Q: Why did the chicken cross the playground?A: To get to the other slide.*/

We offer a method on the `CallbackManager` class that allows you to create a one-off handler. This is useful if eg. you need to create a handler that you will use only for a single request.
tip
Agents now have built in streaming support! Click [here](/v0.1/docs/modules/agents/how_to/streaming/) for more details.
This is a more complete example that passes a `CallbackManager` to a ChatModel, and LLMChain, a Tool, and an Agent.
import { LLMChain } from "langchain/chains";import { AgentExecutor, ZeroShotAgent } from "langchain/agents";import { ChatOpenAI } from "@langchain/openai";import { Calculator } from "@langchain/community/tools/calculator";import { Serialized } from "@langchain/core/load/serializable";import { BaseCallbackHandler } from "@langchain/core/callbacks/base";import { AgentAction } from "@langchain/core/agents";export const run = async () => { // You can implement your own callback handler by extending BaseCallbackHandler class CustomHandler extends BaseCallbackHandler { name = "custom_handler"; handleLLMNewToken(token: string) { console.log("token", { token }); } handleLLMStart(llm: Serialized, _prompts: string[]) { console.log("handleLLMStart", { llm }); } handleChainStart(chain: Serialized) { console.log("handleChainStart", { chain }); } handleAgentAction(action: AgentAction) { console.log("handleAgentAction", action); } handleToolStart(tool: Serialized) { console.log("handleToolStart", { tool }); } } const handler1 = new CustomHandler(); // Additionally, you can use the `fromMethods` method to create a callback handler const handler2 = BaseCallbackHandler.fromMethods({ handleLLMStart(llm, _prompts: string[]) { console.log("handleLLMStart: I'm the second handler!!", { llm }); }, handleChainStart(chain) { console.log("handleChainStart: I'm the second handler!!", { chain }); }, handleAgentAction(action) { console.log("handleAgentAction", action); }, handleToolStart(tool) { console.log("handleToolStart", { tool }); }, }); // You can restrict callbacks to a particular object by passing it upon creation const model = new ChatOpenAI({ temperature: 0, callbacks: [handler2], // this will issue handler2 callbacks related to this model streaming: true, // needed to enable streaming, which enables handleLLMNewToken }); const tools = [new Calculator()]; const agentPrompt = ZeroShotAgent.createPrompt(tools); const llmChain = new LLMChain({ llm: model, prompt: agentPrompt, callbacks: [handler2], // this will issue handler2 callbacks related to this chain }); const agent = new ZeroShotAgent({ llmChain, allowedTools: ["search"], }); const agentExecutor = AgentExecutor.fromAgentAndTools({ agent, tools, }); /* * When we pass the callback handler to the agent executor, it will be used for all * callbacks related to the agent and all the objects involved in the agent's * execution, in this case, the Tool, LLMChain, and LLM. * * The `handler2` callback handler will only be used for callbacks related to the * LLMChain and LLM, since we passed it to the LLMChain and LLM objects upon creation. */ const result = await agentExecutor.invoke( { input: "What is 2 to the power of 8", }, { callbacks: [handler1] } ); // this is needed to see handleAgentAction /* handleChainStart { chain: { name: 'agent_executor' } } handleChainStart { chain: { name: 'llm_chain' } } handleChainStart: I'm the second handler!! { chain: { name: 'llm_chain' } } handleLLMStart { llm: { name: 'openai' } } handleLLMStart: I'm the second handler!! { llm: { name: 'openai' } } token { token: '' } token { token: 'I' } token { token: ' can' } token { token: ' use' } token { token: ' the' } token { token: ' calculator' } token { token: ' tool' } token { token: ' to' } token { token: ' solve' } token { token: ' this' } token { token: '.\n' } token { token: 'Action' } token { token: ':' } token { token: ' calculator' } token { token: '\n' } token { token: 'Action' } token { token: ' Input' } token { token: ':' } token { token: ' ' } token { token: '2' } token { token: '^' } token { token: '8' } token { token: '' } handleAgentAction { tool: 'calculator', toolInput: '2^8', log: 'I can use the calculator tool to solve this.\n' + 'Action: calculator\n' + 'Action Input: 2^8' } handleToolStart { tool: { name: 'calculator' } } handleChainStart { chain: { name: 'llm_chain' } } handleChainStart: I'm the second handler!! { chain: { name: 'llm_chain' } } handleLLMStart { llm: { name: 'openai' } } handleLLMStart: I'm the second handler!! { llm: { name: 'openai' } } token { token: '' } token { token: 'That' } token { token: ' was' } token { token: ' easy' } token { token: '!\n' } token { token: 'Final' } token { token: ' Answer' } token { token: ':' } token { token: ' ' } token { token: '256' } token { token: '' } */ console.log(result); /* { output: '256', __run: { runId: '26d481a6-4410-4f39-b74d-f9a4f572379a' } } */};

Quickstart
==========
The quick start will cover the basics of working with language models. It will introduce the two different types of models - LLMs and ChatModels. It will then cover how to use PromptTemplates to format the inputs to these models, and how to use Output Parsers to work with the outputs. For a deeper conceptual guide into these topics - please see [this page](/v0.1/docs/modules/model_io/concepts/).
Models[β](#models "Direct link to Models")
------------------------------------------
tip
We're unifying model params across all packages. We now suggest using `model` instead of `modelName`, and `apiKey` for API keys.
* OpenAI
* Local (using Ollama)
* Anthropic
* Google GenAI
First we'll need to install the LangChain OpenAI integration package:
tip
See [this section for general instructions on installing integration packages](/v0.1/docs/get_started/installation/#installing-integration-packages).
* npm
* Yarn
* pnpm
npm install @langchain/openai
yarn add @langchain/openai
pnpm add @langchain/openai
Accessing the API requires an API key, which you can get by creating an account and heading [here](https://platform.openai.com/account/api-keys). Once we have a key we'll want to set it as an environment variable:
OPENAI_API_KEY="..."
We can then initialize the model:
import { OpenAI, ChatOpenAI } from "@langchain/openai";const llm = new OpenAI({ model: "gpt-3.5-turbo-instruct",});const chatModel = new ChatOpenAI({ model: "gpt-3.5-turbo",});
If you can't or would prefer not to set an environment variable, you can pass the key in directly via the `apiKey` named parameter when initiating the OpenAI LLM class:
const model = new ChatOpenAI({ apiKey: "<your key here>",});
[Ollama](https://ollama.ai/) allows you to run open-source large language models, such as Llama 2 and Mistral, locally.
First, follow [these instructions](https://github.com/jmorganca/ollama) to set up and run a local Ollama instance:
* [Download](https://ollama.ai/download)
* Fetch a model via e.g. `ollama pull mistral`
Then, make sure the Ollama server is running. Next, you'll need to install the LangChain community package:
tip
See [this section for general instructions on installing integration packages](/v0.1/docs/get_started/installation/#installing-integration-packages).
* npm
* Yarn
* pnpm
npm install @langchain/community
yarn add @langchain/community
pnpm add @langchain/community
And then you can do:
import { Ollama } from "@langchain/community/llms/ollama";import { ChatOllama } from "@langchain/community/chat_models/ollama";const llm = new Ollama({ baseUrl: "http://localhost:11434", // Default value model: "mistral",});const chatModel = new ChatOllama({ baseUrl: "http://localhost:11434", // Default value model: "mistral",});
First we'll need to install the LangChain Anthropic integration package:
tip
See [this section for general instructions on installing integration packages](/v0.1/docs/get_started/installation/#installing-integration-packages).
* npm
* Yarn
* pnpm
npm install @langchain/anthropic
yarn add @langchain/anthropic
pnpm add @langchain/anthropic
Accessing the API requires an API key, which you can get by creating an account [here](https://console.anthropic.com/). Once we have a key we'll want to set it as an environment variable:
ANTHROPIC_API_KEY="..."
We can then initialize the model:
import { ChatAnthropic } from "@langchain/anthropic";const chatModel = new ChatAnthropic({ model: "claude-3-sonnet-20240229",});
If you can't or would prefer not to set an environment variable, you can pass the key in directly via the `apiKey` named parameter when initiating the ChatAnthropic class:
const model = new ChatAnthropic({ apiKey: "<your key here>",});
First we'll need to install the LangChain Google GenAI integration package:
tip
See [this section for general instructions on installing integration packages](/v0.1/docs/get_started/installation/#installing-integration-packages).
* npm
* Yarn
* pnpm
npm install @langchain/google-genai
yarn add @langchain/google-genai
pnpm add @langchain/google-genai
Accessing the API requires an API key, which you can get by creating an account [here](https://ai.google.dev/tutorials/setup). Once we have a key we'll want to set it as an environment variable:
GOOGLE_API_KEY="..."
We can then initialize the model:
import { ChatGoogleGenerativeAI } from "@langchain/google-genai";const chatModel = new ChatGoogleGenerativeAI({ model: "gemini-1.0-pro",});
If you'd prefer not to set an environment variable you can pass the key in directly via the `apiKey` named parameter when initiating the `ChatGoogleGenerativeAI` class:
const model = new ChatGoogleGenerativeAI({ apiKey: "<your key here>",});
These classes represent configuration for a particular model. You can initialize them with parameters like `temperature` and others, and pass them around. The main difference between them is their input and output schemas.
* The LLM class takes a string as input and outputs a string.
* The ChatModel class takes a list of messages as input and outputs a message.
For a deeper conceptual explanation of this difference please see [this documentation](/v0.1/docs/modules/model_io/concepts/#models)
We can see the difference between an LLM and a ChatModel when we invoke it.
import { HumanMessage } from "@langchain/core/messages";const text = "What would be a good company name for a company that makes colorful socks?";const messages = [new HumanMessage(text)];await llm.invoke(text);// Feetful of Funawait chatModel.invoke(messages);/* AIMessage { content: 'Socks O'Color', additional_kwargs: {} }*/
The LLM returns a string, while the ChatModel returns a message.
Prompt Templates[β](#prompt-templates "Direct link to Prompt Templates")
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Most LLM applications do not pass user input directly into an LLM. Usually they will add the user input to a larger piece of text, called a prompt template, that provides additional context on the specific task at hand.
In the previous example, the text we passed to the model contained instructions to generate a company name. For our application, it would be great if the user only had to provide the description of a company/product without worrying about giving the model instructions.
PromptTemplates help with exactly this! They bundle up all the logic for going from user input into a fully formatted prompt. This can start off very simple - for example, a prompt to produce the above string would just be:
import { PromptTemplate } from "@langchain/core/prompts";const prompt = PromptTemplate.fromTemplate( "What is a good name for a company that makes {product}?");await prompt.format({ product: "colorful socks" });// What is a good name for a company that makes colorful socks?
However, the advantages of using these over raw string formatting are several. You can "partial" out variables - e.g. you can format only some of the variables at a time. You can compose them together, easily combining different templates into a single prompt. For explanations of these functionalities, see the [section on prompts](/v0.1/docs/modules/model_io/prompts/) for more detail.
`PromptTemplate`s can also be used to produce a list of messages. In this case, the prompt not only contains information about the content, but also each message (its role, its position in the list, etc.). We can use a `ChatPromptTemplate` created from a list of `ChatMessageTemplates`. Each `ChatMessageTemplate` contains instructions for how to format that `ChatMessage` - its role, and then also its content. Let's take a look at this below:
import { ChatPromptTemplate } from "@langchain/core/prompts";const template = "You are a helpful assistant that translates {input_language} to {output_language}.";const humanTemplate = "{text}";const chatPrompt = ChatPromptTemplate.fromMessages([ ["system", template], ["human", humanTemplate],]);await chatPrompt.formatMessages({ input_language: "English", output_language: "French", text: "I love programming.",});
[ SystemMessage { content: 'You are a helpful assistant that translates English to French.' }, HumanMessage { content: 'I love programming.' }]
ChatPromptTemplates can also be constructed in other ways - see the [section on prompts](/v0.1/docs/modules/model_io/prompts/) for more detail.
Output parsers[β](#output-parsers "Direct link to Output parsers")
------------------------------------------------------------------
`OutputParser`s convert the raw output of a language model into a format that can be used downstream. There are a few main types of `OutputParser`s, including:
* Convert text from `LLM` into structured information (e.g. JSON)
* Convert a `ChatMessage` into just a string
* Convert the extra information returned from a call besides the message (like OpenAI function invocation) into a string.
For full information on this, see the [section on output parsers](/v0.1/docs/modules/model_io/output_parsers/).
import { CommaSeparatedListOutputParser } from "langchain/output_parsers";const parser = new CommaSeparatedListOutputParser();await parser.invoke("hi, bye");// ['hi', 'bye']
Composing with LCEL[β](#composing-with-lcel "Direct link to Composing with LCEL")
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
We can now combine all these into one chain. This chain will take input variables, pass those to a prompt template to create a prompt, pass the prompt to a language model, and then pass the output through an (optional) output parser. This is a convenient way to bundle up a modular piece of logic. Let's see it in action!
const chain = chatPrompt.pipe(chatModel).pipe(parser);await chain.invoke({ text: "colors" });// ['red', 'blue', 'green', 'yellow', 'orange']
Note that we are using the `.pipe()` method to join these components together. This `.pipe()` method is powered by the LangChain Expression Language (LCEL) and relies on the universal `Runnable` interface that all of these objects implement. To learn more about LCEL, read the documentation [here](/v0.1/docs/expression_language/).

Concepts
========
The core element of any language model application is... the model. LangChain gives you the building blocks to interface with any language model. Everything in this section is about making it easier to work with models. This largely involves a clear interface for what a model is, helper utils for constructing inputs to models, and helper utils for working with the outputs of models.
Models[β](#models "Direct link to Models")
------------------------------------------
There are two main types of models that LangChain integrates with: LLMs and Chat Models. These are defined by their input and output types.
### LLMs[β](#llms "Direct link to LLMs")
LLMs in LangChain refer to pure text completion models. The APIs they wrap take a string prompt as input and output a string completion. OpenAI's GPT-3 is implemented as an LLM.
### Chat Models[β](#chat-models "Direct link to Chat Models")
Chat models are often backed by LLMs but tuned specifically for having conversations. Crucially, their provider APIs use a different interface than pure text completion models. Instead of a single string, they take a list of chat messages as input and they return an AI message as output. See the section below for more details on what exactly a message consists of. GPT-4 and Anthropic's Claude-2 are both implemented as chat models.
### Considerations[β](#considerations "Direct link to Considerations")
These two API types have pretty different input and output schemas. This means that the best way to interact with them may be quite different. Although LangChain makes it possible to treat them interchangeably, that doesn't mean you **should**. In particular, the prompting strategies for LLMs vs ChatModels may be quite different. This means that you will want to make sure the prompt you are using is designed for the model type you are working with.
Additionally, not all models are the same. Different models have different prompting strategies that work best for them. For example, Anthropic's models work best with XML while OpenAI's work best with JSON. This means that the prompt you use for one model may not transfer to other ones. LangChain provides a lot of default prompts, however, these are not guaranteed to work well with the model are you using. Historically speaking, most prompts work well with OpenAI but are not heavily tested on other models. This is something we are working to address, but it is something you should keep in mind.
Messages[β](#messages "Direct link to Messages")
------------------------------------------------
ChatModels take a list of messages as input and return a message. There are a few different types of messages. All messages have a `role` and a `content` property. The `role` describes WHO is saying the message. LangChain has different message classes for different roles. The `content` property describes the content of the message. This can be a few different things:
* A string (most models are this way)
* A List of dictionaries (this is used for multi-modal input, where the dictionary contains information about that input type and that input location)
In addition, messages have an `additional_kwargs` property. This is where additional information about messages can be passed. This is largely used for input parameters that are _provider specific_ and not general. The best-known example of this is `function_call` from OpenAI.
### HumanMessage[β](#humanmessage "Direct link to HumanMessage")
This represents a message from the user. Generally consists only of content.
### AIMessage[β](#aimessage "Direct link to AIMessage")
This represents a message from the model. This may have `additional_kwargs` in it - for example, `function_call` if using OpenAI Function calling.
### SystemMessage[β](#systemmessage "Direct link to SystemMessage")
This represents a system message. Only some models support this. This tells the model how to behave. This generally only consists of content.
### FunctionMessage[β](#functionmessage "Direct link to FunctionMessage")
This represents the result of a function call. In addition to `role` and `content`, this message has a `name` parameter which conveys the name of the function that was called to produce this result.
### ToolMessage[β](#toolmessage "Direct link to ToolMessage")
This represents the result of a tool call. This is distinct from a FunctionMessage to match OpenAI's `function` and `tool` message types. In addition to `role` and `content`, this message has a `tool_call_id` parameter which conveys the id of the call to the tool that was called to produce this result.
Prompts[β](#prompts "Direct link to Prompts")
---------------------------------------------
The inputs to language models are often called prompts. Oftentimes, the user input from your app is not the direct input to the model. Rather, their input is transformed in some way to produce the string or list of messages that go into the model. The objects that take user input and transform it into the final string or messages are known as "Prompt Templates". LangChain provides several abstractions to make working with prompts easier.
### PromptValue[β](#promptvalue "Direct link to PromptValue")
ChatModels and LLMs take different input types. PromptValue is a class designed to be interoperable between the two. It exposes a method to be cast to a string (to work with LLMs) and another to be cast to a list of messages (to work with ChatModels).
### PromptTemplate[β](#prompttemplate "Direct link to PromptTemplate")
This is an example of a prompt template. This consists of a template string. This string is then formatted with user inputs to produce a final string.
### MessagePromptTemplate[β](#messageprompttemplate "Direct link to MessagePromptTemplate")
This is an example of a prompt template. This consists of a template **message** - meaning a specific role and a PromptTemplate. This PromptTemplate is then formatted with user inputs to produce a final string that becomes the `content` of this message.
#### HumanMessagePromptTemplate[β](#humanmessageprompttemplate "Direct link to HumanMessagePromptTemplate")
This is MessagePromptTemplate that produces a HumanMessage.
#### AIMessagePromptTemplate[β](#aimessageprompttemplate "Direct link to AIMessagePromptTemplate")
This is MessagePromptTemplate which produces an AIMessage.
#### SystemMessagePromptTemplate[β](#systemmessageprompttemplate "Direct link to SystemMessagePromptTemplate")
This is MessagePromptTemplate that produces a SystemMessage.
### MessagesPlaceholder[β](#messagesplaceholder "Direct link to MessagesPlaceholder")
Oftentimes inputs to prompts can be a list of messages. This is when you would use a MessagesPlaceholder. These objects are parameterized by a `variable_name` argument. The input with the same value as this `variable_name` value should be a list of messages.
### ChatPromptTemplate[β](#chatprompttemplate "Direct link to ChatPromptTemplate")
This is an example of a prompt template. This consists of a list of MessagePromptTemplates or MessagePlaceholders. These are then formatted with user inputs to produce a final list of messages.
Output Parsers[β](#output-parsers "Direct link to Output Parsers")
------------------------------------------------------------------
The output of models is either strings or a message. Oftentimes, the string or messages contain information formatted in a specific format to be used downstream (e.g. a comma-separated list, or JSON blob). Output parsers are responsible for taking in the output of a model and transforming it into a more usable form. These generally work on the `content` of the output message but occasionally work on values in the `additional_kwargs` field.
### StrOutputParser[β](#stroutputparser "Direct link to StrOutputParser")
This is a simple output parser that just converts the output of a language model (LLM or ChatModel) into a string. If the model is an LLM (and therefore outputs a string) it just passes that string through. If the output is a ChatModel (and therefore outputs a message) it passes through the `.content` attribute of the message.
### OpenAI Functions Parsers[β](#openai-functions-parsers "Direct link to OpenAI Functions Parsers")
There are a few parsers dedicated to working with OpenAI function calling. They take the output of the `function_call` and `arguments` parameters (which are inside `additional_kwargs`) and work with those, largely ignoring content.
### Agent Output Parsers[β](#agent-output-parsers "Direct link to Agent Output Parsers")
[Agents](/v0.1/docs/modules/agents/) are systems that use language models to determine what steps to take. The output of a language model therefore needs to be parsed into some schema that can represent what actions (if any) are to be taken. AgentOutputParsers are responsible for taking raw LLM or ChatModel output and converting it to that schema. The logic inside these output parsers can differ depending on the model and prompting strategy being used.

Prompts
=======
A prompt for a language model is a set of instructions or input provided by a user to guide the model's response, helping it understand the context and generate relevant and coherent language-based output, such as answering questions, completing sentences, or engaging in a conversation.
