Function Details

README keeps the core usage model in one place. Longer examples, adapter-specific setup, and production guidance live in the dedicated docs pages.

1. Detachable Memory Module (mem0)

LightAgent accepts any memory backend that provides store(data, user_id) and retrieve(query, user_id). This keeps memory detachable: you can start with a simple custom class, use mem0, or plug in a vector/graph memory adapter without changing agent code.

Use user_id to isolate conversations, and use MemoryPolicy when memory is shared across users, tenants, agents, or traces.

from LightAgent import LightAgent, MemoryPolicy

agent = LightAgent(
    model="gpt-4.1",
    api_key="your_api_key",
    base_url="your_base_url",
    memory=your_memory_backend,
    memory_policy=MemoryPolicy(
        namespace="tenant-a",
        allowed_sources=("user", "reflection"),
        allowed_scopes=("user", "agent"),
        reject_duplicate_writes=True,
        min_write_length=8,
    ),
)

response = agent.run("Remember that I prefer concise reports.", user_id="alice")

See Memory Security Guidance, Memory Admission And Mutation Controls, and Memory, Trace, And Swarm Boundaries.

2. Tool Integration

Use Python functions with tool_info metadata to expose controlled capabilities to an agent. LightAgent can also work with runtime tools, ToolRegistry, ToolLoader, AsyncToolDispatcher, generated tools, and MCP tools.

from LightAgent import LightAgent

def get_order_status(order_id: str) -> str:
    return f"Order {order_id} is being processed."

get_order_status.tool_info = {
    "tool_name": "get_order_status",
    "tool_description": "Get the status of an order.",
    "tool_params": [
        {"name": "order_id", "description": "Order ID", "type": "string", "required": True},
    ],
}

agent = LightAgent(
    model="gpt-4.1",
    api_key="your_api_key",
    base_url="your_base_url",
    tools=[get_order_status],
)

For advanced tool loading, generated tools, async dispatch, and MCP integration, see Tools Guide.

3. Tool Generator

agent.create_tool() can generate tool code from API documentation or natural-language descriptions. It is useful when converting an internal API document into callable Python tools.

Keep generated tools in a reviewed tools directory, test them before production use, and avoid committing generated or experimental local tools unless they are part of the public package.

agent.create_tool(
    "Create a tool that calls the internal order status API.",
    tools_directory="tools",
)

4. Tree of Thought (ToT)

Enable tree_of_thought=True when a task needs explicit planning and reflection before tool use or final response generation. ToT is best for complex multi-step reasoning, tool selection, and tasks where the agent should inspect its plan before acting.

agent = LightAgent(
    model="gpt-4.1",
    api_key="your_api_key",
    base_url="your_base_url",
    tree_of_thought=True,
    tot_model="gpt-4.1",
    tot_api_key="your_api_key",
    tot_base_url="your_base_url",
)

5. Multi-Agent Collaboration

LightSwarm routes work across specialized agents for role-based delegation and multi-agent task handling. Use it when one front-facing agent should delegate to domain agents such as support, HR, finance, research, or data analysis.

Keep each agent's role narrow, give each agent clear boundaries, and avoid letting delegated agents write unrelated long-term memory unless the memory policy allows it.

from LightAgent import LightAgent, LightSwarm

frontdesk = LightAgent(name="frontdesk", role="Route requests to the right specialist.")
finance = LightAgent(name="finance", role="Answer finance approval questions.")

swarm = LightSwarm()
swarm.register_agent(frontdesk, finance)
result = swarm.run(agent=frontdesk, query="How do I approve a vendor payment?")

For debugging role drift or cross-agent memory issues, see Multi-agent failure map.

6. Streaming API

agent.run(query, stream=True) returns OpenAI-compatible streaming chunks and remains backward compatible with existing integrations. Use it for chat UIs, long responses, and agent services that should start sending output before the full answer is complete.

for chunk in agent.run("Write a short report about AI agents.", stream=True):
    print(chunk)

7. Agent Self-Learning

Self-learning can be combined with a memory backend so an agent can retain scenario-specific knowledge across users or sessions. In production, pair self-learning with MemoryPolicy so low-quality, private, expired, or unrelated content does not enter long-term memory.

Recommended production controls:

• Use namespace to separate tenants or environments.
• Use allowed_sources, allowed_scopes, and allowed_agent_names to limit retrieved memory.
• Use memory_write_admission, reject_write_patterns, min_write_length, and reject_duplicate_writes to control writes.
• Use enforce_expires_at=True when memory records carry expiration metadata.

8. Langfuse Log Tracking

LightAgent can send trace data to Langfuse through tracetools configuration. For most local debugging, start with built-in trace events:

result = agent.run("Debug this workflow.", result_format="object", trace=True)
print(result.trace_id)
print(agent.export_trace())

See Trace Observability for event shapes and production debugging guidance.

9. Agent Assessment

Agent assessment is planned for future versions and will focus on evaluating agent behavior against business scenarios.

10. LightFlow Workflows

LightFlow is the deterministic workflow layer. Use it when a task should run through known steps instead of relying on free-form agent planning.

Key v0.9.0 workflow controls:

• Step states: pending, running, success, failed, skipped, waiting_approval.
• DAG validation: flow.validate(strict=True) checks unknown dependencies, cycles, and isolated steps.
• Step controls: timeout, max_retry, cancel_if, fallback_agent, requires_approval, and approval_handler.
• Persistence: JsonLightFlowStore stores run records and checkpoints.
• Recovery: flow.resume(run_id) continues incomplete runs; flow.rerun_step(run_id, step_name) reruns one step and downstream steps.
• Inspection: flow.get_run(run_id) and flow.list_runs() expose workflow state for UIs.

from LightAgent import JsonLightFlowStore, LightAgent, LightFlow

store = JsonLightFlowStore(".lightflow_runs")
draft_agent = LightAgent(model="gpt-4.1", api_key="your_api_key", base_url="your_base_url")
review_agent = LightAgent(model="gpt-4.1", api_key="your_api_key", base_url="your_base_url")
backup_agent = LightAgent(model="gpt-4.1", api_key="your_api_key", base_url="your_base_url")

def approve(step, context):
    return {"approved": True, "reason": "Approved by policy."}

flow = (
    LightFlow(store=store)
    .step("draft", agent=draft_agent, timeout=30, max_retry=2)
    .step(
        "review",
        agent=review_agent,
        depends_on=["draft"],
        requires_approval=True,
        approval_handler=approve,
        fallback_agent=backup_agent,
    )
)

validation = flow.validate(strict=True)
if validation["errors"]:
    raise ValueError(validation["errors"])

result = flow.run("Prepare a customer support summary.", run_id="case-001", trace=True)
record = flow.get_run("case-001")

See LightFlow for complete workflow examples.

11. Guardrails

Guardrails are lightweight policy hooks around agent execution:

• Input guardrails inspect the user query before model execution.
• Tool guardrails inspect tool calls before execution.
• Output guardrails inspect or redact final non-streaming output.

from LightAgent import (
    LightAgent,
    high_risk_parameter_guardrail,
    output_redaction_guardrail,
    privacy_input_guardrail,
    sensitive_tool_confirmation_guardrail,
)

agent = LightAgent(
    model="gpt-4.1",
    api_key="your_api_key",
    base_url="your_base_url",
    input_guardrails=[privacy_input_guardrail()],
    tool_guardrails=[
        sensitive_tool_confirmation_guardrail(["transfer_money"], approved=False),
        high_risk_parameter_guardrail({
            "amount": lambda value: value is not None and float(value) <= 1000,
        }),
    ],
    output_guardrails=[output_redaction_guardrail()],
)

Use default guardrail templates for privacy-sensitive input, sensitive tool confirmation, high-risk parameter validation, and output redaction. See Guardrails.

12. Runtime Hooks

Runtime hooks are ordered middleware for production policies that need to observe, replace, or block lifecycle payloads without changing the default agent.run() behavior.

from LightAgent import HookDecision, LightAgent


def redact_before_model(ctx):
    if ctx.phase != "before_model_request":
        return None

    params = dict(ctx.payload["params"])
    messages = list(params["messages"])
    messages[-1] = {
        **messages[-1],
        "content": messages[-1]["content"].replace("secret-token", "[REDACTED]"),
    }
    params["messages"] = messages
    return HookDecision.replace({"params": params})


def block_dangerous_tool(ctx):
    if ctx.phase == "before_tool_call" and ctx.payload["tool_name"] == "delete_file":
        return HookDecision.block("delete_file requires manual approval")
    return None


agent = LightAgent(
    model="gpt-4.1",
    api_key="your_api_key",
    base_url="your_base_url",
    hooks=[redact_before_model, block_dangerous_tool],
)

result = agent.run("Summarize this secret-token safely.", result_format="object", trace=True)
print(result.content)
print(result.trace)

Hooks can target before_run, before_model_request, after_model_response, before_tool_call, after_tool_result, before_memory_write, and after_memory_write. LightFlow(hooks=[...]) also supports step lifecycle hooks such as before_flow_step, after_flow_step, on_approval_required, on_resume, and on_rerun. See Runtime Hooks.

13. SharedMemoryPool

SharedMemoryPool is an in-memory shared memory prototype for multi-agent experiments. It is append-first and keeps provenance metadata, making it useful for testing how multiple agents share information before adopting a durable vector or graph memory backend.

Use it with MemoryPolicy so each agent retrieves only memory that matches the expected namespace, source, scope, trust, confidence, or agent name.

Mainstream Agent Model Support

LightAgent works with OpenAI-compatible chat completion endpoints, including OpenAI, OpenRouter, Zhipu ChatGLM, DeepSeek, Qwen, StepFun, Moonshot/Kimi, MiniMax, vLLM, llama.cpp, Ollama-compatible endpoints, and self-hosted gateways.

For provider-specific parameters, base URLs, local model setup, and troubleshooting, see Model Provider Configuration.
