Class AgentExecutor

A chain managing an agent using tools.

Example


const executor = AgentExecutor.fromAgentAndTools({
  agent: async () => loadAgentFromLangchainHub(),
  tools: [new SerpAPI(), new Calculator()],
  returnIntermediateSteps: true,
});

const result = await executor.invoke({
  input: `Who is Olivia Wilde's boyfriend? What is his current age raised to the 0.23 power?`,
});

Constructors

constructor

new AgentExecutor(input): AgentExecutor
Parameters
- input: AgentExecutorInput
Returns AgentExecutor
Overrides BaseChain.constructor
- Defined in docs/api_refs/langchain/src/agents/executor.ts:384

Properties

agent

agent: BaseSingleActionAgent | BaseMultiActionAgent

earlyStoppingMethod

earlyStoppingMethod: StoppingMethod = "force"

handleParsingErrors

handleParsingErrors: string | boolean | ((e) => string) = false

How to handle errors raised by the agent's output parser. Defaults to False, which raises the error.

If true, the error will be sent back to the LLM as an observation. If a string, the string itself will be sent to the LLM as an observation. If a callable function, the function will be called with the exception as an argument, and the result of that function will be passed to the agent as an observation.

  Returns string
