Grasp Agents Library

grasp_agents

Overview

grasp-agents is a modular Python framework for building agentic AI pipelines and applications. It provides reusable agent classes, message handling, LLM integration, memory, and orchestration utilities. The framework is designed for flexibility, composability, and clarity, enabling rapid prototyping and robust development of multi-agent systems.

Features

• Modular agent base classes
• Message and memory management
• LLM and tool orchestration
• Logging and usage tracking
• Extensible architecture

Quickstart & Installation Variants

Option 1: UV Package Manager Project

1. Prerequisites

Install the UV Package Manager:

curl -LsSf https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | sh

2. Create Project & Install Dependencies

mkdir my-test-uv-app
cd my-test-uv-app
uv init .

Create and activate a virtual environment:

uv venv
source .venv/bin/activate

Add and sync dependencies:

uv add grasp_agents
uv sync

3. Example Usage

Create a file, e.g., hello.py:

from grasp_agents.llm_agent import LLMAgent
from grasp_agents.base_agent import BaseAgentConfig

agent = LLMAgent(
    config=BaseAgentConfig(
        model="gpt-4o-mini",
        memory=None,  # or your memory implementation
    )
)

response = agent.run("Hello, agent!")
print(response)

Run your script:

python hello.py

---

Option 2: PIP-only (requirements.txt-based) Project

1. Create Project Folder

mkdir my-test-pip-app
cd my-test-pip-app

2. Install Python 3.11.9 (Recommended)

If using pyenv:

brew install pyenv
pyenv install 3.11.9
pyenv local 3.11.9

Open a new terminal after setting the Python version.

3. Create & Activate Virtual Environment

python -m venv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate

If you see ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'yaml', run:

pip install pyyaml

4. Install Grasp Agents SDK

If you have a requirements.txt:

pip install -r requirements.txt

Or install directly:

pip install grasp-agents

5. Example Usage

Create a file, e.g., hello.py, and use the same code as above.

6. Run the App

python hello.py

Development

To develop and test the library locally, follow these steps:

1. Install UV Package Manager

Make sure UV is installed on your system:

curl -LsSf https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | sh

2. Install Dependencies

Create a new virtual environment and install dependencies:

uv venv
source .venv/bin/activate
uv sync

3. Test Example

• Install the Jupyter Notebook extension for VS Code.
• Open src/grasp_agents/examples/notebooks/agents_demo.ipynb in VS Code.
• Ensure you have a .env file with your OpenAI and Google AI Studio API keys set (see .env.example).

You're now ready to run and experiment with the example notebook.
