工作流与智能体

本指南回顾了常见的工作流和智能体模式。

• 工作流具有预定的代码路径，旨在按特定顺序运行。
• 智能体是动态的，定义自己的流程和工具使用。

LangGraph 在构建智能体和工作流时提供多种优势，包括 持久化、流式传输，以及对调试和 部署 的支持。

设置

要构建工作流或智能体，您可以使用支持结构化输出和工具调用的 任何聊天模型。以下示例使用 Anthropic：

1. 安装依赖项：

pip install langchain_core langchain-anthropic langgraph

2. 初始化 LLM：

import os
import getpass

from langchain_anthropic import ChatAnthropic

def _set_env(var: str):
    if not os.environ.get(var):
        os.environ[var] = getpass.getpass(f"{var}: ")


_set_env("ANTHROPIC_API_KEY")

llm = ChatAnthropic(model="claude-sonnet-4-6")

LLM 与增强功能

工作流和智能体系统基于 LLM 以及您添加的各种增强功能。工具调用、结构化输出 和 短期记忆 是定制 LLM 以满足您需求的几个选项。

# Schema for structured output
from pydantic import BaseModel, Field


class SearchQuery(BaseModel):
    search_query: str = Field(None, description="Query that is optimized web search.")
    justification: str = Field(
        None, description="Why this query is relevant to the user's request."
    )


# Augment the LLM with schema for structured output
structured_llm = llm.with_structured_output(SearchQuery)

# Invoke the augmented LLM
output = structured_llm.invoke("How does Calcium CT score relate to high cholesterol?")

# Define a tool
def multiply(a: int, b: int) -> int:
    return a * b

# Augment the LLM with tools
llm_with_tools = llm.bind_tools([multiply])

# Invoke the LLM with input that triggers the tool call
msg = llm_with_tools.invoke("What is 2 times 3?")

# Get the tool call
msg.tool_calls

提示链

提示链是指每个 LLM 调用处理前一个调用的输出。它通常用于执行定义明确的任务，这些任务可以分解为更小的、可验证的步骤。一些示例包括：

• 将文档翻译成不同的语言
• 验证生成内容的一致性

并行化

通过并行化，LLM 同时处理任务。这可以通过同时运行多个独立的子任务，或者多次运行同一任务以检查不同输出来完成。并行化通常用于：

• 拆分子任务并并行运行它们，从而提高速度
• 多次运行任务以检查不同输出，从而提高置信度

一些示例包括：

• 运行一个处理文档关键词的子任务，以及另一个检查格式错误的子任务
• 多次运行一个根据标准（如引用数量、来源数量及来源质量）对文档进行评分的任务

路由

路由工作流处理输入，然后将其定向到特定上下文的任务。这允许您为复杂任务定义专用流程。例如，构建用于回答产品相关问题的流程可能会先处理问题类型，然后将请求路由到定价、退款、退货等的特定流程。

编排器 - 工作者

在编排器 - 工作者配置中，编排器：

• 将任务分解为子任务
• 将子任务委托给工作者
• 将工作者输出综合为最终结果

编排器 - 工作者工作流提供更灵活性，通常在子任务无法像 并行化 那样预先定义时使用。这在编写代码或需要在多个文件中更新内容的流程中很常见。例如，需要更新多个 Python 库的安装说明的流程，且涉及未知数量的文档，可能会使用此模式。

在 LangGraph 中创建工作者

编排器 - 工作者工作流很常见，LangGraph 内置支持它们。Send API 允许您动态创建工作节点并向其发送特定输入。每个工作者都有自己的状态，所有工作者输出都写入共享状态键，编排器图可访问该键。这使编排器能够访问所有工作者输出，并将其综合为最终输出。下面的示例遍历章节列表，并使用 Send API 将每个章节发送给每个工作者。

评估器 - 优化器

在评估器 - 优化器工作流中，一个 LLM 调用创建响应，另一个评估该响应。如果评估器或 人工介入 确定响应需要改进，则提供反馈并重新创建响应。此循环持续进行，直到生成可接受的响应。

当任务有特定的成功标准但需要迭代才能满足时，通常使用评估器 - 优化器工作流。例如，在两种语言之间翻译文本时，并不总是能完美匹配。可能需要几次迭代才能生成在两种语言中具有相同含义的翻译。

智能体

智能体通常实现为使用 工具 执行操作的 LLM。它们在连续反馈循环中运行，用于问题和解决方案不可预测的情况。智能体比工作流拥有更多自主权，可以决定使用哪些工具以及如何解决问题。您仍然可以定义可用的工具集以及智能体行为的指导方针。

要开始使用智能体，请参阅 快速入门 或阅读更多关于 它们如何工作 的信息。

Using tools

from langchain.tools import tool

    Args:

        b: Second int
    """

@tool
def add(a: int, b: int) -> int:
    """Adds `a` and `b`.

    Args:
        a: First int
        b: Second int
    """
    return a + b


@tool
def divide(a: int, b: int) -> float:
    """Divide `a` and `b`.

    Args:
        a: First int

    """
