Master SmolAgents - Crash Course from Basics to Multi-Agents


Summary

The video introduces the Small Agents library by Hugging Face, emphasizing the creation of powerful agents using a mix of proprietary and open weight models. It showcases the compact size of the library, promoting efficiency with minimal abstractions and direct API calls. The use of Python interpreter for coding agent actions leads to more accurate and efficient outputs compared to traditional methods, allowing for effective multi-agent systems and workflow management. Additionally, viewers learn how to implement proprietary models like GBD4 and CLAE, access tools via API calls, and create custom tools with appropriate permissions and security measures. The video also demonstrates functions such as web search and tool interactions for tasks like accessing web pages, extracting information, and displaying content.


Introduction to Agents Library

Introduction to Small Agents library by Hugging Face, highlighting the ability to create powerful agents using both proprietary and open weight models.

Basic Features of Small Agents Library

Overview of the simple and small package size of Small Agents library, using minimal abstractions and direct API calls for efficiency.

Agent Actions and Python Interpreter

Explanation of how agent actions are coded using Python interpreter for more accurate and efficient outputs compared to traditional agent calling methods.

Agent Workflows Introduction

Discussion on the concept of agent workflows, detailing the use of agents for effective multi-agent systems and workflow management.

Implementation of Small Agents

Exploration of two main implementations: code implementation using code calls and tool calling for accessing APIs and selecting specific functions using Python interpreter.

Usage of Proprietary Models

Guide on using proprietary models like GBD4 and CLAE with Small Agents library, requiring installation of Light LLM and import of code agent for model access.

Tool Calling in Small Agents

Demonstration of using the tool calling feature to access tools available in Hugging Face through API calls and providing model IDs to code agents.

Custom Tools and Permissions

Explanation on creating custom tools for agents, setting permissions for tool usage, and restricting imports for security purposes.

Web Search and Tool Integration

Integration of web search functionality and tool interactions in agent actions, including accessing web pages, extracting information, and displaying contents.
