Project description

Kalibr

Adaptive routing for AI agents. Kalibr learns which models work best for your tasks and routes automatically.

PyPI Python License

Installation

pip install kalibr

Quick Start

from kalibr import Router

router = Router(
    goal="extract_company",
    paths=["gpt-4o", "claude-sonnet-4-20250514"]
)

response = router.completion(
    messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Extract the company: Hi, I'm Sarah from Stripe."}]
)

router.report(success=True)

Kalibr picks the best model, makes the call, and learns from the outcome.

How It Works

  1. You define paths - models (and optionally tools/params) that can handle your task
  2. Kalibr picks - uses Thompson Sampling to balance exploration vs exploitation
  3. You report outcomes - tell Kalibr if it worked
  4. Kalibr learns - routes more traffic to what works

Paths

A path is a model + optional tools + optional params:

# Just models
paths = ["gpt-4o", "claude-sonnet-4-20250514", "gpt-4o-mini"]

# With tools
paths = [
    {"model": "gpt-4o", "tools": ["web_search"]},
    {"model": "claude-sonnet-4-20250514", "tools": ["web_search", "browser"]},
]

# With params
paths = [
    {"model": "gpt-4o", "params": {"temperature": 0.7}},
    {"model": "gpt-4o", "params": {"temperature": 0.2}},
]

Advanced Path Configuration

Routing Between Parameters

Kalibr can route between different parameter configurations of the same model:

from kalibr import Router

router = Router(
    goal="creative_writing",
    paths=[
        {"model": "gpt-4o", "params": {"temperature": 0.3}},
        {"model": "gpt-4o", "params": {"temperature": 0.9}},
        {"model": "claude-sonnet-4-20250514", "params": {"temperature": 0.7}}
    ]
)

response = router.completion(messages=[...])
router.report(success=True)

Each unique (model, params) combination is tracked separately. Kalibr learns which configuration works best for your specific goal.

Routing Between Tools

router = Router(
    goal="research_task",
    paths=[
        {"model": "gpt-4o", "tools": ["web_search"]},
        {"model": "gpt-4o", "tools": ["code_interpreter"]},
        {"model": "claude-sonnet-4-20250514"}
    ]
)

When to Use get_policy() Instead of Router

For most use cases, use Router. It handles provider dispatching and response conversion automatically.

Use get_policy() for advanced scenarios:

  • Integrating with frameworks like LangChain that wrap LLM calls
  • Custom retry logic or provider-specific features
  • Building tools that need fine-grained control
from kalibr import get_policy, report_outcome

policy = get_policy(goal="summarize")
model = policy["recommended_model"]

# You call the provider yourself
if model.startswith("gpt"):
    client = OpenAI()
    response = client.chat.completions.create(model=model, messages=[...])

report_outcome(trace_id=trace_id, goal="summarize", success=True)

Outcome Reporting

Automatic (with success_when)

router = Router(
    goal="summarize",
    paths=["gpt-4o", "claude-sonnet-4-20250514"],
    success_when=lambda output: len(output) > 100
)

response = router.completion(messages=[...])
# Outcome reported automatically based on success_when

Manual

router = Router(goal="book_meeting", paths=["gpt-4o", "claude-sonnet-4-20250514"])
response = router.completion(messages=[...])

meeting_created = check_calendar_api()
router.report(success=meeting_created)

LangChain Integration

pip install kalibr[langchain]
from kalibr import Router

router = Router(goal="summarize", paths=["gpt-4o", "claude-sonnet-4-20250514"])
llm = router.as_langchain()

chain = prompt | llm | parser

Auto-Instrumentation

Kalibr auto-instruments OpenAI, Anthropic, and Google SDKs on import:

import kalibr  # Must be first import
from openai import OpenAI

client = OpenAI()
response = client.chat.completions.create(model="gpt-4o", messages=[...])
# Traced automatically

Disable with KALIBR_AUTO_INSTRUMENT=false.

Low-Level API

For advanced use cases, you can use the intelligence API directly:

from kalibr import register_path, decide, report_outcome

# Register paths
register_path(goal="book_meeting", model_id="gpt-4o")
register_path(goal="book_meeting", model_id="claude-sonnet-4-20250514")

# Get routing decision
decision = decide(goal="book_meeting")
model = decision["model_id"]

# Make your own LLM call, then report
report_outcome(trace_id="...", goal="book_meeting", success=True)

Other Integrations

pip install kalibr[crewai]        # CrewAI
pip install kalibr[openai-agents] # OpenAI Agents SDK
pip install kalibr[langchain-all] # LangChain with all providers
