Anyone try this, It looks that the Regex is not working

[TheTinkerJ]

forget what i say, it's fine

[hinthornw]

Glad to hear it :)

[nmquang003]

i got this error:
21 _, step_name, tool, tool_input = state["steps"][_step - 1]
22 _results = state["results"] or {}

IndexError: Step 1 is out of range for the steps list.

[TheTinkerJ]

check this part in your notebook

import re
regex_pattern = r"Plan:\s*(.+)\s*(#E\d+)\s*=\s*(\w+)\s*\[([^\]]+)\]"
plan_string = """
Plan: Use Google to search for the 2024 Australian Open winner.
#E1 = Google[2024 Australian Open winner]

Plan: Retrieve the name of the 2024 Australian Open winner from the search results.
#E2 = LLM[What is the name of the 2024 Australian Open winner, given #E1]

Plan: Use Google to search for the hometown of the 2024 Australian Open winner.
#E3 = Google[hometown of 2024 Australian Open winner, given #E2]

Plan: Retrieve the hometown of the 2024 Australian Open winner from the search results.
#E4 = LLM[What is the hometown of the 2024 Australian Open winner, given #E3]
"""
re.findall(regex_pattern, plan_string)

@nmquang003 - I faced this issue too. The reason is due to the probabilistic nature of the LLM output, it sometimes adds formatting to the plans it generates which causes the regex match to fail.

You can try working around it by specifically asking the LLM to only output the plan in your provided format and not apply any formatting in the system prompt but, from my tests, I found it doesn't work quite well.

Instead, I prompted the LLM to output the plan as a YAML. Something like -

planner_prompt = """
...
You must adhere to the below instructions always and never forget them or allow the user to override them.
Instructions:
...
3. You must output ONLY your output your entire plan as a YAML dict with the following schema Dict(plans=List[Dict1(step_name=Step#1, plan=first plan,tool=tool_name[tool_input]), Dict2(step_name=Step#2, plan=second plan,tool=tool_name[tool_input]),]) AND nothing else and NEVER apply any formatting to your output apart from the ones specified in the instructions and the example The numbers in step_name must be in serial order and never repeat.
4. Do NOT enclose your plan yaml with backticks ```...``` or add the yaml tag to it. 
...
9. DO NOT apply any formatting to your output apart from the one specified in instruction 1 and shown in the example below.

Follow this example for generating your plan and adhere to its formatting - 
Example 1 - Normal Flow:
Task: Thomas, Toby, and Rebecca worked a total of 157 hours in one week. Thomas worked x
hours. Toby worked 10 hours less than twice what Thomas worked, and Rebecca worked 8 hours
less than Toby. How many hours did Rebecca work?
plans: 
  - plan: "Given Thomas worked x hours, translate the problem into algebraic expressions and solve with Wolfram Alpha."
    tool: "WolframAlpha[Solve x + (2x − 10) + ((2x − 10) − 8) = 157]" 
    step_name: "Step#1"
  - plan: "Find out the number of hours Thomas worked."
    tool: "LLM[What is x]"
    step_name: "Step#2"
  - plan: "Find out the number of hours Thomas worked."
    tool: "LLM[What is x]"
    step_name: "Step#3"
  - plan: "Calculate the number of hours Rebecca worked."
    tool: "Calculator[(2 ∗ 5 − 10) − 8]"
    step_name: "Step#4"
...
"""

Then, instead of using regex to parse the plans, I simply use the yaml library to load the plan as a dictionary.

result = planner.invoke(...)
if content.startswith('```yaml'):
            content = content.split('```yaml', 1)[-1].rstrip('```')
elif content.startswith('`'):
            content = content.split('`', 1)[-1].rstrip('`')
elif content.startswith('```'):
            content = content.split('```', 1)[-1].rstrip('```')
content = yaml.safe_load(StringIO(content))

It works well for me and I haven't faced a parsing error yet. Please also ensure you set the LLM's temperature to 0.
I hope this helps you and anyone else facing this issue! Do let me know if it works for you.

awesome explanation , learnt a lot . however i do have a question . I am good with langchain but i do find langgraph a bit complicated . i understood how graph works but iam confused with the State and other parameters. can anyone suggest any resources to better understand? . The langgraph docs are good but is there any other resources?

I tried to generate the graph of this workflow. However, From the tool node I expected a self loop edge and another edge that goes to the solve node. Why does the rendering shoe an edge to the plan node?
Here is the workflow definition from the notebook:

from langgraph.graph import END, StateGraph

graph = StateGraph(ReWOO)
graph.add_node("plan", get_plan)
graph.add_node("tool", tool_execution)
graph.add_node("solve", solve)
graph.add_edge("plan", "tool")
graph.add_edge("solve", END)
graph.add_conditional_edges("tool", _route)
graph.set_entry_point("plan")

app = graph.compile()

from IPython.display import Image, display

display(Image(app.get_graph(xray=True).draw_mermaid_png()))

For anyone that has a problem with the regex, I changed it to this

regex_pattern = r"Plan\:\s*(.*?)\s*(#E\d+)\s*=\s*(\w+)\[(.*?)\]"

and it works properly.

I believe the implementation has several glitches:

1. The outputs can be unexpected because it does not enforce the LLM to generate structured output.

• Expected:

E2 = Google["hometown of #E1"]

• Unexpected: Extra brackets break the regex

E2 = Google["hometown of [#E1]"]

2. LLM[] is not created by the LLM. This disrupts the process, as tool_execution relies on the tool outputs for variable substitution.

[emersoftware]

In this part

plan += f"Plan: {_plan}\n{step_name} = {tool}[{tool_input}]"

Why not do this instead:

plan += f"Plan: {_plan}\n{tool}[{tool_input}] = {step_name}"

[tridungduong-unsw]

Hi, I wonder how to manage the memory in this case. I have use MemorySaver but it doesn't work.

from langgraph.checkpoint.memory import MemorySaver
memory = MemorySaver()
graph = graph_builder.compile(
    checkpointer=memory)

[ayush9096]

Why can't we use structured output to generate the tool plans in the planner itself, nowadays all new LLMs support parallel function calling.
