SwarmRouter Documentation¶

The SwarmRouter class is a flexible routing system designed to manage different types of swarms for task execution. It provides a unified interface to interact with various swarm types, including AgentRearrange, MixtureOfAgents, SpreadSheetSwarm, SequentialWorkflow, ConcurrentWorkflow, and finally auto which will dynamically select the most appropriate swarm for you by analyzing your name, description, and input task. We will be continuously adding more swarm architectures as we progress with new developments.

Advanced Usage¶

Changing Swarm Types¶

You can create multiple SwarmRouter instances with different swarm types:

sequential_router = SwarmRouter(
    name="SequentialRouter",
    agents=[agent1, agent2],
    swarm_type="SequentialWorkflow"
)

concurrent_router = SwarmRouter(
    name="ConcurrentRouter",
    agents=[agent1, agent2],
    swarm_type="ConcurrentWorkflow"
)

Automatic Swarm Type Selection¶

You can let the SwarmRouter automatically select the best swarm type for a given task:

auto_router = SwarmRouter(
    name="AutoRouter",
    agents=[agent1, agent2],
    swarm_type="auto"
)

result = auto_router.run("Analyze and summarize the quarterly financial report")

Use Cases¶

AgentRearrange¶

Use Case: Optimizing agent order for complex multi-step tasks.

rearrange_router = SwarmRouter(
    name="TaskOptimizer",
    description="Optimize agent order for multi-step tasks",
    max_loops=3,
    agents=[data_extractor, analyzer, summarizer],
    swarm_type="AgentRearrange",
    flow=f"{data_extractor.name} -> {analyzer.name} -> {summarizer.name}"
)

result = rearrange_router.run("Analyze and summarize the quarterly financial report")

MixtureOfAgents¶

Use Case: Combining diverse expert agents for comprehensive analysis.

mixture_router = SwarmRouter(
    name="ExpertPanel",
    description="Combine insights from various expert agents",
    max_loops=1,
    agents=[financial_expert, market_analyst, tech_specialist],
    swarm_type="MixtureOfAgents"
)

result = mixture_router.run("Evaluate the potential acquisition of TechStartup Inc.")

SpreadSheetSwarm¶

Use Case: Collaborative data processing and analysis.

spreadsheet_router = SwarmRouter(
    name="DataProcessor",
    description="Collaborative data processing and analysis",
    max_loops=1,
    agents=[data_cleaner, statistical_analyzer, visualizer],
    swarm_type="SpreadSheetSwarm"
)

result = spreadsheet_router.run("Process and visualize customer churn data")

SequentialWorkflow¶

Use Case: Step-by-step document analysis and report generation.

sequential_router = SwarmRouter(
    name="ReportGenerator",
    description="Generate comprehensive reports sequentially",
    max_loops=1,
    agents=[data_extractor, analyzer, writer, reviewer],
    swarm_type="SequentialWorkflow"
)

result = sequential_router.run("Create a due diligence report for Project Alpha")

ConcurrentWorkflow¶

Use Case: Parallel processing of multiple data sources.

concurrent_router = SwarmRouter(
    name="MultiSourceAnalyzer",
    description="Analyze multiple data sources concurrently",
    max_loops=1,
    agents=[financial_analyst, market_researcher, competitor_analyst],
    swarm_type="ConcurrentWorkflow"
)

result = concurrent_router.run("Conduct a comprehensive market analysis for Product X")

GroupChat¶

Use Case: Simulating a group chat with multiple agents.

group_chat_router = SwarmRouter(
    name="GroupChat",
    description="Simulate a group chat with multiple agents",
    max_loops=1,
    agents=[financial_analyst, market_researcher, competitor_analyst],
    swarm_type="GroupChat"
)

result = group_chat_router.run("Conduct a comprehensive market analysis for Product X")

MultiAgentRouter¶

Use Case: Simulating a group chat with multiple agents.

multi_agent_router = SwarmRouter(
    name="MultiAgentRouter",
    description="Simulate a group chat with multiple agents",
    max_loops=1,
    agents=[financial_analyst, market_researcher, competitor_analyst],
    swarm_type="MultiAgentRouter"
)

result = multi_agent_router.run("Conduct a comprehensive market analysis for Product X")

Auto Select (Experimental)¶

Autonomously selects the right swarm by conducting vector search on your input task or name or description or all 3.

concurrent_router = SwarmRouter(
    name="MultiSourceAnalyzer",
    description="Analyze multiple data sources concurrently",
    max_loops=1,
    agents=[financial_analyst, market_researcher, competitor_analyst],
    swarm_type="auto" # Set this to 'auto' for it to auto select your swarm. It's match words like concurrently multiple -> "ConcurrentWorkflow"
)

result = concurrent_router.run("Conduct a comprehensive market analysis for Product X")

Advanced Features¶

Batch Processing¶

To process multiple tasks in a batch:

tasks = ["Analyze Q1 report", "Summarize competitor landscape", "Evaluate market trends"]
results = router.batch_run(tasks)

Threaded Execution¶

For non-blocking execution of a task:

result = router.threaded_run("Perform complex analysis")

Asynchronous Execution¶

For asynchronous task execution:

result = await router.async_run("Generate financial projections")

Concurrent Execution¶

To run a single task concurrently:

result = router.concurrent_run("Analyze multiple data streams")

Concurrent Batch Processing¶

To process multiple tasks concurrently:

tasks = ["Task 1", "Task 2", "Task 3"]
results = router.concurrent_batch_run(tasks)

Best Practices¶

Choose the appropriate swarm type based on your task requirements.
Provide clear and specific tasks to the swarm for optimal results.
Regularly review logs to monitor performance and identify potential issues.
Use descriptive names and descriptions for your SwarmRouter and agents.
Implement proper error handling in your application code.
Consider the nature of your tasks when choosing a swarm type (e.g., use ConcurrentWorkflow for tasks that can be parallelized).
Optimize your agents' prompts and configurations for best performance within the swarm.
Utilize the automatic swarm type selection feature for tasks where the optimal swarm type is not immediately clear.
Take advantage of batch processing and concurrent execution for handling multiple tasks efficiently.
Use the reliability check feature to ensure your SwarmRouter is properly configured before running tasks.
