SDK for interacting with LangGraph API

LangGraph Python SDK

This repository contains the Python SDK for interacting with the LangSmith Deployment REST API.

Quick Start

To get started with the Python SDK, install the package

pip install -U langgraph-sdk

You will need a running LangGraph API server. If you're running a server locally using langgraph-cli, SDK will automatically point at http://localhost:8123, otherwise you would need to specify the server URL when creating a client.

from langgraph_sdk import get_client

# If you're using a remote server, initialize the client with `get_client(url=REMOTE_URL)`
client = get_client()

# List all assistants
assistants = await client.assistants.search()

# We auto-create an assistant for each graph you register in config.
agent = assistants[0]

# Start a new thread
thread = await client.threads.create()

# Start a streaming run
input = {"messages": [{"role": "human", "content": "what's the weather in la"}]}
async for chunk in client.runs.stream(thread['thread_id'], agent['assistant_id'], input=input):
    print(chunk)

Known Limitations

• WebSocket transport requires websockets>=14 and is only available on the async client (AsyncThreadStream). The sync client (SyncThreadStream) uses SSE exclusively.
• thread.extensions[name] opens a new subscription each time the same name is accessed. Assign the projection to a variable and reuse it within a single session rather than re-indexing across multiple iterations.
• Sync streaming drives the lifecycle watcher in a background thread. Long-lived sync sessions will hold that thread open until the context manager exits.
• Reconnect attempts are limited to 5 by default for both the shared SSE fan-out and the lifecycle watcher. Persistent network partitions will surface as RuntimeError on in-flight projections.

Thread-Centric Streaming (v3)

client.threads.stream() returns a context manager that owns the SSE session for one thread. Typed projections — values snapshots, message streams, tool calls, custom events — all share the same underlying connection.

from langgraph_sdk import get_client
import asyncio

client = get_client()

async with client.threads.stream(
    thread_id="my-thread",
    assistant_id="agent",
) as thread:
    await thread.run.start(input={"messages": [{"role": "user", "content": "hi"}]})

    # Start all consumers concurrently so they share one SSE connection.
    async def get_messages():
        return [s async for s in thread.messages]

    async def get_tool_calls():
        return [c async for c in thread.tool_calls]

    messages, tool_calls = await asyncio.gather(get_messages(), get_tool_calls())

    for stream in messages:
        print(await stream.text)          # accumulated text

    final = await thread.output           # terminal state values
