Use within an agent

First, ensure you have LangGraph installed:

yarn add @langchain/langgraph

Then, instanciate your LLM to be used in the React agent:

Pick your chat model:

Install dependencies

yarn add @langchain/groq 

Add environment variables

GROQ_API_KEY=your-api-key

Instantiate the model

import { ChatGroq } from "@langchain/groq";

const llm = new ChatGroq({
model: "llama-3.3-70b-versatile",
temperature: 0
});
import { createReactAgent } from "@langchain/langgraph/prebuilt";

const agent = createReactAgent({ llm, tools });
const exampleQuery = "Who won F1 championship in 2022?";

const events = await agent.stream(
{ messages: [{ role: "user", content: exampleQuery }] },
{ streamMode: "values" }
);

for await (const event of events) {
const lastMsg = event.messages[event.messages.length - 1];
if (lastMsg.tool_calls?.length) {
console.dir(lastMsg.tool_calls, { depth: null });
} else if (lastMsg.content) {
console.log(lastMsg.content);
}
}
