Agent configuration

This page documents the configuration objects used to specify the behavior of an agent. To learn about the agent class itself, see the agent class reference page.

It might be easiest to simply look at some of our example configurations in the config dir.

Example: default config default.yaml

--8<-- "config/default.yaml"

Currently, there are three main agent classes:

• DefaultAgentConfig: This is the default agent.
• RetryAgentConfig: A "meta agent" that instantiates multiple agents for multiple attempts and then picks the best solution.
• ShellAgentConfig: Config for ShellAgent (invoked with sweagent sh), which is an experimental mode for quick & interactive (human-in-the-loop) workflows.
