Agents Overview

The general meaning of an agent is "something that is capable of producing a particular effect".

In the context of Embedia, an agent has the following aspects:

• It uses a large language model as the decision maker
• It is designed to accomplish a specific task
• If given the access, it can modify things in its environment (using Tools)
• It runs in a loop, taking decisions (using the LLM) based on its current state and acts on them to accomplish its task

Embedia's agents are designed in a way that they can be controlled by other agents. Hence, every agent will be a subclass of the Tool class. (Learn more about: Tool) In that sense, the parent agent will use the child agents as tools to accomplish its task.

The prebuilt Agents that are shipped with the library are:
