多代理主管

主管(Supervisor)是一种多代理架构,其中专门的代理由一个中心的主管代理来协调。主管代理控制所有的通信流和任务委托,根据当前的上下文和任务需求来决定调用哪个代理。

在本教程中,您将构建一个包含两个代理——一个研究专家和一个数学专家的主管系统。在本教程结束时,您将能够:

  1. 构建专门的研究和数学代理
  2. 使用预构建的 langgraph-supervisor 构建一个用于编排它们的主管
  3. 从零开始构建一个主管
  4. 实现高级任务委托

1. 创建工作代理

首先,让我们创建我们的专门工作代理——研究代理和数学代理。

  • 研究代理将有权使用 Tavily API 访问网络搜索工具。
  • 数学代理将有权访问简单的数学工具(addmultiplydivide)。

研究代理

对于网络搜索,我们将使用来自 langchain-tavilyTavilySearch 工具。

API 参考:TavilySearch

from langchain_tavily import TavilySearch

web_search = TavilySearch(max_results=3)
web_search_results = web_search.invoke("who is the mayor of NYC?")

print(web_search_results["results"][0]["content"])

输出

Adams 110th Mayor of New York City Mayor Eric Adams has served the people of New York City as an NYPD officer, State Senator, Brooklyn Borough President, and now as the 110th Mayor of the City of New York. Mayor Eric Adams has served the people of New York City as an NYPD officer, State Senator, Brooklyn Borough President, and now as the 110th Mayor of the City of New York. He gave voice to a diverse coalition of working families in all five boroughs and is leading the fight to bring back New York City's economy, reduce inequality, improve public safety, and build a stronger, healthier city that delivers for all New Yorkers. As the representative of one of the nation's largest counties, Eric fought tirelessly to grow the local economy, invest in schools, reduce inequality, improve public safety, and advocate for smart policies and better government that delivers for all New Yorkers.

要创建单独的工作代理,我们将使用 LangGraph 的预构建 agent

API 参考:create_react_agent

from langgraph.prebuilt import create_react_agent

research_agent = create_react_agent(
    model="openai:gpt-4.1",
    tools=[web_search],
    prompt=(
        "You are a research agent.\n\n"
        "INSTRUCTIONS:\n"
        "- Assist ONLY with research-related tasks, DO NOT do any math\n"
        "- After you're done with your tasks, respond to the supervisor directly\n"
        "- Respond ONLY with the results of your work, do NOT include ANY other text."
    ),
    name="research_agent",
)

让我们 运行代理 来验证其行为是否符合预期。

我们将使用 pretty_print_messages 辅助函数来很好地呈现流式代理输出。

from langchain_core.messages import convert_to_messages


def pretty_print_message(message, indent=False):
    pretty_message = message.pretty_repr(html=True)
    if not indent:
        print(pretty_message)
        return

    indented = "\n".join("\t" + c for c in pretty_message.split("\n"))
    print(indented)


def pretty_print_messages(update, last_message=False):
    is_subgraph = False
    if isinstance(update, tuple):
        ns, update = update
        # skip parent graph updates in the printouts
        if len(ns) == 0:
            return

        graph_id = ns[-1].split(":")[0]
        print(f"Update from subgraph {graph_id}:")
        print("\n")
        is_subgraph = True

    for node_name, node_update in update.items():
        update_label = f"Update from node {node_name}:"
        if is_subgraph:
            update_label = "\t" + update_label

        print(update_label)
        print("\n")

        messages = convert_to_messages(node_update["messages"])
        if last_message:
            messages = messages[-1:]

        for m in messages:
            pretty_print_message(m, indent=is_subgraph)
        print("\n")
for chunk in research_agent.stream(
    {"messages": [{"role": "user", "content": "who is the mayor of NYC?"}]}
):
    pretty_print_messages(chunk)

输出

数学代理

对于数学代理工具,我们将使用 纯 Python 函数

def add(a: float, b: float):
    """Add two numbers."""
    return a + b


def multiply(a: float, b: float):
    """Multiply two numbers."""
    return a * b


def divide(a: float, b: float):
    """Divide two numbers."""
    return a / b


math_agent = create_react_agent(
    model="openai:gpt-4.1",
    tools=[add, multiply, divide],
    prompt=(
        "You are a math agent.\n\n"
        "INSTRUCTIONS:\n"
        "- Assist ONLY with math-related tasks\n"
        "- After you're done with your tasks, respond to the supervisor directly\n"
        "- Respond ONLY with the results of your work, do NOT include ANY other text."
    ),
    name="math_agent",
)

让我们运行数学代理

for chunk in math_agent.stream(
    {"messages": [{"role": "user", "content": "what's (3 + 5) x 7"}]}
):
    pretty_print_messages(chunk)

2. 使用 langgraph-supervisor 创建主管

为了实现我们的多代理系统,我们将使用来自预构建的 langgraph-supervisor 库的 create_supervisor

API 参考:create_supervisor | init_chat_model

from langgraph_supervisor import create_supervisor
from langchain.chat_models import init_chat_model

supervisor = create_supervisor(
    model=init_chat_model("openai:gpt-4.1"),
    agents=[research_agent, math_agent],
    prompt=(
        "You are a supervisor managing two agents:\n"
        "- a research agent. Assign research-related tasks to this agent\n"
        "- a math agent. Assign math-related tasks to this agent\n"
        "Assign work to one agent at a time, do not call agents in parallel.\n"
        "Do not do any work yourself."
    ),
    add_handoff_back_messages=True,
    output_mode="full_history",
).compile()
from IPython.display import display, Image

display(Image(supervisor.get_graph().draw_mermaid_png()))

Graph

注意:当您运行此代码时,它将生成并显示主管图的可视化表示,展示主管和工作代理之间的流程。

现在让我们用一个需要两个代理的查询来运行它

  • 研究代理将查找必要的 GDP 信息
  • 数学代理将执行除法运算以找到纽约州 GDP 的百分比,如请求所示
for chunk in supervisor.stream(
    {
        "messages": [
            {
                "role": "user",
                "content": "find US and New York state GDP in 2024. what % of US GDP was New York state?",
            }
        ]
    },
):
    pretty_print_messages(chunk, last_message=True)

final_message_history = chunk["supervisor"]["messages"]

输出

Update from node supervisor:

In 2024, the US GDP was $29.18 trillion and New York State's GDP was $2.297 trillion. New York State accounted for approximately 7.87% of the total US GDP in 2024.

3. 从零开始创建主管

现在让我们从零开始实现这个同样的多代理系统。我们将需要:

  1. 设置主管如何与各个代理通信
  2. 创建主管代理
  3. 将主管和工作代理组合成一个 单一的多代理图

设置代理通信

我们需要定义一种方式让主管代理与工作代理进行通信。在多代理架构中实现这一点的一个常用方法是使用交接(handoffs),即一个代理将控制权*交接*给另一个代理。交接允许您指定:

  • destination:要转移到的目标代理
  • 负载:要传递给该代理的信息

我们将通过交接工具来实现交接,并将这些工具提供给主管代理:当主管调用这些工具时,它会将控制权交接给一个工作代理,并将完整的消息历史传递给该代理。

API 参考:tool | InjectedToolCallId | InjectedState | StateGraph | START | Command

from typing import Annotated
from langchain_core.tools import tool, InjectedToolCallId
from langgraph.prebuilt import InjectedState
from langgraph.graph import StateGraph, START, MessagesState
from langgraph.types import Command


def create_handoff_tool(*, agent_name: str, description: str | None = None):
    name = f"transfer_to_{agent_name}"
    description = description or f"Ask {agent_name} for help."

    @tool(name, description=description)
    def handoff_tool(
        state: Annotated[MessagesState, InjectedState],
        tool_call_id: Annotated[str, InjectedToolCallId],
    ) -> Command:
        tool_message = {
            "role": "tool",
            "content": f"Successfully transferred to {agent_name}",
            "name": name,
            "tool_call_id": tool_call_id,
        }
        return Command(
            goto=agent_name,  # (1)!
            update={**state, "messages": state["messages"] + [tool_message]},  # (2)!
            graph=Command.PARENT,  # (3)!
        )

    return handoff_tool


# Handoffs
assign_to_research_agent = create_handoff_tool(
    agent_name="research_agent",
    description="Assign task to a researcher agent.",
)

assign_to_math_agent = create_handoff_tool(
    agent_name="math_agent",
    description="Assign task to a math agent.",
)
  1. 要移交到的代理或节点的名称。
  2. 获取代理的消息,并将它们作为交接的一部分添加到父状态中。下一个代理将看到父状态。
  3. 指示 LangGraph 我们需要导航到父级多代理图中的代理节点。

创建主管代理

然后,让我们用我们刚刚定义的交接工具创建主管代理。我们将使用预构建的 create_react_agent

supervisor_agent = create_react_agent(
    model="openai:gpt-4.1",
    tools=[assign_to_research_agent, assign_to_math_agent],
    prompt=(
        "You are a supervisor managing two agents:\n"
        "- a research agent. Assign research-related tasks to this agent\n"
        "- a math agent. Assign math-related tasks to this agent\n"
        "Assign work to one agent at a time, do not call agents in parallel.\n"
        "Do not do any work yourself."
    ),
    name="supervisor",
)

创建多代理图

将所有这些整合在一起,让我们为我们的整体多代理系统创建一个图。我们将把主管和各个代理作为子图节点添加进去。

API 参考:END

from langgraph.graph import END

# Define the multi-agent supervisor graph
supervisor = (
    StateGraph(MessagesState)
    # NOTE: `destinations` is only needed for visualization and doesn't affect runtime behavior
    .add_node(supervisor_agent, destinations=("research_agent", "math_agent", END))
    .add_node(research_agent)
    .add_node(math_agent)
    .add_edge(START, "supervisor")
    # always return back to the supervisor
    .add_edge("research_agent", "supervisor")
    .add_edge("math_agent", "supervisor")
    .compile()
)

请注意,我们已经添加了从工作代理返回到主管的显式——这意味着它们保证将控制权返回给主管。如果您希望代理直接响应用户(即,将系统转变为一个路由器),您可以移除这些边。

from IPython.display import display, Image

display(Image(supervisor.get_graph().draw_mermaid_png()))

Graph

注意:当您运行此代码时,它将生成并显示多代理主管图的可视化表示,展示主管和工作代理之间的流程。

多代理图创建完成后,现在让我们来运行它!

for chunk in supervisor.stream(
    {
        "messages": [
            {
                "role": "user",
                "content": "find US and New York state GDP in 2024. what % of US GDP was New York state?",
            }
        ]
    },
):
    pretty_print_messages(chunk, last_message=True)

final_message_history = chunk["supervisor"]["messages"]

输出

重要

您可以看到,主管系统将所有单个代理的消息(即它们的内部工具调用循环)附加到完整的消息历史中。这意味着在每个主管回合,主管代理都会看到这个完整的历史。如果您想更多地控制:

  • 如何将输入传递给代理:您可以使用 LangGraph 的 Send() 原语在交接期间直接向工作代理发送数据。请参阅下面的任务委托示例。
  • 如何添加代理输出:您可以通过将代理包装在一个单独的节点函数中,来控制将多少代理的内部消息历史添加到整个主管消息历史中。

    def call_research_agent(state):
        # return agent's final response,
        # excluding inner monologue
        response = research_agent.invoke(state)
        return {"messages": response["messages"][-1]}
    

4. 创建委托任务

到目前为止,单个代理依赖于解释完整的消息历史来确定它们的任务。另一种方法是要求主管明确地制定一个任务。我们可以通过向 handoff_tool 函数添加一个 task_description 参数来实现这一点。

API 参考:Send

from langgraph.types import Send


def create_task_description_handoff_tool(
    *, agent_name: str, description: str | None = None
):
    name = f"transfer_to_{agent_name}"
    description = description or f"Ask {agent_name} for help."

    @tool(name, description=description)
    def handoff_tool(
        # this is populated by the supervisor LLM
        task_description: Annotated[
            str,
            "Description of what the next agent should do, including all of the relevant context.",
        ],
        # these parameters are ignored by the LLM
        state: Annotated[MessagesState, InjectedState],
    ) -> Command:
        task_description_message = {"role": "user", "content": task_description}
        agent_input = {**state, "messages": [task_description_message]}
        return Command(
            goto=[Send(agent_name, agent_input)],
            graph=Command.PARENT,
        )

    return handoff_tool


assign_to_research_agent_with_description = create_task_description_handoff_tool(
    agent_name="research_agent",
    description="Assign task to a researcher agent.",
)

assign_to_math_agent_with_description = create_task_description_handoff_tool(
    agent_name="math_agent",
    description="Assign task to a math agent.",
)

supervisor_agent_with_description = create_react_agent(
    model="openai:gpt-4.1",
    tools=[
        assign_to_research_agent_with_description,
        assign_to_math_agent_with_description,
    ],
    prompt=(
        "You are a supervisor managing two agents:\n"
        "- a research agent. Assign research-related tasks to this assistant\n"
        "- a math agent. Assign math-related tasks to this assistant\n"
        "Assign work to one agent at a time, do not call agents in parallel.\n"
        "Do not do any work yourself."
    ),
    name="supervisor",
)

supervisor_with_description = (
    StateGraph(MessagesState)
    .add_node(
        supervisor_agent_with_description, destinations=("research_agent", "math_agent")
    )
    .add_node(research_agent)
    .add_node(math_agent)
    .add_edge(START, "supervisor")
    .add_edge("research_agent", "supervisor")
    .add_edge("math_agent", "supervisor")
    .compile()
)

注意

我们在 handoff_tool 中使用了 Send() 原语。这意味着每个工作代理不再接收完整的 supervisor 图状态作为输入,而只看到 Send 负载的内容。在这个例子中,我们将任务描述作为单个“human”消息发送。

现在让我们用相同的输入查询来运行它

for chunk in supervisor_with_description.stream(
    {
        "messages": [
            {
                "role": "user",
                "content": "find US and New York state GDP in 2024. what % of US GDP was New York state?",
            }
        ]
    },
    subgraphs=True,
):
    pretty_print_messages(chunk, last_message=True)

输出
